Experimental Fluid (peach)
People have suggested, albeit via eyeball test, that they get more cases/stones in Sortie when killing bosses with TH tagged.

10,300 EP at ML3 RDM. I didn't lose half my HP, only dropped to 2120/2185.
Got 2 more meats and they happened to be one day after another.
ML18 gave me 11300 EP ML19 gave me 11500 EP 200 EP per ML? Been bringing THF ever since it was discussed and still no drops~
Got to be over 40 clears now Offline

I got 13900 as a ML46, not sure how it's calculated, or just random from a base of 10000 EP Valefor.Prothescar said: » Got 2 more meats and they happened to be one day after another.

Hypothecially speaking, if one read the community reps post where it says "there was a test performed by your fellow adventurers in japan" and misreads it as "by your yellow adventurers in japan", would that make you racist or just dyslexic?
I once used a TP reset move and had the impression it took a little longer till they fired the next charm/animated move. Maybe worth testing subtle blow, maybe MNK roll and auspice if you have a second COR or a WHM as well as TP whipe/plague moves to see if it cuts down on TP move frequency. Sofar I've successfully farmed 2 impish boxes but went farming 3 times. The first two I got within maybe 30-50 minutes. For the third I farmed for almost 3 hours without luck but that time I went the same day I used my impish box for a run. Maybe your not just locked out of doing a second run but also receiving a impish box? Did someone test if corsair roll affects exemplar points gained? Offline

Apparently Stymie Sleepga is the easy mode for this fight. Offline

Another thing that was different to the previous 2 farming attempts was that I upgraded the steal set like the Pillager's Poulaines to +3 and added Barathrum... of course that had to cripple steal success.

Even if +steal is +1% success rate per point, that still allows for some wild swings in "time till box"...

If they had made the Impish Box a permanent login point item, this wouldn't even be a real problem.

But if they do add a handful of other battles in the same style in the same field then they won't. Actually had an instance of two people getting a meat not only on the same fight but the same mob (the 6th and final mob).
Didn't post here, but I got my drop in the early 60's on clears. I'd guess 61 or 62 clears, based solely on the amount of days since release minus about 5 or so days that I missed. Worse than most who posted their early success, but I'm sure many are worse off than me still chasing.
After maybe a dozen runs with THF I gave up on it, and opted to either not bother with TH, or run my RNG when jobs that joined my shout permitted it. Being able to put out the same damage as a COR, but also tag most of them with TH6 (if not all 6 of them) was more reasonable Asura.Dexprozius said: » but I'm sure many are worse off than me still chasing.

I'm happy to see people getting bodies/meat.
I mentioned to some folks yesterday that these flans are extremely easy to dispel with Daybreak (Dispelga). I don't know if taking away all of their stolen buffs has any impact on drop rates. However, in my opinion, this is a fun, easy, daily fight, enough mechanics to keep many jobs busy. In my group, the person who initiated the effort (and solo farmed boxes when the event was first introduced) is the one person who doesn't have the drop. That's personal drops for you...

So I finally got a third meat, and I had wanted to check to see what EP I got from the meat, so I went onto ML50 BLM and popped the first, traded in the meat for another fluid, and popped that immediately afterwards.
As such, there was no job change, gear change, only difference between the two was HP (due to the fluid taking 50% of current HP I went from 100% to 50% to 25% HP). Based off the previous pics here, I'd guess that the extra EP is random on top of the 10k. Also, I'd love to stop running this fight, but we still need two more armors after running daily since January... I forgot this fight even existed lol, I remember expecting this to be some sort of rotational fight like ambu with a different item you could get every couple months or so to actually keep people doing it. Boy was I wrong lol.
Thinking monthly, quickly turned into maybe quarterly, quickly became 6 months.... now turned into... yearly?

On which jobs and in which sets is it really best in slot and used?

It's an all jobs 20 DT/20mdb with high def/moderately high HP armor, slot it in
just for comparison, most of the ody/sortie bodies are 8~11 mdb, and their DTs top out at around 13% Offline

Classic big number but useless. It's exactly what someone who doesn't play would think is ridiculously good. So close to really good but missing one vital piece for any specific thing. Missing the key points that make an idle piece, missing basic haste or any form or attackcentric stat for a hybrid no enmity or retention. So all you have is a substandard substitute for pieces you don't have yet. Literally all it needed was basic haste, regen/refresh, or some stp/da and it would be phenomenal. (and higher meva, to match the better pieces) |
