    I got to test it out today in Dynamis - Jeuno. It kinda sucked, as did Hexa Strike. Dynamis blows ass to test anything in lol. Highest WS was a 800 damage Randgrith with berserk and warcry, no food because I forgot haha. Hexa's were around 400-450ish and the average Randgrith was around 450-500. I really wanna get this outside Dynamis so I can do some decent testing because trying to test crap out with 40 other people around you sucks haha.

    I have no idea when I'll have enough money to finish this thing. The only reason I ended up with Gullintani was because I got my old Dynamis leader's account to redo pearl sacks for people, and he was like, "BTW I have 35 mil, give 5mil to LS bank and you take the rest." I have 100 smithing so that's a plus, but I'm too much of a pussy to craft anything because anything short of HQ is a terrible loss.

    so, to a smither who's just now in the 60's - would you recommend ditching for a different craft?

    On Phoenix, goldsmithers make 50-100k JUST cutting elemental ores into beads to sell to woodworkers. You would have to check your server to see how things look for you there. I lose anywhere from 100-150k if i NQ a haubergeon, compared to before when i would only lose 50k. Seems there's too many crafters or something.

    Re: WHM Meele random crap

    in smithing in particular, the issue I think is that there's really little worth doing -besides- Haubergeon+1 (and with the introduction of Usukane the market for them has recently shrunk)

    and wow.. you're right

    40k profit from the ores (on average)

    -300k (assuming you full AH your haub parts) for an NQ haub...

    maybe I should switch crafts ...

    Only thing that's gonna trump them is AF+1. Plus they serve the nice dual purpose of being used for a Devotion Macro.

    One of the few times it's nice to be a taru. :wink:

    Aside, grats on your shiny new club, Izzy!

    You Taru's and your RSE2 :D

    Hume RSE2 Feet would make an excellent macro piece due to their STR+, however they have the same MND-, making it very difficult to justify spending the nominal amounts of gil for a piece that won't be too useful.

    I think we are due for some nice back melee choices for white mage soon. Least, I hope.

    What's the most any of you WHM/NIN's has done to an open mouth Hpmede in Al'Taieu? I just did 2600 with no minuets. Only courel sub.

    I recon that woulda did 3200+ if I had minuets because my attack would have almost doubled from 370 to 610

    Did you gauge most of your WSs on past experiences or on other melee's WS? Personally my WSs with meat and decent gear on NIN and MNK are in the 800+ range, and I notice alot of my other dynamis melee people have lower WS averages...

    I don't mean to insult WHM melee, but that sounds pretty decent to me in Dyna.

    Re: WHM Meele random crap

    Hexa Strike has some great potential actually, you just need a lot of luck and buffs to get there, thanks to the spectacularly shitty melee gear selection WHM gets. You'll see decent WS returns most of the time, a few shitty, and very few OMGWTFO_o; numbers... great fun when those do happen though. :D

    Izzy has a pretty decent selection of gear for meleeing, all things considered. I haven't seen his WHM melee setup, but keep in mind he is tarutaru; even if WHM inherently can't wear any real nice STR pieces on most slots, he does have access to RSE2, which has a handful of str. WHM gets reverend mail, and can also wear the all jobs acc pieces. If he went /nin the pirate club with STR+5 would be nice. WHM gets plenty of MND gear to help hexa too.

    Your "Melee WHM in Dynamis-Xarcabard" card only has one use and is non-rechargeable until I see a Mjollnir, after which you only get one more. Choose your runs carefully.

    oh, come now be fair: he should be allowed additional charges in the event he outparses some of your full time DD.

    Re: WHM Meele random crap

    Just chiming in to say thanks on the Melee advice. I *finally* got Rev Mail today (eat it, Shen!). So right now my melee-focused gear (and skilling up) as WHM/NIN is as such:

    for clubs: Purgatory Mace, Darksteel Maul
    for staff: Eight-sided pole +1
    head: Optical Hat
    body: Reverend Mail
    waist: Potent Belt
    earring: Suppanomimi (when dual-wielding clubs)

    barring P. Charm (which I'll never spend the gil to get), anyone have any more suggestions on good melee WHM gear? I *am* working on getting better clubs (Morgenstern's, Prudence Rod, the "sea" cudgels ... and if I ever go insane, Mjollnir ... in like 3 years). Are there any better staves? Is it worth switching out hand gear with big MND (blessed) or STR (AF+1), with some other gear I'm unaware of?

    Give me your feedback. I look forward to many a KRT merit party.

    Tone
