Post Pictures of Your Gear VI: ...or just post math about it.

[Ratatapa]

Assembling your perfect fantasy mind build in photoshop...and you put the tamas on the wrong fucking finger.

jk, nice post, it's exactly what I would have told him if I could be assed to click ffxiah links.

So your saying Drop the HQ staves and enfeebling torque for this on WHm enfeeb?


What about BLM enfeeb?

[ninjafox]

This is kind of a nooby question, but what exactly would you use valhalla breastplate for? It doesn't seem like a good piece to macro in for something like flash or something since it has slow on it. I'm no pld, but I'm just curious as to what all the excitement is about

/WAR Idle maybe?

If you're fighting something that strips shadows super quick and end up being hit a lot or has instant aoe's like Hurricane Wing from Fafnir etc, it's nice.(Since it's Damage Taken and not physical dmg only.) But yeah, V body is great for /war /rdm or /drk idle since you don't have shadows. And you'd most likely be wearing Koenig head instead of V Head if you were any of those subs.

Pretty much.

For BLM enfeebles just stack as much INT/enfeebling/magic acc. as possible. Their potency doesn't increase with INT like MND enfeebling magic does.

k so i can keep my torque for black enfeeb and HQ staves np

Oh looky, Uryuu's almost talking like a real pld!

You wouldn't get the same effect from Koenig cuirass? Probably not magic damage taken but wouldn't the 20 VIT do something for physical hits?

Post pics of your gear, not links Q.Q.

Also, as good as jelly ring is, it doesnt make a great idle piece, since magic damage will comprise alot of the damage you are taking in a good deal of events. No reason to idle in -4 emnity either.

For cure3 your cure build is fine but dont underrate fast cast, I'd also recommend a more emnity down setup for cure4.

Also, you want 2 enfeeble sets (mnd build and skill build) at least.

edit: my comments were to the rdm a few pages back apparently..

Care to post your sets? I assume thats town gear and not your idle set, emnity set, DD set, defense down set, or well im not sure what set that would be.

White Tathlum actually but yeah it is. But, seeing as AV isn't killable currently (so far as we know) I didn't include it.

F u Indy.

It would, but not -5% I'm quite sure. (Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.)

It would, but not -5% I'm quite sure. (Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.)

Unless Im mistaken with all the number magic behind fstr and damage:

Increasing your vit by 20 will reduce the fstr of the mob by 3-4. This is basically 3-4 less damage taken multiplied by the pDif (def/attack calc).

For a mob hitting you for 300 damage a hit, you would save 15 damage by using Valhalla body, but the damage taken while using keonig would depend on your current defense/vit and the mobs attack/str. The lower your defense, the more damage vit will reduce (due to that 3-4 fstr value being multiplied by higher attack/def ratio from the mob). On mobs where their str isnt much higher than yours and your def isnt too crappy in comparision to their attack, vit wont do much for you.

So basically valhalla > keonig for damage reduction, except maybe in places where you have lower defense and the mob is of sufficient str/lvl gap from you (i.e. keonig might actually be as good or better for /nin than /war. and on mobs with very high attack or where you are not getting minne/tacos.).

Someone can corrent my interpretation.

All has it's place though, I get alot of use out of my valhalla pieces and kaiser/ares pieces.

[hezzel]

Which fucking sucks because I want one ; ;

You already have a Mammol Ja Earring, shut it!

This is my BRD, it has recently obtained a lot of equipment so I wanted to show it off. Of course it is no way perfect still lacking simple gear like rostrum pumps, and astute cape.

Singing - need rostrums. Not a fan of using minstrel's ring for events but definitely for meripo.

Lullaby/Finale - This set needs much more improvement, but basically it is used for events where I rarely would ever get resisted on lullaby and i can go to haste for recast over CHR/Skill.

Stoneskin - This is a 323 stoneskin. All I need is Suzaku's sune-ate to hit the 350 cap.
