Thank you both for the replies. Just trying to judge if /SCH or /RUN in any form would add additional damage to Holy bolts. Both questions were answered:

1. Rapture is 55.
2. Spell is needed to be cast.

Cheers

Out of pure curiousity..

If you have 31% gear haste and 5% slow, does the game put you at 26~% or 21~%?

If you're doing say...Glanzfaust and have all assaults done / eyepatch / wyrmseeker but 5/30k alex.

If you wanted to switch from Glanzfaust to say...Koga...would you need to toss the eyepatch / wyrm / assault books for Glanz, or can you use them for Koga? I suppose I'm asking how to unflag a mythic quest and flag another.

I'd imagine that slow is magical haste, not gear haste so gear haste would cap at 25.whatever and then the slow would kick in putting you at 20.whatever.

I believe I read before that the assault books have to be redone at the least.

That's what I thought...thanks. Soooooo how would you start a new one and abandon the one you're currently on?

if it's gear slow or atma slow, they should counter the gear haste each other but idk about magical slow

Should have specified that I meant 5% gear slow, as on Valhalla helm for example.

Better question would be:
Are haste and slow additive or multiplicative?

Delay = (1 - Haste% + Slow%)

vs

Delay = (1 - Haste%)*(1 + Slow%)

Hey,

Just wanted to ask a question about red proccing in Abyssea, I think I remember reading that it was possible for 1 job to do all procs, with the correct gear and merits, is that the case or did I remember incorrectly?

Also if that is the case would people mind letting me know job/gear/merits I will need.

Thanks

Ninja can do all but GS with only 3 merits.

You would to have the event item "Pitchfork" or "Pitchfork +1" for polearm, the scythe "Ark Scythe".

With 3 merits into Staff, a Nin/War can do Sunburst.

War/Sam could feasibly get Tachi: Koki with as little as a single merit if you had A lot of GK+ skill gear and the event item "Wooden Katana"..

War/Nin could do the above, for GK, with 7 merits, a lot of gk+ gear, and, of course, Woooden Katana.

War/Nin could also get Blade: Ei with 7 merits, Hope Torque, and Kanja Hachimaki, and the katana being Trainee Burin, naturally having every other red proc (key item/atma).

I thought NIN had to have 3 Staff skill items to hit the skill to use Sunburst?

Temp. Torque
Hakke Hachimaki
Aife's Annulet

Those 3

Taken from NIN Guide

Edit: Nvm guess this is wrong.

Not to say the guide is outdated, but that tidbit is probably outdated.

Nin99/war49 has 144 Staff skill. 3 merits makes that 150. It's also true though that a person could save the merits and get Temperance torque, or the other two items, which is more practical.

Wrong. Those are just the 3 items you can use to get the required 6 extra skill needed after WAR sub to hit 150 skill. (WAR gets 144 staff skill at 49).

Would stacking DA/TA/QA for weapon skillups speed up the process? Any testing done for that? I know having an OAT weapon helps.

Evasion vs. Evasion Skill. Is their a difference? I kinda assumed that Evasion Skill is better than evasion, but I don't know that it's true, or if it is just a stat that reflects in your totals versus one that does not.

Above 200 skill, Evasion skill = 0.9 Evasion

Don't you typically need rajas + tyrants to maintain builds anyways?

Which is better for what?

Elemental WS Gorgets

Jailer Torques?

I assume Gorgets are best for WS's, but do Torques still have their place? Just trying to decide if Bale Choker, or other things have outdone them.

elemental gorgets have their place where they're top tier depending on the weaponskill but are garbage for another. you're asking about resolution?

GS - Resolution
Scythe - Guillotine
Marksmanship - Last Stand, Wildfire
Dagger - Evisceration, Exenterator
