    Amano is nice, idk who was rating theirs down but they are retarded. Do amano.

    also self funded horn say <^> to your LS and go whatever job you want, if you didn't get help for it you don't owe it to anyone to fulltime brd

    I mean I suppose this goes for any job and or weapon, but Apoc drastically changes the way DRK is played. Its a good thing.

    My favorite DD jobs are WAR and DRG, I have 'em at 75. However, if I could have one relic, I'd pick Apocalypse and I'd level DRK for it, change my merits for it, and toss my Suppa for it.

    Apocalypse is the highest increase from perfect non-relic to perfect relic, easily. Apocalypse is easily the best damaging relic weapon. Yoichi has quite some utility, too.

    DO NOT do a relic because it's the best, do one for the job YOU enjoy playing most as a DD. If it's Sam you like playing then you'll get the most enjoyment out of Amano, and yes Amano is a beast of a relic as well.

    If you enjoy them both then it's really just a personal option of which you prefer to play the most. Yes Apoc CAN change the way Drk is played but it all depends on who's using it, but don't be fooled by thinking Amano can't make a huge difference too.

    Well both are good, you cant really choose wrong. We RDM/BLM/SMNs can get relics that are toys and have no use end game. As a RDM, pick from Murgleis/Mandau/Excalibur... lol (btw Tachi: Kaiten animation wins)

    What's your best geared job between sam and Drk ?

    Are you doing salvage to get usukane or ares ?

    YOu have E body ?

    If you have trouble choosing which to do, just get the one you got the most stuff for already.

    in my opinion having a relic but no equip to support it is just totally stupid, should get relic once your job is the best you can have without relic (my opinion only).

    I can't imagine asking random people what relic I want to do.

    If you don't 110% know which relic/mythic you want to do, then I don't think you need to do another. Just be happy with your 1, which is more than 99.99% of the playerbase.

    If one day you wake up and you just KNOW you want level, say, Scythe. Then do it.

    Otherwise spend your time doing something that gives you more enjoyment.

    Do Yoichi because I said so. Namas arrow spam is pretty awesome. There, problem solved.

    i know ill touch a few nerves when i say this, but idc. apoc doesnt change drk as much as ppl think. At least depends on the person's play style. Apoc imo only makes it safer to goes balls to the walls since you have a WS that cure IV's you. With just a perdu sickle, i was able to hang with them as far as dmg% goes with 3-4 other apoc drks in separate occasions. Than again im an extremely aggressive player and good with my seigan at the same time. Dank was the only one out of the apocs i knew who wasnt just casual. He was just like me, WS'ing the second he had TP, using 16% haste in gear since he was already capped. So he knew how to gear specifically for it. And we were still about equal, i can dig up some parses later if anyone is interested. Except... the mages didnt have to heal him nearly as much me. i was a pain in the ass lol.


    amano is a much diff story. which is why, i would've picked that one instead of apoc if i was still playing. The amano users who rank it down are usually the bandwagon sams who dont know they can STILL do 2k WS's in camps like mamool, w/o having to do Tachi Rana. That WS is so overpowered, its retarded. Its delay is ludacris, allowing you to WS more often times than a DRK with apoc, for way more average dmg. And if you sub /drg you can swing way more often as well in the long run.
    On HNM, its not a big deal. My average Gekko on Tiamat as a /war sub was around 600 with a hagun and minimal buffs. Amano would bea tthe hell out of that, even wth 100 TP. And this is coming from the guy who played around with the Futsuno as well.
