What's Better?

[Foxer]

SAM can't wear Epona's. Outside of Atk/TP bonus Moonshade earring, and HQ helm, your SAM WS set looks fine. Pyrosoul and Ace's mail are upgrades as well, but not by much, and can be pricey/gay to get.

[Exael]

Loki's or Mirke with proper augs for COR

wondering which wins for WF? and are what about athos's body, would assume it beats both?

Questions, got a few things i need figured out.

wats better for: Mandau (mercy stroke) ws neck, justiciar's torque or ele gorget
Mandau (Mercy stroke) ws belt, prosilio belt, or ele belt

or percept bow: dmg 93 agi +7 ratk +14 increases crit hit dmg

And while I'm askin', my SAM's Shoha build:

Head: Mekira Oto
Neck: Breeze Gorget
Ear1: Brutal Earring
Ear2: Kemas Earring
Body: Avant Mail +1
Hands: Unkai Kote +2
Ring1: Flame Ring < Epona's again
Ring2: Rajas' Ring
Back: Unkai Sugemino < Exchangable with Atheling Mantle?
Legs: Unkai Haidate +2
Feet: Unkai Suneate +2

Mostly looking for a "big" improvement in a specific slot rather than side grading... but please suggest away.

If you can get more stp during tp build, Unkai Haidate+2 -> Avant +1
Earring you can try TP Bonus Earring

Percept Bow for Apex. But overall, probably Vision Bow

Mandau :
(Maybe) Justiciar + Prosilio

Which body set would be better for blu, Toci's harness/+1 head or Mextli/+1 head?

Assuming 10% DA and 5% TA from traits and DWIII while subbing /war.

And if applicable, which would excel in what situations? Target mobs would be VWNMs.


Also for WS, which would be better Kacura +1 or athos's with other set pieces used being legs and hands?

Mextli is only for crit+ to other parties members in terms of damage, I have oce+1/toci's ahead on supposed VW mobs.

Moonshade(Attack+4 TP Bonus +25)/Brutal best combo for Shoha/UF/Rudras/Hi? Or are there better options?

[Dathus]

Loki's or Mirke with proper augs for COR

Loki's for the sTP and Miser's Roll combo wins out IIRC

[Neisan]

Moonshade(Attack+4 TP Bonus +25)/Brutal best combo for Shoha/UF/Rudras/Hi? Or are there better options?

Pretty sure tp bonus wins for at least UF/Rudra/Shoha, unsure on Hi but pretty confident it does there as well.

[Aragon of Odin]

Thank you ^^

Loki's for the sTP and Miser's Roll combo wins out IIRC

Ugh... that depends on the rest of your STP gear and what miser roll amount you roll... If you're just riding Miser/Regain and don't give a fuck about /ra or STP then Mirke wins.

If you need the STP, then Loki's because it's such a minimal loss for 7STP. Your STP conciderations will change depending on what miser roll amount you roll so if you dont nee dthe STP on WS to maintain whatever xhit you're dealing with then use Mirke. If you really give a fuck about maximising you can look at making multiple TP, QD and possibly WS sets and use them depending on what you roll for misers. I currently have 6 different TP and QD sets that cover me for any combination of 5/8/9/10/11 Miser inside and outside of Voidwatch.

[Atoreis]

99 Ragnarok vs 99 Ukon for mighty strike? (assuming 16% for 2.5dmg with Ragnarok and 40%ODD for Ukon and 300TP at start) EDIT: Oh yeah Upheavel during MS for this outside of one 200TP ukko for AM up.
Same weapons for weak mobs outside of VW (aka no atmacite and temps)? Assuming you can 6 hit Ragnarok with (rose/white tathlum/houyi/brutal/6stpArmada/Ogierhands/Rajas/goading for 51STP and 3/5 hits on resolution with ogier hands/rajas/brutal/rose)?

[grevenilvec75]

Best EVA body for DNC? I got Athos's Tabard tonight and it looks like a winner.

[Byrthnoth]

It does

[grevenilvec75]

It does

So I guess this means i can finally ditch Aurore body then?

[Byrthnoth]

So I guess this means i can finally ditch Aurore body then?

Yep! I'm intending to if I ever get a Tabard.

[Aragon of Odin]

Rudras Storm Rajas/Thundersoul or Thundersoul/Thundersoul? Or is there a better combo? Like Eponas/Thundersoul or something?

Edit: Might as well just ask for an Optimal set up for Rudras, will be used on THF mainly for Dyna, not really familiar with THF too well so any help will be appreciated.

Would that be a better evasion body for MNK over Usukane (what I currently use)?

[Nightfyre]

It offers the highest total evasion and dAGI increase of any body in the game, so as a straight evasion body it is indeed your best option. It obviously also offers 5% critdmg and if you're also using the feet, 3% critrate. If you're looking for some mixture of evasion and DPS in your body choice then that may be a different story.
