    The mythological triple attack procs like once in a blue moon when Saturn and Neptune are aligned while Leprechauns dance macarena. I know there's a lot of DRGs out there who swear by jumping in Homam Corazza but either I got really really unlucky when I first got H.Corazza or there's something mysterious about it that I don't know but after a month I went back to using Barone Corazza for jumps for added TP at least. Pants are Barone too, rest of jump gear is pretty bog standard WS gear.

    Re: Jump/Hi-Jump gear

    I have a different macro for Jump and HJump, but they basically use the same as WS gear with small changes.

    /lazy, just copying text file.

    Jump
    input /equip ammo "Tiphia Sting";
    input /equip head "Hecatomb Cap";
    input /equip neck "Peacock Charm";
    input /equip ear1 "Brutal Earring";
    input /equip ear2 "Assault Earring";
    input /equip body "Ares Cuirass";
    input /equip hands "Wyrm Fng.Gnt.";
    input /equip ring1 "Rajas Ring";
    input /equip ring2 "Mars's Ring";
    input /equip back "Cerb. Mantle +1";
    input /equip waist "Wyrm Belt";
    input /equip legs "Galliard Trousers";
    input /equip feet "Hct. Leggings";

    With Jump gear you have the VIT mod to consider, but you still want to keep on enough acc to keep the jump accuracy around 90-95%. On rougher mobs I'll put on more acc, like optical hat and/or homam corazza. I also decided to sell Conte, but ideally you probably want to keep that on (even if NQ).

    High Jump:
    input /equip ammo "Tiphia Sting";
    input /equip head "Ace's Helm";
    input /equip neck "Peacock Charm";
    input /equip ear1 "Brutal Earring";
    input /equip ear2 "Assault Earring";
    input /equip body "Homam Corazza";
    input /equip hands "Wyrm Fng.Gnt.";
    input /equip ring1 "Rajas Ring";
    input /equip ring2 "Mars's Ring";
    input /equip back "Cerb. Mantle +1";
    input /equip waist "Wyrm Belt";
    input /equip legs "Wyrm Brais";
    input /equip feet "Homam Gambrieras";

    HJ doesn't have a mod, it appears. So the main concern is just accuracy to land it, since the most important part is the TP you get. AF2 legs also useful here for increasing the amount of enmity it sheds.

    Best set for J/HJ IMO though is full Ares, without a doubt.

    TA proc'ed on my very first HJ after getting Homam body. Go figure.

    As others have said, using WS gear is fine, though you probably won't see much of a difference at lower levels. You could also use +VIT gear in slots that don't have better alternatives (I'm looking at you, Bibiki Seashell). AF1 feet are pretty good too, as the enhanced chance at crit'ing can be useful.

    Personally, I jump/high jump in my TP gear, as I can't stand blinking in/out any more than I need to. I find it annoying, especially when soloing, but that's just me.

    TP Gear:
    Thalassocrat
    Pole Strap
    Tiphia Sting
    Walahra Turban
    Askar Korazin
    Dusk Gloves
    Homam Cosciales
    Homam Gambieras
    Uthalam's/Raja's
    Brutal/Assault (Ethereal)
    Forager's Mantle
    Swift Belt
