    What's the deal with ADL clone timing? I saw some videos of dnc soloing him with extended skill chains, taking 50+ seconds from the point they start damaging him to kill. When I try to do the same thing with blu 1hr, he clones at 20-25s in. Is it just damage based?

    I haven't done Odin II since coming back. What's it like these days? Can I solo on BST? Can it be lowmanned easily?

    I logged in after 3 years (rolled a new char in 2012) and I am gimp as shit with my nin, talking a couple of pieces from abyssea and I stopped playing before adoulin. All the different storage options are pretty awesome too!

    I just want to mainly potter around doing misc. missions and quests, maxing stuff out etc, but it'd be nice to have some up to date gear that's not too hardcore to obtain. I probably log in 1-2 times a week and don't really have the time to dedicate to spending x amount of time obtaining gear, just have fun really. Been reading the first link in the op (great link btw) and I'm thinking maybe delve or roe is the way to go?

    RoE remembers mission progress etc, so you can clear a bunch of them right away to get sparks to buy some i117 gear, for NIN that is the Outrider set. Also get a katana from the RoE npc and you'll be ready to start running around Adoulin. Delve is good for accessories and some gear pieces, but an easier and usually better option is Yorcia Weald Alluvion Skirmish. That is a lot of words that are nonsense but look it up or have someone bring you along (there's no entry requirement besides being able to get to the entrance). This is a pretty simple event that yields i119 armor and weapons that can be augmented to be some of the best pieces in game. There are some better options from other events, but this is the best way to get geared and comfortable to be able to do those events, and you don't need any kind of special gear to do alluvion yorcia; there's no boss fights, it's all farming trash mobs. Pop items for skirmish should be really cheap now as we've just had a month of increased drop rates, so it might be a good time to stock up since you're going to need a good number of runs.

    Besides that, you can now learn Blade: Hi for use on any weapon, not just emp, so look into that.

    So what's this Mog Pell thing we're gonna get? Gonna assume you can only pick one thing and that Trizek Ring absolutely destroys the competition?

    Oh I can't wait to see if I don't get the thing, since I have no idea if my account is hooked up to a SE account or whatever garbage. (I spent like an hour going through those menus trying to make sure yesterday and I get a bunch of "you need to seek customer support if you want to transfer this account".) But yeah, I'd think Trizek would be hard to pass up for anybody that doesn't have one. Other things may provide a quick fix for one weapon/armor or something, but you'll get a lot of mileage out of Trizek.

    Going to answer my own question here in case people need/want Odin items or abjs for update.

    BST + PLD + GEO clears easily. Bolster Frailty + literally anything (I used attunement) + Unleash Tegmina Buffet. PLD exists to hold stuff after pet gets OHKO by Z. Kai. Went through 3 pets. Took probably 2 minutes total. Got my ring so fuck going back, but was pretty fun.

    This might be the appropriate thread.
    I'm starting to get annoyed at Manibozho Brais, which I still use on some jobs for the following purposes

    1. DEX based WS (normal set)
    2. Some non-DEX based WS (acc set)
    3. TP Acc on some jobs


    Is there a single item piece I can use to replace Manibozho Brais in all these roles?
    Closest I can think of is Taeon Tights, but it looks more like a situationally better sidegrade. Not sure I can judge it worth the effort, if I'm gonna get minimal increases for such a huge effort/cost.

    depends which jobs rawhide trousets have a DEX +10 augment on it coupled with STR and something else, dont remember the base stats of it tough

    Oh forgot about those.
    Job-wise it's perfect, it has all the jobs I need.
    The DEX is nice, it also has a very high STR value (40), 17 more than Manibozho.
    Sadly it lacks accuracy and attack (-11 acc than Mani, -21 att).

    Wish some of those stats could've been allocated differently. I don't need Magic Accuracy, Tactical Parry or Enhancing Magic (or INT!) on those melee jobs.
    /sigh

    Taeon blows away manibozho for all but DEX based ws in that list, and possibly that too if you get a good ws damage + augment with dusk. I don't know which job(s) you're using for the DEX ws but for THF AF pants 119 are better for evis and for WS stacked with SA/TA.

    The main use I have for Manibozho atm is 1) in that list. Could be missing something but I think it's just Rudra's Storm, Evisceration (DNC) and Blade: Shun (NIN)
    2) and 3) is just something I have in acc sets in some jobs.

    The thing is I'm having troubles in finding a good compromise for Taeon. WS damage would be the best for Rudra maybe, but it would suck on Shun and Evisceration.
    Crit dmg/crit rate would be nice for Evis, but suck for Rudra and Shun. Attack is less important for Evis, but matters a lot for Rudra and especially Shun.
    I was thinking about Taeon with the following augments:
    Snow: Att/Acc+20
    Leaf: TA+2%
    Dusk: DEX+10 (STR/DEX+7 probably close to that)

    With such a setup Taeon would be greatly superior for 3), probably superior for 2) and I think it should be superior for 1) as well, altough probably not too far given 2 less STR and -8 attack.
    Leaf slot is easy peasy.
    But the idea of getting perfect aug with Snow and Dusk kinda... kills my motivation at the thought of how many stones I would need. Maybe I just have a strong bias given how I've spent over 70 mils in other augments and walked out with shit, mostly, but I'm kinda burned out with random augmentation systems, if you get what I mean.

    Considering I obtained multiple copies of Taeon Tights eons ago, that's probably the reason why they're still in my Storage, bare, looking at me.

    Each character gets one, so if you have mules, they'll get Pells too. The Trizek and Escad rings are sendable across the same account, so if you have mules, I'd recommend acquiring said rings on them and send them to yourself. That is, assuming you want any of the Trust Ciphers, which cannot be sent. Most are fairly unremarkable, except Moogle (invincible, just grants Refresh aura and magic skill up rate bonus), and Kupofried (exp bonus aura).

    Skirmish wings are also not sendable, so if you pick those on a character, they'll need to get to Adoulin/Yorcia to make any use of them. Dusk stones are going to be the top money item, assuming the price doesn't crash hard from people with many mules acquiring countless stacks of them.

    About the Trizek / Escad Rings being sendable, apparently that was ninja fixed or something according to lolAH site.

    yeah they are sendable but with the rare tag that's not as crazy as it sound. Like you can start use one before you leave town and then grab one out of your dbox which is nice but often not worth coming back to town when one wears off and if you had were able to just pre use one you even take away that bonus. Like often if I think I might want xp/cp on the character the next day I'll use the ring before I go to bed or maybe when I get up in the morning and they last forever. Should also note the game actually lets you use the ring even if you have the dedication effect up. As far as I can tell it just overwrites
