New JSE Weapons

[Damane]

Tested with Regen V, I counted ~13 seconds more, which probably are just 12 and that means static lasting time?
~1 second of error is acceptable, but I would have noticed 5 seconds difference...
Can anybody else double check this?

static lasting time means it can DIAF and i wont bother with that stave!

[JSHidaka]

Static is better than %, 12 secs are 20% more in duration...

All % are Applied to the base duration...

[Shadowmeld]

Just did some quick math on this, and if you have access to Bolebanaga (spelling) you get about an extra 3% hp cured/time due to the potency bonus vs. Coeus. If you have max (currently) job points in regen duration during tabula rasa the gap widens to 5%

Which calculation isn't quite right because I only factored 1 casting each, with Bolebanaga you should be ~30 seconds into your second cycle which is more hp cured/time

the question is if rapture can affect this?

Actually static or non static it would make no difference.
With Light arts active 12% of 108 seconds is the same as +12 seconds, I tested just out of curiosity.
My test could be wrong too, but again, it makes no difference.

Rapture only affects Healing Magic, not Enhancing Magic I believe

[Sechs]

Rapture doesn't affect Regen of course. Did you mean perpetuance? Yes, perpetuance affects those 12 seconds, they become +30ish.
It's pretty awesome.

Not saying you SHOULD get the Staff don't get me wrong, but it's a cool bonus.

[Shadowmeld]

Might be something worth having if you are doing content where you are using perpetuance and the number of strategems available is very limited. An extra 30 seconds over 30 minutes would allow you to have ~4-5 more strats to use somewhere else in a run.

[Sechs]

I wonder how Job Points stack with Regen and Perpetuance.
Do they kick in before perpetuance like the staff?
Is that +10 static or %? (leaning for static at this point)

If you're a casual SCH the staff can also be an inventory saver. Worse than other 119 options for nuking/accuracy, but still good.
(not Damane's case of course )

[Shadowmeld]

the wiki says that it is 3 seconds (1 tick) per job point

[Sechs]

So JPs actually add "ticks" and not seconds?
How strange, but cool regardless. Bet that if really is how it works, they get added AFTER the final calculation for duration (i.e. after Perpetuance).
10x 3 ticks is awesome anyway, imagine when they raise the cap to 20 or 30 JPs.
Every lazy SCH will be able to make their regens last a lot of time, especially during Tabula Rasa (additional duration and potency)

[Shadowmeld]

No, the help text says seconds.

Off SCH topic, I was wondering Priven Shield is all right to use for tanking AA ?

If you can keep reprisal up it will usually be better than ochain.

Anyone know how good the mnk weapon is?

Crappy. Use the T5 one from Kamihr if you have no REM.

Off SCH topic, I was wondering Priven Shield is all right to use for tanking AA ?

I've done everything on D with a PLD that has Priwen/Skirmish Shield +1 for the PDT/MDT situations respectively.

Provided it's not nearly as easy, for example AA GK really pounds PLDs that don't have Ochain, but still doable.

For example, you really want to /run for Cloudsplitter to help out Beatific Shield +1's severe lack of MDT compared to aegis.

It was more fun though, from the perspective of a WHM, Ochain/Aegis makes fights up to D quite trivial. Haven't done VD yet.

For someone who doesn't plan on getting a relic, empy, mythic anytime soon. Is the RNG gun better than anything else available, minus to the items I said?
