Bit of a nub question

[Godlywargod]

I have enough money on me to buy one of the following:

1) A PCC
2) A cerb mantle(ls doesn't kill hnms yet)
3) Dusk gloves + save 500k

now #1 is an upgrade for my sam, #2 for my pld and nin, #3 for my nin

Sam is my main, I'm on it 90% of the time, Nin isn't fully leveled(72), and pld gets used only when we are short on tanks.

I'm leaning towards the PCC but can't descide

I also tried camping Argus and went 0/14 so far.

Just wanted input on what I should do.

[Thorny]

Cerb mantle is garbage if your LS doesn't kill HNMs. Dusk gloves are useful for paladin and samurai as well as ninja, get the gloves and use spectacles on SAM and NIN <_<

[Godlywargod]

Dusk gloves are useless for my sam, well they'd add 3 attack to my setup now.

I guess I should have been more exact about my "doesn't kill HNM" I meant nothing really big.

[Seditedi]

3 atk and 3% haste*
You do have a 6 hit right? Adding more haste onto a 6-hit is worthwhile.

[Godlywargod]

to maintain my 6-hit I'd have to give up my fumas, so no I don't gain 3% haste.

[Seditedi]

Either way, they are worthwhile for you to have for both PLD (if you don't have Homam) and NIN then you can just swap your 6 hit around to use Hachiman Feet/Dusk Gloves instead of Hachiman Hands/Fuma Sune-Ate.
Dusk Gloves would benefit all 3 of your jobs the most, Cerberus Mantle isn't really worth it over Dusk for you imo.

[Zarath]

Dusk gloves, too many jobs benefit from it at the end, PCC next but there's alternatives, most useful I find for MNK other than that my acc is enough in most cases on other jobs.

Cerb mantle is the least important imo.

[Tricen]

I'd go for PCC... Dusk gloves are ok, but pcc can be used a lot more and good for capped stuff.

[Rautha]

there is nothing better than a sam with 6hit-haste setup <3 go with dusk i'd say

even with meat on exp camps you hit pretty nice. merit GK skill and you don't need PCC. additionally...you dont do HNM...so no need for insane high acc. chiv chain is just fine (justice torque would be godlike though)

3%haste and 5 attack > all (even various kots) with stacked haste

dusk then for NIN are awesome and PLD (until you have homam hands)!

for gods sake... dusk gloves it is!
:D

[shaddix]

PCC :D

[Seig]

Dusk >> PCC >> Mantle

Haste on Dusk Beneficial to your SAM, NIN and PLD/NIN (at least til Homam)

Cheaper alternatives to PCC; Sea Torques, Chiv., Spectacles, etc..

Cerb mantle; go Forager's or Amemet+1 if you're using on DD jobs. PLD&NIN, get a Resentment cape if you want Enmity+. it's free and Easy NM to kill, Or throw your gil towards a Boxer's Mantle.. Useful on both PLD and NIN.

[Shuemue]

Would get PCC personally.

[Secksi]

Cerb mantle, unless HQ, is a waste of gil(and even then....). If you want enmity go for resentment cape or high breath, if you want a str/atk mantle, there's better ones that are cheaper out there.

Doesn't Sam need chiv chain for 6 hit anyway? maybe not....I don't know much about it.

I'd probably go with Dusk, you're gonna be eating sushi on ninja most of the time anyway, pcc won't magically stop that. 3% haste will help you out more for pld and nin. If you've killed argus 14 times already then something tells me it's best you keep doing that and just hold out for rare/ex. I personally can't stand that camp, and always get bored after an hour.

[Seditedi]

No. SAM only needs like.. Store TP+11ish from gear with full merits in Store TP for a 6 hit setup with a 450 Delay GKT.

[layoneil]

Brutal + Rajas + one of:
Askar Korazin
JSE Hands
JSE Feet/Usukane Feet

i'd Dusk > Peacock > Cerb

[tyven]

dusk

[Godlywargod]

I don't have sea(working on it >.>) so I use askar + hachi(now feet was hands) + chiv.

It's not through lack of trying that I don't have sea, it's that I end up going 1/13 on a mission and then get pissed and don't want to see it again(people suck :/)

[Seditedi]

Brutal + Rajas + one of:
Askar Korazin
JSE Hands
JSE Feet/Usukane Feet

i'd Dusk > Peacock > Cerb

Yea so that makes Store TP +11.
1 from Brutal 5 from Rajas 5 from JSE/Askar or 7 from Usukane.

dusk

[Charismatic]

Cerb mantle, unless HQ, is a waste of gil(and even then....). If you want enmity go for resentment cape

Seconding the resentment cape, I read this post like 15min ago, I was resentment capeless, and now I have one.

It can be that easy to get. Don't count on it though, NM is 21hr repop, he just happened to be up when I was going to plant my character there for later.
