For those of you that visit Bg you already know the premise of this thread but for those that don't, it's simple.

Quote:
This thread is for off-the-cuff questions that don't merit a full topic to answer. 'What should I wear for my level 65 pup?' 'What's the best way to learn the Qutrub Blu spell?'

General Guidelines.

  • Any questions goes be it FFXI related or not this community has a plethora of people surely one will be able to assist you.

  • Please don't bash people for asking questions hating someone for seeking knowledge even if you deem it a stupid thing to ask makes you look like an even bigger tool.

  • If your answer is on the large side either providing a link or spoilering the answer might be a good idea to help reduce the thread size.

  • Have fun!

I agree with a thread like this, I made one for fishing and it brought out a lot of discussion. I will say that there are still a lot of threads created that only need a single answer, but I also think the discussion has been more open and people willing to ask small questions.

Due to Vorpal critting I'm fairly sure vorpal is the best choice, unless you'r using lots of mage atmas.

Also a thread like this is a pretty good idea :3

That makes sense well at least it's still good for things that are weak to magic.

Would have to see how well it compares to Sanguine Blade, which has the added bonus of reducing the need to spend time/MP curing yourself (MP not being as much of an issue in Abyssea).

If a galka was actually as strong as they appeared, how come they can't dual wield two 2-handed weapons

i believe we have a random question thread but it didnt last long. people stopped asking questions.

but i think you need to clarify what type of questions for this thread. cause the way it is, it seems like any topic for the question. is this a ffxi only question thread?

What does your average Sang blade do as far as dmg? Honestly I think I've only used it twice in a oh ***situation and it was only doing 750ish which for free hp isn't too bad. This was without a proper set though.

In Abyssea, as /RDM, around 1200-1300, with room to improve in my setup. Only real Atma I tend to use that helps with it is Minikin. It'll depend on mob level/family of course, and mostly I'm using it on fodder mobs to build Amber, so my perception may be skewed.

For the most part you can just macro your nuke set in and see good results. I'd just say to try it and see how it compares for you.

Question about Smn. Pigaches +2, Would 5% chance of getting +30 MAB beat a constant +5 MAB from augmented zenith pumps over time?

My guess is no?

.05 * 30 = 1.5

5 > 1.5

I'd say no.

Even if you're using Minikin in addition to RR and your second melee atma of choice, Vorpal and Requiescat should easily pull ahead of Sanguine. That's especially true if using /WAR, which should be... pretty much any time you're not cleaving (/RDM) or soloing NMs (/NIN). Damage vs healing potential should be more or less a wash if solo, depends on gear.
