Random Question Thread XXVI: The Rise and Fall of the RQT

[grevenilvec75]

I'm sure the answer is "No.", but figure I'll ask anyway.

WAR relic +2 legs augment doesn't allow WS to crit that don't normally crit, do they?

[Kamil]

What's the best WS legs for Ukko's now? Since Ogier's was discovered to be only affecting the first hit.

I thought people were only talking about Phorcys affecting the first hit. Now Ogier's is supposed to only be first hit, too?

Anyone got a link to COR sets? Just finished Armageddon so trying to gear it up.

Edit: Second question gonna repost in spellcast thread.

Thanks!

[Patb]

Finished leveling WHM and not really sure how I should be gearing, and what sets I need and everything. Could anyone post some sets so I know what to be working on? Havn't started doing VWNM yet since I've just come back to the game. Any help is appreciated.

[Yugl]

How important is the HQ version of Adaman Hauberk for the relevant WAR TP set? Does this apply to DRK as well (If used at all)?

[Ricekid]

Going to finish up Almace soon. What is the best CdC set for Blu assuming no Thaumas(working on it)? I am mainly going to use it for VW and Neo Nyzul

Here is what I had in mind

Almace/Str/X/Thunder Satchel
Ocelo Head+1/Rancor Collar/TP moonshade/Brutal
Toci/Enkidu Mitt/Rajas/Thundersoul
Atheling/Cuch Belt/Athos Tights/Athos Boots

Athos gloves dont exist for me :/ Is there any other good alternatives for hand slot? Thanks BG!

[Neisan]

Myrmex gloves if you get lucky in Radiance... Mirage+2 has a slight lead over Enkidu.

Thundersoul > Epona Cuch > Wanion (fstr uncapped/pdif capped iirc)

Collar > Moepapa (acc capped) Atheling > Rancorous, while better you can stick to collar/atheling if you're not willing to get both.

[Mugekuge]

It's more for capping 95 pets like nazuna at 99, but yeah. You don't need the hands.

I'm pretty sure beast affinity only raises the cap of the pets. They will still be smned 0-2 lvls below the bst lvl without gloves.

Thanks Guitarman and Dasva but still got confused if pets will be same lvl as me without need of Relic hands+2

af2+2a when att is capped
Avant+1 when its not

Pets are always summoned 0-2 levels below you (or their cap, if it's lower than your level). The exception being AF2 hands, which make it 0-1 levels below you (or their cap), and AF2+2 hands, which make it the same level as you (or their cap).

Bottom line, you need AF2+2 hands on any pet.

[Aylee]

Way to beat rani w/o brew? Head butt/sudden lunge doesn't stick. Cant keep shell on tanks due to absorb effect on hits so gas/meter rape us.

[Squah]

Any good JA camp spots in Dyna-Windurst for solo BST? I need to get DRK relic hands for my entropy (and cata when I finish apoc) set, but if I can farm some coins in the meantime, would be awesome since I still need shells for stage 5.

And even then, they are just placeholders until Phorcys hands.

Reupping on this with added note: EP mobs, not DC. Need killspeed for more shots at AF.

[Byrthnoth]

Windy is a shitty, shitty zone to do for coins or AF. Assuming you're duo/trio, I recommend the three houses here on the right side of the loop:

If you pull/run right, you can kill mostly JA/WS monsters and can snipe the three NMs when they repop. It has been a while since I've done that zone, so I don't remember specifics.

[Churchill]

af2+2a when att is capped
Avant+1 when its not

/Ogier's still when ACC is needed (often)
/Hecatomb+1 attack capped//high level correction

[Squah]

Should I try to get abyss gaunts in Bubu instead? Thats where I farm nornally and over the past 40~ days of killing TE links and the occasional beastman when there are no other mobs around hasn't yielded much AF. 3 SMN hands and a whm cap are the only ones that come to mind.

went in with 3 bst 2 nights ago, best way i found was head to where the megaboss is popped then work toward the auction house. The bridge usually pops 2-3 ja mobs (random obviously) and theres a big pack in front of AH. Or, head to the sominal threshold and work outward. Only hesitation i'd have about your spot is the TE repopping immediately all the time on the left house is an issue, and the tight cluster of mobs in that area makes links a very real possibility.

@guy asking:
Really don't advise farming this place solo, it really does suck as much as people say. Only got 103 coins in a trio, and thats really, REALLY bad. 6 af pieces though. do buburimu if you can, nobody touches the beastmen mobs there, and theyre typically more spread out, making pulls safer for a soloist.

It's the beastmen in CoP zones that drop base AF2 pieces, not the nightmare mobs, so you should kill more of those I guess?

Armadaberk really isn't that relevant, you can get all of the store TP you need from the NQ so it just comes down to an extra 1 double attack. With the price of Etatters skyrocketing (on Odin anyway) and the extremely low chance of combining the necessary amount of STP with 3 DA, it's certainly not worth the price. Personally I'd feel gimp with NQ and have to whitebox it.

[Omnipotent]

Then your non-whitebox relics are gimp!
