You can sum up the optimal way to play an R300 race in 2 ways:

(1) Get out in front and dictate chests.
(2) The vast majority of losses are due to meteor.


The Head Start / Dash III combo...

I have a P9 R300 (20 star) chocobo raised prior to the 2.55 patch (Head Start / Dash III combo). Some thoughts for those interested in what it's like at the end:

Before 2.55 the win rate on my...

this wasn't a troll post btw

The state of the prime healing class is incredibly relevant to how a PLD or any tank should manage his gear sets. WHM is horribly overpowered. A major reason damage mitigation is not really a huge...

If you are really interested in min/maxing a PLD build, I recommend starting by reading up on game mechanics. Once you have a thorough understanding of how each stat works, then you can make your...

BRD is 41.95 DPS. Beats current content.

dLVL = (mob lvl) - (player lvl)

the "d" in dLVL was meant to stand for delta, as in "the change in". Too difficult to find the little Greek triangle or I would use that instead. To call it a...

Quote is old and incorrect. INT beats MATK on all spells except tier1 and Holy. You need 530ish MACC after songs and food to go unresisted on Garuda (Hard). Best gear per slot should be fairly...

If I feel like gravity doesn't exist hard enough, the apple won't fall from the tree.

This goes back to a very old circular argument ever-present in XI.

Nothing in the world is black and white, and the same holds true for the MMO world as well. People have varied opinions;...

I think Valk and I are always happy to see others test. The stuff we've done is honestly very limited and is always subject to patch updates with or without SE stating anything changed. It is very...

Seiken doesn't even count trials when he tests. We use a different method of data collection for MIN and MAX. Most other testers just find some arbitrary trial # and use the average. We only...

I'd encourage you guys to look more into base damage testing. The stuff Valk and I did is very limited and from previous patches.

Regarding some of the "this takes no skill" responses, like others have said, this is not that easily performed. I was part of Miko's group and you indeed don't need triple melds, but just a really...

I think you're absolutely right here. It doesn't teleport during the 1:45 window you have to kill it in your "attack phase." This was the biggest issue for melee DD. I think if this is no longer...

Just copied the video + the info you gave Miko. Works great. Awaiting nerf :(

We actually tried this first night but failed like the others. The reason Legacy got it to work is because they...

There is a huge difference between the testing process (i.e. how Seiken Valk and I actually get the data and information) and what you see presented in our posts / LJ.

The best way I can put...

Strong work and congrats BG!

The only full block you can achieve since 1.19 is through Aegis Boon. Every other block in the game has to be a 'partial block'. Takes about 15 minutes of 'testing' (more like eyeballing) to figure...

The part about DEF and it mattering more on lower level mobs is actually not entirely accurate. To generally say that "DEF matters more on lower level mobs" is a fairly accurate statement; however...

Using Holy Abuse to 4 man 5 chest Darkhold.

Skip to 18:10 if you just want to see the Holy abuse.

The reason Holy does so well on some mobs (trash...

+18 INT gives +4.5 MATK, so when comparing the 2 rings, you are actually comparing...

Mage's Ring = +10.5 MATK
Zircon Ring +1 = +18 INT

When you compare these 2, Zircon Ring +1 should win on...

I will actually disagree about the ring question. I prefer double Zircon+1. Mage's ring will outperform Zircon +1 on Tier1 nukes (Stone, Aero, Blizzard, Thunder, Fire, Holy), but not any upper tier...

I did 23INT/22MND. I'm pretty sure if you polled every R50 THM/BLM that setup would be the most popular by a good margin.
