    Sadly no Mercy Stroke once on Bard.
    Mercy Stroke vs Bard Soul Stone Dex+
    I think Dex+ win.

    What I did usually start with

    straight shot
    Bloodletter
    Wind Bite
    venomous bite
    Heavy shot

    And circle thru, if you have Feint, add that before Heavy shot.

    This is level 30-35 tho, I kinda stop at 35, playing other classes to 15 atm.

    Post 38, u have another single target to add in the list.

    How I usually start -
    Heavy shot ( for a luck of combo hit)
    Then
    Press macro with those list

    Usually at the end of the line, Mysery End will pop to press

    This on normal mobs of course

    From what ppl shared here, Ifrit is not worth getting, when you have top rank bow from Gridania or Limsa.

    Crit is better then determination for BRD, so any of the ilevel 55 bows with crit (GC, Darklight from Palace, or Longarm) would likely give better results then Ifrit's.

    Darklight doesn't have crit, it has skillspeed.

    So if I'm a flame, what bow should I be using in the interim? Just Darklight? Assuming I've turned my Longarm in already. Or just suck it up and buy a second Longarm?

    Edit: We haven't found a new way to obtain Giantsgall, have we?

    Yeah my bad on Darklight. And honestly, it's still a fine bow. The difference between any of the 55 bows is really pretty minor, just min maxing.

    Is Foe Requiem even useful? I haven't seen a point in using it at all yet.

    If it's fight where you won't have to ballad or paeon, it can help. The damage increase will apply to Windbite and flaming arrow, and it helps out caster DPS.

    Reduces all enemy elemental resistance by 10%. MP is drained while singing. Effect is lost if targets move out of hearing distance, and ends upon reuse. Cannot be used with other songs.
    I think you're confused.

    Resistance affects damage, Requiem reduces resistance. What's confusing?

    Other than a Darklight ring, assuming no Hero ring, what 2nd ring should I be using?

    I completely missed Toxotes Ring apparently.

    Edit: So, starting with GC bow/AF. Already have Merc. Slops. I'm thinking my route is gonna be: Darklight Accesories/Merc slots. Toxotes Ring > Darklight head/feet > darklight body > darklight hands?

    If ya can scrounge up a griffin tunic +1, slap as much useful materia as you can and that should last you until you can get something better than dark light. Or just get the DL set for completion cause collecting is cool.

    With resistance, we should only use with SMN or BLM ?
    Or what kind of circumstances will we be using that song?

    Where's giantsgall on that bow ranking? From what i can tell, it should be above Serpent, not sure if on par with ifrit, but probably not because of wpn dmg.

    What should I be putting my bonus points into? I'm 50 and haven't used any yet lol. I'd assume dex, dex, and more dex, but wanted to check w/others before I did anything.
