    Depends on your other gear, but I'd be inclined to say Dusk+1 no matter what.

    Realistically, I'm looking at

    Thassocrat///Tiphia Sting
    Turban/Peacock Amulet/Brutal/Merman's(or minuet or diabolos)
    AJ (until I get askar)/Dusk+1(or homam when I get)/Rajas/Toreador's
    Forager's/Swift Belt/w/e holds me over till homam/w/e holds me over till homam

    reason I'm lv'ing drg is because I have 2 years of limbus points I haven't used on a single homam/naishira drop and out of the homam jobs drg fits best because I have 4 polearm merits from sam. So when i ding I should be able to pick up homam pretty damn quickly

    WS gear confirmations:

    75 DRG, Taru
    8/8 Polearm merits, 5/5 STR
    Always eatting Meat
    Constants:
    Weapon: Thalassocrat, Pole Strap
    Ammo: Tiphia Sting
    Rings: Rajas / Ulthalams
    Back: Forager's

    Looking for both a Penta Thrust and Drakesbane gear set. The following are the equipment options:

    Head: Ares Mask / Heca Cap
    Neck: Love Torque / Shadow / Flame
    Ear1: Brutal
    Ear2: Assault, Fowling, Minuet
    Body: Homam, Ares
    Hands: Relic, Heca
    Waist: Warwolf, Relic
    Legs: AF+1, Conte Cosciales
    Feet: Hecatomb

    I've been using:

    Penta Thrust:
    Ares
    Love
    Brutal
    Minuet
    Homam Body
    Heca Hands
    Relic Belt
    AF+1 Legs
    Heca feet

    Drakesbane:
    Heca Cap
    Flame Gorget
    Brutal Earring
    Minuet Earring (have a song 99% of the time)
    Ares Cuirass
    Heca Hands
    Warwolf Belt
    Conte Legs
    Heca Feet

    Although I'm not sure if I'm getting enough ACC on Drakesbane. Been thinking about swapping Conte Legs for the AF+1 Legs.

    Depend what are you doing, i would use foragers for merits full time, except on thf or nin mamools, i would use cuchulain's in that case, for HNM's depend too what you are fighting and songs you have.

    Leveling THF on mule solely for a TH whore, aside from Thief's Knife offhand what would be a decent free/cheap mainhand @ 70+? Anything better than Heart Snatcher?

    Either of those will work, and usually only cost 3-5k. Stay away from Heart Snatcher, it's totally useless and not worth the time to break it.

    Seconded. Behemoth Knife/+1 is cheap as hell and only beaten by blau, adder/khim jambiya, and azoth for AH daggers. The HP never hurts either, granted it's not a reason to get the thing on it's own.

    What would be better for Sam overall at 75; Myochin Kote +1, Alky's Bracelets, or another hand item?

    If not using /THF and SA, typically Myochin+1 overall.

    Alky's will net you higher numbers on a WS (nothing extreme, though), but I use AF+1 because since SAM WS are one-hit, the ~8 accuracy difference very well may mean the difference between ~800-1300 damage and 0. Depends on your build, really, so this is more of a blanket statement that may not be the best in all situations (SA being an obvious one).

    I see a lot of WARs fulltiming the Sipahi Turban over the Walkure Mask. Am I right in thinking it'd be awesome for WS, but Walkure would be better for TPing?

    From what I've heard, +atk is better for heavily armoured enemies whereas if you can hit the low defense mobs, raw stats are better. I would say situational.
