Ironically, Maneater/Ridill (long considered trash) are currently the best weapons in the game for DRK, and they'll be even better at level 90. >.>

Yeah that was woodville's/dainslaif (just recapping sword). Rampage beats my guillotines/SS by a wide margin. It's sad really. I love the job, but they keep pushing the magical shit on us while our dps flounders. Shouldn't have to go to a B- weapon to stay competitive.

Just came back to the game recently and trying to gear my Sam. Not far into Magian Trials with GKT and got an Ishi yesterday, so gonna gear around that for the time being. So my question is..
Store TP needed in WS and TP Phases to maintain a 5 hit with 465 delay and 480 delay weapons?

This will work for you, too. 3.67 has an incorrect value for the Raider's Boomerang, though; it's 3%, not 5%.

If woodville's/dainslaf is beating Scythe...
brb buying an Organics.
Hannibal's would be decent too

what's repop on brooder? one hour on the dot or something else? went 1/1 earlier today but let a friend have them, so have to keep going...

So if I did this right, TPing with Ishi + Sword Strap and 68 STP(including merits) and WS with 48STP(including merits), that will give me a 5 hit correct?

Real question is, Why use sam when you have a respectable war? Sam is trash unless you have fudo. <3 and miss you Ara.

that too

I know, War is Godly in Abyssea, but outside Sam is still fun, and I'll be working on getting Fudo one way or another. Just wanna be sure so long as I'm using Sam, that I'm using it right. I miss you too big guy, along with the rest of the Odin crew.

After capping azure/pearl lights, what is a good mob to farm TE on in La Theine with 5-6 people?

Only times I've farmed TE were on mobs that don't give ruby, and just about everything in La Theine appears to give ruby (if wiki is accurate). Does this even matter much?

Question about earth carol II and glavoid. I read someone on an earlier post say it was a 100% proc on dmg null with AF3+2. is that from the set bonus? with out af3+2, can you still get enough skill(I assume) to make the null proc commonly enough to counter gorge/disgorge? on a related note, can you counter disgorge by tanking behind it like minhacao?(sorry, no experience with the fight)

Should I be using Unkai +1 legs over byakkos? My understanding it only adds .5% haste with hasso up over byakkos?

ROM/5/81.dat should be it.

Lowest man strat for both Shoggoth and Farucca Fly? Need it for MNK trial and assume I can just tank both on it, so MNK + RDM/DRK + BRD I'm assuming?

[Yugl]

I would do BLU instead of BRD for Shoggoth and use Poison Pots.

That or Tactical if you need STP.

We usually do it on saplings.
