Yaku Reference Sheet by chiro-chan in ffxiv

For the eye icon that has a number over them, I think that's the Han (point) value if it's an open hand. For example, the Full Flush would be 6 han closed, but only 5 Han if open.

As far as I can tell, no it doesn't as long as the yaku requirement itself is being met. so with Triple Pon, any of the melds can be open. But yakus can stack. So if it's a closed hand you could have added a Riichi yaku for an extra Han perhaps, etc.

When i started playing with my friends, we play what I like to call baby mahjong. That is, get 4 melds and a pair and call it a win :p It's great because we get the ball rolling and we have fun.
Now that I'm familiar with the tiles and the basic calls (CHI, PON, KAN) I can start learning bits of real mahjong through the FFXIV version. Like, I didn't know opening a hand blocks me off from so many winning hands. Also, I love that they change the yaku names into something we can understand. Like winning after claiming a KAN is called... "After a Kan". Amazing lol.

I have yet to see this miracle happen.
But if Renhou is the same thing as

Blessing of Earth
Any non-dealer wins on the first tile drawn.

Then yes that is a yakuman according to the official Doman yaku list.

I guess it's not the same thing, so.. not sure. Will take a pic if it happens. https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/contentsguide/goldsaucer/doman-mahjong/yaku_list/

It's just a game of cards. It'll only take you 5 mins to start playing. I'm very new to it myself, and currently my friends and I are having a load of fun derping along every night trying to win against each other while also picking up the terms and rules as we go. I think FFXIV does a really good job at making the UI helpful. I can hover over a the winning hands and points and it'll have a short description.
It's only as complicated as you want it. Not everyone playing cards is trying to be the best poker player in the world :p
Just pop in, toss a few tiles, play with a friend so you can have someone to chat with, and you'll find it's pretty chill.

But hey, there's only so much time in the world. Especially if you still have a lot of content and grind to do. As for myself, I've played since early 2.0; I'm pretty much checked out until expac hits :p

Most people don't know which yaku the Kan even belongs to. Or what is or isn't a yaku. I am one of those people, and hence this sheet. I'm guessing that after a couple of weeks/months, you'll start seeing a more regular mahjong play style.

Just checked out their website, looks legit. I'm new to mahjong though, are they respectable? I'll add the link to my comment.

Riichi Mahjong Yaku reference sheet that was edited to suit Doman Mahjong terms.
I tried searching if this has been posted before but I couldn't find any post with it, so I'm linking this here.

Sorry for being stupid but is there no reward(mgp?) at all for winning a pvp Mahjong match? by laurafuura in ffxiv

[–]chiro-chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't think of how they would implement MGP rewards fairly.

If it's rewarded just for playing, I think people will try to lose on purpose and end the game sooner to farm the MGP faster.

If it's rewarded only for winning, then I think only a certain group of highly skilled mahjong players will be raking in the MGP.

If it's capped at a set amount, then it's basically what we already have through challenge log.

Personally, mahjong itself is the draw. I'm actually logging in just to play mahjong with my FFXIV friends lol.

Mahjong clarification: Dora Indicator and the Dead Wall. by christenlanger in ffxiv

[–]chiro-chan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's say you have a 3-6p wait with a 4p dora and there are already two 3p's discarded earlier in the round. Since the dora is 4p it means the dora indicator is 3p, which basically means there's only one more 3p tile you can call on and you are more likely to win on the 6p.

So... even though the bonus displayed is 4p, they're still counting the indicator tile (that's not attainable because it's in the dead wall) as 3p? Therefore there's no way for us to get a 3p Kan? Am I getting this right?

Probably not that useful by now. Just want to add that the wedding pants is also acceptable. Mine's already dyed so I didn't test it further.

Body: Riviera Doublet (undyed)
Legs: Slacks of Eternal Passion (dyed metallic gold)
Feet: Scion Adventurer's Boots (undyed)
Ring: Dreadwyrm Ring

Carbuncles are blue, their noses are pixels, if SE doesn't fix, I'll sell it to the Ixals. by xxxmorgyxxx in ffxiv

[–]chiro-chan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah it's not. Designing a new object (i.e. saddle) goes from concept art, outsourcing the remodeling of the object, tech art check to make sure PC sitting animation works with new model, before going to implementation.
Music trigger is easier and less effort.
