What does the Increased Trick Attack dmg do exactly? Is it worth spending the coins to recieve these for a non-main job thf? I got the apollyon item last night and finally looked at the THF AF+1... this is the only piece I am even considering.

For reference, I usually use Dusk or War gloves for tping and Custom M Gloves for Ws. No I dont have Hecatomb hands, because i'm mage main. Although i'm hoping I can get them now that my shell is starting sky again soon.

Thanks! :D

Some people will tell you that it provides a 15% bonus to your AGI. I've never seen formal evidence to suggest this is true, just handwaving and people asserting that it's so.

I'm not a thf so i'm prolly wrong but someone once told me it added like a second hit or something of that sort, prolly bullshit though

Probably just increases the AGI modifier on Trick Attack by some small arbitrary percentage.

Yep, bullshit!

I don't have any parses or hard numbers, but from what I noticed when I just got them and went to Sauromuge to test, it increased damage on TA by around 20%. Not an official number, but it's what the average increase for me was :D

It is + .15, this was tested quite a bit back when they were put in. With 100 AGI the resulting TA dmg was as if you had 115, so they're basically like a pair of Seriyu's Kote for TA if you have at least 100 AGI (+D15, +D18 for SATA). They're worth it for TA splits, TAWS, SATA and since the other pieces of thf +1 are junk (body/legs are decent but have other alts) and you dont have heca, get them. Even if/when you get heca they'll remain a macro piece, especially if you have enough attk/agi to make them worth using.
