No, Hope is better.


Because both.

On a follow-up then... Hope TP in also or is Iga neck still better?

Is /dnc ever more useful than /nin for RDM meleeing? Should I even waste time leveling it or will /nin always outperform it in every situation imaginable? Also, what is the best possible TP/WS gear for RDM melee @ 90?

except for status cures/too lazy to self cure no.

Almace/(Elemental Shamshir unless attack/accuracy capped)/xx/Smart Grenade/Astrolabe(this slot just sucks)
Zelus/Fort Torque/Brutal/Aesir
Goliard/Dusk(+1)/Rajas/(Mars/Excelsis)
Atheling/lol N Sash, otherwise V Belt or Goading/ASA or Calmenac/Dusk(+1)

HQ dusk as necessary to hit 26%.

Since assuming Almace... WS would follow same as Blu setup minus head being SCNM helm/MKD, Body being Antares, hands being Tarasque+1/AF+1, second ring being Thundersoul, feet being Rager/Lithe.

RDM got a couple new melee ammos last update. Oneiros Pebble (acc+4 VIT+5) and a DEX+4 ammo whose name escapes me at the moment, the latter obviously being excellent for CDC.

Autoexec question!

So I'm using PlasticSurgeon to change my race clientside but I don't want to type:
/race elvaan m
/face 2
everytime i log on or DC, can someone help me make an autoexec xml for this? Also does anyone know if you can alter Size in addition to race/face with plastic surgeon?

[Nightfyre]

Just put it in your init.txt.

you can do the login event also, but this only does it on the first login.

<register silent="true" event="login">race elvaan m;face 2</register>

Quick question! We split up Temenos 3|3 and were in the same PT for the initial hum. Now we get the message "You have clearance to enter Limbus, but cannot enter while you or a party member is engaged in battle." We broke and reformed PTs and none of the members in this PT are in battle. Any solution other than waiting till they finish?

[Vlint]

You have to wait.

Anybody in the pt or ally when the lvl cap symbol gets placed is considered eligible for entry to that zone only until it is finished. You'd have to enter as separate pt's and then ally after both pt's are in.

[Apelila]

Is there a good place to GOV for a lv 70 bst? I'm looking to start playing around with the caskets if possible but if there's nowhere available im willing to settle for fov for tab production.

Lowest 'high' level GoV is Zeruhn and thats 78+. I know because I'm in the same boat, War and Nin both hit 71 yesterday and now I need to skill up/break latents like a mother fucker.

Eldieme has some that are in the 50's killing coffer/G1 mobs.

Iga is better especially if you tank.

That's only true for one piece

8(zelus)+4(goliard)+5(goading)+3(legs)+3(dusk)+2(d usk)=25 - so you need only one HQ dusk for 26%

So I am starting to work on a Kannagi but really only do things duo with a friend. Bria so far has been no problem at all but I'm wondering about how to effectively farm the Kuku KI for the Sobek portion. Would Whm+War or Whm+Blu using Cleave or Whisker be able to farm KI's at a decent pace? If so which of those would farm better?

WAR if you want to finish sets doing NMs. Cleave is highly ineffective if you lack last one KI for example. Should cleave till some point then move to NMs or cleave when waiting for Guku.

[cdgreg]

Looking to farm my own Onerios sash. Do Odious Scale drop randomly off any mob? And lastly, how hard is Bladeburner Rokgevok?

[Dooom]

Aside from emps/relics, what would be considered an acceptable sword/shield combo for pld these days? Joytoy and Seigneur shield?

[Diddy Kong]

Until I get Apocalypse atma, what are the 3 choices, for various situations, for MNK NIN and DNC? RR+GH obviously, but is there any situation where I wouldn't use either of those for the three jobs listed? And unsure about the third until AA, guessing Atma of the Lion?

I'd go with Atma of the Dark Depths if you have it. All three of those jobs are pretty evasive anyway, and Dark Depths is going to auto-cap your evasion on damned near everything. You don't lose as much to the crit rate cap as you once did, either.

I don't have that one, I don't think.

[Kyte]

Was it ever resolved as to whether or not WS gorgets/belts work with level 3 SC properties (Light/Dark)?
