So I haven't been here in a while and apparently my old account got lost, but anyways...

I just (as in, 10 mins ago) got my Hunter's Bracers back from upgrading, and I was wondering:

When I use Barrage, do I just have to have them equipped just when I use the JA, or do I have to have them equipped when I shoot too?

That's all, thanks.

PS. I tried search and it fails, and I'm too lazy to read other topics. Sue me. >.> <.<

No, you have to keep them equipped to gain the extra shot.

People are going to tell you not to use them in lieu of Skote or C(B)FG, but that's always been pretty silly to me. Just because the chances of Barrage landing isn't stellar, doesn't mean you didn't have capped Racc beforehand.

If you normally use osode just toss on af1 body for the extra racc.

According to wiki: "Only need to have Hunter's Bracers +1 equipped while activating Barrage for the additional shot"
http://wiki.ffxiclop...rg/wiki/Barrage

Is Kaparu correct or is Wiki correct?

Why is this so important?-


I am definitely going for Barrage +1 on the pants in the new expansion. Depending on who is right, will lead me to choosing the 2nd stat.
Do you think the movement speed +8% will stack with strider boots?

[Kaparu]

You'll need to be wearing both pieces during the shot to get all eight arrows on Barrage

No.

"Movement Enhancement gear does not stack, it will take whichever item has the greater value, and apply that bonus to your character"

Plus that would be wayyyy too nice of SE to give us 20% movement speed on alot of jobs.

Neither.

It doesn't matter what you have equipped during activation; the only thing that matters is that you have the gloves equipped when you fire the shot.

Pardon my lack of knowledge, I haven't played FFXI for about a year and a half now, whats this about the Augmenting items w/the "A Shantotto Ascension" for Ranger?

I know what Augmenting is from reading up on it, but I can not find anything relating for the Augmenting of an item for Ranger to have +1 Barrage on Leg pieces. You choose which piece you get to add this to or?

Thanks.

"Players will be able to choose two of the following augments to supplement the item's base attributes:"

It's not rocket science. Says it right on the thing. When you complete the mission, you get one of the three legs - much like getting a ring or earring from other known missions - which you get to then augment with whichever you choose.
