I havent compared anything in depth, but it doesnt seem like any of the Jhkari+1 will outdo any previous nuking pieces with a decent aug.
The set looks great for anyone wanting to get in there and melee. Look at all that Accuracy and Attack on the set FFS! Melee RDM FTW!
But unfortunately, the set is extremely lacking in the Haste department. Only Haste +6% in the entire set. YUCK!
Oh, there's the new synth'd Animators. Animator P......suddenly I need to wc real quick.
That SMN Satchet is a pleasant surprise. Wasn't expecting that one.
Cool stuff. The +1 versions aren't that huge of an upgrade so everyone should be happy with the regular versions to start. Now to see what they require O.o
Just a heads up, but the SE Account page got a MAJOR overhaul... I actually thought I mistyped my one-time or something at first because it looks so different. >_>
Finally getting around to getting wardrobe3 and had a serious wtf moment... XD
Was this part of this month's update or did it happen a while ago and I just didn't happen to see it sooner?
edit: btw... how do you get a hold of the data so fast? O.o I can't even download it yet thru the client...
Weird version check isnt up for me. dont u need to update before you can see new items?
Wow those pet ammos
So those animators are better than divinators? what was the hidden stats on divinator?
Go to your FFXI folder > ROM > 0 > delete (or move somewhere like your desktop if you are paranoid) 0.dat
Open POL > Check Files > dropdown menu, select FFXI > start your file check :3
Looks like it worked fine for me this time. Might just need to wait 45-60min before starting to make sure POL is not down and that the update files are available.
New Normal Ambuscade is arcana. Live Vana'diel just showed the devs running thru it. XD
Didn't see the whole thing, but looks like it's versus just a solo tinman.. acrolith? :/
Feet look okaysh to me? Think I might actually use them on GEO, need to re-check my augs on Merlinic.
Jhakri set would be awesome for meleeing GEO but Haste+6% is way too low to be able to compensate with just a haste belt. Also GEO doesn't get a better than 6% haste belt iir. Could put Haste+10 aug on Ambuscade cape, but even those 2 together wouldn't be enough.
Can use Head + Onca Suit + Haste belt, altough I'm not sure that would beat Windbuffet+1 (when you don't need DW) or Shetal Stone (when you do).
It might be cool for WS though, need to doublecheck the total amount of stats/acc/att you get.
Overall I dunno, meh set for mages? Refresh+3 body if you lack better options in the slot though.
Set fills niche situations, particularly for BLU. Great magic WS pieces, high macc, excellent for physical spells with an additional effect. If recasts aren't a concern, it's quite nice.
And if losing like 5 ilvls worth of defensive stats also isn't a concern. Blu hardly has any useful physical add effects anyway, it's pretty much sudden lunge (which you wouldn't use this set on), and barbed crescent, which is super niche. Swapping out tons of evasion to cast a spell to lower the enemies accuracy by 20 is pretty wtf as well when you think about it.
Attack down/defense down/paralyze/etc. are done better by magical spells. Beyond that, we already have tons of acc+macc pieces, and physical add effects aren't going to be relevant in any capacity on the enemies you'd need this much macc for.
