Not saying I've killed Glavoid often, but can't say I've seen people proc yellow on him. He doesn't really drop anything related to it. Usually proc red or blue on him for KI/shells. Yaguarigyu isnt much better sadly. He uses two TP moves in a row and during that time, any damage cures him, he absorbs to much and then PDs. Easy NM but can be slow when people are not paying attention.Quote:

Or, at least when send tell to person shouting, should warn them that skills are not up to stat.

03-23-2011, 10:57 PMNvrNo, you are just mocking someone with a similar sig and think it's funny. You just want attention on the BG forums and that's all. We're not stupd enough to believe that you cannot think of anything better. News flash, you're not required to even have a sig.Quote:

There are plenty of players posting stupid things that aren't from BG.
Also, Buzzflies only have about 5000ish HP, so posting a 5000+ damage Drakes on them isn't that bad. Drakesbane's max potential is much higher than Victory Smite. It's just a matter of luck and repetition on NMs with Attack food and Stalwart's until you hit a high one. -

I think that their point is, unless it's an amazing out-of-this-world damage total in your picture you just look very silly posting it. His damage is in a fairly normal range and is nothing spectacular.
-
03-23-2011, 11:32 PMTearValerinI beg to differ. Ukko's Fury is considered one of the best Empyrean ws in the game currently, look at this collective ws screenset: http://img209.imageshack.us/f/22789456.png/Quote:

03-23-2011, 11:35 PMHFX7686
Well, perhaps I just don't mingle enough with the general populace then. I see damage in the 6000-7000 range from the people in my Abyssea group all the time, all different jobs and weapons.

03-23-2011, 11:37 PMTearValerinWith what? 6-7k is nowhere near regular, those are incredibly lucky hits.Quote:

First off, Drakesbane isn't at a disadvantage because it's a Mythic WS. It's the strongest WS in the game just looking at the mods and weapon type that can use it.
To compare Drakesbane and Ukko's:
Drakesbane - Crits, 50% STR, 4 base fTP, 133 base damage weapon
Ukko's Fury - Crits, 60% STR, 3 base fTP, 131 base damage weapon
I'm guessing that you need to start buying Red Curry Buns to go with your relic. Maximum damage potential with Gungnir and Drakesbane should be over 9000 on a piercing neutral target. -
03-23-2011, 11:39 PMHFX7686Really? My group must be incredibly lucky then! They get that all the time. They're incredibly well geared though, so I suppose that helps. Beats me, I don't play melee jobs generally.Quote:

I understand proc spells are expensive nowadays because no one really farms them and they are mandatory for seal ptys, but people can either take the time to farm those spells they need to farm the gil to buy the spells they need just like back in the old days. If a spell costs you about 500k on AH, then maybe join a cruor pty or even an exp pty if you can't find a cruor build pty and get yourself about 200-300k cruor and even that can be turned into 500k or more gil. I really don't think it will take you more than 6 hours in one day to do this and in the end it'll be worth it.
If you're too lazy to do the above mentioned then perhaps it's time for you to lvl another job like a thf or something where you don't need to spend a lot of gil on mandatory spells. -
03-23-2011, 11:42 PMTearValerinUkko's has a potential to hit 11k-12k with perfect pdif rolls, set bonus activations, etc as well provide perfect conditions, though the chances of it occuring are about 0.825%.Quote:

Drakesbane can break 9000 with 2 Triple Attacks and 8 crits (.016% chance) and good pDIF rolls, but only if you're fighting monsters with that much HP. Also, your odds of a max damage Ukko's are higher than reality.Quote:

03-23-2011, 11:49 PMTearValerinMy signature's been changed, if you havent noticed, to something with 50% piercing resistance.Quote:

Why do you obsessively take pictures of your damage?

Mict takes somewhere between 200 and 300% physical damage while casting. Corses in general are 50% resistant to piercing, but it has always been hard for me to tell if Mict is because of his massive damage taken boost. Assuming it's 200% and 50% though, he has balanced out to +/- 0 and there's no modifier.
-
03-23-2011, 11:59 PMVincThe name is likely blurred out because he fears people finding his Xiah, which in most likely scenario will be cluttered with gear sets that are far from optimal. Just as well, in the event he does not have Gungnir, he loses that platform for arguing with people.Quote:

There's one registered Gungnir holder on Asura: Olfar. That said, I know ffxiah doesn't pick up everyone.
-
03-24-2011, 12:10 AMVincIf your intentions are to not be held accountable for your words, it might be beneficial to remove your signature. If you do indeed have Gungnir, locating you out of the plethora of Gungnir owners would prove a shallow task for anyone. If you are confident in your sets, then you must know that anonymity only serves as a detriment to your points.Quote:

It makes it look like you are unwilling to back up your argument simply because some people might call you names.
You're going to get called names just because you refuse to back up your argument.
May as well put it all out there instead of trying to hide. It would make you appear genuine. -
03-24-2011, 12:18 AMNvr
What I don't understand is, your original sig way much less dmg than your new one, and you believed your new sig to be vs a mob that took 50% less dmg. Why on earth did you not choose this one originally? I simply don't think it is you doing the dmg.
You already posted This Link
So this shows you are already adept at finding screens of other peoples dmg photos. -
03-24-2011, 12:22 AMTearValerinIts the most active thread on FFXIAH's war board, it isn't that hard to find when its the first link there. And Corses do have a 50% resistance to piercing, anyone with eyes can see that on ffxiclopedia. No lie there. I chose the most readily available pic on my photobucket, and when GG decided to play around with me, I searched through screens for higher than my original, your point?Quote:

Why would the name be blurred out if its your damage ? I am not getting this whole thing. But anyways back on topic- I have to agree with this thread, I have run into too many leeched blus lately that want invites to stuff that dont even have basic spells, let alone yellow proc spells. They want everyone to hand them +2 items when they are doing nothing for the group. The remove member button and I are becoming very good friends lately.Basically it boils down to, if you can't proc yellow on an abyssea nm run for seals/stones/cards etc you are useless. Please don't waste my time or yours.
