I'm trying to quad box WoC. BG says T1 spam can lock out 1hrs. Is 3-4 characters subbing rdm going to be enough? It sounds like damage dealt does not matter, so could /RUN help too? Also would Heady Artifice triggered 1hrs lockout 1hrs as well? He's such a pain to pop, and I only have 3 so I don't wanna mess it up.
I'm planning on going PUP tank/GEO/Roll COR/SMN.
Alternatively I could Real COR/GEO/BRD/RUN.

3-4 characters is enough to win, but you'll have to be very highly geared with a solid plan and effective multiboxing. I believe there's a video of a crocea rdm soloing it that could be helpful.

So I'm at a quandary. My biggest barrier lately is Bahamut seems to be having a shortage of tanks, so I'm consdiering making one. I have 2 characters. My better geared character is a WHM thats halfway to a Yagrush and my 2nd account is a BRD with Gjallar/Daurdabla. If I can set the 2nd character up as a tank I can WHM for myself. But the 2nd account is missing key things like D Ring, so it'd be a lot easier to set up the tank on my main.

Curious what others would do in this situation. Leaning towards PLD for the alt and RUN for the main just because I have imprimaturs done for Epeo, but only gonna do one or the other. I'd be getting both shields for the alt if I do PLD.

Well, at this point in game, there is really no reason to not to have all jobs leveled, and eventually multiple masters.

If youre looking what tank to do, PLD or RUN, general consensus is that RUN currently has an advantage over PLD. But surely this is a matter of personal preference.

Also, probably you gonna want the BRD char available given trust BRD sucks while a well geared tank can make up with low curing needs. So, tank + BRD gonna be more useful in a long run than Tank + healer.

Anyone know why prices are crashing semi-hard lately?

At least on Asura, I can't say for other servers though.

No gils from Sparks finally starting to have impact?
No $ for gils, because of covid?

I don't think that's the case.

If I'm reading everything correctly, there is a large supply of mats now, and not the event mats like Vagary during campaign, but Omen mats and other stuff.

Even Kraken Clubs are selling for 100+ mil less than roughly 2-3 months ago.

While price oscillated up and low (and had different directions according to the specific type of item) I'd dare to say that since the Sparks/Accolades patch the majority of stuff has started to go down on Asura.

Again, it oscillates up and low, but the overall tendency is clearly towards going down.
Over the last 1-2 months it seems this process got a slight acceleration though.



I think there is a clear connection with the Sparks/Accolades patch.
With the other 2 exploits being fixed and with the amount of duped medals being finally over.
Add all these things together and I think it sorta makes sense people are less willing to spend gazilions of gil for anything.

But maybe there is another exploit running out there?

I just checked on several servers about beastmen and kindred medal markets, and noticed that weird named chars have been buying loads of those in a couple of servers.

Maybe RMT managed to build escutcheon chars? Or something more fishy going on

You might be right.

Honestly doesn't affect my gil-making process at all. My stuff are still selling at the prescribed rate and price.

Botting isn't fishy, it's an open secret.

Neither is RMT.

But I'm just curious as what the latest "exploit" is, if there is one.

The price of everything has dropped significantly lately.

Delve mats have been botted so much they're less than 1/2 the price they were last Delve campaign.

It's practically impossible to merc anything and make it worth your time now; RMT doing Ambuscade/WoC/Ou/Reisen/Aeonics/ 24/7.

Noticed the prices on +2 necks and the very few -1 pieces I still need have dropped pretty heavily.

Also noticed that there's barely any shouts to do content this month. Not many ambuscade/omen/dynamis pick-up shouts even on Asura.

Think everyone's getting broke/capped out on gear/tired of grinding mythics.

Hey, I am all for the Alexs being as cheap as they are.

I'm just 57 mil away from my next mythic now. Which is roughly halfway done on Alexs honestly.

If mythics are dropping to 120 mil, I'm all for it!

A year of no new gear, no (good) job upgrades, no new content, yeah everyone should be bored and <taking a break.> so goods are on a downward trend.

A person can only (be satisfied) salvage omen odyssey dyna ambuscade gil grinding for so long.

I was kinda thinking that. My BRD also has GEO and COR mastered. and I have master BST/PUP on my main, i'm just not finding those fit into parties.

If you are talking in a context of joining both chars with others real players, i would not recomend doing healing + anything else given how focus you need on healing duties, while with BRD/GEO you can just drop buffs and afk.

Thats more reason to keeping the buff chars as its.

Prices are dropping due to a mix of reasons.

1) Botting over time * numerous bots

2) People are still managing to exploit HQs.

3) People are capped on gear / content, leading to repeat the same crap and fill the AH with cheaper materials / excess of them because there’s nothing else to do.

4) The big one - Sparks patch.

The in game economy is going through a correction much like when the stock market is riding high.

The biggest issue coming for us all is the lack of content. People say this game will never die but I don’t buy that ***at all.

Sure, November is going to have an update that’s supposedly supposed to be juicy - beside the popular appreciation campaigns. Shoel D? Brand new battle content? Who knows.

Here’s to hoping that the “final” 20th anniversary content that’s promised to us - and still not coming for another year and a half - is something on the scale of Abyssea or Escha and will tie the game over for a few more final years. That’ll please the player base / elites / casuals / RMT.

We just have to get there.

I do think it will continue, all we need is something like Escha or Abyssea to keep us going another few years along with job updates and random small stuff like HTB. Something on that scale is needed because the content drought is really rough right now.

They are probably still pulling in decent numbers and I'm sure they plan to sell the new storage space for 2~3 dollars so everyone with their 6+ mules can buy it and feed money to the game.

I only saw the one mention of WoC ignoring pup hate, but I wasn't sure if it was a confirmed thing or not. My main 4 jobs are well geared, and if pup can tank, the biggest threat is surviving Mijjin Gakure. I saw the RDM solo and he seemed to proc with en-spells even prior to equipping Crocea, I just wanted to be sure if the amount of damage is irrelevant or not.

I'm wondering if they've replaced the Mog Tablets with pumpkins or something. I couldn't find anything in Windy Waters, or N Sandy.

9 pumpkin furnishings?

Looking at Kouryu and Warder of Courage. Are these infeasible to do without very specific job setups or an alliance? My little group is relatively narrow still in geared jobs. Don't need much from them but would like a drop or two.

Nope, any good enough cp party can do it. Nothing special about them.

May need second tank to hold kouryu adds.

WoC pops are a pain to build so do research and make sure your party can counter whatever WoC throws at you. if it takes that long to build a pop its soul crushing to see it going to waste.
