Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Murphie HQ's posts. I like how that sounds. Could you craft a paragraph that makes complete sense so I can give it to that Vapors guy?

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I just caught up with all of this, and I don't have much to say that hasn't already been said apart from one thing.

i have 325 enfeebling i beleive with capped merits and gear, and i still think i have trouble enfeebling sometimes. usually gods though, but alot easier then when i first started. trust me whms are good yes, but they cannot keep up with a rdm who never needs to rest that can convert every 7 min with 968 mp

Bullcrap - max vert is 8.20. That is an extra 100 seconds more on your convert timer. And do I get a cookie for beating you with 339 Enfeebling magic?

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Outside of kings and lolskygods what would you need 300+ enfeebling skill on? I do quite fine in exp burn parties with 276 and a 120 mnd. Paralyze procs a lot, and if I have to stick an enfeeble I can sub blm and use ES.

But I love how someone who doesn't even show thier character info trying to tell an entire forum that whm can keep up. Best party I every had was right after Nyzul opened and no one knew how to get there. 41k/hr camped in middle, cleared the floor, pulled form below and above when mobs wondered close enough. Highest chain was 300 something. 2 ridill wars, bb mnk, whm, 2x manteel brds. Did I mention no rdm?

I'm betting Vapors doesn't even have rdm to 75, you'd think someone as good as him at the job would know his merits, I know the merits for my mains.

Tbh, I don't use the enfeeb skill outside endgame events - for meripo, Duelist's Chapeau and maybe Warlock's Tabard is more than enough (tend to use Duelist's tabard as I like the fast cast, plus it looks better with Zenith - yes, sue me for being shallow), as I tend to main heal, and my poor Elvaan mp is served far more by my mp set (with does include enough mnd to nicely cope).

I want a 7 min convert timer - can I have please?

Peeve:

Seriously, something needs to be done about storage >.>

Im running 57-58/60 constantly (now add 1 to that for the grip). Im not even fully geared up.

Do I have to GIMP myself in order to comply with space now???

Fine I can mule stuff, but my macroes dont run back to my MH to fetch things for me -.-

EDIT: I dont believe an extra 10 (or even 20) spaces would hurt even the lolPS2. Just think, the temp items we get in Beseiged. They get "added" on top and I doubt that is even nearing the PS2 limit (if that really is why they havent done something about it)

2 pages dedicated to that guy? Good god people.

I agree, we need running macros.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I dont see a problem with space, being a DRG, I have all my gear plus grip carry my af helm and feet, along with the carapace head/body/hands, and 2x hi potion 2x hi ether 12 anitidote 12 eye/echo drops MP ring and earring for swapping and still have 15 slots left for picking up stuff.

I know that some people swap out more equipment that most people, but god, lay off it alittle, just because you cant swap ONE thing does not make you "omg gimp"

I'm going to stick my fingers in my gears and go lalalalalalala - and don't complain when you get thundaga III'ed by something because a rdm left that one piece of gear that could have helped him land silence in his MH (Wind staff for instance), because hey, it doesn't make him gimp!

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Most of my gear problems come from crafting leftovers. I can have 6 or so slots free once I can move them off somewhere.

8 slots when I forget INT Rings.

And there's probably a bunch of gear I should have.

Actually I probably have more free slots because of gear I should have but don't.

That is situational. And I am a perfectionist when it comes to making sure my gear is at it's maxium efficiency for the spell I am casting. And why the hell not?

So yes, in my mind, if I have to drop 1 thing, I am gimping myself.

Mages(and consumable based jobs I guess) get screwed in this aspect I think. What (non-ranged)melee has to carry around a 8 weapons to be "average"?

EDIT: and yes, good point Kirst
EDIT 2: and thus point number 2, I get screwed on KS drops becuase I never have any fudging space for it to drop into!

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

It all balances out tho hong people who don't consume are the same jobs that had harder times getting parties etc. To be fair tho you don't need a full set of ele staffs on rdm if you dont nuke.

[Kirsteena]

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I've been known to carry a full set of ele staffs on whm before now...

Actually whm is the job that carries least gear - I have my basic enfeeb gear, mp gear, mnd gear and enhancing gear, and the rest stays no matter what. I tend to run 45/60 on whm, compared to 52+ on the two others.
