I’m Still Alive!
I’ve been missing in FFXI for almost 2 months now! Been busy with life and stuff. Right now I’m slowly trying to fit some time back to the game.
Wings of the Goddess - I barely played much of the expansion. =X Looks boring so far.
The last big update - RNG got boosted so much! Last party with Bubian, I got owned on Greater Colibri’s. His average 2.4k sidewinders are so boring, he was peaking at 3.3k sidewinders and 5.3k barrage! Absolutely CRAZY ! RNG screams for a gimping so I can own him again! =P He did about 10% more damage than I did. =X I was never parsed close pre-update, this was pretty shocking. Velocity shot really owns!
Samurai - All my accuracy is messed up now with the update, I can’t afford to wear the Byrnie +1 anymore. I parsed 87% on Mamools at Nyzul camp with Haubergeon +1 .. Sigh terrible. Maybe I need to get those sniper +1 back.. hehe or Ace Helm =P
Samurai took a big hit with our damage. Attack gained from STR is no longer 100% but 75%. I lose about 23 attack from this update for melee, which is loosing that free B.Kote. Y/G/K also dropped in damage, it’s fTP no longer 1.75, 2.0, 2.5 , the new numbers are 1.5625, 1.875, 2.5 . This makes Hagun shines more, but the difference is not as big as the whole WS damage is toned down. This makes onimaru and shinsoku more competitive.
