and the oat effect, while still not great at least daken still occurs, if nerfed.
Maybe I'm misreading this, but how is Daken nerfed? It should get the full benefit of STP? (Or are you saying the OAT effect is nerfed)

Flat heavy -dt is also not really a good way to do content scaling
Honestly that's probably the best way they could of gone tbh, if you cant raise the dmg cap, make it harder to hit the cap without increasing the amount of buffs/debuffs, also means you dont have to bloat the HP even more.
Bigger issue is limbus was just weak from the onset, which is a shame considering they spent a few months closing it off, revamping the whole thing annnnd that's it? Still can turn around but it's starting on a bit of a flat note and for a dev cycle of 2+ months to add anything, a bad 1st impression is worse due to the length of time it'll take to potentially turn it around

I think one of the most frustrating things is we wanted content to use primes on.
Limbus was not that content
Flat heavy -dt is also not really a good way to do content scaling
When I look at limbus I feel like I hit the "wall" immediately
There was no journey for something more effective
No underlying mob weaknesses to take advantage of
No boundaries to really push through even with better gear
Just a hard dt wall
I also would have rather them given the mobs more hp and defense than the direct dt
Oooh I have hit r30 nyame and a prime and unless there is an exploit I am hitting a max of around 60k
Doesn't really feel celebrate-able
Even the skillchains stuffer from dt
I have found playing off some weaknesses leads to a little higher than normal sc but not much
This infact, does not spark joy.

I lost so many friends to the prime grind They're in a much better place because of it and you should feel happy for them.

I'm gonna be honest with you guys, if I were the director of FFXI it probably would have been shut down years ago due to incompetence and mismanagement. It's not really in my area of professional expertise.

Do you think Primes are really driving player retention in any significant capacity?

primes should be 2 months at max to make with a group 6 months solo - pathetic SE has you crack heads so trained

It's hard to avoid DA/TA in gear, so what if you have some DA/TA? Well, your DA is useless now due to the 100% native DA rate and the TA is only 1 hit/round better than the DA you would have gotten without it. +1 reason you're getting 1000 TP slower than if you used any other GKT.
Unless im misunderstanding that vid buukki posted, da/ta and such all roll before ambus effect, zanshin however rolls after so thats neutered. In nins case daken works but the oat proc on gkt sets your effective stp on that round to 0 so its nerfed hard at high stp
You would need to intentionally lower your STP to somewhere in the mid range to have like a guaranteed OAT1 proc rate, and then fill the rest of your gear with DA/TA/QA. So half of your attacks would return the full benefit of STP but be multiple attacks, while the other half give a fixed TP return but are guaranteed to be doubled. If you exceed 100STP, your MA as far as I'm aware is "wasted" (unsure if MA can still proc prior to OAT if >100STP is met).
It's a quirky weapon that I have used on occasion just to have fun with, but it does require a unique set to get the "most" out of it. You'd have to know ahead of time how much Samurai Roll STP you're getting to maximize it (maybe GearInfo can do it, but that's too confusing for me)

But what about for ninja w/, without hasso/ Sam sub.
As I am not seeing better gkt options for this job
Why you would not sure, defense down?
That's the primary purpose of the GKT and I carry one for applying Defense Down. If you want to have fun with GKT's Hybrid WS (the light-aligned elements), it's a strong weapon as well.
Beryllium Tachi can be used to also apply defense down as an alternative, and doubles as an option to apply silence via Tachi: Gekko (or bring a Levante Dagger).
The kaja version is still a better investment for ninja, correct?
Depends on how you define "better". NIN Doesn't have stellar Great Katana skill to begin with, and the HQ version has higher accuracy/magic accuracy, so if what you care about is applying Defense Down, the HQ version > Kaja version.

6 months is a long time for any game to demand any level commitment- Y'all addicts at this point - no weapons worth it, primes should be 2 months at max to make with a group 6 months solo - pathetic SE has you crack heads so trained

Not a brit, but I always saw the monarchy as more of an expression of heritage than any meaningful influence. Not really sure what to make of the happening, it seems to me that since the monarchy rarely if ever wields government power it shouldn't matter that much if they choose to kick someone out of it.
Plus, if his own brother thinks he did it, he probably did.

So, while I certainly appreciate your argument, I think all that is left to do in this game's long life, is to help your friends collect pieces of gear.
No, you really can't relate Felgarr. The bot has spent more time leveling your character in the past several years than you have. You don't belong in any discussion or argument about how it is to earn anything. DQ
...Are you on drugs?

The royals are about as relevant as lawn ornaments. The parliamentary system, which has separate heads of government and heads of state, has its attractions even when the head of state is an unelected monarch.
In England they can say the prime minister can go take a flying **** but god save the king. We in the US of A have no analog to this.
In a constitutional monarchy the monarch is both above and inexorably intertwined with politics.

you are able to deal increased damage based on your Elemental+ gear/spells. The day this happens will be confirmation that, whoever is in charge of FFXI has successfully hired Madawc.

It converts every bit of STP into OaT, gear, traits, buffs, dont matter. If it didnt block zanshin it'd be a pretty neat gkt for pre-rema
