I haven't played in maybe a month, but my whole client just updated itself (3hours) and then I logged in and all my .dat and mods were gone :(

any reason why? I don't mind installing them again, just curious why it happened haha

Something about an error with npc price selling. Had to make it a big update.

That was the most surface level sentence I ever gave on here, but it was something like that.

I think we had some major update maintenance, maybe SE repaired most files in the games folder.

They triggered a full file check on the update server and it replaced a lot of files with the originals, they don't do it often.

Best to use the XIpivot windower addon that puts all mods in another folder.

I started using that but now I see characters T posing and some gear invisible. So I went in and apparently everything is placed under one folder. If you want to separate them you have to load each folder individually?

I have random FPS drops to 25~30 from 60 on my characters lately... I don't know if its dgvoodoo or what, anyone had a similar experience?

You can make different folders

xipivot > data > dats

ffxi-hd
next folder
etc

then load these from command prompts in your ini

It's really important the file and folder structure is perfect and as it should be, or the game can crash

If you have mods that are too large, it can cause issues if you have mipmapping too high.

Which mods and where can I check what its set to?

So if you make different folders, you'll need to auto load each folder? I was just putting them all in "ffxi-hd"

You can do that just fine, just if you want to be able to load and unload them separately and not all or nothing they have to be in different base folders.

I have most of mine all in ffxi-hd.

I have FFXI-HD with all my basic mods in
Then I have a second folder outside of this one with modded geo bubbles and removed glows on rema so I can turn these specific ones on and off without turning the first set off.

Yep, thats how I am using it. I figured out the tpose issue, some reason my hotel wifi prevents me from downloading from my cloud all the files I had to upload to my new laptop. So the folders were empty, now I'm trying to figure out the fps drop

I currently multibox and my main has all the rare enemy vorseal, but my alt doesn’t.

Is it the kill shot or the claim that affects rare enemies spawning?

Trying to figure out if I need to know if I should bother taking my alt out to get the out of the way ones like the voidwatch boss.

hello,
as a DD, i was always told to have 27% haste in my TP set.
In this case, do i need haste spell cast on me ?

https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Attack_Speed#Caps

Gear cap is 25%(128/512) however with the way gear dispel and the actual value of haste on gear leads to many gearing towards 26% to ensure they are capped.

Quote:
If you have 25% haste in equipment, your Haste is actually 125/512. This means you need more than 25% haste in equipment to hit the Equipment Cap.

All the info on Haste (attack speed) you could ever want is here:

https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Attack_Speed#Caps

Gear cap for haste is either 25/26% depending on the pieces. You still want someone to always haste you as well since the overall haste cap is 80%

I would recommend reading this thread to get a good basic understanding of how to gear most jobs. It's a super helpful primer.

BG article about this is quite good.

https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Attack_Speed

"Equipment haste has its own cap of 25% (256/1024).
Magic haste caps at 43.75% (448/1024).
Job abilities haste is the third and final category, and it also caps at 25% (256/1024)."

27% has never been a recommendation so I'm not sure where you heard that. I think some newer gear upon Adoulin's release appeared to have more generous /1024 values (meaning 26% wouldn't necessarily be needed to hit the true cap), but as far as I know no one (including myself lol) has bothered to check since then.

Also, jobs that have access to more than 12% JA haste and/or unavoidable excess DW don't necessarily need to cap gear haste in every set.

They made haste so annoyingly confusing on this game.

Gear haste, magic haste, JA haste, then dual wield that is either a benefit or a hindrance based on how much haste you have.

I actually like it. What I dislike tho is that they never tell you which is which and exact amount. Then people get confused for years that haste from Cheer effect from Monster Rearing is gear haste, or Apolcaypse changes equip haste to ja haste for unknown reason. This is true for many other statistics in the game tho...

Confusion among players that can be easily fixed is never a good thing no matter how you look at it.

Always been curious, what is the optimal way to maximize the total damage (from all sources) from magic bursts per skillchain in a situation where you have more than one magic burster?

Like in a standard Blm, Sch, geo backline setup, with and without rayke/gambit. Assuming BIS gear on all of them. Is it best to just let the black mage only?

Black mage only on first nuke then everyone on second volley? or everyone magic bursting but staggering them a few seconds to allow for the magic burst wall to reduce a tiny bit per magic burst?

Again goal being maximum total damage per magic burst window, not just maximum single nuke amount.

Can you imagine if Square would just add a trade channel, then mercs could sell stuff and not spam /yell.

They cause the spam by not wanting to add extra chat channels.

They would go where the people are, which make the effort wasted.

Depends, tusk is -% Phalanx is pure reduction

The harder you're being hit, the better tusk is.

If you were being hit for 10, tusk is -15% so 9 damage
If you were being hit for 10, Phalanx is -14 so 0 damage (160 skill with merits makes it 14)

But if it's 100 tusk is 15 and phalanx is still 14

(before + gear) and unless you're talking about a RDM phalanx II

Thanks Eiryl. Wasn't sure if there was a threshold where one was better than the other.
