Silverhook WHM/NIN Solo Guide

[Tricen]

Well if you are meleeing anything that requires a lot of acc you're doing it wrong <_>

Flash doesn't last long enough, and it then quickly rips through shadows, SS, then my puny taru HP ^^;

If I had gaiters I'd totally do that, lol! (I wish)

Most things that hundred fists can be bound very easily. Throw on your enfeeble gear/staff, then bind/repose.

[zhan]

WHM/NIN can bind?

[Ashira]

Flash doesn't last long enough,

Needs more divine skill! :D

[Rena]

I never had any troubles with Hundred Fists from Sea Horror... it's been a long, long time since I last fought it, but as I remember, between paralyze, slow, stoneskin and flash it never got me down more than 2~300 HP. I killed it around 10~15 times when camping my clubs, and never died, or had any problems with it. If that doesn't work, then... just run? You should be able to avoid some hits if you kite it around the back of the boat.

Haha, capped ; ;

And yeah, I think next time I might just try running, it's been a while since I tried (was highly embarrassed last time I lost, had RR up from before and it wore mid-battle) so maybe I'm better at tanking now :ashira: I'm definitely good at running now after having kited Jailer of Prudence a couple of times >_>;

Just on the side, Rena, I thought HF ignored slow?

[Rena]

I don't know, it very well might. Never thought about it, and even if I had, I doubt I'd have the interest to find out. <_<;

[Sampi]

Since Hundred fists only lowers the base delay of attacks, slow, haste, haste gear, etc still effect the attack speed of attacks during it. Given, this is for players, and would assume its the same for mobs, but with SE, can never completely assume, damn NINs that don't die after 2 hour...

Divine gear! I have a full set macroed in for Flash - 5-7second Flashes are HOT. :D

But this is a fun little topic here... would you believe, my original whm/nin tanking gear was like.. Evasion Torque, and that cape.. whichever.. green icon.. with Evasion.. etc... Eva earring with Suppa.. stuff left over from NIN! what else was I supposed to wear... :D

[Tajin]

My "tank" gear consists of full yigit >_>. You would not believe how much EP mobs miss with that shit on.



Well that and Signet bonus <.<

[Nirokun!]

this thread made me get a perdu wand for my whm and bid stupid money on a tabin jupon +1

fuck you guys i have a well-geared blu ( (but campaign battles on whm/nin is just too much fun!)

edit:

im looking at my clubs, and i'd like to mainhand perdu wand for the acc/atk bonuses, but idk what to offhand (i have an idea, but i'd like input)

my other clubs:
prudence rod (have stones) (DMG22 DEL288 occasionally attacks twice)
morgenstern (unlocked) (DMG40 DEL310 crit6%)
Sea Robber cudgel (DMG42 DEL340 5mnd, -5acc, +15atk)

i've been using prudence rod offhand to get rid of the stack of virtue stone toolbag things i have :D

[Ashira]

Mm, as a rule of thumb, I've always mained Morgenstern, Niro.. and not just cuz I wanna be like Naja. Crit hit rate only applies to the weapon in question, so for crit hit chances on Hexa, morgen needs to be main. Same idea as wearing Brutal Earring on WS's... for chances of Double Attack, etc.

lol.. yeah... i do... doing enmity testing, a lot of times for whatever reason i'd be in yigit pants and when i NEEDED to lose shadows.. yeah, i'd just go naked. It got annoying sometimes. Hehe. :D

[Indalecia]

Morg/perdu is what I'm moving up to soon as I get 20 more AP points. Been using Morg/prud for a while now.

[Nirokun!]

i figured prudence would be a great offhand for TP gain? idk too many choices

i think ninjas sub their perdu weapon for the bonuses, but my TP gain i'll just whore out the prudence rod until all my stones are gone then

[Vedder]

make sure that you do not use any items, job abilities, or weaponskils while you are paralyzed, or they most likely will get wasted!

WS won't get para'd btw

I gave the writer credit for knowing this, with the 'check for paralyze' comment being made in reference to the icarus to be popped immediately after the first WS.

But then again, I'm not as jaded as most of you guys.


P.S. - Nice guide, btw. Ignore the haters.

Hmm! Now there's a good idea... I just started up a divine gear collection for Repose too... :D

As for clubs, I usually use SR/Purg cos I'm really lazy about getting stones, plus they get used up so quickly lol >< When I get up far enough in Assaults (damn Nyzul taking all my tags) I'll grab a perdu though, maybe go SR/Perdu or Purg/Perdu depending on the whether.

And yeah as for zomg WHM melee stuff, I remember when I got NIN up to Utsusemi:Ichi and I immediately was like "woot now I can melee stuff on WHM/NIN and get my own coffer keys!" and then proceeded to die horribly in about 10 seconds to a Davoi orc decked out in my exp/event gear cos that's all I had, lol. Now I still die horribly to things, but to much bigger, nastier things.

[Izzy]

Like a previous poster, I soloed both of them on SMN and it was stupid easy...and I'll be dropping both of the clubs soon. They're pretty useless compared to the other options you have.

I wasn't trying to be a cunt, I genuinely wanted to make sure he knew in case he might want to reword that sentence. I try to be nice in this section.

[maahnt]

Brass jagdana+1 is a good option mainhand, it has highest base damage ( except relic )
prudence rod offhand works pretty good.

and lol@seahorror, it is not hundred fist, it is hundred miss >.>
it does not hit hard, jusqt cast few cure to compensate damage taken during HF
