I've used hundreds of orbs since trove was released and never once got an orb back when trading back to NPC. Should consider yourself lucky to even get one, some have not.

Allrighty.
Nynja do you have the Kupower or not?
And what's the estimate conversion rate you noticed?
I recorded a bit less than 10% on the release month on a sample of a bit over 150 Mars Orbs. (No Kupower, didn't exist)
Today I'm at 76 Mars Orbs + some from Deeds, so probably around 80ish (Kupower on)
I could add I've never seen a single Mars Orb refresh in the time in-between these two tests, but I didn't track how many orbs I popped so I can't really give numbers. The majority of them were with kupower though. Basically I had kupower on since the day it was released (which was some months after they created the Orb refresh feature though)
I dunno, the sample is pretty small I'd argue... Maybe not completely irrelevant, but very small nonetheless.
So yeah, looks like Bias then?

Nynja do you have the Kupower or not? I set it every time I trade Orbs back to the NPC.

I wanted to buy the 0 accolodates weapon from Besiege, but it says my rank is too low. I have a Captain rank, can you somehow raise it in Besieged?

Is farming the nyzul campaign a better source of pulse weapons than farming behemoth in zi'tah?

I personally have not found NNI as a reliable source of pulse weapons. You might get one every 100 or so ??? items? Idk, it seemed quite rare when I did it. I think NNI is good for getting a small amount of Tokens PLUS a chance at something rare, but I was able to see a Pulse from the Behemoth within like 20-25 fights or so. They are fast, so if you are only after the pulse, I think the Behemoth is faster, but you could get lucky either way.

NNI is just the option for people who can't clear T3 efficiently or can't find help or don't have VW access.
The AMAN Trove campaign is probably the best way to get a weapon right now. You're on the popular server and they're probably cheap these days so it might be a better use of your time to farm for gil and just buy the weapon from a shout.

Vido -10
Shattersoul -10
Swooping frenzy -25
Pestilent Plume -25

Pestilent plume from Acuex Familiar/Fluffy Bredo. There's a magian path of non i-lvl weapons that can also inflict it.

Gotta make sure those darn mages dont get too powerful you know, but yeah there's very little of it compared to def down being available for almost everyone in some form or another

Is there an addon - or a vanilla setting - to filter the "RoE progress / RoE complete you get accolades" messages?

Is the FFXI logo meant to resemble Blueblade Fell the way the characters behind the logo are positioned? I would be certain if it wasn't mirrored from the angle of Blueblade we normally see

So I mentioned this in the update thread but has anybody noticed getting skill-ups on subjob-only skills (e.g. ninjutsu skill-ups on cor/nin)?
By Dodik 2024-11-17 13:58:03
Yes, I have. All magic skills only from sub job seem to skillup when used on main job.

Is a non-SMN Blood Pact Ability Delay -# set practical nowadays for anything? If so, what jobs would you say are best to have a set like this on (MNK, RUN/PLD? RDM/WHM/GEO)? I vaguely remember someone mentioning having a set for like PLD for an ambuscade or something similar, but don't recall the specifics.
Also, how much Blood Pact Ability Delay - can non-summoner wear? Is it still -15 seconds, or halved (rounded) since it is subbed? Super min-maxing for sure, but curious since DM campaign is on and I see something unusually high that might be worth keeping around just in case I need to sub /SMN for mew or whatever.
By Kaffy 2024-11-18 10:44:02
It was pld/smn for qutrub ambuscade holding the adds. If you have the inventory space and desire I say go for it, that's the beauty of this game. Dunno how much use you'd really get out of it though.

I have the Mnejing's Receiver KI and I'm not getting Besieged announcements. What am I overlooking? I'm guessing it's something filtered out in chat settings, and I use battlemod - anyone know which settings to change so I get the message?
And please let me know if there's something else I'm not aware of like an NPC to talk to (I tried the Imperial Whitegate and the Automaton laboratory, nothing), or that it only works in specific zones.

I just got "Word has been received of a Mamool Ja threat in the Wajaom Woodlands." message today so...not broken for me FWIW. Obviously no battlemod.
I think there are places it doesn't work but I'm not sure which...maybe MH...? I could swear I've missed messages on one character and seen them on the other.

How does SU5 weapons path A and B work with dual wielding? I suppose the 50% chance for double damage or follow up attack are limited to main hand only but what about the STP and subtle blow? Do those also count for the sub slot?

All augments are MH only.

Is it still 8 though, they were specific about being unsent at 9
Could also be tribe specific, they didn't say which one was attacking. Or server specific, also didn't say that.

None of the augment stats work in the offhand, you only get the base non augment stats of the weapon while it's in your offhand.

Though maybe you mean if wearing A/B in MH does the OH get the augments in which case yes. STP from MH counts for OH swings, ditto SB.
By Shichishito 2024-11-20 17:11:28
I got that the augments only work in main hand but when you equip it in main hand, will the store TP and subtle blow part of the augments also affect hits of the off hand or main hand only?
It would seem extremly random to exclude the off hand store tp and in particular subtle blow stats.
*edit*
NVM, got the answer.
