Hello!

I'd really like to main Corsair someday, when I can reach Al Zahbi with my character. The gambling mechanics and job's allure seems like my kind of thing, although I've been warned the job is expensive to play because it consumes ammunition. FFXIclopedia does not mention how one obtains bullets in the Aht Urhgan era of the game, the ammo vendors I've seen in towns only sell arrows and bolts.

Are bullets on Nasomi only available through crafting and AH? I'll consider crafts if I have to, just wondering.

Thank you!

They're pretty available on the AH.

You can also sub WHM and basically not do damage.

NPC in Metalworks sells them for 9k/stack as well should the AH ever run out.

The bullets are very expensive and the elemental shots are very inaccurate. ( Possibly involve ranged accuracy instead of pure agi.

Pretty much no one expects a cor to do anything at all but buff and maybe pull one at a time since they can't reliably sleep or dispel

COR can do great damage with gun+bullets up to about level 45ish in decent gear.

Can confirm, I was pulling hate all the way up to KRT on COR, then I started to fall off in damage compared to the other members of the party.

I've not tested RAcc vs AGI for Ele shots, but at this point I have the gear to test it so I'll run out at some point and see what my resist rates are in RAcc gear vs AGI gear. I have, however, done a lot of testing for Ele Shot damage if anyone is interested.

I've seen a lot of it in discord but for the sake of other bored people at work I'd say post it here or in the COR forums. More content directly related to how things work on nasomi is never a bad thing.

My Cor had 10ish marksmanship all the way up to 60. And every available piece of agi gear. I could only land a sleep or two out of a stack of cards . Includes dispels. It must be racc based here since other corsairs with leveled marksmanship claim there's was more reliable.

Unless you meant the elemental shots only and not sleep then nvm
