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

Just lower chance than a DC.

I was looking at the spellcast thread and there's an outdated SCH set, so I'm looking for a more current set of builds:

Cure4 potency set, 500 skill set, anything else I'd really need, tbh.

**Rehn** · 2012-04-16 23:12

input /equip main "Arka IV";
input /equip sub "Pax Grip";
input /equip ammo "Leisure Musk";
input /equip head "Selenian Cap";
input /equip body "Heka's Kalasiris";
input /equip hands "Augur's Gloves";
input /equip legs "Praeco Slacks";
input /equip feet "Teal Pigaches";
input /equip neck "Phrenic Torque";
input /equip waist "Pythia Sash +1";
input /equip back "Vates Cape";
input /equip ring1 "Metanoia Ring";
input /equip ring2 "Trooper's Ring";
input /equip ear1 "Novia Earring";
input /equip ear2 "Loquacious Earring";

Haven't updated it too much since SCH isn't something I use very often, but this gets the job done for me. Sirona ring for example should have a place now in the ring slot, etc. Selenian has cure pot and MND+fastcast.

**Dathus** · 2012-04-16 23:38

Thanks for that. But looking for sets I'd need in addition as a Neo-Nyzul SCH, like nuking, the enhancing, idle, etc etc etc.

Also, what merits to put in?

Yeah, they fixed it supposedly.

Is there anyway to do the quest The beast inside (Blue Limit break for 75, maat fight) without having to do all the stuipd ass af gear quest before?

**Reg** · 2012-04-17 03:42

So last night i got Thaumas Body, and i'm confused of what to use as TP Gear now. Is AF3+2 and AF2+2 with thaumas body still better even if it's 1% less haste than the other set or should i switch back to haste hands or feet? thanks in advance

RNG doesn't need haste for shooting.

1. Are there any good guides out there for the job, or a blog written by someone who plays COR a lot?
2. What are the favored subs for it these days? I used to see /NIN and /RNG, but now am seeing more /RDM and /SAM.
3. Do COR shoot for TP these days and if so, when to switch from Trailer's/Archer's/Hawker's to Vulcan's?
4. Aquiline Belt vs. Impulse Belt, or something else? Have both on a mule as random drops from my BST.
5. Similarly, Libeccio Mantle vs. Navarch's Mantle, or other? Again, I randomly acquired both from BST-related shenanagins.
6. Armageddon looks like a good Empyrean - assuming I take up the job, is it worth the work? The path to it doesn't look too bad - am I missing something?

Thanks!

This has already been answered but since I am main cor and love it, I want to answer, too!

1)No clue, but keep asking here and you'll get all the answers you need!

2) I go mostly /blm. MAB2 and +2 Base int I think over /RDM. I dick around /RNG sometimes when I want to barrage things. And I'd go /SAM if I had it. If you want DMG /BLM or /RDM ... bust out TP quickly /SAM and /RNG.

3)I shoot for TP a bit but it's here and there. I have 0 Daggers. Vulcan's full time.

4) Use both for different things. Aquiline for Fire Shots. Impulse for Ranged Attack macro.

5) Same with Navarchs vs. Libeccio.

6) Arma is fucking sick and amazing and I am awesome when using it, so pretty much anyone who can use Arma is awesome. However, not everyone has a good Arma setup, sooo yea.

Enhancing, Enfeebling, Elemental ?

Maybe Healing instead of Enfeebling.

Did you mean SCH only merits? Cause I went Sub/Helix, Enlighten/Storm

lol i forgot to mention its for THF my bad >_<!

**Cairthenn** · 2012-04-17 03:54

Not sure what job you're referring to, but I'm pretty sure Thaumas Coat is the best TP body for all listed jobs (Dancer may be an exception? I have no clue).

**Reg** · 2012-04-17 04:11

Ok sorry if i'm too vague, what i meant is that from what i have read lately the best TP set for thf isnt capped haste since you are using af3+2 hands and AF2+2 feet. But with thaumas body i'm dropping yet another % of haste (4% versus raider's 5%) so i was wondering if that % doesn't make a difference or if i should switch back another option for hands or feet. Hope that was more clear.

**Cairthenn** · 2012-04-17 04:27

Oh I see. Athos's will be better if you need the Accuracy or the DEX (not that you'd generally know this..) benefits you. Otherwise, stick to Assassin's +2 feet. Thaumas Nails are probably better option anyways, potentially barring if you have Mandau (or are getting a lot of attack buffs - does that happen on THF?).

Also, if you have Marches, any Haste +3 feet will pull ahead.

Yea, I was meaning SCH only merits, and I was thinking that path tbh. Thanks for confirming the thought.

Yea, I'm looking for all those sets. I don't like taking a job and doing it half-assed.

**Reg** · 2012-04-17 04:41

allright thanks for the reply, i'll just use the body for now with the usual sets until i get more thaumas, and i do have mandau and no we don't get attack buffs often on THF lol (only if u are zerging something that needs TH and we are with some DD's)

**altwight** · 2012-04-17 09:41

Anyone know where I can find some math on Mandau vs Twashtar? Google wasn't any help/.

I think it's a common enough question this days that warrants a link in my sig, haha. I think most of the sets are up to date. A lot can be improved, specially with NeoNyzul stuff, but it should be enough to outperform 99% of the SCHs out there.

As for merits, 5/5 sublimation, 5/5 Helix, 5/5 Stormsurge, 5/5 Enlightenment. There's debate, but I like them this way. None of them is gamebreaking.
