Post Pictures of your gear II

[Seedz]

Brb, off to Storage to get Lamia xD; Thanks for the info, haven't got around to test it, so I'll take your word on this one.

[Vishnevskiy]

Taking off Lamia Kaman changes my damage taken on Tiamat, but taking off Defending Ring has no effect
As for minimalizing damage taken, I had a jelly ring and tossed it a long time ago. Lazy to get a new one lol

[Kilik]

Yea with Aegis and Shell5, MDB still lowers dmg. I use Lamia Mantle+1, Resolute Belt, Lamia Kaman, and Unfettered Ring in my magic dmg gear. Still trying to get Ataractic Solea, Storm Turban, and Shadow Ring which doesnt exist, esp cause next one (aka LS's first one) is mine -.-;

MDB is used by calculating MAB/MDB and multiplying the damage by the result as the second last stage of magical damage calculation, and Magic Damage % down is calculated as damage * (1-x/256) to a cap of 128/256 as the last stage of magical damage calculation.

There isn't a cap on MDB as far as I know, or if there is no-one has reached it and/or spoken about it.

Nice gear. But doesn't the triple attack on homam body overwrite KC's multhit proc? I've been hesitant to wear Brutal Earring for that reason

Yes it does, but the extra HP+ACC more then makes up for a 2.5% chance of trip att going off. The average per round of K.Club is 4.5 so a slight chance of a 3 mixed in there isn't a big deal. The 28hp and 15acc is. I wouldn't touch a brutal though, Cassie and Intruder ftw.

Jesus christ ppl.. if I see another fire kit w Bastokian/Dino *anything* I'm gonna release my new strain of avian flu on "y'all."

No, +5 resist is -not- worth giving up 4~5 emnity or haste, period. If hitting that resist tier relies on a shitty +5 harness, you have a lazy/stupid WHM.

(I say stupid because even an enhancing torque/augmenting/AF2 can help make up for lazy/no merits.)

If you don't have dumbass co-tanks that compete for hate in the air without fire resist gear you don't need to worry about enmity in the air.

Meh I was thinking about getting one, but I don't think I really need it... I could get some HQ sutff and use Merman's ring or something.

[Naramaska]

Wearing Dino/Bastokan gear means I free up 10-20 fire resist on my rings for Merman's and otherwise :V

It's just a matter of balancing gear--depending on who my WHM is i'll change it up, but I generally go heavier on the resist gear than lighter.

lol, was half joking, but yea Flight was goin a little overboard with the dino gear comments lol.. best to have access to the highest # of resist you can get, you don't always have your best WHMs around for Tiamat and such. I'm still working on my barspell merits, don't even remember what # I get to off hand, but I do not have AF2 pants either. Not every WHM is gonna have all the gear/merits to max barspell resistance out, so it's best to have access to that extra 5 or 10 resistance just in case you need it to hit 300 or w/e the magic number for Tiamat is.

ive tried so hard to get ls whms to put some effort into bar gear/merits, its amazing how little some whms care. whats the avg # a decent whm puts out? 177 in gear and im not even hitting 300 after barfira.

My LS doesn't do Dyna-Jeuno D: and I -need- these pants in case something happens and they want me WHM instead of BRD for Tiamat lol.

And Maxed out Barspells are around +122/124 iirc but i might be very wrong.

Just curious as to why hecatomb+1 over hauberk+1? Wouldn't the attk be more beneficial than the str?
Also would you use an aqua ring over flame for guillo?

Otherwise very, very impressive.
