What's Better?

[Kyte]

Given that Thurandaut Chapeau is used in the head slot now for Shun (I think?), Toci's isn't quite as attractive. I think Matanca would probably win on a 6-hit attack with a sub-1 fTP per hit.

Personally, I totally forgot Matanca even existed. It should be best whenever you don't need Toci's (or Iga's, which has more) accuracy.

How do you calculate stats for weapons skills like sanguine blade? IE Twilight Mail vs Phorcys. 15stats vs 7matt and WS DMG+?

Also, for Requiescat, should I be stacking STR and Attack due to the penalty? IE Twilight head/body vs Oto+1/Phorcys body.

Not sure what you asking. Calculate ws dmg like most other magical ws and see which one comes out ahead with the gear and stats youbuse

[Tricen]

Phorcys body is a little better than twilight mail. By like 40~ dmg.

Some questions about RUN, just levelled and I'd love to know what to equip as initial gear, as I work towards Skadi+1 or better.
Body & Legs would be thaumas for now, but I still have doubts for 3 other slots. These are the options I have already available to me:
Head: Ocelo+1, Zelus, Ganesha
Hands: Thaumas, Brego, uh...
Feet: Thaumas, Athos, Ghadhab >.>

Tbh I probably have much more and I just haven't noticed they are equippable by RUN as well.
What would you folks suggest? I was thinking Ganesha+Brego+Thaumas.

[Squah]

RUN can wear Thurandaut, So Hands and Feet are an option for haste (especially hands).

[Sechs]

For hands wouldn't Brego still be better damage-wise? I guess it depends if you need that 1% haste more or not.
As for feet I completely forgot Thura have 3% haste, but tbh if I can manage to reach 25/26 haste without using the feet slot, that allows me to equip Thaumas feet which should be an excellent TP piece damage-wise, no?

I dunno, maybe I'm focusing too much on damage but for the things I'm gonna use RUN for maybe I should shift my focus more towards survival.

Ocelomeh (? better option?)/Thaumas/Thurandaut/Thaumas/Thaumas with twilight belt is 26%. Brego vs Thur boils down to 6~ acc and a good chunk towards dDEX vs 1% haste (that you won't need) and 5 STR/AGI. Thurandaut is also free.

[Sechs]

Ocelo+1/Thaumas/Thura/Thaumas/Thaumas ==> 27% haste, 2hp/regen, lots of dex and agi more
Ganesha/Thaumas/Brego/Thaumas/Thaumas ==> 25% haste, 4% HP, 4% att, 5 STR

Uhm... Probably like the first one more tbf. Altough I would use Thura hands only for RUN so it's inventory+1 for a job that atm I don't even know how much I'm gonna use.

For Amano 95,

Is the best option to spam Kaiten, or ride the aftermath and spam Shoha?

Also anyone has any good TP/WS set for Amano/Kaiten that I can look at?

Thank you.

At 95 Shoha is probably your best bet on most mobs. Amano really needs to be 99 to be competitive. I bet some of the newer AH options beat it at 95.

Does Quauhpilli Helm beat out Ravager's Head +2 and Mekira-oto +1 for Ukko's Fury and Resolution?

Best for Reso on non-proc days.

What about for Ukko's?

[Modoru]

Manibozho Brais File:Manibozho Brais icon.png 99 Legs DEF:51 STR+12 DEX+12 Attack+15 Evasion+10 Haste+6%

so quick question, better than whirlwind dirs now or DA+3% still better? <_<

[Byrthnoth]

It's Khepri Kecks with a built in HQ augment and another 5 Attack/Evasion. For SA->MS it's certainly better, and if Khepri Kecks were better before then these are better now. Also, it's worth noting that Manibozho is the augmentable light-melee set.

[Modoru]

Yeah I realized~

But now I'm iffy on whether or not bothering with MS (for now), bc the new daggers

[mdkuser]

i bought khepri legs for 200M 3 weeks ago <.<

175M for me. Hi5!

[Arthars]

i told everyone to wait out for adoulin incase the materials opens up...

it didnt but i did not expect SE to allow NQ to be augmented......

they kind of break their own rule and system and just whoosh HQ abj out of the window in 1 patch >.> (but then they did for everything else too...)

29th April, is the release of the new FFXI

now we are fighting NMs that require old school /thf DDs and skillchain wooooooooo
