what the fuck?
Treasure Hound is one of the possible Super Kupowers granted at random after all 11 Mog Tablets have been found and returned to the Explorer Moogle in Ru'Lude Gardens.
While "Treasure Hound" is in effect, players will receive the effects of Gilfinder and Treasure Hunter+1 while under the effect of Signet.
The Japanese name for this is 'Dog Nose' (ドッグノーズ).

So yeah.... the way treasure hunter really worked all this time was revealed in one of the level cap increases 85-90 I think....
I didnt want to tell you locke...
I didnt...
But it appears it has always been a stacking debuff, and the ONLY thing +th does is let you get a higher initial stack. Basically it caps out at 9 with the help of ranger's Bounty shot, but you dont need +th to get it that high just luck on the procs.
I'm sure all of us thought of the thief's knife and TH2 as some MAGICAL BEAST before finding this out. I'm also sure the JP's knew this all along lol. " WHY SIRRY GAIJIN PAY SO MUCH FOR THIEF KNIFE WWWWWWWWWWWWWWW"

The game is very different these days btw.
Thief is actually the best evasion tank in the game at the moment, closely rivaled by DNC and NIN.
Iono if you could get yourself over the whole thief knife thing you would enjoy what the game has turned into I think.

Does WoW talk sound as much like complete nonsense/jibberish to non-wow players as FF talk sounds like complete nonsense/jibberish to non FF players?

Some words overlap but typically if you say TPS, DPS, or HPS to someone from ffxi they will think you are crazy.

" WHY SIRRY GAIJIN PAY SO MUCH FOR THIEF KNIFE WWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" I read that it was a stacking debuff on the alla THF forums awhile ago, and that now when TH procs it shows up in the logs. Amazing they kept it quiet for so long, if in fact it always worked that way. I haven't read anything about proc rate, or what "TH9" actually means in terms of drop rate. When most of EO went over to WoW, that was pretty much it for me. I didn't deactivate because there was only two things I wanted: THF Knife and THF AFv2 pants. I did run with another dynamis shell once (and won Windy for them lol), but the pants weren't worth running 2 nights a week for god knows how long. I continued to hunt the Knife, but after they nerfed it, that was it for me. It dropped and I was the only signed on...the end. |

lol@all the theory-crafting for TH last time >.> I always thought Treasure Hunter just increased the drop rate of each item by a percentage. TH 1 = 3%, TH 2 = 5%, etc. I never did any testing, but it was always interesting to read people's theories and viewing their test results. Everything was always inconclusive. I did enjoy doing things like evasion testing and TP testing (after they changed the system). It was annoying that the dev team didn't disclose much info, but that increased the sense of community outside the game, as people worked to figure things out. |

Thief is actually the best evasion tank in the game at the moment At the moment? THF was always the best evasion tank because of the inherent evasion bonuses. THF just couldn't keep hate. Do the new abilities allow THF to keep hate well? |

There's a glitch with Cure VI - it does 99,999 DMG to undead, rofl
edit: not as good as FFVI where you could just toss a phoenix down to kill undead!
