Buburimboo

Ixtab
Gargantua

A lot of potential (as I posted my general views here, so I won't copy pasta/restate anything here), but a lot of fluff as well.

Par for the course as usual, SE.

That's just rediculous.
Considering how we don't know how many ampoules you get per kill now (as it's now on a per-kill rather than a per-chamber basis, apparently), your math is almost certainly off.

I think it could be a fun challange, although I'd hope you could do it in a group ^^

Some Einherjar item cost 100k token.....

They better up the token limit or it will take forever, and if that is the case, Omega Ring not too far off :)
#261Deadgye, Posted: Jun 09 2008 at 3:02 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) This better be hard to get. I'm close to skadi body and it would suck to see everybody running around in a skadi body -1 within the next month. :/

This is actually kinda cool. Like the monster hunter side quest from FFXII. Many of these nms are hardly camped anymore so this is probably just there way of giving them a use without it being an item drop.


Also, don't rememeber the item but Haubergeon for Blue Mage! 5str 5dex 10 attack 10 accuracy! That is pretty boss.

Blaaah I did read that wrong about the Ixion's cloak... some reason I was thinking that was a cape.

Grrr.

They need to add more Refresh items than just body pieces...

We could get 24% via Crimson Cuisses and Skadi's Jambeaux already... so where's that extra 12% from?


They don't stack.

Not to take away from the coolness of many of these new items... but has anyone looked at the Zilart Relic .dats to see if anything has changed?

I love the idea of this quest. Hunting NMs for sport- not items- sounds incredibly refreshing. The only one that sounds particularly troublesome is Ixtab, and that just means you're forced to party up with some friends or fellow hunters. Considering how unwanted most of the drop items are, there won't be much animosity if someone gets a dropped item and someone else doesn't. It's all just for the thrill of the hunt, and no competition involved!

Hachiryu Haramaki (Armor seen in POL Picture)
DEF: 52 Accuracy +20 Att+20
Critical Hitrate +5%
Enhances Zanshin Effect
Set: Enhances Store TP Effect
WAR, MNK, RNG, SAM, NIN
Lv 75


IIRC, "enhances {Job Trait}" gives that job trait to whatever % it would enhance it normally. The only exception I'm aware of is the Suppanomimi. So I believe if it like enhances Zanshin by 1%, then even a MNK would have a 1% Zanshin chance. I forget though unfortunately.

Edit: Like the Tatami Shield.

TY I been going through the post and I can't believe no one until now has said anything about those 3 (clubs?) Looks like a MAB club, a Mag Acc+ club, and 1 that is a little of both. Those new mage shields are looking ok with these!!! Oh and can you see all the MAGE/nin now. Imagine a blm/nin with the MAB+25 main hand and the MAB+10/MAcc+10 off hand.
#271REDACTED, Posted: Jun 09 2008 at 6:20 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) You way too late, you cant DW: Dorje with Antares ( +10 mab and +10 macc. )

Hmmm Balrahn's Eye Patch. 100k item at Einherjar. Maybe for upgrading relics?

the 100k ampule balrahn's eyepatch most likely is used for upgrading the new relics. Reason being is that 100k ampoules is alot and would take a long time to obtain, and number 2, when the info on the new relic weapons was released, the entire article was pertaining to Balrahn and how they were his "Myriad arms".

Also, a small but relevant detail:

One of the quests for the relics enumerates the stuff you need as such
Quote:
Alexandrite, Wyrmseeker Areuhat,
assault memoires, holy relics...
A multitude of paths lay open
before you.


Then the description of Balrahn's Eyepatch says
Quote:
It is regarded as a sacred relic throughout the empire of Aht Uhrgan.


My guess is they're the same relic.

I didn't see it posted here yet, but it looks like you must be on a Lv.75 job to get offered this quest. I was on my NIN (Lv.73) and the NPC said I was "too green for his liking" and asked if I had any stronger friends.

Changed to PUP and talked to him again, and got the quest.
