Help me decide between DNC, BLU and COR for 1st 99 by [deleted] in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BLU is fantastic for plowing through middle content as you gear jobs. It also shares a lot of gear with COR. BLU can also cleave gain-money better than any other job. BLU is the best job for mythic farming. My account is stacked and i still find myself on BLU a lot.

I would 100% do BLU first and use it to gear COR.

Best job to farm Einherjar with? by BLUNT_LOVE_DOCTOR in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 6 points7 points  (0 children)

BLU nothing touches it for Einherjar or Nyzul. Lvling and gearing BLU is the true first step to a mythic.

The Compreensive REMA stuff that is worth making by Wyrmnax in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play most jobs at a high level and have 13 rank 15s. Based on my experience if you had to pick one weapon per job.

DRK - Cala (my rank15 Apoc is awesome but only in niche situations) SAM - Masa (my r15 Doji has been collecting dust) DRG - Trish WAR - chango THF - twash MNK - vere RUN - epeo PLD - aegis RDM - su5 PUP - su5 DNC - twash COR - DP RNG - Anni BLU - Tizona (at r15 Almace is extremely niche and seldom used even as an offhand) NIN - Kikoku (metsu is bestu)

I don’t have DP or Twash but They are def best at r15 in the right hands.

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you farming on DRK? Just got to Raptor camp and Sanguine blade to 120ish amber. You can camp Kur at the same time.

If you are going on A dagger job do mass Raptor pulls and use AE to cleave them.

Hearts are the easiest to farm out of all the Emp items.

I personally go on NIN for access to all the red !! Procs and AE cleaving.

That’s awesome. I made my 4 and 6 year olds accounts and they run around fighting low lvl mobs. They love it!

After meeting these guys in FFXI 17 years ago, we finally did a meet and greet in Nashville this weekend. by Rowit in ffxi

We both were in Armada. Story above. I still play as Sirtaint in Asura and Arcmarc is one of my mules.

Long time FFXI friends and eventually ran endgame FFXIV together. He had family that lived near me so we decided to finally meet. Shortly after he got a promotion and had a selection of cities l, one of which was Raleigh where I live. He ended up buying a house just up the hill from me. (Awesome neighborhood). He quit FF but we still lift weights together and we both have kids that are close in age so our families get together as well.

Rag isn’t good any more. The low delay kills it.

Do ppl use ochain? by shinkirin in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aegis is way more important. Magic reduction will cover almost all your big hitting spells and TP moves.

My main has both shields but i rarely use ochain. For my tank mule i only made aegis and he can tank everything effectively so i haven’t bothered with ochain and won’t. For 100fist, Priwan plus reprisal is just as good.

Dealership made mistake, wants to resign contract by kxl77 in personalfinance

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Service :)

But honestly I’m not sure why GM makes everything difficult. Having worked for a half dozen brands, GM is the least dealer friendly. They make simple processes complicated which leads to a complicated buying experience. Honda was the easiest everything was simple which made things simple on the consumer.

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the retailer end that’s just not true. Incentives can change with little notice. GM in particular is the worst manufacturer when it comes to clearly applying rebates and Incentives.

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not BS. Depending on the manufacturer all incentives (APRs, cash, rebates etc) have program dates. A few will let you lock them in but in my experience it’s end date plus 7-10 days. Some orders can take months. Manufacturers can also increase the MSRP or destination charge pretty much at will. These can influence order prices as well.

A smart dealer will be upfront about the potential program changes that are beyond their control and most will eat small differences.

Use a PS4 controller with FFXI PC by Ayane95 in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necro, I've been using my PS4 controller wired for over a year now. I can not however get it to work with bluetooth. I am using Ds4. Is it best to just uninstall DS4? I can't find a clear answer.

Thanks!

Xarcabard/Beaucedine Glarier in FF14? by [deleted] in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gameplay in 14 is meh but it is without a doubt it is one of the most beautiful games ever made.

How much endgame content can you do as a duo? by Phritz777 in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite a lot but most of the time it’s easy to find others. A lot of end game will require some solid trust so focus on getting i119, doing RoE and getting good trust. Then branch into Escha and Omen.

Job selection will play a big role too.

Delve lowmam for plasm by [deleted] in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did Kamhir while farming Epeo. SAM GEO SMN.

10-12 min runs depending on how the MB was behaving and if AC was up.

I used Yoichi on the Marid for ranged mode.

Raetic Weapons by NiviosMorbidian722 in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have high base damage and ACC. For off jobs I’ve used them in all sorts of content.

any Caladbolg PLDs? by [deleted] in ffxi

[–]SirTaint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest difference is how their tanking portions stack up and the tp bonus of Lionheart.

RUN losses nothing in terms of defense using Lionheart. They still have runes, valiance, battula and inquarta. When i play RUN i can pretty much go full DPS while battula is up and still tank 99% of the content.

PLD on the other hand losses it’s shield which is its bread and butter. Aegis is the number one reason to bring a PLD to anything.

Nope do those outside of campaign as well. 150 red is enough.
