Chemira is a piece of trash...

This works even better with RDMs, it takes them more time and MP, and if this really works out nicely, the skoffining may result in further deaths to non-skoffins. This is called chain skoffination and adds to the force of the original skoffining.

Skoffining is, however, to be used only under one of the following conditions:

1. There's a lack of anything else to pull.
2. Plain old fun and giggles.
3. There's a melee present, usually MNK, who thinks WAR sub in cannon merit parties makes for the best exp/hr. (In this case, *targeted* skoffining is needed.)

Seems 1 & 2 were accomplished in out pt!
 
I wish i could sub war :( it's just not logical anymore.
 
well hell im sure you subbed it for a good 75 exp lvl's give the other subs a chance. :cool:

idk. is there anything that monks can do that they can get away with /war anymore? aside from lvl capped stuff of course. they /whm for kirin to steroid their chi blast. and i see /nin for everything else(probably cause they so used to it from the cannons they merit in).
 
KRT! Monk cannon 4tw! 3 mnk/war rdm, whm, and brd is best <3

edit: i havent had one of those in a loooong time, lets gather the mnks >.>
 
It was not so much the melee, the brd kept pulling a lot of links and for some reason he kept saying his sleep was resisting alot. I helped him best I could but I really wouldn't blame the melee. Probably would of been a 15k exp party with a good puller.


To all those BRD's that comlain about getting alot of resists on sleep in merit PT's all I can say is lolnursemaid's harp.

hey im down for that. i've fucking had it with nyzul isle. and i need CP like a mofo.
 
I admittedly skipped the last few pages, but reading the first dozen actually made me want to merit with Chemira. I'm sick of people getting shitty exp and just settling for it, "exp is exp" is a retarded statement. If I joined a party of dead and half dead people, I'd go ahead and disband right away too.

The reason people say, "exp is exp" is because of the mentality that has completely taken over this game to only invite certain jobs (MNK, NIN, RDM BRD WAR). So for those jobs that have to seek for hours, sometimes DAYS. ANY exp is a good thing for them. Disbanding a party just because it isnt pulling 15 - 20k an hour is just dumb, and it all because of the retardedness that is Aht Urghan. Do to this some jobs are just completely ignored, no matter how long they seek, and its just plain stupid. It use to be where pt invites didnt happen because "JP onry", now its that and the fact if you arent one of the above meantioned jobs its highly unlikely you will get a party. Its now become a double edge sword.

QFT. i love it when i find posts the share my views on ToAU. the "party" i was in an hour or so ago was a good example of this.

Did you melee rdm in that party too? :/

Non cannon jobs don't matter anyways.

No, I've been hearing that shit since I began playing in 2005. It's not because of Aht Urhgan.

Do these people bitching about lack of parties have no friends or something? They can't find ANYone to get some exp with?
 
As a brd myself (i hope a decent one) i get headaches at anything *less* then 15k an hour, BUT that's when I'm pulling.

Sometimes, i don't wanna pull and don't mind what exp is given. In those cases, it's when I'm not seeking and asked while I'm trying to Lvl something else or just relaxing not /anon'd.

Point being, yes, it is sorta upsetting only to get 1 merit an hour (Brd spoiled the hell outta me). If i find the party not doing very good, i usually ask the leader for 15-20 mins to find someone, or if they want me to pick someone myself. But i guess everyone have their own standards of "what's good exp". :3

Teppo pulls too fast! He aches for 30k+ <3
 
yes once upon a time. we were killing things with a standard party but there was so much /nin that the whm was resting 50% of the time. and i could have as well been a refresh/haste bot cause thats all i did. they party was like "zalt if you're bored you can melee if you want." so i said oh why not. least i capped sword. but that was 2 monts or so ago.

parties like the one blaze invited me to at the mamool ja staging point last week are the better ones. it was my first super chain party and i had fun. but every time i get invited to nyzul isle my first impulse is to say no. last nithe there were at least 7 parties there and all camping on top of each other fighting for mob pops. it was the stupidest thing i'd seen in awhile and the party leader kept pushing to stay. the rest of us wanted to disband.

You should have left that nub leader behind. Leave Nyzul Island to non-cannon parties we'll take colibri, and their tp stealing ways.

I was told XP is XP yesterday...When I got an invite on my 67 PLD from someone who thought we didn't need refresh. I'll admit we didn't need refresh, but for fuck's sake, just why would you even bother with such a shit setup? XP is XP. There's a big difference between a mid 60s party getting 1-3k/hour and 10k+/hour though. The person that was willing to setup XP with a PLD, and without refresh plays 75 RDM. :/
No names necessary. A stupid idea is a stupid idea. And there are plenty of people coming up with stupid ideas.

I'm content soloing any and all XP versus putting myself in a more frustrating situation by joining a shitty party. But at least I'll say it up front. ;)
