Thank you.

Well pre abyssea best would be to team up with some blu who was killing them anyways. Now you can just go fight some in abyssea and with the crit rate being what it is and NMs that spam the move it's pretty easy

How much Dex should you shoot for to cap ddex on most mobs outside?

I thought Frenetic Rip was considered a stance hence, they wouldnt do it inside abyssea?

Nvm, didnt read the NM part, lol.

Imps in abyssea use it anyways, don't need to worry about breaking horns.

MP
Cure Potency
MND

Wait, are they actually best in slot for legs eva outside of hakama? Probably wouldn't swap them out but I'm still fairly unfamiliar with most of the new gear in the past 2months.

Dominion legs can get some combination of eva and AGI that makes them potentially better for pure evasion but not by any margin that makes giving up 4 haste worthwhile in the current environment, didn't get anything new last update.

Was unable to get bakka or the imps around him to use it once, so what mob should i target in aby? On a plus side i did know out 25 spells and 60+ skill lvls lol. thanks again for any input.

Do pet PDT weapons stack with Ducal Guard, or does the 50% gear/atma cap apply to pets also?

**Mercilessturtle** · 2011-08-16 09:31

The imps in vunk definitely use it.

**NotGreyheim** · 2011-08-16 09:37

Thinking of redoing ACP finale to make an evasion/fast cast Mrike. Would there be anything more preferable for someone who primarily plays blu and thf?

**Aja** · 2011-08-16 10:02

Can Cursed Mufflers be tier 1d?

they do stack and pet PDT caps at -87.9%

**Ricekid** · 2011-08-16 15:13

Does Andvaranauts stack with THF gilfinder or is it like Bandolero Scarf and work for non thf only?

**TacoTaru** · 2011-08-16 16:58

Is there any piece of BRD AF/AF+1 worth holding on to these days outside of body+1 for String Skill+10?

**Haborym** · 2011-08-16 17:23

All of it. In your storage slip.

**Jaregue** · 2011-08-16 17:33

maybe a dumb question, but do the nm kills in nyzul count for magian trials?

If you dont have nusku's sash yet on thf (I fucking hate trying to fish nahn up so much atm)then acp DW body is more damage than previous setups during tp.

If you don't want to put that much work into WHM, you can get a curing set and a refresh set and you'll still do fine.

If you want to put a lot of work into WHM, you can get sets for PDT/MDT(Put refresh in other slots), Refresh(Put PDT/MDT in other slots), Curing(Cure potency to 50%, then MND), enfeebling(Macc, Enfeebling skill, MND), nuking(MAB, MND, macc, divine skill), Devotion(HP), -HP for medicine ring if you have it, Haste/Fast cast(You can start just about all your spells in this), HMP(I think 1 refresh is as good as 4HMP), Barspells(Stuff that specificly enhances it first, enhancing skill second), melee(Even if you don't DD, Accuracy will help if you're doing WSs for blue proc), and WS. Plus a few misc pieces like regen and stoneskin gear.

Question of my own, I'm leveling synergy atm and am only interested in augmenting gear. What synergy skills should I upgrade?
