COR Endgame usage

Dunno but:

An issue where a bard song may not take effect under certain circumstances when a character’s main job is set to bard and support job set to corsair has been addressed.

Is the only real thing. Ironically, I think it was possible for BRD/COR to have both 2 songs and 2 rolls when COR was first released....

But I knew that you could do COR/BRD with 2 rolls and 1 song :3 Thats what I did like 10-14 i think.

[safer]

when they first brought cor out... they said explicitly that if you sub bard, you can only get a maximum of 2 buffs.. either songs or rolls

not entirely sure when the change happened, but like the previous poster mentioned... it does work... though i do believe it will get patched some time as it wasnt SE's intention

i went cor/brd in a manaburn before... was lots of fun :D

Shit, do I need to level BRD now?

yes

[Tomino]

ups, it works.
COR75/BRD12, did 2 rolls + 1 song just outisde moghouse.

Bare Handed = 35 Atk
Valor Minnuet = 42 Atk
Chaos (XI) = 41 Atk

Both stacked for 49 Atk, and I still had another roll on

Manaburn got a Corsair now 8)

We'll let you know how COR works in our style of dynamis after a few runs.

How'd norelco do? i've wanted in manaburn for the longest, he's not the only remedy member with 75 cor

back IT

last week we did Vrtra and assembled a SMNx5 BRD party.
I coudnt go COR because I was needed as summoner, but a SMNx5 COR setup would had been best hands down : better refresh, Hmp and little/average bonuses to Avatars.

as for manaburn, BLMx5 COR works good on Flans and I'd even recommend Corsair's Roll instead of the low refresh. or, better, try to land Refresh and in case of 1mp/tick result, go for Corsair's.

fit into the role of a bard, just without sleeps, cor/whm with mp build and erasing/curing/status effects. Didnt get to test him out in Xarca, he missed that one.

The point of my post was obviously NOT about that COR/brd can have 2roll and 1 song, was about 5BLM + 1COR can yield 16k/hr.

Lol, I don't know where ur pulling these 16k/hr numbers out of your ass from but it's kinda funny.

Anyways real info. COR/WHM BRD/WHM 4x BLM is best setup for flan. If your BLM aren't gimped 4 nukes will kill a flan easily. 5 BLM is overkill. Also, if you're zerging all the flan and not pacing kills you're burning exp/hr. Pace your kills to keep the chain alive as long as possible. With BRD + COR (Cor using exp roll/refresh roll) you'll have enough refresh to keep going until chain 21 or so (with a little help from troll's automoton) before hitting manafont to hit up to chain 25+. With a g-horn you can chain infinitely as long as you keep timing the pops/kills right and don't get screwed from a sleepga. With gjallarhorn it's possible to make around 14-15k/hr. With normal BRD it's possible to make upwards of 10-11k/hr.

Also, to the melee that disliked the COR, which rolls did he give you? Cause Rogues/Fighters tears up tp burn and tough COR's can also add to the damage themselves. The buffs alone make up for the 4th melee just about and the Corsair's damage more than compensates.

Yeah, sorry about that. I was pretty pissed when Friday night rolled around and I was still out of power. Hell, I still am out of power 4 days later. Pretty messed up though that my office, which is only a mile away from my apartment, has both power and internet.

Over 300k people were without power as of Friday. Only about 100k got their power back so far.

if your blms arent gimped, you dont need 4.
you can chain infinately with 4blms and either a brd or a cor, or 3blms, a bard and a cor. that is, ofcourse, if you dont get an unlucky sleepga. any party of 6 members fighting flans is wasting xp.

Dynamis Sandy today with Corsair + Pet team.

Today our COR (Norelco) was in charge of another role in manaburn, I decided to see how he can go in a different party setup. No blm, but instead SMN SMN SMN COR RDM BRD. RDM + BRD = refresh whores, Corsair gave PUP and BST rolls to the summoners, and for the first time in our LS history, the SMN were raping mobs before the BLM got a chance to finish their nukes instead of the other way around.

COR + BRD + RDM + 3 SMN = rape team. Pred claws 1200-1500 consistently, occasionally hitting 1800. Pet acc/attack ftw. Try one of these setups in your next dynamis, 3 smns pred claws going off at once is wtfpwn on mobs.

Smn is completely ridiculous in sandy, I wouldn't expect as good results in the other cities/glacier, and obviously not in xarc.

did you even try first?

my 16k was an average of 4hours of parsing believe it or not. For something you dont believe, i think it's rude that you think they are "pulling" out from their ass. That is just totally unnecessary.

Just because you couldnt get the xp/hr with what you think it's the best setup for you.. doesnt mean i'm lying or i couldnt get it o.o. Have you even tried....? o.o

Or just plain refuse to believe?

[Tomino]

Lordwafik, every roll without the matching job in party is pretty incosistent:
i mean +6% attack from Chaos, 1mp/tick from Evoker's, etc

so, i sincerely doubt the effects of Beast+Puppet could bring to "raping mobs" without PUP or BST in party. This is how COR was designed, after all.

[miokomioko]

wtf wafik, put a PUP in there, lolz

No, you're pulling these numbers out of your ass because there is simply no way to get more exp per hour because of the limited number of mobs. You have all of 9 or 10 flans and 1 automaton that you can manaburn around (and the troll if you can swing it) and we're killing these and by the time we're far into the chain and kill the last flan the next pops. There's never more than 1 up at a time therefore you can't get exp any faster, and that was around 12-13k/hr with a relic horn and the corsair using exp bonus roll with sanction bonus. So yes, that's where I'm saying you're pulling numbers out of your ass from.

Like I said, smn for some reason just absolutely destroy shit in dynamis sandy

[Tomino]

thought SMNs destroyed shit in Dynamys Windy. I always pulled my best numbers there.
