    Yeah, even when I go up there on my gimp-as-hell BST for farming up some sky gods, even one of my lolRampages takes out a good 25-35% of their HP. If a Fudo SAM can barely do double that with a self-SC? Something's terribly wrong. xD

The B Haidate set is best when inside abyssea or outside when all the dex pushes your crit rate to cap, usukane shoes for when you need acc or the DEX is not required/doesn't work outside abyssea. You can also use AF3+2 body with either of these sets, if its more useful.

    EDIT: Either way, none of those sets are that far apart and it honestly just comes down to what you have available or feel like getting, not even 99 yet! So I wouldn't worry to much about it unless you really want to be teh bestest ninja evur!!! or youre just OCD and need to collect everything that could remotely be useful at some point in time like me.
    I said in my first post that it was excluding Usukane or Crit Hit Haidate since those are actually pretty hard to get for most people these days.

    Haidate is not something that is hard to get these days, usukane takes time but it is in no way hard to get.

    Usu feet is pretty easy to get, just depends on your luck.

    Any ninja with a mage could duo byakko, ulli and despot, and a good ninja could solo them, haidate are ridiculously easy to get. Usukane you need some luck and 2 friends or a mule and 1 friend or 1 friend with a mule, also not difficult.

    I might be misinterpreting but I think the argument was for crit-rate-specific haidate, not necessarily the base itself. I'm not sure how random the augments are but that's how I interpreted the statement.

    It is for crit damage haidate. Which are augemented from byakko seals, which you will get while getting haidate. And its pretty easy to get crit damage 4 on haidate. It should not take more then 20 craps unless you are really unlucky. Getting crit damage 4 with something else good could take a bit though.

    Fucking. Bees.

    Done a bunch of Salvage post-update to help a friend get Usu feet. Never had the bloody rampart NMs pop. They may have upped 35 drop rates, but ramparts are still soul-destroying, and I hate them so very very much.

    0/24 on crit dmg +4, highest ive gotten is 3. A lot of HQ3s but only agi+5 and store tp +5, couldnt get any crit damage on those.

    Not to mention the cost involved in buying Byakkos Seals or the time involved in farming them, the luck, and the fact you need to find a synergist to do it for you (I personally don't know I single person with synergy). And farming Usu is completely luck based, I tried to get them for six months right after Salvage came out and only saw one 35 ever, never again. You also have to farm assault points and find friends willing to waste their time to not ever see 35 feet.

    I had the same experience when doing salvage regularly. There would be 3 scenarios and in order of which occurred the most it was:

    1- no nms, rmapart dies and we get a piece of alex
    2- multiple nms, no af
    3- multiple nms, multiple pieces of gear

    It was either no gear or 3+ pieces.

    I've done Bhaflau about a dozen times in the last month and not seen a single NM pop. I let the Ramparts take themselves to 50% and then finish them off, so I generally get three Ramparts in per run. I don't bother popping the 3F one and always go for LBC. Bhaflau 35s are the hardest to get now, I think.

    They've always been the toughest/most annoying to get imo, mainly because it's random lolbees luck. You have to pop the rampart, which isnt hard. But that rampart has to pop nms, which you have (likely) zero control over. Then those nm, if they pop need to drop what you want. There are so many places where the lolbees can screw you and it's awful.

    Back in the day, SSR was far and away the worst.
