    Samurai Back Gear

    Just wondering, should I be using a forager's mantle, cerberus mantle +1, or cuchulain's mantle for my 75 sam. Thanks for the help.

    The other gear you're using helps too, you know.

    Also, the obligatory shit is situational.

    Acc capped?

    Yes => Cerb +1.
    No => Cuchulain's.

    407 ACC for Colibri and 420-440 is good for other mobs. Pizza is a good means of capping ACC against other mobs (But this depends on gear).

    Pretty much what Raen said, and for Y/G/K Smilodon +1/Cuch/Cerb+1 are all really good.

    How did you come up with the number of 420-440 for "other" mobs, and what "other" mobs are you talking about? Like other XP mobs? NM, HNM or Salvage bosses?

    Just trying to get an idea for what I should aim for on harder mobs. Don't really care about XP mobs at all (this is probably obvious by now LOL).

    Probably means Mamool Camp + Troll camp (main meripo camps/ mobs) where 440 would cap you on every mob at these camps other than THF's and Troll PUPs (and technically highest level NIN Mamool but thats ~448 to cap). That covers most of the mobs from Ein/Salvage/NI etc other than bosses as well.

    I asked this question in the Randomest Question thread (What is decent ACC), and the response was that on most reasonable mobs like Einherjar/Apollyon/Salvage/TP-Burn like/Some HNM mobs, you'll cap ACC at 420-440 ACC. Of course there are exceptions like Chigoes and THF mamools, but stuff like those caps at 506ish ACC.

    Edit: This is when you include Pizza, so for most mobs, you would be good with 400 Base (No Pizza) ACC. Though this would be overkill for *many* mobs that cap out at 420 or so.

    Good info, I asked something similar a while ago but didn't get a good answer.

    Well, for Polearm it's still the best even with 8 merits and +51 Acc from other gear(not including mantle).
