You are one giant troll or have no skills in using internet.

The imps in Vunkerl will use Frenetic Rip. I haven't seen the wamouracampa in attohwa use cannonball though.

I had actually forgotten that there were imps in Vunkerl... Good call, lol.

I've been wanting the same. ZAM/Wiki/KI/FFXIAH all are pretty barren/outdated/useless. I've been mostly asking as many questions as possible here on BG. I've got some decent gear sets down..still would like to know more though..

Gear sets so far: http://www.ffxiah.com/player/Quetzal...hida#item-sets
I will add VS when I start working on the trials. I'm not even 90 yet so meh.

Guard procs approximately 5% of the time on anything that matters, possibly more on EM (no higher than T) and below mobs.

For head on AF Tantra+2/Aias and Heafoc should beat both Tokon etc. (MKD head if it isn't tied up elsewhere is an option), +2 gloves and faith torque give base damage increase at 90 with 8/8 H2h merits so swapping to Agasaya's is most likely unnecessary,

Shura Zunari Kabuto for AF and for Vsmite (+1 if you have money but you probably doesn't since you just starting) is the best head available now.

Hadn't seen any of the new augments on those admittedly.

I've read that thing before, I did however miss the part about the weakness being locked in. Also I didn't see anything about staggering with Yurin: Ichi, which is the only thing I've cast that happened to trigger a weakness.

So unless you bring a blm, brd, whm, nin and blu, or some combination of those jobs/SJs with the listed spells there is no guarantee you can stagger grellow. Got it.

No, you didn't.

If you staggered with yurin: ichi that certainly wasn't in abyssea which is completely different system. You pretty much need to read whole thing on wiki because you seems to know nothing about it.

No, you didn't.

couldn't resist ^^

[bigrougabagel]

Exactly, which is why there is a random question thread. I was obviosuly not fully understanding what I read which is why I came here for a bit o clarification. I've got enough to go on now. Thanks for the info.

I'm confused. Are you saying to use Heafoc Mitts or to use +2 gloves?

Shura Zunari Kabuto for AF and for Vsmite (+1 if you have money but you probably doesn't since you just starting) is the best head available now.

Aias Bonnet is better than Shura Head and Tantra+2. How did you overlook that?

[Rocl]

I thought Shura Head augmented was pretty killer now?

Oh what can it get augmented with? Sorry he didn't say "augmented shura" so I just took it as the base helm, lol.

[Phoenyx]

From the thread in the crafting section, I can see a case for a WS Damage+2% and DEX+4 augment bein' good. Not as many results for Shura head as some of the other pieces, though.

HQ1:
Weapon Skill Damage (1%)
and one of the following:
Resist Gravity, Resist Bind, Fire Resist, Ice Resist, DEX (1-3), Conserve TP (2-3), Attack (3-5), Skillchain Damage (1-2%), Magic Evasion (4)

HQ3:
Weapon Skill Damage (1-2%)
and one of the following:
DEX (2-4), Conserve TP (5), Attack (6), Skillchain Damage (2%)

I like to think he was talking about it augmented w/ some form of WS DMG+%, DEX, and Attack? I guess.

[Nishida]

Nice, hmm..I'll notate that on my set so I remember.

For clarification..Heafoc Mitts vs. Tantra+2 Gloves?

Well obviously I was talkign about augmented ^^ I'm not genius but I know 8(Aias) is more then 5 or 6(shura nq/hq)

WS +1% already beats Aias inside. Outside it depends on dDEX.
WS +2% beats everything inside including MKD STR/AGI one (obviously).
HQ with WS +2%/+4DEX beats everything everywhere*

*WS +2% crit damage +2% might beat it inside abyssea.

First relic, I'm buying it all. Should I be running my coffer into the ground buying as fast as I can? I guess a more accurate question would be is the supply of currency in bazaar over a two month period enough to fund spharai? If not, I should be buying it like mad, if so, then I can be a bit more leisurely since the currency is still going to be there waiting.

[Atoreis]

What are the best uses for MKD heads?
