The BLM body is crap. I use errant for stoneskin and times when I need -enmity for when Im not nuking (ie cures and stun).

if that happens, then the af hands for monk should be enhanced..that will a wet dream to any monk aliveOriginally Posted by Orfeo
but i dont think they want to overpower mnk more than what the job is at now
WHM AF+1 makes me want to level past 67. xD Amazing.
agreed with you 100%Originally Posted by Not Kuno
The other body might be good for solo, but at that lvl, you're not exactly gonna be counted on to enfeeble. And if you are, most likley it'll be dynamis sleepga(you'll sleep it all anyway with low enfeeble skill) or ES+Sleep a HNM Wyrm/Dragon.
-5 enmity is more than errant body, and you don't have the -7 vit that really sucks if some mob decides to take a swing at you. I did forget about Stoneskin, but I can keep errant for SS. Othewise, this replaces it. Also, I get most of my xp solo these days, so it helps out there as well. Overall, it's the best of the blm AF+1, imo. The +3 int on the gloves would help the most on hnm, but overall, the coat is better.
Theres no reason you should be getting hit. Oh and youre right about the enmity, but the way the +1 is you wont be able to get every piece of it, so you should only go for what's nessesary. Plus 30 more HP absorbed on SSkin = <3.
you're definitely Not Kuno.Originally Posted by Not Kuno
My mistake, I forgot to include "In errant body". That was directed at his "and you don't have the -7 vit that really sucks if some mob decides to take a swing at you".
looking at all of them, the coat was the only one that jumped out at me as something I might want. Tonban and Sabbots...don't add anything. Petasos adds 1 int, Gloves add 3 int and an extra -enmity...nice but not as good as the coat in my opinion. Of course, the gloves are the easiest to get so that might be the one I get first. but the coat would be really nice.
I agree with you there. The pants and boots were very dissapointing. The boots would be great if they got int but they got 5 mind instead, gay. The gloves are sweet cause there are times youre forced to have them on (stuff that resist like a crazy mofo) because theres no +elemental skill gear that also has INT except this (staff doesnt count cause thats only ice spells).
Gloves and body are definately best.
The others would be well worth getting IF you had a decent way to make the currency.
Legs, Feet, and Gloves all have +1 HMP, which if you get the full set is a noticable upgrade. Feet have 5 MND for Stoneskin. Legs make Baron's Slops go bye bye, saving inv room.
They're not crap, it just depends on how hard it is to get the currency for each individual player.
coolI like the new RDM Body. I think I'll get that and maybe the HQ AF hat and redo the AF quest to get the body and hat again and put em in storage so I have a bit more space XD (If I can do that..)
The BLM body isn't crap, retardKuno. I don't agree that it replaces Errant completely as, yeah, I'd still hold onto it for stoneskin cast. But I don't know about you, but I'm limited to what I can solo based on my enfeebling capabilities, not my offensive capabilities. There's no way a BLM aiming to perfect all aspects of his/her job can call each respective piece with most enfeebling in that slot "crap."
I said its crap if you want to ditch errant. See: "Thank you SE, I can get rid of my errant hpl to save an inventory slot. ". As for BLM in any HNM situation, I never find myself enfeebling. Ever. I dont want to be perfect in all aspects because thats dumb, we're not ment to enfeeble. Simple as that. Ever land an enfeeble on anything hard? Neither have I, and I dont care cause its not my job.Originally Posted by Roranora
In addition, I have enough inventory spots for damage, reducing resists and other important things etc to be conserned about enfeeblings. It might be good in solo but what are you trying to solo that resists so much anyway? In addition, theres a ton of enf + items (see: af body, igqira tiara, legs, enf torque, enf earring) if you really wanted to land some enfeeble that raises our flimsy 230 base skill to a studly 270.
Maybe not for your LS but sometimes BLMs have to enfeeble. One example is if you are doing fafnir and no main RDMs are available, you end up bringing a 65-68ish RDM. BLM enfeebling is not a bad idea if they are equipped for it in that situation. (Its happened b4.) There are tons of times where u may have to back someone up with something, so i dont see how u can go wrong w/ the body except that u lose a level cap piece.
That being said i wont spend currency on it for a long time to come. =P
HQ WHM AF1 gloves > Blessed+1 (maybe)
the major argument against a lot of these pieces is "you're better off spending the coins elsewhere".
*cough* Evasion skill+10 parry skill+10 mantle, MP+30 earring with Fast Cast, enchances double attack earring with store tp *cough*
Five jobs at 75 and only one out of twenty-five pieces really gets me salivating (Ninja Hatsuburi +1), pretty sad. I await the day when we can make some of this shiney new AF2 worthwhile (Warrior's Lorica, Koga Hatsuburi and Bard's Slippers come to mind) so we can at least have people thinking we're cool and not some level 60 noob who can't afford the Haubergeon/Scorpion Harness/Vermillion Cloak we so sorely need. I can't wait to see Fafnir being taken down by people in full "AF1", truly a sight to behold!
Now how about some more inventory space to keep this crap in.
the war+1 af isnt impressive at all![]()
Ahh.. even better Kuno, take the scape goat out that well some other job can do enfeebling better so BLMs "weren't meant to do it." Yes I can enfeeble "tough" things, slow/para/blind on Nidhogg/Fafnir, gravity on KB, reliably solo Aw'aerns, enfeebles on Kindreds and Kindred NMs, etc. Zomg BLMs shouldn't do this cause all I want to think I can do is nuke and stun. You didn't even specify it was crap to replace errant, I believe it was just crap, with no more words following that sentence. But I'm sorry, BLMs weren't meant to enfeeble because RDMs have higher skill, RDMs weren't meant to heal because WHMs have higher skill, and those fucking WARs should never use anything but Axes.
