What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

No need, they can already cast Faith! Though it'll still be harder to land on an enemy with low Faith =P

First of all, that was my point.

Nerds.

Also, FFT.

Speaking of FFT, found an FFT hacking community. A bunch of people ported over the War of the Lions translation to the PSX version. I'm applying my own patch on top of the translation to undo all of the easymode changes that were made to the US release (lower requirements to unlock jobs, lower requirements for job levels, reduced JP costs for some abilities, and Summoner being overpowered.) Joy!

I noticed some sprite editing tools too. I wonder if I can hack some ponies into the game.

Peeve... reiterated.

People who go into Dynamis and refuse to listen and Tachi: fuckin' Fudo all the mobs before they are proc'd. Also... you came /WAR... thanks... oh you afk'd in a bad spot and died... you didn't have RR up? ... well, good luck with that, stupid.

My pet peeve: Orison Cape. Rather, the amount of time I spent killing Mangy-tailed Marvin to get the damn thing. Then, SE releases a cape with more cure potency that isn't WHM exclusive. I LOVE that I can have a cure potency back piece for all of my mage jobs. I just hate that I wasted so much time on acquiring the Orison cape.

FF Hacktics
All of the major hacks are under Community > Projects
Final Fantasy Tactics: Complete

I'm hacking the values using FFT Patcher Suite 0.478 (go to Downloads > Miscellaneous). Here's an incomplete version of my patch (which you can edit with FFT Patcher.) First apply the FFT Complete patch to a clean ISO with PPF-O-Matic as described in the FFT Complete thread, then you can apply my patch with FFT Patcher. PPF-O-Matic requires a clean ISO to work, FFTPatcher doesn't.

WotL/JP PSX changes implemented:
* Elmdor has Safeguard (no Genji steal)
* Rafa/Malak's skills and Reis's Holy Breath do 10 hits instead of 6
* Increased JP required for job levels
* Increased job levels required to unlock jobs
* Reduced Summon damage
* Increased casting time of certain spells, including all Summons
* Increased JP cost to buy some abilities (incomplete)
* EDIT: Forgot to add, reduced Ramza's Squire job's stat multipliers

The stats on the Ability lists are accurate, but the ones in the ability descriptions are out of date, and so are the unlock requirements in the job descriptions, because that's static text. I'll have to change that later with some program I've seen mentioned called TacText.

It's possible to recreate the extra scenes in WotL but I don't know how much work that'd be.

I also know people have replaced the intro movie with the WotL one before but I don't know if all the other cutscenes can be added.

The pet peeve is probably beat to death already but what the hay.

Aby-burned Whms not in aby…

Did a low man dynamis run two nights ago with 2 meless and a whm. I’ll admit I’m no superb whm but I like to think I can at least hold my own, especially since I did a lot of smn/whm curing back in the day. So I suggested the whm go /rdm instead of /blm for refresh (and convert). I knew before we even entered there was going to be MP issues, so I thought maybe this will help.

I’m not sure how many of you are familiar with Dyn-Valk…but there are SO MANY spots you can safely run to. It’s way different from any of the cities. This whm died twice because sneak wore off in the middle of camps. Honestly you can get to half these TEs w/o snk/invs. Luckily he did have RR on both times though.

On one of the TEs, it used a stomp move that did about 200-300 damage to everyone. I was at about 900/1200 ish HP and BAM cure VI. Then BAM cure V on the other guy, followed by BAM again VI on himself…not a good sign.

So, were moving on and now the whm is low on MP. What do YOU do in this situation? Rest? Convert? Not this guy. He just goes off the refresh he gets from his gear, which was like…+2/tic. He started spamming cure II and cure III when he could. Finally I said “were all white HPs. We don’t need to be 100%. Stop curing and rest for mp.”

After a while I actually noticed his refresh was ~2mp/tic. I waited about 10 minutes to see if he did anything about it and finally said…’maybe you should cast refresh on yourself, that’s why I suggested /rdm”.

And soon after the whm was out of mp and we were actually in a bind from a big pull (Whm spamming cure I and II). I finally said “try using convert…see what happens”

That’s how the whole run went. Me reminding the whm to rest, refresh and convert. My smn has about +30 hMP gear from back in the 75 days. This whm had a dark staff only. He like didn’t know what to do with out his +15-20 refresh from atmas…

By the end of that run, we ended up with a little over 100 coins. 100 ish coins with 3 people. That’s very sad.
I went solo last night as Bst/dnc and came out with 175.

Whelp.... That's what Abyy does to players.

Meh... there has ALWAYS been players like that playing jobs. You can go back in this very thread and find the same bitching about LOLibri players, campaign players, and SMN burn players.
