[Oni]

does 1,000 needles.. fought him twice and got the drop in 2nd try

[xShagratx]

awesome, whats the exact stats on those boots?

[Thark601]

i got a whm friend that i do stuff with all the time...

I know i'm not close yet but what lvl would WHM/BLM, and MNK/WAR have to be to solo this thing?

Subbing NIN for Utsusemi:Ichi is a possibility

[Chapel]

Bring a PT atleast do reduce 1000 needle damage, having just 2 people means 500 dmg from needles. He isn't that hard a PT of 60 can take him easily I would say.

I would just wait until Dune Boots. :spin:

Hmm... I always thought it was some kind of hoax that people made up to sell these pitiful looking shoes. I mean, all it has is below-average DEF. So how much Kick Attack+??? does it add?

[Darez]

Someone else posted the hidden stats in another thread. Check it out yourself.

I bought Wulong Shoes to experiment myself. Normally my Kick does half of each of my fist damage. With Wulong Shoes equipped, my kicks often deal about 10 more dmg than each fist, sometimes about equal. As far as I see, it doesn't increase the chance that we'll kick more.

I decided I didn't want to spend 1M gils just to increase my kick dmg a little... so I sold them back. :spin:

Hoax?

Dune Boots are Rare/Ex, so if it's fake, Square is batshit.

Speaking of the Dune Boots, it's THAT NM that does 10k Needles.
I hope you have a crapload of friends. ><;


Edit: On a side note...

Taoist, that is the eighth most asininely nihilistic thing I have heard in my entire life.

[trax]

The nm of dune boots doesn't do 10k needles i fought it once and got the drop, however you need at least 12 lvl70+ to stand a chance

[sourjirou]

Wait, my vocabulary consists of 982 words and the words asininely or nihilistic aren't in it; in fact more than 3/4 of my vocabulary are one syllable. But I did make some sort of top ten chart so /congratulations to me. Maybe if you can add the part of speech and definition, that would be great!

So the Wulong shoes and Kung Fu add Kick attack DMG and not chance of kick? Hmm. Not that useful then, imo. But then again... extra damage never hurts but it sure does hurt your pocket. Dune boots are Rare/Ex so... no where in the near future I'll be getting one.

I can only assume that is sarcasm, so I'll respond this way.

I don't care how you feel, what you said was as stated.
Don't agree, fine, but it can not be disputed.

If you're serious, it's called a dictionary and there are a shit-load of them on the web.

[Taoist]

No really it wasn't sarcasm; I rarely use sarcasm as a form of humor because it lacks taste. I much rather prefer satire. Dictionary.com does not work for me right now and I am too poor to afford text.
