Now I want to see a dd excal rdm

i was actually about to do that but sided with yoichi instead. i think there is a lot of potential excal rdm has yet to realize

[Tsuko_Asura]

You're either there to DD or not - a RDM/DRG is going to be constantly interrupted because of healing, enfeebling, enhancing, or some combination of the three.

More so if you're in the tank party, which is likely the only way you have any hope of getting double marches

[Yugl]

pld needs its sub at hnm though, in many cases rdm doesnt need its sub at all and can /drg with excal. with full sword merits and hp merits, rdm only is behind in total hp - which may even out since they wont be taking much damage.

this is best set i could figure with sushi

acc figures to be around 85-90% with that on almost anything

Looking at 410ACC at most with full merits + Composure + ACC trait from DRG sub + Sushi.

Skill ACC = 200 + 59 = 259
DEX ACC = (53+8=61)*(.5) = 30
Composure ACC = 15
DRG Trait ACC = 10
Gear ACC = 39 (And you used Swift > Velo?)
Total ACC = 353
Total ACC(Sushi) = 353*1.16 = 409-410 ACC

You need higher for HNMs. That said, there will still be merit mobs you will not cap on such as Mamool and Trolls. Barely cutting it for Colibri.

Edit: Fixed it since I just remembered this is 1H not 2H...

You also seem to be completely overlooking Atonement

yet a pld is also doing his fair share of healing, enhancing, shadows, or some combination of the three. I think both cast pretty evenly. Difference is, rdm spells typically have a set amount of time before they need to to be casted again and those range in the minutes and not seconds.

I will concede that I didn't really think about atonement. Regardless, a rdm excal could easily hold it's own and especially be helpful in lowman situations. It's a large chunk of DD that is otherwise impossible without excal. My overall point is that an excal rdm is not laughable standing next to an excal pld - we've simply yet to see one because nobody has really tried it. the biggest difference is likely that rdm takes a lot more gear.

And Yugl, i swapped some of the gear (i hadnt changed it yet from a previous build) so your acc calculations are about 20 short. it will be very rare for a rdm to be capping acc on most things, but at 26% haste it's not the end

I don't quite get why you'd wear that neckpiece over something like Morgana's Choker... but then wear Ixion Cape over Errant.

I'm not normally one to pick over someone's gear, but that just struck me as a bit odd.

Uh, it's town gear? Do you think he's also going to be casting anything in full Marduk's?

[seiji]

saw a(taru) rdm/nin melee vulpangue with exca/joy (was in 7/8 people ally)
gimping his dmg with lower *2/add proc from exca or joy make for it with extra swings/ws?

That's a pretty sweet STP setup assuming the TP phase is met correctly. I count stp+19 (the 2 hachi pieces=5stp), which isn't enough for 5hit /war and is too much stp for 5hit /sam. This means the TP phase would need an excess of STP, so I guess skadi legs+brutal (or something similar) would be enough overkill (/war). I hope that's the case, I love seeing that gun being put to good use.
