So Gandiva is right out then?
What are, actually, the spells that really benefit from a reduced recast time? (without sacrificing other important things, of course, or all nukes would fit here). On the top of my head there's the obvious: Stun, both Utsusemis, Dread Spikes, I guess Drain and Aspir, too...
Stun, Flash, Repose, Utsusemi, Sleep/Lullaby spells, Dispel, Finale, Dread Spikes, Migawari, Raise spells, Drain/Aspir spells, to some extent nukes, and anything you're spamming for hate.
Okay thx, there is one comment on the nebula cuff +1 page on ffxiah from you that say it must be a 0.5 fastcast, so I wasn't sure if it would make a difference, prolly an old one or something didn't check the date.
While we're at it, is there also a 2sec wait after casting a spell while engaged like for ja/item use/ws I'd guess yes but maybe it's different for magic ?
Yeah, that was before we understood how Fast Cast works. It's only applied to recast every 2%, so these are 1%.
I don't know how long the wait after finishing a spell is, but I do suspect it exists.
How do people play Corsair these days?
When I quit it was COR/WAR or gtfo. TP on Joyeuse, step back and WS. COR/WHMs were ridiculed and shamed for being lazy. At least in EXP parties that is.
But it looks like the majority of the new COR gear that's come out has been all Ranged Attack stuff... Did the developers just forget about quick draw lol? Do people actually shoot for TP now, or what?
Possible to get 500 Enhance on SCH without Rubeus Feet? I'm already over the 0/100 point, so I'm looking at possible alternatives now.
Spoiler: show
Nope[Edit: Actually yes, but needs augmented ASA earring], 499[501] highest possible without them.
Kirin(12)/Grip(3)/---/AF3(4)
AF3(10)/Colos(7)/Augmenting(3)/Nothing
Anhur(12)/DurationGloves/Nothing/Nothing
Merciful(5)/Olympus(5)/AF1(15)/Stimulus Sabots(3)
=79 in gear
404 base + 16 merits = 499
Only way would be if there is a augmenting ring/earring that can get enhancing skill, but it's probably easier to get rubeus than one of those.
Edit: Ah, found it: http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Chocobo_Key can get 2 skill on an aptus earring, so 501 total
Literae Sabots can get up to a +5 skill augment, so you can break 500 without the Aptus Earring.
So am I reading correctly for THF tp set now Nomkahpa Mittens over AF3+2? My set would be:
dagger/dagger/boomerang/-
af3+2/rancor/brutal/suppa
thaumas/nomkahpa/epona/rajas
atheling/twilight/thaumas/relic+2
Sound right?
