I just got 2 Green Mog Pells on one of my mules. Has anyone else had this happen?

I feel like this could be an incredibly obvious question, but I haven't been able to locate the answer. Is there currently any meaningful difference between the available Unities?
I just got 2 Green Mog Pells on one of my mules. Has anyone else had this happen? I got 1 on one of my chars, 2 on another, and 0 on the other two (separate POL account, same SE account). Not sure why. :o

I have a random question here, what ranks are the coalitions across the servers? I was recently on Cerberus and everything was 8 except Mummer's which was 7.
Then the other day I moved to Asura and it's exactly the same, all 8 except Mummer's which is 7.
Do less people do Mummer's or is it possible it's a bug? If it could be a bug I was thinking of posting a bug report on the official forum but I don't want to do it if nothing is actually broken.

Cool, I guess I just pick the servers who abandon the Mummer's Coalition.

Anyone have any clue where the files used for the Equip. sets are kept? Since they aren't included with the macros and such when doing the Ctrl+Alt+Shift+B on the character choice screen... looking to try and back them up to avoid losing them after reinstalling windows on my desktop... and to try and transfer to my laptop also...

All are 8 on Odin.

On Sylph, Mummer's has been 7 for a while. I'm guessing they decrease over time, but I would wager that Mummer's has the least popular assignments, since most others are things you can do in either no time, or in conjunction with stuff you were already planning on doing.

Is the qaaxo mask ever worth upgrading for anything? For DA path, there are felistris mask and iuitl headgear +1 where applicable for 2 TA instead of 2 DA. For ACC+PDT path, there is lithelimb cap (which only leaves rng and pup out) and skirmish heads (although they are missing the acc). For STP path... I don't know if it ever finds any use. Maybe potentially useful for RUN?

Would be kinda boring if they just stayed at max rank all the time though wouldn't it. Considering the bonus you get from Ionis because of their rank.

Yeah, cause doing campaign is such a real thing too right? Obviously we don't give a ***about keeping them up... We never gave a ***about colonizing either, that's why reives have undergone what, SEVEN updates along with WKR and colonization rates?
If they drop over time, like it looks like they do, well, prepare to have level 1 everything except courier.
That sounds like a great system, right? The entirety of adoulin is fail.

That sounds like a great system, right? Exactly what will happen, I already did every assignment and now just do deliver: Kahmir 6 times, twice a week.
EDIT: Also for a company that is always so big on lore "We can't add GoV to Aht Urghan because it doesn't make sense with regards to the lore", they basically have it where we rank them all to 8 and then because people aren't doing their coalition assignments, the're going to knock down their bay roof...or whatever.

Is there an certain set-up to take to Skirmish to increase your chances of Wailing Stone +2's because I tend to spam 5-5-5 with a melee group and only managing to come up with Wailing Stone +1. Any suggestions how to increase box quality?

Its random.
Regarding to +1, +2, it isnt even a strict relationship. I already got lots of +2 with low rank ups, as well i got no +2 even with double 4 stars.

How do you go about increasing the stars is guess would be the better question then?

Random.
Using high tier simulacrum is the only relevant parameter to manuipulate.

You used to be able to join in the 50s... with ***acc. More safely the 60s so you could actually hit stuff.
You'll have trusts, so madrigal. I wouldn't go any lower than low/mid 60s.

I recently installed the windower plugin which on-the-fly translates any japanese appearing in the chat log.
It works pretty well, and I am able to understand most of the /yells
Anyway, most of them contains the translation "PUP" somewhere. Obviously, puppetmasters are not requiered in every /yell so i'm wondering if someone could tell what word/sentence is translated "PUP" everytime.

I always see PUP in these shouts and I don't have the translator so I think they are actually shouting for a PUP, from what I can tell, it always seems to be VW shouts.

You can exchange wings for armor. But you can't exchange armor for wings, if i'm not mistaking.

Look at the thread in the windower section.
PUP = Ka, as in "?"
WAR is the same characters as "Fight"
PUP (ka) is a character that indicates something is a question.

I don't know. I see PUP even in BC / Incursion yells. And most of the time it's appart from the actual job list.
