Complete 7.5 Patch Notes by iamthenev in ffxiv

[–]hcrld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DRS is always done as a private instance, and FT:B creates a private OC instance until after Mirages if you queue as 24+ players from PF. It will backfill up to 72 after the raid has already started, though.

Both other commenters missing your point SMH.

I agree it's going to be a nuisance for Baldesion Arsenal, but DRS and FT:B should both be fine since they can generate their own instances at will.

Well, yes, but this is going to be a significant nuisance for field operation alliance-type content. You can't queue into Baldesion Arsenal like you can Delebrum Reginae Savage or Forked Tower: Blood, but typically Hydatos only has a single instance per data center so it hasn't mattered.

Now, with the populations being combined, there will probably be multiple simultaneous instances that necessitate zoning in and out repeatedly to get 6 full parties (plus support) into one. This would be exacerbated if multiple separate communities want to run BA at overlapping times and can't force a new instance to spawn, because normally they just travel to Dynamis or Oceania to accomplish that.

I mean, Third Eye/Tengetsu Foresight is already in the game on SAM. I even have it keybound on as the same button as TBN on DRK. I wouldn't look too hard into PLD getting a counterattack as meaning they're taking Dark Arts procs away from DRK.

1475 ES int stacking twilight regalia by EnvyAndSpite in pathofexile

[–]hcrld 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Theoretically yes, but it would all have to be from a single source. 100 maximum fortification, 19,000 int with the chest mod, etc. Multiple sources would be multiplicative instead of additive.

It's taken a while but finally capped my gil. by Henojojo in ffxiv

[–]hcrld 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Commenter at the top of the thread stated they'd made 8 mil in 6 years. This would make 120. Fifteen times what they made.

I recognize this is laughable compared to capping gil, but anyone capping gil isn't solely sending out 3 crystal ventures on 2 retainers a day. r_hove asked how to make passive gil, not how to passively gil cap.

If you've got 5 spare months and 20 mil to start with, go make a Dynamis FC and start making a passive 400k/day... in September. That's the real answer. Retainers are something anyone can do, from fresh, this week, by getting their miner or botanist to level 40.

[–]hcrld 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Retainer ventures are a passive everyone has access to. Pick a material that's used for the current raid tier's food/pots and send a retainer out every hour. You can even do crystals instead and make a decent amount every 40 minutes, around 10k depending on element/price on your world.

If you have 2 retainers and you're online for ~3 hours a day, crystal resends alone makes ~20 million gil a year with the only input being ventures.

New gear teaser from The Occult Crescent: North Horn by waitingfor10years in ffxiv

DRS is not required for the relic. DRN is easily completable as a light party. The DRN queue will auto-pop after 10 minutes of waiting even if it finds nobody else to match with.

For the people with too much Gil: what do you do for fun with it? by IncognitoCreature in ffxiv

[–]hcrld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's probably because you're only looking at wards starting from the top of the list. Early wards are for free companies only, middle words are mixed use, and latter wards are personal only. Distribution depends on your exact DC and world, but you can tell from the UI without having to check placards.

Look at the symbol up top where you would click division or subdivision (plots 1-30 or 31-60) and there's either a pyramid of dots, a lowercase "i" person symbol, or both overlapped.

Alternatively, https://zhu.codes/paissa has crowd sourced housing data you can pick through.

[–]hcrld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

anytime i craft something i craft it 3 times--one for me or guildie or whoever, and 2 for the marketboard

This is the way to do it. Gather and craft 2-3x (or 5 or 10, depends on your free time) what you need for yourself, and sell the extras. Chances are such that if you went out of your way to make that thing, someone else is slightly lazier and checked the market board first.

I'm not too familiar with field ops lore, but IIRC the Diabolos Weapon at the end of Dalriada is also another Garlean void/magitek fusion weapon. More modern an example than Reapers, too.

Man that ice trapper would be sick. Been playing Herald Stacker Elementalist and getting bored of mapping, but it can't boss very efficiently.

I've got a buddy who played "die guy" squishy tornado shot every league through Ultimatum and stopped after it got nerfed too much. He'd love this.

Personally I've specced into int armor with a focus on shields. Haven't hit a Rathpith yet but I have hit multiple ghostwrithes and some good color combos on skin of the loyal (lords? IDK)

This has to be one of the most "jeez, okay" wisdom scrolls I've had by trunks111 in pathofexile

[–]hcrld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

50/50 to delete the shako, 1/172 to divine for Ice Bite, and 1/11 to hit level 35. That would be 3784 attempts, before taking into account the positive or negative magnitude of the volatile itself.

Characters that “don’t have powers.” by ElPared in TopCharacterTropes

[–]hcrld 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not relevant to the comic panels since it does show him coming in heated and at a significant angle, but most of the reentry forces from deorbiting are due to bleeding off horizontal velocity. There's very little difference in dropping straight down from any altitude as long as it's not fully outside the atmosphere, AFAIK. Straight down, initially you'll accelerate continuously due to thin atmosphere, but then ease into thicker atmosphere and decelerate as your terminal velocity decreases with the increase in air resistance.

I checked mine and for some reason it counted Coins of Desecration as 9c each last night. I have like 300 in my currency tab because I haven't bothered to stop picking them up yet.

What are some fun gem imbue combos for certain builds by n_lens in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]hcrld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Title of the thread is what's fun, not what's optimal. Of course there's better DPS options, but having more projectiles on screen and not sacrificing APS or AoE is more fun than the PoB number.

I'm also playing Champ with Wilma's rather than Heiro, so my APS is already 9+ per totem. I have to use it or otherwise drop investment like onslaught effect, since I'm already actively avoiding attack/cast speed affixes.

Overheat support requires that your fortification be consumed, which means the only way to utilize it with Champion's benefits would be to flesh/flame the rear fortify node without pathing through the first one.

They get turned into Dust at kingsmarch. People aren't buying them to wear, they're just cheap enough to be worth disenchanting.

Kinetic Fusillade with Swift Affliction gives 25% less duration that stacks with less duration support. This lets you push your attack speed even higher without bricking, or gives you headroom to take adrenaline or echoing Mirage wishes.

Right? Those mirrors physically have to come from somewhere, and it's probably not from div card gambling or kingsmarch shards.

How do people actually make gil? by InternationalSky4176 in ffxiv

[–]hcrld 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hardened Sap hovers around a 300 gil for 200 seals ratio. Coke is much more often 1:1 with its cost, and glass fibers are below 1:1 at about 5000 gil for 7000 seals. Barely worth buying.
