Many of us don't have much interest in/the ability to commit too an HNM LS schedule, etc, etc.

Nice as the gear is, I can't attempt that due to the constantly varying nature and the way I'd have to miss weeks at a time til it went back into a more favorable window.

Also: Is there ANY gear where the +1 adds more Hp/Mp/Tic regen/refresh?

[Osede]

I've never tried it before, but can you use sneak/invis to get past mobs in limbus? Or all true sight/sound?

probably true sight/sound. It should be just same as the mobs in dynamis.

I've heard but can't confirm that Muscle Belt +1 does.

I believe they said that the Shadow Breastplate was also 2hp/tic. I'll try to find the thread.

edit: found it viewtopic.php?f=31&t=30607&hilit=shadow+breastplat e

May be proof, but it is difficult to sift through exactly what the owner of it actually discovered.

The question wasn't whether any gear adds 2/tick, it's whether or not the +1 of said gear increases the rate of recovery over the NQ.

Neck pieces for Raging Rush/Steel Cyclone.

I know that Steel Cyclone is one-hit and therefore a sea gorget is probably best, and I have a Breeze Gorget to use for that. I also have a Fortitude Torque, though. Is Gorget > Torque?

For Raging Rush, should I get a sea gorget for that (don't have one yet for RR), or should I just use Fortitude Torque for the accuracy/attack? Alternatively, Spike Necklace? <_> Sounds nab, I know, but STR and DEX on a crit-based. . .

Thanks.

Gorget for cyclone, Torque for Rush.

At least that's what I use /shrug

Starting a salvage group, if we have a Corsair with us, would we want a BRD or a WHM for bosses? (only one other WHM)

brd. elergy and march provide alots of benefits.

[Therin]

Would this be good for critical hit weaponskills (Raging Rush, Rampage, Vorpal Blade, Skewer):

Not that I have 15,000 ampoules yet, but just planning ahead.

spike necklace +1? id probably stick with pcc/torque

[Niiro]

If your ACC is stellar (90%+) it would be worth using I think, but if not I wouldn't even bother with it, marginal improvement.

Cure V and Regen III are priceless in salvage and on Bosses in particular. I've beaten bosses several times w/o brd but it's a bit harder due to no marches. If you can I suggest whm+brd+rdm combo for support.

Not sure if this has been asked before, and I'm a bit too busy to search for it right now, but are Denali Wristbands or Ochiudo's Kote better for Blade: Jin?

Wristbands are 4str, 6 attack, and kote are 20attack, i would get nin tekko +1 but I have awful luck with limbus

Just use Kote until you get Tekko +1.

thanks, but I was wondering, would the 4 str be more beneficial over the 14 attack in double brd pts where you generally have over 700 attack? I only get like +30 str for WS so my attack:str ratio is kinda meh

How much MND does a 75blm with no +enhancing need to cap stoneskin?

edit: assume hume blm/rdm, base 62 MND

[Martinius]

its either 114 or 119 total MND(i think its 119 but i just woke up from a nap :3) with no enhancing skill, but capped skill of 200. that means you need to come up with 57 mnd, which sounds like a lot but really isnt. off the top of my head, errant body, kirin's pole is 20, prism cape, mahatma slops and penitent's rope brings that to 37, promise badge to 42., yigit turban makes 46, errant feet makes 51, if you have a tamas that's 56, and close enough for government work... mahatma feet would take you to 57.

[Keria]

Oh ok that's cool, think I have 62+52 without pole right now. :D

[Leeto]

It's 114. Going from 113>114 only gives you 1 more point of damage on SS though.
