Thread: Pahluwan Body     submit to reddit submit to twitter

  1. #1

    Pahluwan Body

    I know there was a topic a while back telling us all how much of a piece of shit this thing is in terms of +crit rate...but lately I've been seeing soo many people wearing this shit when they have access to better gear, like monk in it instead of shura, etc.

    Did they fix the critical hit rate and I missed that discussion or are these people just ignorant and assuming its actually good?

    are you confusing "have access to" and "have" or are there actually MNKs on your server choosing this over Shura?

    No, thing is it requires 0 gil and no connections to get. Someone wearing it over a shura togi is just a moron but wearing it over a scorp harness and pocketing the money is a no brainer.

    I thought it was that 59 body piece that was broken in terms of crit+, and that Pahluwan gave 3% crit+ or something in that neighborhood?

    I don't have the parsed data because I'm at work, but a MNK in my merit PT the other day was parsing 22%+ crit rate with pahluwan body on, and he didn't even have capped crit merits at the time.

    I didn't know the crit rate was broken before, so maybe it did get fixed?

    The Sipahi Jawshan has a negative effect on critical hits, despite the description. People actually parse a lower crit % with it.

    Pahluwan, on the other hand, actually parses higher.

    Pahluwhan might not be the best dd gear for a monk, but it's certaiinly the best melee dmg gear available to a PUP (though the AF is still important, particularly for using the stormwaker frame).

    Pahluwan is a decent alternative to NQ SH if you're not worried about the evasion. Currently I keep it in my inventory all the time on my thief, but only to macro in for my Bolts, on my rdm though it's rather nice since we evade like cowpats.

    Don't forget, all Shura Togi has is: HP-50 Acc+10 Atk+10.

    Pahluwan has HP+20 Acc+10 Crit+3% (estimated).

    Defense-wise, both are about the same (40 on Shura, 42 on Pahluwan).

    I would think which is best would be a situational argument.

    As much as I like this piece, I am in no rush for it for PUP. Though the +5 accuracy would be nice, the HP/MP Boosts for the maton are more worthwhile in my opinion, especially when you fight nasty AOE mobs. The legs on the other hand are a much more important buy and I love their stats and look.

    I macro it in on my THF for max Racc, with my vision earring, in situations where its just best for me to stay out of AOE range (low number of healers/mages for sky farming or whatever)

    but, if my inventory is getting full, its one of the first pieces I will unload.

    Nothing like running around with 5 body pieces.

    (Dragon (ws), Scorpion (evasion), Rapa (Haste), Pln.(Racc), and hopefully before too long Homam(TP?))

    Is this a real manga? And is it just me, or was that an intentional plageurism of Full Metal Jacket?

    I think at last check the AF2 body added about +0% Crit Rate, was a broken piece of gear.
