Is loki's kaftan the best jin WS body for NIN?

Iga+2 is, afaik. Loki's is for Hi.

I've been looking around in the augmented gear thread but haven't found anything... what possible augments can I get on a Fire/Vulcan's Staff through FoV in Sky and/or Valley of Sorrows?

[Nishida]

Tantra Earring / Necklace worth using in any situations, and if so what situations would those be?

[Diddy Kong]

Anwig Salade augments? Getting waltz recast and unsure on second one, was thinking mab for brewing purposes?

MNK NIN DNC PUP BLU

Bumping

[Fereydoon]

Bumping

If it's being used for brewing WS damage +2% would outdo MAB, I'd think.

Okay, thanks. Wasn't sure.

Neck if faith doesn't bump you up a damage tier (and even then was pretty even with agasaya's which you can use elsewhere), earring if att,acc capped and no regain Moonshade.

[Shiyo]

When the magian trial weapons say something like "add affect: weaken's def: +15". what exactly is '15"? How much defense is it reducing? Would the str/attk sekka elemental magian katana be the best magian elemental katana, or are the add effect weaken def/evas better for DDing? ;_;

[Jem]

Could be wrong but I was always led to believe the '+15' amount was their proc rate.

Shadow breastplate with +1 trip att and 6 acc vs adaman hauberk with 4 store TP and 1 DA vs grim curiass
10 str -3 dex 25 att 11 acc 1 trip att vs 10 str 10 dex 15 acc 15 att 4 store TP 1 DA vs 15 str 30 att
Uncapped acc / att outside abyssea quietus

Since it didn't get answered in other thread gonna try my hat in this one by saying
Whats the best Quietus body peice ?

[Suteru]

99% new stuff that boost JA needs to be wear while doing action boosted by this JA not JA itself and Frac is like that too.

Thanks. I was worried about losing my Loki's while shooting, but I am a dumbass and forgot that I could just edit my XML to shoot in Loki's while Triple Shot is down and Frac +1 when it's up.

how can I purchase a US version of abyssea collection from the EU

Easiest way would be to find someone in the US to gift it to you on Steam, then paypal them the money.

It's random, but they're rubbish, generally. Sometimes people get lucky and get a good augment (MAB+2 is the best I've seen on an elemental staff I think) but it often takes a lot of attempts and (at least if you're doing it for a mage) you could just make an agni's staff that would be far superior.

Anyone know what Pugil is the PH for Sea Hog?

[Koyangi]

Does DG reduce magic damage too or just phys? And do avatar's have natural MDT like they have PDT?

[Byrthnoth]

It reduces all types of damage, and I don't think they do have MDT. They're resistant against particular elements though (1-2 per avatar), so as long as you get something that only casts stuff of one element you're generally okay.

Re: Haborym
Yeah. It's actually two Pugils in the .dats

Prolly asked a bajillion times already, but...

... does Critical Hit Damage (from Atma) have a cap?

Ex:
Sanguine Scythe + Razed Ruin = +50% Crit Damage
Sanguine Scythe + Razed Ruin = +60% Crit Damage
(circle one)



EDIT: Please, don't just go to wiki and reply! I'm asking 'cause I don't trust wiki... my searching on BG didn't go well -- but I'm really hoping for a link to a testing thread, from Kirschy or something

[Byrthnoth]

It used to cap at 50%, but now it caps at 100%.

So option 2

[Julian]

Just to add on to this, "atma caps" don't exist, and have never existed.

Nooby question :

Do you think Rani can be 4-manned? I know it can be brewed but we want to hold it for blue and stack TH and then kill it as we are all after an Epona's Ring, we are prepared to brew but it would be nice if we could kill it normally.

All jobs available pretty much.

I don't really see it being 4manned~ I would do something like WHM, MNK, THF, Brewer, and have the brewer hold there brew and try to squeeze 2 out.


Question: Low man strat for Vrtra? Want to try for funnsies, but haven't fought in 3ish years and that was done with like 20 people.
