    After giving it some more thought.

    Haub+1 VS ACP body (Acc+10/DA+2) for Guillotine/RR/KJ/Penta/other WS in general?

    Depends on your att at, and other DA mainly at 550 att, 20% DA, and 93% acc, for Raging rush 12.75 att 2.75 acc 1 dex vs 2 DA
    Then, 2.3% increase from att, 1.4% acc increase ignoring mods bonus of str and/or dex, while 2% DA would be 1.6% dmg increase.
    While if higher buff we'll say 700 att, 20% DA still, and capped acc with either body, giving
    Att giving 1.8% dmg increase, and DA still giving 1.6% dmg increase but if drk and only 7% DA then it would be 1.8% increase aswell, so I would say not worth taking over haub +1 most of the time.

    Haste, except for really really resistant mobs that do moves you cant afford a resist.

    With those two options I'd go for haste but if you get a shot, Nashira Manteel?

    Haste is very limited for BLM, you have:

    Walahra Turban
    Swift belt (v belt)
    Goliard body
    Nashira set.

    I personally use haste in every slot I can and get my skill from the other slots (I don't have any Nashira yet).

    But then again my BLM rarely sees anything more taxing than dynamis.

    Anything I can upgrade (to slighty better) in these sets (Minus things like Ebody/Velocious belt/+1 Dusk/Uni's/etc.?

    75 WAR/SAM TP GEAR - FFXIGEAR.com

    75 WAR/SAM WS GEAR - FFXIGEAR.com

    1. Working on Perdu G-Axe
    2. Will have Ancient Torque in the near future (Peacock for TP till then)
    3. Still need Warrior's stone (Is this better than Warwolf for WS? I'm guessing so.)


    edit: Was going to post this in the "Post your gear thread". But decided this was more of a question based upon looking for whats better.

    Well this is probably of no help to you, but on your WS set Alky's would be better, and I'm pretty sure that set won't be that efficient on SC. But don't listen to me I'm not even a warrior75.

    For the TP build, I would use Aurum over Unicorn. Could also macro in Forager's/Blitz Ring for when Aggressor is up/low eva stuff if you want to really micromanage.

    It's a sexy TP build though!

    As to the WS gear, it would depend -which- WS we're talking about!

    Mainly Raging Rush. None of my gear is towards VIT/etc.

    Hmm, your WS gear seems to show a mix of ideas for Raging Rush unless I'm misinterpreting it. Hauby +1 => Osode suggests to me that you are building for crits, but then Byakko's => AF2 makes me think otherwise...

    I would probably use Hauby+1/Haidate but that's just me personally, and I'm not used to building crit WSs. Could even make two builds, one focussing on capping dDEX or getting close to on mobs where it is practical to do so and one where you are simply pushing damage higher.

    I generally wouldn't use Osode over Hauby+1 unless specifically building for a focus on crits, nor would I give up 11.25 accuracy and +crit rate on a multihit crit WS for 5str and +1 DA%, but again; just my opinion.

    EDIT: Since you're a Mithra, I think you could quite easily push high dDEX on most things if you used Byakko's.

    Raging Rush can just get silly at birds if you can get enough dex. without losing str/attack. 8/8 gaxe? I mess around with my RR build constantly. Currently using haub+1 for RR and ares body for KJ I even tried using my pixie earring for RR @ birds a few times (but only at birds I'm not sure its possible to hit dex cap on mamool) I generally get better results with haidate for RR and af2 legs for KJ (hachiryu just won't drop for me off sara :/ ) Anyway with 8/8 Gaxe (and even without due to bergressor) i'm not sold on osode for ws. I like the acc from haub+1 and popping meat kabobs. But I'm not a mathcraft person. I'm sure one of them will be around shortly. I just parse....a lot.

    Edit: I haven't merited in awhile, but I was messing around with the idea of trying a thunder ring with the rest of my dex gear lol just for laughs mostly

    btw your ws set looks really nice, for king's justice GET IT >O

    I've resolved to (finally) finish my WAR off to 75, and was curious about Raging Rush. I know that it's a Crit based WS, and that the mods are STR and DEX, which is why this question even comes into play.

    At 75, Byakko's Haidate vs. Hachiryu Haidate for RR.

    Byakko for RR, Hachiryu for KJ/SC imo.

    It's funny, for as much work as Hachiryu is to get, you end up using it on less WS's than you think (unless you're a ranger, then you never wash them). Try to use them only on WS's that get a huge str mod and don't crit, essentially.

    Would this cut it dex wise on RR for birds.
    FFXIGEAR.com
    Maybe use this if the above one doesn't have enough dex for birds.

    I have almost 100 ABCs in my mog, trying to figure out what to do with them. My only 75 job is MNK, everything else is < 50.

    Already have Brutal, so what next, Loq. for Utsu macros (i end up tanking alot of shit, and do more campaign than I'll admit to) or Boxer's mantle?

    Personally I'd take Boxer's Mantle because it can be used full-time if you solo a lot. Loquacious will help barely with recast, so meh
