    I think blood price is in an acceptable place if not "feels good". Remember that you get double Mp from Syphon in grit now. I guess that's intended to make up for no BW while in grit. Somewhat.

    thing is as you know most of us hardly in grit, we do yes in progression but after few gear pieces you hardly use it

    Yeah, I don't miss old BP so much anymore when Syphon Strike is just going to give me almost my whole pool back.

    I'm trying to figure out why folks on the OF keep saying Dark Arks + Soul Eater doesn't return 100% anymore, when it's clearly doing that for me still.

    It triggers me that if the target doesn't have enough HP left and you use soul eater or inner beast it will only return however much HP the target has not how much damage is done :/ 500hp left and you hit a 4k? enjoy your 500 hp.

    The DA part is irrelevant. Souleater's drain % goes down every level from 60 to 70

    Not necessarily specific to DRK but, consensus on melded 320 belt (or other slots but I suspect this is one of the most contentious) vs 330 belt? 340 I imagine wins outright. Trying to figure out what to do with my spare Creation while I save for weapon. Can get a head/hand/feet slot or a belt+accessory, the latter basically being just belt because 320crafted isn't going away.

    I personally am biased towards the Creation belt because of the secondary stats but I don't know which one is actually better.

    Hello,

    Does anyone have a good opener as MT with and without Nin ?

    I'm trying to squeeze more dps in exdeath first phase, but there are so many things to squeeze in the opener i sometimes end up delaying my gcds a lot.

    Can't speak to it being "good" but what I've been doing atm (with NIN though):

    countdown from 8 (to accomodate longcast RDM)
    prepull Darkarts, Awareness (V3 habit), TBN

    pull with Unmend, Salted and CnS as you run by
    Hard (Blood Price)
    Spinning (DA)
    Power (Plunge or whatever)

    at this point I drop Grit and go into BW bloodspiller/souleater garbage. Without a NIN you may want a 2nd power. Alternately you can let it ride depending on your mitigation order for his tankbusters. We have WAR/DRK so we go Holm (he vokes during Dualcast and eats both, Shirk as appropriate to augment hate and return it to you), then Living Dead, then Holm. PLD+DRK combo has no choice but to do a legit one at least once though.

    Nice DRK guide that was posted to Reddit, for any who want an in depth look or something. Looks solid to me and I think I learned/confirmed a couple things from it.
