What's Better?

[Tricen]

Right, but you need to get homam and the arch omega piece to get it and I don't think I can solo either. I am pretty much solo when it comes to everything, so yeah

Well I was saying that both of those are from limbus not salvage. Also I believe regular omega became soloable at like 80 or 85. Gunna need more for arch though

[Arthars]

you can just buy the arch omega pieces ;o

NAs here in odin sell them at 6m which is really cheap and ruined my market,.... (i sold each 13m before adoulin)

as for salvage, you dont really have to solo, can always get 1 more people to duo and split the papers or alexs

[Tricen]

I keep asking people if they want to make a static and no one ever responds. I don't think shouting works too well either. Hmmm thanks for all the info

Karieyh legs/feet for both ukko's and resolution on war/drk(where applicable)?

If NNI is the next logical gear upgrade path for me for my jobs, but I am not willing to do NNI at all, what are the alternatives?

Current TP Sets for each job:

MNK: http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/268970 (Note: I just got the melee gloves +2..and I have tantra +1 hands, athos boots..so I can cap haste..just not sure what the correct combo is)

NIN: http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/273513 (Note: I have Iga Body +2 for when acc is neccessary)

BLU: http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/267693 (Note: Swords are currently Nobilis (18 helms into Almace stage 1) and am working on finishing Fire Shikargar..probably will buy Bikah sword)

BST: We can ignore this I just use it to farm Dyna mostly..will upgrade it when not busy with other jobs.

As much as I know BGers are all R/E/M or bust..I just don't have the patience, especially for a job like MNK, to get one of those. Although I have 18 helms for Almace..not sure if I'll finish it. I am not very good at making money even with Dynamis farming, which I don't do every single day as is. So mercing NNI items is not an option.

I assume you've no interest in Salvage 99, either, but one upgrade that you can immediately make is Rancor Collar for your MNK.

Everyone isn't "REM or bust." Some people are, but not everyone. If you ask a question before you make an assumption (e.g., "What's the best non-REM weapon that I can make for my job?"), you'll probably get a good answer. Regardless, you're already using one of the best non-REM weapons for MNK, so you're fine there.

As for more MNK-specific things, this thread is a great place to get ideas from: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/36...ch-monk-guide/

If it can be done with my current gear I might be inclined to do it. I've always wanted Usukane, and I'm leveling up SAM which can also benefit from it. Unless, of course, I need NNI gear to do it and/or it as hard as or harder than NNI.

I actually have this, I just don't use it right now due to not having any Tonberry hate. I will get to farming that up ASAP.

In the past when I've asked I got the REM or bust response. That's why I said it. With that being said..the new 4mil H2H on the AH looks worth farming for since 4m is basically only 3-4 days of Dynamis runs at worst.

This basically tells me that unless I get Thaumas Coat and Tenryu Tekko +1, I'm basically as good as I'm going to get save for trading Tantra feet +2 for Usukane feet +1, http://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/269091 is that accurate?

Would you say NIN and BLU are in a similar boat (skipping NNI brings me to hexed gear or SoA stuff?) If so I'm ok with that.

[Michelob]

If you're not willing to do NNI then you can always pay for the wins which get you a piece of your choice. People sell the gear as cheap as 3-4m for the win and 1-2m for pieces that drop in the pool since they normally take multiple buyers in a run.

As for salvage II, it's much more laid back than NNI. Groups of 3 are pretty much the norm and full clears with time left on the clock are fairly common. Splitting your plans 3 ways will take time though and if you don't have the salvage I pieces you could be looking at quite a while longer.

Wow that's cheap! Here they sell for 9-10 m for the KI and 3-4 for the random drops.

Hello, I made a pair of hecatomb subligar +1 augmented with crit rate +3 dex +2 for a friend, i know nothing about pld or chant du cygne so... are they better or worse than subligar with perfect augment(crit +4 acc+7)? other options for legs or some ideal set that you can show me? Thanks.

Karieyh legs/feet for both ukko's and resolution on war/drk(where applicable)?

You would normally want to stick with Ravager's +2 or Huginn feet on Ukko's for the crit damage bonus. For Resolution the feet are great.

Legs are very nice for either, though ACC on other pieces might be helpful as well.

What can solo Omega, and does it require a decked out of that job?

[Dotsudoku]

Most of the usual culprits. RDM, BLU, BST, PLD, DRG, etc.

[Tricen]

Hmm... PLD can kill it in 30mins?

[RicFlair]

What are the pros and cons of Yoichi RNG vs Anni RNG? I don't plan on leveling SAM and I'm a bow type of guy, so I'm wondering how much of a fool I'm making myself look by going Yoichi route instead of gun .

Now probably any decent solo job. Back at 80-85 I only recall rdms doing it

Might have changed a little with new gear but it's generally been slightly better relic ws with bow but less tp dmg and less useful aftermath than gun. Gun however now also has a much better dmg ws to turn to then bow if you aren't super concerned about enmity. Oh and the distance thing but there are advantages and disadvantages for having farther or closer optimum distances and I'd just use armageddon if I really needed to stay out of AOE range

[Dotsudoku]

Probably sub 10 minutes with Requiescat
