Cursed Trews -1 Question

[Kaeko]

Has anyone attempted to mass spam for these? I know it's probably a rare situation to ask for.

I looked at Wiki and it said it was 95 cloth with unknown goldsmith and leather subs. I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to Tier 1 these or if the 2 subs were too high to do that?

I have seen some bazaars filled with NQ on Gilgamesh, but can't really tell if it's T1 or 0 sorry have only seen one -1 for sale so prob T0 but can't be sure

[Spekkio]

i have a friend that constructed over 20 (possibly many more) before finally giving up and NQing.

[Kaeko]

Hmm ok thanks guys

Morrigan's are generally better but just wanted to see =P

I suspect wki is wrong on that CC level, but as I'm not CC main I cannot prove it.

Interested in this item myself, had been hoping to be able to shoot for a -1 if I ever get the abj for it, but seeing how it seems to be a tier 0 I may just have to settle for NQ.

Do you think it would be a good replacement for a BLM? Currently have mahatma and don't expect to see morrigains anytime soon, so I thought it would make a decent upgrade due to the Magic Acc on it.

Edit: ffxiah is saying 97 CC

OK so looks like T0 for sure.

NQ is worse than Mahatma on Tier IVs if you're well geared. The typical train of thought is 1 MAB ~= 2 INT, but obviously it will depend on how much of each you have.

Generally, 8 INT ~= 4 MAB, but at high amounts of MAB, you can see noticeable diminishing returns, making 2 INT superior to 1 MAB. Any BLM with capped merits and that uses Sorcerer's Ring / has a Novio I would say should prioritize 2 INT over 1 MAB. This is why Morrigan's Slops is the best pure DD piece for legs outside of day element conditions.

Morrigan's Slops > Valkyrie Trews > Mahatma Slops > Shadow Trews

for pure damage. Though Trews do have some MACC on it I guess.

[Knightfell]

I was assuming since 8 INT ~= 4 MAB that things would more or less be equal, but didn't add in the diminishing returns of high Mab.

Looks like morrigains it is, thanks for the input.

LS mate got them made not to long ago, I think he went like 1/16.

wouldn't the NQ pants outparse mahatma (and maybe HQ over morg) on ga3's and low to very low int targets? they're not useless, just highly situational.

Yea it should essentially always outparse on Ga3s because of the 1.5 INT mod + very high base damage on Ga3. Low INT targets I guess it's true but I'm fairly certain it has to be low like in the TW mob range.

I am 0/58 currently for -1

[Spekkio]

damn. thought you gave up on them. i guess that cinches that they're t0. wish i could figure out conclusively if h feet are t0 or not before i blow a bunch of money trying to HQ them.

[detlef]

Spend now. Ask questions later.

I wouldn't say that cinches anything, as I'm 0/60ish crafting a Communion Ring for myself and we know that it's t1. Could just be bad luck.

[Atreides]

0/19 on these myself currently, but I went 1/20 on blessed mitts+1 and 1/15 on genie lappa so who really knows

[hedcc]

we have a person with the -1's on unicorn not sure how many tries it took him to make it

[Atreides]

0/27 now and out of therion ichor ; ;

luckily no one in my LS needs it for anything really anymore...

[Atreides]

ope nvm...

1/31!

Grats on the Trews! I've been trying to craft one myself but haven't gotten a chance to do more synths lately - just 0/3 so far. I've been checking ffxiah every now and then and there seem to be at least 5 or so registered users who had the the HQ equipped on and off, so at first it looked like it might be t1. Seeing some of the HQ rates here though it doesn't really look like it is ;/

[Knightfell]

Grats on the sexy HQ!
