Thats old, ive since reposted the gear I use.
I already said, I dont have a DM earring, and I choose Magnetic from AN, there really isnt much else I can use in the 2nd ear slot.
Right now I use Brutal + Triumph Earring for lack of a better 2nd earring. I have life belt now because I was using Potent on SAM but have since sold potent and using life on both jobs till I can get swift.
All you are doing is nit picking, Is my cor 100% perfect? No, I still need to get a swift belt cause it hasnt dropped, an I need to redo DM, and get Denali body and legs. Cant control drops my friend.
I can assure you though, my COR is geared better then 90% of the people since most just half ass the job and think "as long as I can roll, no one will care what I wear!"
There is a lot of potential in cor that most people just dont give a shit about.
I really hope you've picked up at LEAST a NQ corsair's gun for QD now. I realize no one makes them, but the materials cost like 20k.
Also, COR is one of those jobs where being better than 90% of the population simply demonstrates you aren't retarded. I would suggest setting your standard to comparison within the legitimate COR population that actually knows how to gear and play the job.
I'll give you that denali drops suck, though. I won't bitch at you for that.
I found that post by checking your post history from newest to oldest, only other COR one I saw was a ranged set, so can you link me to where you reposted since I might have missed it?Originally Posted by Jornna
It's not really nitpicking when you said you think the haste is useless, since it's not by any standards. As far as complaining about swift belt drops(which is so cliche btw, the shit's like 1/3 droprate), the mithra is duoable and it takes roughly 2 hours to max hate and go kill it, in just the time you lurk here you could fit in a dozen runs a week if not more. I'm not mocking you for lack of denali body and legs, hell I was 1/40-odd on legs and lost lot.. 2/2 body and won both though.Originally Posted by Jornna
Replace chiv chain with spectacles if you can't afford PCC, you can replace triumph with diabolos'(diabolos is a joke nowadays, even with a pickup party, just bring a few jobs with good 2hrs and a rdm/drk to zerg it down). STR is fucking useless for COR meleeing as over 50% of your damage is coming from WS, same reason life>potent and specs>chiv.Originally Posted by Jornna
While I don't disagree with either statement, the first is the same logic as:Originally Posted by Jornna
You're passing up easy upgrades because you think you're already better than most CORs.Originally Posted by Bozo
Show me where I said "haste is useless?" Cause I believe I said more along the lines of "I dont use haste gear sometimes cause it feels like im gaining less TP"
Which, to be clear, since I guess I haven't made it clear enough, I use acc gear on higher level/more evasive mobs.
Thank you for point out the diabolos earring though since ive been looking for a 2nd ear piece to melee in and compeletly forget about it.
As far as Swift goes and Diabolos as well. Ramuh is a pretty shitty server to try and get help to do anything though shouts or pick ups. lol Plus, being in the PST and working mid-day/closing shifts, makes it hard to do things like this, when 90% of the people I know, are not in the PST time zones.
Luckly, I am in a PST LS now so hopefully ill be able to work on swift again.
And no, im not passing up easy upgrades. Its 1) My time is more limited now in game by working a lot of of hours and generally trying to have more of a real life.
If I wasnt trying to upgrade my job, I wouldnt be trying to get Denali Jacket/legs, swift belt, and COR relic hat, every chance I got now would I? And I wouldnt havent spent any time I had in Limbus zones to upgrade Feet/Head/Body on COR either.
Again, if you can't get 67% acc with sushi and whatever buffs you're doing, you likely shouldn't be meleeing that mob on COR.Originally Posted by Jornna
Had the pleasure of partying with this today.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NO
NO
NO
NO FUCKKKKKKKKK
She had some halfway decent gear too, till someone asked her to be first voke, the she swapped to and full timed that for the rest of the pt.
lol, I had pretty much the opposite. 1/39 on body and about 1/3 on legs.
Seeing as you care enough to defend yourself so adamantly, I'll assume you care about what some random people on an internet forum care about how you play the game. In that case, I'll tell you that I'd respect you a lot more, like Thorny said, if you use the time you spend making these responses in working on your gear. I'm really not going to harp on having the best gear out there, but again, there are very simple upgrades (like corsair's gun for QD) that are nearly effortless.
Looks like that entire party was gimp.
