Check file permissions for the FFXI install directory. Try to force take ownership for yourself and admin. It could be failing to write to disk. Maybe FFXI loads macros from disk each time you zone

I say that but it doesn't match my experience. Usually if I //terminate instead of /shutdown then my macro changes don't save.

Haha, Good one...you can sit next to me at the dinner table tonight. :P

(This is an alt, but I do appreciate your sense of humor)

Yeah I should’ve specified if anyone has been able to get a DM augment beyond 4% on Colada.

Capitalism is like PUGB or King of the Hill. Kill people, take their loot, upgrade your weapons to kill better and die with the most loot. Except that this only applies to the winner. The rest of the people would die early and go watch YouTube or something. You get paid to show up to make somebody get a lot of loot.

Socialism is like team work. You are as fast the dead last in your team. So every team is dead last. The Russian realized that if you give a good team leader a gun, he will shoot the laziest guy in the team and ended up with a VERY motivated team afterwards. For a while. Until they get new blood. Then the commissar is back!

After playing boss with a small business for a while. I realized the holy truth of the average worker. Essentially, only about a handful of people are getting the good pay and promotion simply because they can do the work of 2-3 people and always seem to be available for everything you need. Everyone else are expendable. If you aren't the memorable superstar, you are another cog in the machine and you can get replaced very quickly.

I doubt they would think this through enough to pull it off, but a ??? Case +2 that pops the earring for job you're on currently would be so much better. Add it to the trove ITG pool so that it's so incredibly rare to begin with, but at least you take the randomness out of it by forcing the job.

Why limit it to just the case? Just bloat the pool with base +1/+2 earrings, no augments. That's 44 "new" items right there and keeps you going to sortie to get the actually good, augmented earrings

This prophecy has happened before and will happen again.

And on that day I will still be happy, since AFAIK I have no reason to want a COR one, PLD will be a fun one to have, and WAR will be when I'm meta-slaving away.

One day in the future, you'll get a +2 DRG earring with a very mid roll and be thrilled about it. Then three out of your next four +2 earrings will also be DRG and have worse augments than the first +2 you got.

Got a RL friend of mine who has a +2 DRG earring. Min roll, but I only have a mid roll+1. I say it doesn't bother me, but in the back of my head I am jealous because I want a +2 for my favourite class. And at the time he didn't even have it unlocked!

I saw a scrub idling in a perfect +2 earring for one of my favorite jobs. He was successful in making me salty, even though I normally don't /check people (he was a party member). The random reward system is one of the most disappointing things in this game.

Well you have to use the case(binding the earring to your character in the process) to see what it is. It's not like you could actually sell a perfect earring to someone, so I'm not actually sure what your point is.

My point was essentially that a +1 case isn't a reward.

Thrud/Moonshade is probably your standard pairing. @3000 effective TP, swap Moonshade for R15 Lugra +1. I'm sure there's a condition where Thrud/Lugra +1 is better pre eff 3000TP, but TP Bonus +250 is so good in general, and the two options seem so close that I don't think it's a huge difference in either case. It would also vary a lot on a variety of factors (Savagery/Crystal Blessing/Attack Cap/Accuracy needs/Nighttime/Unity Bonus etc). Seems overly complicated for a few points of non-guaranteed, ultra situational potential DPS

Mostly wondering for Fimbulvetr with Utu Grip.

Grip makes it a 60% STR 10% DEX 60% VIT WS from how I understand stuff like Utu/Crep knife/Flametongue.

/yell Old case +2 - {Palbrough Mines} 999M OBO /tell

Well the point of ITG is to reward players with desirable items. I'm not sure a consumable that rewards ~5k gil 99% of the time belongs here. +2 maybe.

Once you have ML50 all jobs, the game knows there's nothing else to do or cast on, so it deletes macros.
You've beaten the game.

The JP community gets the extra bonus.

No sir it dosent. Thank you for your wisdom. It still looses in damage however unless your amnesiaed. I'll stand by my comment.

I think I miscounted because the login campaign starts BEFORE JP midnight. So you could double-dip Nov 11 if you zone between midnight PST and 7am PST

What do we think the minimum time commitment is for logging in to all 16 characters
Assisted vs unassisted

This is fine if you're making a physical thing someone is buying, but if you make something intangible and then expect people to support it that's not going to happen. If you have that mindset almost everything that has ever been made for XI would not exist, including fan art. Windower was made for free and they are very good at that, same for Ashita. Same for almost every addon.

A lot of amazing things were made for free, cause people did it for their communities. Heck there is a Domain Invasion website, someone is paying the hosting fees on for free.

The expectation that you will get anything out of a singular Old Case +1 other than a junk earring to sell to an NPC is nothing but pure hopium.

For completely new endgame players who have no earrings at all, I can see the desire. But if they only have one or two jobs, they are very unlikely to get an earring for a job they play, much less an earring which also has good augments for a job they play.

For endgame veterans who have been running Sortie for years at this point, they probably already have a plethora of +1 earrings for every job. So at this point, all you are rolling for is a +2 earring, which is a roughly ~2% chance.

If we are forgetting how ***Sortie earring acquisition and augment rolls are, see some old posts.

I agree it is a freebie that requires absolutely no effort to obtain, but one earring per month per character is not something to get excited about. There are far better rewards that could have come from Login Campaigns than this.

1900. 14 days, then the 15th day, then 7 days. Nov. 11 - 24 inclusive, Nov. 25, Nov. 26 - Dec. 2 inclusive. Calendar math makes my head hurt, I had to freakin' diagram it and you all were spared that only by merit of table wrangling being too much work.

700 points before the bonus. 700 points after the bonus. 700 points to carry over. Why isn't the bonus 700 points too?

So can someone math the min and max without carry over points of data needed to login?
Acceptable missed days is what I am looking for.

Its now 50 points per login?
Then 100 per login after 16 logins?

So a minimum of 18 logins?

Is my math right that we can hit 3k without carry over?


There is ~21 days with 1-2 of those being challenging?

So you can potentially miss 2-3 days?
