A monk parses counters before shadows go, right? That is to say you can counter while having shadows up.

No.

6 Hit Build (I use PCC instead of Chiv Chain):

Brutal + Rajas + Carbonara (allowing for Snipers +1)
or
Brutal + Rajas + Ecphoria (allowing for food other then Carbonara)

Which would be the better alternative?

The latter, by far. Unless you have a reason to want the HP bonus off Carbonara.
You're comparing the +3 acc gain on using a Snipers +1 vs the 15 att and 1 str of a food like Coeurl Sub. If you use better food that subs, you're seeing an even greater difference. There aren't that many situations where most people would prefer 3 acc over 15 att.

Pretty sure Subs are cheaper than Carbonara on most server too, if that has any bearing for you.

Thought they were just rare, but wasn't sure if something was changed, thanks!

Does anyone have a screenshot of the old Vermillion Cloak/Black Cloak(if this one was even changed)? The one where they were laid down instead of the shitty version we have now.

Wow... don't look at the rest of the gear but...

Quick question. I've been leveling staff on and off for a little bit now, and I was wondering did SE nerf skill ups from weapon skills and I missed it or something? I've never gotten a single skill up from a staff weapon skill at all so far.

What WSes have you been using? I'm speaking from personal experience, but certain types of WSes have never seem to given me skill ups, IE magical type wses. I am very possibly wrong, but that's my take on it. If it's not that, go for bad luck.

I could have sworn leveling up dagger on RDM I got skill ups from Gust Slash. I don't remember too vividly though.




Question:
This is craftish but I feel safer in this thread.

Can you have craft skill+ items for multiple crafts? i.e. Magnifying Spectacles and Caduceus. And will you keep the key items you gained from GPs if you end your contract with that craft?

[Clash Perez]

Currently THF69. Harpe/Sirocco until 72, then Blau/Sirocco? For those times when /WAR is an option, Harpe/Viking?

Behemoth's +1 look interesting for the extra Attack, but the delay sucks. Do they fit in anywhere?

Also, should I switch to Tatami as soon as I can use it? Does the STR+5 trump the ATT+12 on WS?

-Heavy Swing
-Rock Crusher
-Earth Crusher

Never gotten a single skill up from any of them. I've watched my chat log very closely so I did not miss anything.

5 Acc 5 Att 2 Dmg makes it Trump Byakko's, but where I've seen them parsed, 6% Crit Trumped Byakko's too.

I've just had ANOTHER Assault static die just as it started, so my Perdu is looking further and further away. T.T

Otherwise I'd be parsing the shit out of the two.

[Noob]

Potent or Warwolf for RR consistency? 8/8 Greataxe, nearing ideal build.

[Poooter]

14 TP from shark bite? Never seen it before myself. Anyone care to explain if i triple'd on both weapons or....?
