    In the best nuking set from a pure damage perspective, Nares Cuffs only add 2 INT in conjunction with the head, not 5. That is, Nares head, Morri+1 body, Nares hands, Akasha legs, Morri+1 feet. If you really want to compare Goetia Gloves +2 and Nares, you just need to look at the magic crit stuff, so math it out:

    Magic crit adds 10 MAB on proc. With Goetia+2 it adds 15 MAB on proc because of the magic crit damage bonus.

    Set 1: Nares Cuffs
    Assume 8% m.crit from Hecate's/Nares head, we can average this out to 10 MAB, 8% of the time = 0.8 MAB average.

    Set 2: Goetia +2
    Assume 8% m.crit from Hecate's/Nares head, +5% from Goetia+2 hands, averaged out at 15 MAB, 13% of the time = 1.95 MAB average

    So the Magic Crit related statistics on Goetia+2 hands can be equated to approximately 1.15 MAB.

    Nares Cuffs have 5 MAB over Goetia, so if we factor magic crit, the net difference is 3.85 MAB.

    3.85 MAB is always going to give you more damage than the 5 INT difference between Nares Cuffs and Goetia+2 hands, so Nares are always better for damage.

    I think Corus wins as a sub, but I'm not entirely sure.

    I use aluh/lux cause I don't have much else and I'm never doing another fire trial again after h2h and sword. But I also use evisceration cause I don't have exenterator because of 3 ws cap etc. I'd personally use coruscanti if I had one but some people live and die by str path magian off hand weapons. If you have both, try them out for a while. If you don't have the magian dagger I wouldn't bother making one if you have coruscanti.

    DRK:

    TPing in 22% DA or 13% DA 4% TA 5% QA

    i have been told DA comes before TA/QA but i dont know if its true...

    and if the latter wins, how about 25% DA vs 13% DA 4% TA 5% QA

    Its not even close, the TA QA options would be ahead by a lot if that is indeed the only tradeoff being made

    Yeah the mixed option is on average increases attacks per round as much as 34% da. Of course there are other concerns like over tp but meh

    Hi, I just got Fazheluo Radiant Mail from Voidwrought and was wondering if this and the helm would be better tp gear than DRG AF3+2 head/body combo or BST AF3+2 head/body combo. Thanks in advance.

    So I decided to resub and wanted to mess around with blu. I'm mainly using this guide but I was wondering what kind of tp set I can use for someone who quit around 95 cap.

    Would something like this work? Also wasn't sure what to use for a neck piece. I'm basically trying to build a set that doesn't include items from voidwatch/legion.

    NNI? If thats neo nyzul isle I don't have gear/or a group (if you need one) to get the gear. Just trying to figure out a set until I can get into voidwatch/legion/NNI and whatever else. I know this pretty much leaves me with only AH gear/abyssea.

    Set you have listed is fine for starting to do the events you listed. Can substitute homam hands/feet if you have them instead of dusk if you want. I personally hated swapping gear just to move around when I had dusk gloves. For neck I use rancor collar for TP. The extra damage taken is a non-issue most of the time. just make sure you have high tonberry hate to get the crit rate. Doesn't have to be capped hate.

    It has zero use for Drg.

    Best option for legs barring Huginn hose for Entropy?

    HQ Adaman Breeches or Ogier's?

    Also, does that one belt from Meebles (STR/INT+6, WS Acc +10) outdo an elemental belt?

    No on the belt. Entropy like a few other merit ws has fTP that applies to all swings and gorget/belt also apply to all swings on it. So best bet is ele gorget/belt.

    Thought so.

    The WS damage increase from Phorcys/Ogier's only applies to the first hit, right? Still having shitty luck on getting Twilight Mail to drop.
