Asura.Daleterrence said: »What are the communities like outside of Asura? Is the mercing as bad? Are any servers active apart from Asura? Genuine question, not trying to start anything
Lower population you get the less mercing there is for the most part. And of course with less population is does also mean there's less going on. Leviathan for example, there's virtually no mercing (at least that anyone advertises in any way) aside from one dude selling CP. If there is mercing going on no one is really going to know about it. The server is active, but in a sense of there being specific groups that do things. There's really no shouts for content, pick up groups are rare, it's just small groups doing stuff. So for the most part if you want to get stuff done, you gotta fall in with an event LS or try and start something yourself as you're unlikely to be able to shout and pick people up to do anything.

Is there a list somewhere of the items that are able to be sent to another character on the same account?

Is it possible to (easily) dat mod all "???"'s into something more visually appealing? Replacing it with say... the UNM spawn points.
I would think it would be nice to visually see where ???'s are and whether they've respawned or not yet.

Not an expert, but I don't think it'd be possible unless said spot already had a model or effects associated with it.

There's an Addon/Plugin that's generating slowdowns (my framerate drops) every X seconds.
I suspect it's an addon/plugin because I had this very same issue several years ago and back then the culprit was Findall.
I tried unloading Findall but I still have the issue so, at least this time, the culprit seems to be another one, sadly.
Before I load/unload every single addon and plugin to find the culprit, does anybody have a clue on which addon could be causing this?
I suspect it's an addon that has a log/file that once it's above a certain size generates the slowdowns.
Such was the case for Findall because I had logged on too many characters/mules and eventually it led to those frame drops every X seconds.

It doesn't work on Ongo, which is the only one that really seemed like it'd be worth it to me. I haven't verified any others.

I mostly asked for Ngai because of COR. since COR can't do blunt at all without SJ, on higher level vengeance, outside of procs it's literally useless DPS wise in that fight, unless req works.
And tbh even if it works, COR is probably the only job that benefits from it anyways. since you always use DDs with the right dmg type, BRD isn't on req, and RDM can do all 3 damage types. So there are really no other job that needs this WS to bypass damage resists to do dmg lol.
On BG page it doesn't say Ongo resists specific dmg type btw, just damage taken-. Not sure if Ngai works the same.

Probably just better to use Savage Blade during the Warrior's Tomahawk/Warcry and Monk's Chi Blast/Penance window, and then pull back when the effect wears off and hold TP for proc participation.

I mean you could still melee, but the low dps is not really worth the risk of feeding Ngai TP when those abilities wear off.

I visited the forum, hoping for an answer that will save me for this terrible fate. Requiescat, you are my only hope.
But the replies broke my heart!
Nooooooouuuuu.....;;

You just dont melee at all. Not even during Chi Blast or Tomahawk. You feed TP and can kill people. Also Req wont work (will hit for super low damage).

All the way up to v15 we just let our MNK be tank+solo DD. For v20 we did add the GEO DD'ing since they were gonna be in the mess of it all anyways...but its never been worth it for us to have extra DDs being essentially TP batteries for Ngai.
Its ok- so COR doesn't get to deeps on one fight. Ask the GEOs how they feel in Gaol without a subjob- its awful for them.

Is there any decent way to farm segments triboxing? Could I do something like PLD COR BLU, if I can round up enough to Cruel Joke and use the COR for resets? Otherwise I guess it’s just time to move servers where I can find an LS.
I might consider a tribox of BRD, BLU, COR and just spam CJ-vulnerable families in Sheol B. Yes, your potential segments are lower than in C, but with a CJ setup and building knowledge of the maps/pace, I would imagine it would be viable. Check out posts and threads on BLU or RUN evasion tanking in Segment runs for potentially adjusting sets/songs on the BLU for pulling if you try this.

Did SE fix using Recycle to help with Rare pops? Back when it was introduced, I would farm up 2 rare items at a time, dropping one into recycle then farming a 2nd. However, trying it tonight, if I have one in recycle, the 2nd one drops to the ground when I open up some inventory for it to fall.

I believe it was ninja patched to prevent that.
Just glad I got done with the Apademak needs I was working on while it was active- for singleboxers it was like triboxing in Abyssea.

Do you mean weakness and resistance chart or attribute values (str int etc)
For those of you that visit Bg you already know the premise of this thread but for those that don't, it's simple.
