STR sword adds 1 STR, no attack, base dmg pushed to 57.

DA sword adds 2 base damage, no double attack.

**Draylo** · 2011-09-02 09:29

1 str lame lol, maybe when they are lvl 99 they will get something cool like:

STR sword: Additional effect Plague
Dex sword: Additional effect Stun
macc sword: additional effect suck more

etc etc

So does the -pdt sword not get any more PDT, but gets one more vit and some base damage? =/

I think I will make macc swords for 2 reasons. MP+ equip for buffing before the fight (I'm Galka and my MP in physical spell set is something around ... 420?) and for a situation when I will only spam/snipe sudden lunge.

I just parsed an 8.95% DA rate across 14924 attack rounds as NIN64/WAR32 single-wielding. Perhaps the trait gained by WAR at level 25 is also not 10%?

My (shitty) CW set is this:

input /equip main "Jupiter's staff";
input /equip sub "Spear strap";
input /equip ring1 "Demon's ring"; <--- +3 matk +2% ma crit
input /equip ammo "Snow sachet";
input /equip head "Aias bonnet";
input /equip neck "Artemis' medal";
input /equip ear1 "Thunder earring";
input /equip ear2 "Moldavite earring";
input /equip body "Teal saio";
input /equip hands "Mavi bazuband +1";
input /equip back "Vigilance mantle +1";
input /equip waist "Thiazi's belt";
input /equip legs "Teal slops";
input /equip feet "Mavi basmak +1";
input /equip ring2 "Rajas ring".

atmas are Lion, Blinding, ultimate

edit: should also say that I cast Sound blast, mem mori(if no ascetics), enervation and one fantod before BA + CW (cursed sphere in set as well for matk bonus)

usual hits are for 5-6k with higher ones hitting 6.6-6.9k

and yeah thermal isnt my cup of tea anymore...if mobs dont one shot then I just use CA + efflux + WoR with STR set.

Yeah I was just messing lol, I used to have a mp set for that but inv extremely limited atm. I guess it would be decent to have 200 mp(if it gets +25 at 95) to buff up with before anything. Damn you >.> two more swords to do. Then again, I could just wear mp gear I normally have that doesn't go into a TP set.

That's possible. This is what I had to settle on for bgwiki.

**Atoreis** · 2011-09-02 11:03

Btw they really should do something with MP on Galka. It's fucking stupid that Taru has like 80% of Galka HP but Galka has 50% of Taru mp ... My base mp at 90lvl BLU/nin naked is 388.. Taru have what? 800?

What were you single wielding? KParse has issues with underreporting DA on low delay weapons.

I got 9.8% +/-1% (sample size of ~3500) on MNK52/WAR26 wielding a signet staff. I'll do more if necessary. (Though the results technically don't exclude one another)

You and your lolmp. Was always funny seeing you in salvage without enough mp to cast big spells

Yeah well they need to fix taru hp too!!! Even with full abyssite of furtherance I generally wont break 2.5 unless I set an hp atma. Stupid getting 1 shotted here and there

Taru HP isnt broken >.> I have no idea why Galka has so low MP. I think they just made Galka to have 400HP more and 400MP less than Taru but they fucking forgot that 400 is just 30% of Taru HP while 400 is 100+% of Galka MP. Fucking SE At least we are about to get superior spell with low mp cost and max MP will mean nothing :D

I used Logger, have never been able to get KParser working quite right on my computer. Weapon was a Dream Bell.

How are you separating out DAs with Logger?

**Vathris** · 2011-09-02 11:43

Well... about the galka issue (not only mp), cant you just call a gm and really sell it like you are going to kill yourself or something, cause you get laughed about and all, and get em to change your race to a better one, like for instance elfs, who we all know is the best race of them all?

**Nightfyre** · 2011-09-02 11:46

I use the start and end times to calculate # of expected attacks, subtract any potential time lost to out of range mobs (had the mob wander out of range for a couple of seconds apparently), and then compare expected number of hits to the actual value to obtain my DA %.

Really? Would you ever have a taru tank something hard if you had a choice? Pretty sure you have more than just 400 more hp then me
