THF and DNC

[Rambus]

I play with real people.

I do not play only with people who are coldly logical, completely rational, and entirely lacking emotion. They do not spend their play time running numbers through multiple spreadsheets to see if and exactly how TH works. They don't need formulas and numbers to know it works. THFs would never leave their Mog Houses on the job if TH was truly broken, and I sure don't see people rushing to do things like Dynamis or farm Empyrean Weapon items without a THF.

No, the 'problem' isn't logical - it's cultural. Friends tend to tease one another in jest, and in FFXI, TH is one gigantic target. That's what we're trying to communicate to you. Our friends know that it's random, they know that it does work, and when it doesn't, we THFs know that our friends will tease us. Sure, it's all in good fun, but it can and does get to us over the course of a few years. To some degree, we all grow somewhat cynical about our 'Placebo' since we don't have any real control over it, and because we can't control it, it falls 'victim' to superstition and perceptions of luck.

That's just reality. We THFs bring it up and tend to joke about it since every single one of us has experienced the exact same thing to one degree or another. For us, it's just a part of talking shop.

yep, most are like that ^. I was trying to make such a replay but I could not find the words for it. eek where you there or remember when i would ask to go thf cuz i claimed tarutaru th was the best? maybe i only did that in my dyna shell there, i can't remember

TaruTaru TH is only the best when it requires a Sacrifice.

Bump for thief and dancer lovin'

Also, I'm not too fussed about Subtle blow on thief, as much as I am about the general TP dealt to a mob. TP delt is TP recieved per hit +3. That means that a 6hit 2-hander will give the mob 118TP in the time it takes him to get 100%TP and a 20hit dualwielder will give the mob 160TP in the time it takes him to get 100% TP. That's a little unfair and pointless. Should just make TP delt = TP recieved so all jobs generate the same enemy TP gained.

I still sacrifice taru's. I feed one taru to my moogle each time I really need something to drop. I spent 3 days in vunkerl inlet trying to farm Mavi basmak solo but forgot to sacrifice a taru. Yesterday I tossed my moogle a taru before heading out and not only did I solo a good run for TE's but got my Mavi basmak too 
