RE: Patch 2.38 Release Notes - Kage - 09-16-2014

Yeah but I'm going to get the unweathered things soon anyway.

I want animation of the BLM /cpose but it looks sassy.

You always have the option of going for a "welfare Novus", where you stop at level III materia and fill the rest of the slots with accuracy or something else. It's incredibly cheap, and it's not like 11 crit and 8 determination will ever make-or-break you.

I'm one of those weird people who, if I go in for something, I tend to be as min-maxy cheeseball as I can manage.  >.>

The Yagrush actually has better stats than the Thyrus does, unless you novus the Thyrus and pick your own stats.

Aren't novus weapons just about somewhere close to BiS? edit: If you build them that way etc
I know some of the Soldiery weapons suck. *cough*bookofdiamond*cough* but at this point I'd rather have a "sucky" i100/i110 weapon over a zenith.
Because I don't want to do ex primals again.
Or get a relic as sch. >.>;

It comes down to secondaries, but for the most party Novus/Coil110s are neck and neck. Any DPS weapon that's been augmented to be crit/det is about to trump HA, I think, barring BLM stick? I'm not a caster, I don't know.

Who's doing EXes again, though? Dead content is dead, RIP in peace.

I'm just hoping it isn't what people are suspecting: Collect X number of Light Points by doing content, then every week on reset you'll get Y% completion towards Nexus, with the whole period taking Z weeks long. There's casual content, and then there's waiting in line for your upgrade.

Needs more male/female variations.

Depending on how you build the Novus, I believe they're either BIS or Equivalent (I believe some of the High Allagan weapons have perfect stats, too, so it's really a question of what you have access to).

As far as getting your relic as SCH, that's not hard at all, Kage. :-P  I know plenty of people who would go with you and get it done real quick in one night.  I think I managed my Bard relic in under 4 hours?  Even though I died twice to Titan.  >.>

RE: Patch 2.38 Release Notes - Kage - 09-16-2014

EditEditEdit This is what happens when I'm at work. That's totally what I meant. IMO the point of novus etc is to keep min max builds. If I wanted to lesser the bonus status, I think its easier to go my path and just take the soldiery weapons. ESPECIALLY WITH THESE SANDS AND OILS DROPS :O!

But I already got my weathered Book of Diamonds. >.>

I'm just not willing to do the questline all over again.

And after having issues in AV I'm worried I'd suck. Then. Ohhhh Titan. @_@' I have confidence as a DPS. Tank. 80%. SCH? 20%

I don't know if anyone told you this, but no one likes AV.  I mean, no one sane.  I don't know anyone who hasn't had any trouble in there, it's just a real butt of an instance.  You shouldn't judge your performance as a SCH by Aurum Vale, seriously.

The problem with AV is the level it's placed at. It's just before 50, so you lose out on the best of all your skills, but the creatures inside are designed as if you DO have them. So things just take FOREVER to kill. It wouldn't be so bad if they removed some of the trash so packs were in 2's instead of 3's maybe.

Yep, and if you're a scholar, Eos murders herself in the last fight (or did the last time I was there) and there's nothing you can do about it.  You can manually control her to force her to heal other people, but if you don't, she just stands there spamming herself until she's dead.  Then you have to resummon her and it repeats.

For anyone interested, here is Yoshi's translated response (finally posted on the English boards):

Even on obey, she'll still spam herself.  You have to force her to use all of her GCDs embracing people OTHER Than herself. lol
