Grounds of Valor is abandonware since like 2012
Just another thing in the game they should update, but won't
I spent an embarrassing amount of time getting Light Resistance on a Hades Earring +1 for the past few weeks. I'd say it's 99.99999% abandonware now unless you like building niche sets like me.

I think Thorny has proven that he is well capable of based reasoning, that's why his financial bias becomes so much more apparent when he starts taking sides for something like EP loss.
Carbuncle.Maletaru said: »Even if I were solo and died in some *** up place in Limbus or w/e...there's a very good chance I could convince a handful of people to come clear my body and raise me. I instantly believe that you're the type of guy to bug others to come raise you in 2025. "/t Joe hey Joe, I know you only got like 2 hours of free time at the weekends but I had a little fuggy wuggy with my super buffed multibox over in limbus, would you mind?"
The climate also has changed. If you're solo and don't want to bug anyone you could lie dead for the full 60 minutes in the most crowded places, Kamihr Drifts Bivouac #4 or rabao, without receiving a single R1.
Carbuncle.Maletaru said: »The very reason I'm unsympathetic is BECAUSE of the source of your money/EP, and the source of it also makes it easy to get more, making it even less sympathetic. Aren't you the guy who went 8 final stage crafting shields deep into pay2win?
Carbuncle.Maletaru said: »If you're dying in a pile of aggressive mobs, or in an unsafe place in an odyssey arena, you're making a mistake. Don't make a mistake next time. Hurray, EP loss taught you something. All I've learned is that my odyssey solo chest popping THF isn't going to ding ML50 any time soon.

Master's Cap
for beating ilvl Maat on all jobs
only accessible on a ML50 job That's funny because when I see someone with ML50 I tend to assume they have no idea how to play the game.
This hat would be a giant red flag to stay away from said player.

Just throwing in my 2 cents that magic accuracy does indeed matter a lot on SCH. I noticed this when I swapped from Bunzi+Ammurapi to Opashoro+Enki. I started getting resisted significantly more, both in V25s and in Sortie, and actually ended up settling on Opashoro+Khonsu because that ~15 magic accuracy made a difference. That's with a 277 skill / 35 macc staff which is likely comparable to the 255/55 you get on Mpaca and superior to what you get on Marin.
So while I haven't tested the 2 staves in question, I suspect what Dodik said is right on the money.

I would re-introduce sub-less/trust-less fights for every job, similar to the RUN + GEO empyrean 135 quests where you had to kill NM solo for mats.
RUN Empy fight
GEO empy fight
These fights aren't hard now, but were kind of challenging at the time when they were new. At least for the RUN fight, you had to know which elements were strong and weak vs what, and the days of the VanaDiel week. You also needed to properly time abilities like Liement, Battuta, and One For All to properly negate (and even heal) oncoming damage. GEO was a basic grav kite and nuke (but still engaging for the time).
Something kind of like Shattering Stars Matt/Balrahn/Pulling The Srings ENM solo fights, but updated to ilvl, with a sliding scale similar to Odyssey Veng fights (V+0 = CL119, v+25 ~CL145), so players can challenge themselves. Reward a trophy, title, visible glow, or an additional tier of merits or job point accessibility based on how high of a level you can clear. Or a unique job-item, similar to "Pulling The Strings" rewards. Track progress on leaderboards, similar to Ballista and VanaBout rankings so people can compete with others for clear times. I think it would be a cool way for players to improve their skills on a particular job by fighting against a mannequin that you need to outwit, and use your job knowledge to overcome. Make it repeatable with no EP loss so players don't feel discouraged for losing, and allow other players to be able to watch the fights live (The Pit/Colosseum is a great place for it).
The catch is you'd have to do the fight solo in a public area just like the RUN/GEO quests (but without a sub, allow meds), not in an instanced zone, so you'd have a bit more pressure on you, but also people cheering you on and able to watch your strategy and see what works/doesn't work. Make the requirements for winning different based on the job (i.e. PLD might need to survive a certain period of time, DD has to kill, WHM has to heal a certain amount of HP within a period of time, etc).
Also, never gonna happen, but i had time.

I think the last ban wave got Rady and Alfania.
Now only Nynja is left.

Golden fist
Seems to be the trigger for auras?
Anyone know why my ls members are reporting that they are being decimated by head snatch?
I don't seem have an issue

Yeah, this is why I made my chart. There's a few different dimensions to tackle RP farming, but I think what you're trying to say is, this is the formula, right?
1.) BST Ooze
2.) SCH Helix
3.) Zerg
Also, in your Ooze MB, you technically want Unda x3 + Rayke before the MB is performed right? So..
1.) Unda x3 + Rayke
2.) Apogee Crescent Fang > Eclipse Bite (Distortion) > Ooze MB

I am sure someone will say something along those lines though.

Anything else is ez-mode gtfo cheater n00b.
OK, so everyone who doesn't use equipsets gets a permanent lockstyle dunce cap? Come on.
Competence is more of a groups competence than an individual competence in ffxi.
OK, true, but you didn't answer the question.
I consider myself somewhat in that area in that I've done pretty much everything as DD, support, and healer, but never tanked. I think having tanked and healed content shows competence.
OK. This is insightful. Let's say SE gave us a Tank, DD and Healer Stars if we beat something as a Tank, DD and Healer, respectively. If you saw someone with these gold/glittery stars above their head, would you be more inclined to play with them? or see them as more competent?

But the giving up feeling is just because I was trying like 10h for a perfect run without success and starting to feel kinda depressed.
But then I got a semi perfect one before lunch time, and now I feel quite good.

Sometimes I ask, why i dont just give up? Voluntarily stopping breathing is REALLY hard to do.
