    Turban Vs. Shura Kabuto??

    I'm in the process of buying one or the other... I've had the Shura Kabuto Abj for a while now but I'm just now getting around enough gil to buy one (Log prices just went up 2 mil....... prompted the wait) But then this +5% Haste Turban comes out....

    Anyone have both and have parsed? I can't get both, I'm poor and no one will XP with me, so I'm looking for one or the other. +5% haste would help a bunch with Soloing, but how well would it hold up against Shura in PT's?

    Opinions? Parses? Just wondering

    Can you find an xp party in your pocket?

    Turban for TP.

    If you are a SAM, you can get Wyvern Helm for WS. If you are a monk, use Ohat for asuran and Ohat or Genbu Kabuto for DK.

    Here is how you do it:

    Go in game and /random. If 0-499, go Turban, if 500-999 go Kabuto. Then work on earning gil for the other.

    I'm finding it to be very hard to get XP parties in the new areas. Almost all Jpn parties, and even though I SPEAK japanese... they don't like to PT with me. I got my first XP party last night and made like 1500 Imperial Standing points or whatever.

    Looks like you need 20,000 Imperial Standing points (or whatever they're called) to be able to buy enough bronze coins. Maybe I'll just save up and wait another few months.

    Or I could add a nice big DRK derail.

    If you didn't use Panther/+1 before this expac, why all of a sudden use a haste head now? You obviously used acc and/or str before, so now you want haste, and will miss more often negating the added haste?

    so funny

    Remember, you must build around eating meat, because if you dont eat meat and eat sushi you are a shitty ffxi player who should slit their wrists.



    But hey, if you want to be a sack of shit taking pot shots for no reason, I can roll with that. Remember that Aurik XPs in SH+1 because, for whatever reason, he cant get an osode or shura togi, but he can get a peacock charm. So take his "advice" with a grain of salt.

    Because while you may not have considered 2/3% worth it you might consider 5% worth it.

    I'm thinking the DRK derail is a good idea.

    Turban decreases your stun recast timer. Discuss.

    Max is right actually lol.

    Thats the same thing as saying, "you don't bother to use a quick belt before, why would you want a Swift/Speedbelt?"

    Well I don't have Byakko's Haidate... and when tanking or soloing things I'm always like 4seconds away from Utsu recast, so the +5% haste would help a ton I think.

    Basicly. I wouldn't use Fuma Sune-Ate over dune boots on MNK, but I would use Fuma Sune-Ate+2 (Blue box :Q)

    Dune Boots are for idiots

    Doesn't matter how much haste or slow you pack, it always feels like you're just a few seconds short on utsu

    And if you think Dune Boots are for idiots, that might very well be why you have trouble getting parties.
