What's Better?

[Michelob]

Entropy replicates fTP, so ele belt/gorget. Shadow works for both entro and cata, and is what I use. Spiral ring over icesoul since ice has -2 STR. +2 feet over dilaram's, phorcys/abyss+2 hands but you should have one of those two anyway.

Would link my (average, been back 3 months, solo'd apoc) set as a baseline but I'm on my shitty phone at work.

Thanks for the reply. What if you have a +7 int ring that doesn't have str-2? Still use Sprial or go with the INT+7? And what about ammo slot?

I'd still go with Spiral. As for ammo, I personally just use bomb core because I'm lazy and use the same set for entro and cata. You can use the INT+4 tathlum (egoist? Not sure), but catastrophe benefits more from the attack.

I'll make two separate WS macros once I get stuff that really splits the two, like ogiers legs and dilaram's. Minor increases, but increases are increases.

And personally, I'm not too impressed with Entropy sadly. Might be because of dhalmel with 114 STR and 80 INT base though. It's your best WS don't get me wrong, just not on the same plane as Shoha, Resolution, etc. The self-sufficiency of the mp convert is fucking amazing though.

[Michelob]

I didn't expect to be amazed by it but seeing as my apoc is only 95 still I should definitely have it. My other DD jobs that I actually use are MNK and WAR and are using empyrean WS's at the moment so Entropy seemed like a no brainer.

I have ruinator, Shoha and Entropy at 5/5. Ruinator has increased my average coin yield by 30% in dyna so that is staying at least until I find another efficient means of soloing other than on bst. Shoha doesn't see much use but back in the day before I quit SAM was my true love, although I may drop shoha, work on obtaining masa and just use Fudo, and merit reso in its place since I am now working on a Ragnarok. Doing my Apoc85 trial now after work so I haven't had the wep for too long, but I've been researching and theorycrafting for months.

I would save abju for HQ (even if ther eis small chance you will get it) and use af3+2 till ogier's.

Ok thank you.

[Omnipotent]

Avant +1 or Ogier's breeches for Ruinator

[Byrthnoth]

Shedir Crackows or AF2+2 feet for physical BPs? (probably Shedir)

That augment is freaking useless. At first I thought it was just +4 MAB per BP level.

[Taint]

Avant +1 or Ogier's breeches for Ruinator

Avant+1 unless you need the ACC.

[Nishida]

For BST TP in Abyssea and outside..inside using any combo of VV/RR/GH/MC/DG, outside using yellow or red curry buns.

Assuming the following gear:

Ferine body +2 vs. Avant Mail +1?
Gloves to wear until can afford Brego? Dusk maybe?
Belt to wear until can afford Moepapa? (prefer non-gil item)
Feet to wear? Ryuga Sune-Ate? Any non-gil option prior to these?

Ferine body +2 for sure if you're fighting things Killer effects apply to.
Gloves you could do Dusk +1, they're fairly cheap now.
Twilight belt perhaps for the waist. In the long run you may want to rejigger for Moepapa, but Twilight is still nice for other jobs.

For feet, if you're using Twilight Belt + +2 legs, +2 helm, and 4% gloves, you're at 24% Haste. At that point, you could use Perle. Or, if you're using the +2 body, you don't need Haste at all and can just use the +2 feet.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Twilight Belt. I'll probably end up using that, though the pet haste from moepapa is also nice. Perhaps I'd switch to it if I get it as a drop from dyna farming. Also totally forgot about haste cap. Ferine +2 feet and body it is. Thanks for the info!

[dasva]

bst set bonus is kinda meh.

Right now I do something similar but do oce+1, tocis, twilight belt and some haste feet. It over caps my haste so thinking of going back to moepapa belt. Your dps and getting tp much more important than your pets and that 2 regen really comes in handy long run

That's outside of course. Instead go all out on stuff that helps you and of course af3+2 body probably be better than toci's definitely if you fighting something you can killer instinct

THF AF2+2 feet: Don't upgrade, Use with AF3+2 hands for only 23% haste, Use and use haste hands for capped haste?

[pancakesandsex]

nevermind misread

[GoggleHead]

Icesoul Ring or Strendu Ring?

[noodles355]

THF AF2+2 feet: Don't upgrade, Use with AF3+2 hands for only 23% haste, Use and use haste hands for capped haste?

AF2+2 feet and af3+2 hands. (if using thaumas body+legs, I think thaumas hands might pull ahead, idr.)

[Yugl]

How the fuck did you understand that post?

[Atoreis]

THF AF2+2 feet:
1. should I bother to upgrade them at all?
2. Should I upgrade and use with AF3+2 hands for only 23% haste?
3. Should I upgrade and use with haste hands for capped haste?

[Bardlet]

For SCH Nuke legs: Literae Pants augmented with INT+3, or MAB+1 (haven't been lucky with augments yet, and I'm tired of Teal Slops ;-; )

[Kamil]

ACC+6 Crit DMG+4% Heca mitts +1 or Phorcys hands for Ukko's?
