If I bought the SoA ultimate seekers collection could I use it on my old account or would I have to make a new one? I have all except the last Abyssea collection.

Anyone know which Walks give sacks of devious dice?

Is it the same ones that drop singles? or do they only come from the later ones?

So sometimes I'm logged in on the train on mobile internet and the connection can lag occasionally.

If this happens just as I'm about to craft something, it can lock my character in place and I can't use JAs or gear swap or even log out.

Anyone seen this? Or know a way out of it when it happens.

Is there a low man set up for killing Arch Omega, possibly something including an apoc drk as tank?

Looking for a similar answer except would NIN BLM WHM (possibly a 2nd WHM, SCH or BRD) be possible? All pretty well geared.

Ive done it as aegis pld and had no problems tanking untill it got in a lucky pile pitch while I was wsing (rancor collar). Had 2 whms, war, mnk, sam, sch and a brd DDs went down in the first 25% hp so after that they were just running in to ws. The sam was pulling the orbs away before they exploded. An apoc drk might be able to tank.it in a hybrid DT set but a pld is a lot better.

I'm deciding to be lazy and not read today. Doing some research for timers~

Whats the duration on Indi spells? Is it fixed, variable, formula for calculating, etc?

How does overwriting BRD songs work with Emp, is it always the one with the least time remaining thats overwritten or is it based on the theoretical max duration based on the gear used when cast?

In my experience it's always the oldest song that gets overwritten but I only play my gf's brd when once in a blue moon.

There is something affects it but idk for sure how it works although I'd guess it has to do with the instrument (making it irrelevant for relics). I just remember trying to give plds double ballad and one ballad over writing the other rather than the second song.

Geo spells are a fixed duration atm though, I want to say 5 minutes but not 100% sure.

From what I remember its the duration so in terms of a ghorn and empy harp brd you would stick up 2 songs with ghorn then stick up a hymnus or regen song with the harp then they would be overwritten by 1-2 more ghorn songs. Dont quote me on that though as my brd is only a mule and doesnt have relic/emp.

Didn't try it since update, but apoc drk/war was fine to tank and kill it.

Detzu what other members were necessary for that? My gf has 99 apoc, just need to fill in the other slots with xxx jobs & give it a try i guess.

Thanks for your reply.

Today I would say a brd + a sch/rdm for phalanx. Can also bring another DD to speed up first 25% (muramasemaru Sam would be nice).

Does anyone actually have the Holy Bolt Damage calculator?

Why does Guglielmo's Bow (only RNG can use) have Magic Accuracy attached to it?

Cheers

Somewhat complicated question, or at least, one with expected subjective answers, but:

I bought my wife a copy of Adoulin Collector's Edition (for Xbox, like she wanted, ugh) and I'm trying to decide if there might be anything better than just xping a lvl 1 job to 20 to give her a taste for how the game works. I'll be duoing with her, and she'll be playing my alt...I'm just trying to think of anything that would be *fun* without requiring too much knowledge of the game. I know smashing bees in South Gustaberg will be easy to handle, and I know Voidwatch will be too much...any suggestions for something in between that might be a little more fun than low-lvl grind?

Fest of swords might be fun to do together and that is up/going up I think. Being a seasonal event I'm not sue if that is what you would be looking for though.

I'd recommend Abyssea. Things like EXP/Cruor chains and lights should be light enough to pick up quickly and give her an idea of what the game's like (at least in part). You'd even be able to go around NM's and go over the proc system (which would set up for Dyna and VW without much explanation).

Does /SCH and using Rapture add additional damage to the RUN light-based attacks? What about Holy Bolts? From the guides I read people post that it increases Banish but hace people confirmed these other methods of light damage?

Since it only works when you cast a spell, the answer is no for both Run and Holy Bolts. It works on cures though.
