I wouldn't call an increased matter droprate 0 incentive though. Even if it's small. For all we know it's 2% increase per NM and if we kill 0 NMs then we have no chance at a matter at all. (Basing off the estimate of 40% drop the last few weeks)

There is still zero incentive to kill them.

@Meliora I can't say much as I log off before JP midnight when they spawn and I haven't had time to do Limbus the last 2 weeks to see if any are unkilled, but I have seen a late night JP shouter forming an alliance to hunt them on bahamut

@Dodik I disagree, if the personal reward is good enough, there are absolutely going to be people who make it a point to kill all 44 NMs. If it's not enough then still no one is going to bother. And public consensus already seems to point towards the matter drop rate isn't reward enough.
|

|

Yes that's been my assumption as well, once killed they won't respawn until next month. I wouldn't call Shiva is a busy server but we've been able to kill them fast enough. Can't even imagine how its like on Asura, Odin and Bahamut.

Very popular in Europe too.
As is Muji, another Japanese brand.
Sadly Muji went enshittified, at least in Portugal and Spain. New stores sell mostly overpriced generic synthetic crap, the cool stuff they had a decade ago is all gone.

Quoting on mobile is annoying.
60k ep would be crazy, there's a reason we can only do 1 pinkies per day. Imagine being able to do pinkies 8 times a day for a week.
|

Is this a per NM reward or a one type participation per month reward?
Because if it's per NM, then that's x22 for the people who play on spawn time, 220k EP and 66k units. Pretty hefty monthly bonus

/DRG is the best, imho, because of the WSD boost and also the situational utilities of jumps.
/SAM is situational, /WAR is very generic and works. I prefer /DRG but /WAR ain't that bad.

I keep hearing about personal rewards or better incentive to killing the NMs, but I want to ask, how would you balance that without unintentionally creating negative fomo for all the people who physically cannot attend due to work/school/life times vs the people who are around/work from home/don't work at all who can witch hunt all the NMs at jst midnight when they spawn all at once? At the very very very least they should drop a large amount of EP and a small amount of Units.
10k EP? 3k Units?
And a chance for a zone-related Matter.
This would affect only people who took part and/or are in zone at the moment it's killed.
Which is a bit of a kick in the bollux for people who took part earlier but then went away, but given how the reward is so small and generic I doubt a lot of people would "feel" like they're missing out big.
It wouldn't be a big incentive of course, and it doesn't need to be, but it would be at least "something". The fact they don't even give EP a mob of their ilevel would give is beyond preposterous, if you ask me.

So I/my group/many people don’t run the addon (yet?!?) is there a way to update the data on website?
- Phoenix ??? Is apo SW3, display as 2 atm, this is a new one as we spawn it yesterday, it shown the previous one but timestamp show recent.
- Also, we took down 2 NM, and would like to mark them.
So is there an option or that was ruled out because of saboteurs?

So I suppose, congrats you, 40 yo nerd who behaves like a bad kid in the forum.
Today is your day (at least in Brasil)!

Development follow-up.
I've rewritten a large part of all components and will deploy it later today or tomorrow Monday.
I'm happy to report that it will be more automated now and tested with and without Superwarp (I've gotten reports some part of the old version wouldn't behave as expected in certain scenarios).
It will automatically detect the NM from afar, where I got some ideas from https://codeberg.org/svanheulen/limbus
It will also update the backend automatically if a second scan no longer detect a NM/??? but are still active in the database and mark them expired - This require more testing but we ran out of NMs on Shiva... Lol
I've tried to retain as much as possible so it will be backward compatible but an addon update will be required long-term.
I'll make another update when everything is live and you will notice when loading the addon since it will run a version check on load.
Thank you for all feedback and patience.

Vanilla users often (not always) forego having precast/midcast sets, and just cram some fastcast in their midcast sets. This goes especially for spell with already natural low casting times.
Sure, but when you have 50% FC on a single piece of gear, like this exact situation right here...that seems really dumb?
Here's a free gift:
/equip main Hvergelmir
/equip body "Melinic Jubbah"
/equip feet "Merlinic Crackows"
/ma "Cure iv" <t>
/equipset yourcuresetnumber <wait 1>
/equipset youridlesetnumber
There, you have (at least) 72% FC even with no subjob, plus light arts, can use full potency, only spend 1 second in your cure potency set (the least amount possible), and are back in your idle set right away, all in one macro.
If you're putting Hvergelmir in your midcast cure sets, you're doing it very, very wrong.

Trying to figure out the new limbus NM works now?
- Is everyone screw for the month?
- Is it last week that count?
- Does it reasses the count every week like before but reset at the end of the month (or update)?
- What is everyone point of view?
So far, on Phoenix, 2 weeks ago all NM got kill and had about a 50% drop, last week barely any NM got kill and it’s totally trash, like sub 10 if not 5. After the monthly update, no difference to that trash drop, can say later after the Sunday “reset”.

That's an impressive update. Great job everyone at Windower team.

Ukonvasara - I have awesome memories with this weapon, starting from completely dominating Abyssea with it, then Voidwatch, making it 99lv seconds after the update that made it possible and finally playing with my favorite white damage builds in current times. Also Galka Ukko's Fury animation is just amazing.
Verethranga - Pretty much the same story as Ukonvasara, but while I prefer MNK theme much more than WAR, I can't forget that Veret is only Empy weapon gutted from being able to proc aftermath on all hits or at least all hits with one hand.
Apocalypse - Imo it's by far the best-designed weapon in FFXI (spoiler: alongside Tizona). It looks the best, it has the best looking/sounding WS, it fits the job lore the most, it has great utility and was by far the highest dps at some point. Ofc it's now overpassed by Foenaria in some aspects (still missing JA haste and gold>black :P), but Foenaria it's just an upgraded idea.
Tizona - Same arguments as for Apocalypse, except Expiacion doesn't look as cool as Catastrophe, but it aged much better not being overpassed by anything.

of course you wont understand the strugges of non lua/gearswap users.
I can't tell if this is double irony, or if you're double dense. My question remains though:
Wut?
Do you mean FC sets, or are you genuinely putting Hvergelmir in your cure sets? Regardless of gearswap or not, you should never cast a cure in a Hvergelmir.

There's also a meme amongst the JP communities that malig gear is "Uniqlo gear", I don't really know how to explain it so can try to Google to understand it.
To anyone wondering:
Uniqlo is a famous casual clothing brand here in Japan known for affordable, high quality basics (think plain tees, jeans, and hoodies that everyone owns multiples of). A majority of the population probably owns or has owned a Uniqlo shirt or pants. So just as Uniqlo clothes are ubiquitous, comfortable, and no fuss wardrobe staples that get the job done without being luxurious, Malig gear is basically the vanilla, mass market option in Vana'diel.

They still have not added the way to get that black subligar, it's been over a year since they added it. Ashen Subligar. We will never forget, teased us with our new undies and didn't add it in! I'm hoping they remember to put it in the Halloween event this year but they've said they're adding a couple more of the new Ilm pieces there so we'll have to see...
YES! I stand with the cause. Never forget.
