Could use Perdu Sickle and replace the Moli Ring with a Triumph Ring, then you'd be looking at STR2 DMG2 vs Attack14-1 (STR2 = Atk1) where the Attack will likely win.

Not a big fan of Moliones' <_<;

That works too, I was going for the Moliones's set here because more overall STR. The full Ares's set is actually a bit lacking in that. Also don't forget that you have 2 base damage bonus over Perdu when using Moliones's.

Yeah, nothing wrong with what you said I just get butthurt cause my Perdu never gets any love

Yeah, I think the differences between the two sets are very small, honestly, and therefore I can't justify spending the IS on a Perdu. It's like having slightly more WS damage and not having to macro shit off for Souleater vs. slightly more overall TP damage.

I don't like Tredecim anymore though! Not since the /SAM update, at least.

Does Breeze Gorget work with raging rush since it can close fragmentation?

Raging Rush skillchain properties: ice, water
So, no. Only Snow and Aqua Gorgets work.

[LinktheDeme]

How are skill chain properties determined? I thought it was just by what it could close

[Suiram]

It closes Fragmentation by virtue of it being water element, not wind/thunder. Induration to Reverberation = Fragmentation

[LinktheDeme]

I see and where is this chart? Or are you all just going off the renkei chart?

[Suiram]

It's from the renkai charts, basically. There's two different forms of them, the one that has the bubbles with all the WSs (and BPs and Blu spells) and arrows linking them up, which I think most people prefer, and the ones that just show the general connection of elements and then list WSs and their elemental properties, which I personally prefer but not many do, but are easier to use to figure out which gorget you need.

If you use a chart of the second variety then it's straightforward, but if you use a chart of the more popular type, then do this: If it's a lower-level (pre-200) weaponskill, look for any lvl1 skillchains it closes and those are the gorgets you can use (it may also close a level 2 but for the reasons like how Raging Rush closes frag above, so unimportant for choosing a gorget). If it's a higher-level weaponskills, you can use the element of any Lv1 it closes, or if it can close a level 2 from an elemental attribute that can also be used to make a Lv3, and look at the two element associated with that.

For instance in your Greataxe example, you probably want one that works for both RR and SC. So you look at RR, it can't close light/dark, and it can close Induration and Reverberation for Lv1s, so you need Ice or Water. Then you look at SC, for Lv1 it can close Detonation so Wind would work, and when it makes Darkness it works as a "Distortion Element" since it can also close Lv2 > Lv2 Distortion (for instance, Savage Blade > Steel Cyclone is Distortion) so Ice and Water would also work. So you get Ice or Water gorget since it works for both weaponskills.

Would a one MP/tick refresh be sufficient for keeping rune chopper's latent active? Or would there be an off tick in which it wouldn't be?

[Tormentormike]

WAR category one merits, I see lots of people with 5/5 Bergressor, but is that really better than 5 in double attack, and maybe 2/3 bergressor?

[isladar]

"Better" is entirely subjective. 4 DA 3/3 Burgergressor is the middle ground of all the options, and will be entirely acceptable whether you're "ZOMG GA ONLY HURRRRR" or "Ridill Ridill nigga".

[Bakthi]

ffxiclopedia also has the properties of each WS listed, and the page for each gorget lists the WSs that work with it. But you can do it yourself if you really want.

It will be on half the time

It was recently posted in another thread(by Belkin, second post down) that just 1mp/tic would keep it going all the time.

Who's right?

put on a rune axe and find out. it's every other tick unless they changed something since i last looked. bst/nin would commonly wear gaudy harness (or get sanction refresh since ToAU came out) and wear dual rune axes to get a 10 hp/tick regen, but it would only be every other tick.

my own question: i was doing a crystal fist III today with clothcraft as my selected field. one item that was offered me was very unusual, the demon pen. ignoring the phallic joke here (and the odd design of the demon models...) i find its inclusion strange. i know it's normally used for the quest to get the lolgoblingrenade, but the items listed in the selections had always been used in SOME craft, even if it didn't necessarily make a lot of sense to be included (like rhodenite as a clothcraft choice.) i wonder if this is perhaps used in a craft we don't know about yet or if it's just some random, joke inclusion by SE.

Did this stop being the question thread and become the go do it yourself thread? Why would I buy an axe when I can just get some extra confirmation here? I'm a bit curious because Belkin's a pretty reliable source, but so is Maxx.

Here, let me answer your question for you. "Go level all crafts to 100 and check the recipe NPC/Guild master for synths with Demon Pen in it."
