do you think blue mages will be able to equip ridill?

[Raineer]

:\ well our LS has only gotten 4 ridills total in a year of camping fafnir. our drops from fafnir just suck that bad.

That's actually a good drop rate.

Yes, i do. Lucky for you i also speak retard and was able to understand what you said. Spell check next time you dirty mutt.

You "speak retard"? Wow, how old are you? 13?

OH NOS, I PUT THE E BEFORE THE I, NOBODY WILL BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEANT.

You're not in a situation to be insulting somebody elses English, considering just how poor yours is. On the other hand, I am in a situation to be insulting how poorly you're able to understand the English language since, well, you don't understand anything being said.

Idiot.

lol People are getting fiesty.

People who speak without experience really piss me off. I come to a forum to learn by people talking about their different experiences with whatever. BG normally atleast has people with experience to back up what they're saying, unlike Allah/KI/FFXIO where you have lv40 players talking about the most effective way to kill Tiamat. In this thread though, I have a bunch of people who aren't even Warriors trying to tell me what the most effective weapon is to use.

My WAR is level 52, and I can say without a doubt you would be best served dual weilding two Rusty Daggers for their low delay.

While I agree it's silly to see the level 40's talking about killing Tiamat and the most effective strategy, but if someone came to me with 2 level 75 jobs and started talking about WAR even though their jobs were not WAR, I'd atleast believe they understood what they're talking about most of the time considering... There's not anything special to understand another jobs if you've already done one.

Secondly, fresh new 75s probably wouldn't understand considering they might not have even killed anything in Sky yet. Those that have killed Fafnir, Nidhogg, Tiamat, Jorm, Ouryu, Aspido, KB, all the GC99s, obviously the sky gods, word ls on Unicorn if you want more information... I think they have some fucking experience about what's good end game and what's not.

when did i once say it was not effective for a warrior?

what my gripe has been about this entire time has been the "priority" bs that happens all the time. Of course a warrior will be more effective with it on hnm, but if that is your sole reason on who gets what in the linkshell you need to re-evaluate some lotting rules. A ridill wont turn the tide in a major battle, and if it does, you need to rethink your strategy.

Also i may not own the weapon, but after taking several jobs to 75, i see, and i observe what it's effects are. That is like saying i would not understand that a blm that has more thunder merits will do more damage on thunder based spells than a blm without any merits. I have eyes and the ability to reason, the one with thunder merits will do more...So please enough with the experience BS, this is not real life, it is a game where you read text and look at damage parsers. I can read, and i can decifer what most of these numbers mean.


Once again you are a mutt, go troll elsewhere.

any discussion of this type has the unwritten criteria of "given all other factors being equal".

so find another argument, you're not adding anything.

[Flash]

and you add so much all the time...

[Xavier]

and you add so much all the time...

He pointed out that you're continuing to ignore the central phrase to everyones argument in order to continue your own, and telling you to stop. Sendoh adds a lot of actual useful information to the forums with 98% of his posts. He almost always stays on topic, debates using nothing but sound reasoning and calls people out when they ignore logic to make a flawed point.

That's such a kindergarden response.

The bottom line is that it is a TP builder, and everyone wants that.

Solo mabye... I partied with a thf using a Ridell vs. Abraxia once, first off, it's a bird so it's weak to peircing, lets put it this way, after a half hour with sushi, I ate meat while she ate Sushi, and she out TP'd me by mabye 120 vs. 100 mabye a little more, it was some months back now, but it wasen't ever a 150+tp with me behind situation like it was when I had sushi.

FOr refrence @75 Abraxia con High VT/low IT

as for blue mage I actually think they might become third in line for this item if they can use it. from what we know of the job it's a hybrid mele/mage specializing in swords, so we can probly safely assume, they will be B+ to A+ in sword. A lot of people have speculated that the learned mob traits will be tp based, and if this is true, this weapon would be awsome, imagine someone building tp at a ridell rate and spamming shit like Sickle Slash and that one insane Dhlamel def down move, I think people will be interested in that.

I'd blame thfs d rating (I think its d) with sword for not realizing the max of ridill.

[Okan]

Honestly, THF's are rated D with sword, so they're going to suck with it like BST and RNG.

[XxSlusherxx]

Yeah it's D and thats what I'm getting at. lol the peicing thing was just icing on the cake comment.

[Lockecole]

I'd blame thfs d rating (I think its d) with sword for not realizing the max of ridill.

It is D, and it is pretty noticable on Abraxas mobs accuracy-wise, especially considering they are hurt vs piercing. Regardless it still made me parser higher then a THF with Blau/Sirocco via melee damage (I was Harpe/Ridill), he used meat i used sushi, it was double minuet PT. I think it was seriously just the fact that he used meat, Ive had another THF use Blau/Hornet with Sushi and just fuck me up TP wise, when we had 2 BRDs, double min/march. Both of us have also hit our highest WS in XP PT using Sushi, his a 2300 Shark Bite on Abraxas, me a 2010 DE on Abraxas. Don't use Meat..seriously..ever in XP PT. It just gimps DoT too much.

In the end...I'd say in XP PT Ridill subhand is always the best choice, except on Abraxas, as their evasion is so high and they are hurt vs piercing. Trust me though...I was pulling hate off of PLDs just meleeing from 70 >> 75 over DRKs, WARs etc. It's still incredibly overpowered even with a D rating (I have +6 Sword Merits, another +5 with Suppa).... and makes me laugh at people who doubt it on a WAR.

so that puts you at what... 225 skill lol, thats funny I guess you've parcered it but it's silly to think that the weapon is that good. Does it beat it by a lot? DO you think it would outdamage that new 2-3 hit dagger offhand?
