    Id only suggest Acids on non-Colibri mobs pre-Obow and that is few and far between these days. Once you get an Obow, DS bolts are made of win.

    My memory may be fuzzy but I dont think they proc'd on puks either but maybe that is just my irrational hatred of Puks in general.

    EDIT: Yeah, acids really bring out the best in crossbow in parties, but Obow's DPS is absurd, even without the defense down.
    Obow seems pretty easy to get from that NM

    I'll probably start using guns in bird parties, bows and crossbows seem to be the way to go, time to start saving up some loot

    They have low proc rates on Puks and Mamool, so no, you're not crazy.

    I'd do xbow up until 55(colibri, can't stick acid) and then use musketeer's gun(+1/+2) until obow. You get your endgame ammo at 50 for guns which sort of rocks the shit out of everything else.

    Also, with rajas you get a 6hit while /nin if you use even musketeer's gun +1 and silver bullets.

    or

    Drone Earring

    For quickdraw macro?

    I'm guessing diamond earring FTW?

    Snow Ring or Balrahn's for Bind (Soloing up in sky)
    Goliard Saio or Warlock's Tabard+1 for Utsusemi(Tabard for spell interruption rate down)
    And finally 5 Ice 3 wind 2 Earth for Rdm C1 Merits?
    Or 5 Ice / 5 Wind (Looking to mainly be soloing things)

    CONVERT TIMER DOWN chose either wind or ice and put 5(a lot do Ice for bind paralyze and blizzard III consideration. or do 3 into ice 2 into wind(But probably better in the long run to just pick one (Looking to mainly be soloing things)

    What should I get first, upgrade lolecphoria ring to toreadors or foragers to chuchulains?

    Note I can also then sell foragers and upgrade another piece of gear, maybe swap a lolcoral earring with a dex earring or something, dunno.

    ^ What job? I'd most likely do Cuch as it is a bigger benefit when you do need it.

    Edit since you replied: for DNC, I use Suppa/Brutal, which is particularly nice since I offhand Joyeuse. If I didn't have Suppa, I guess second choice would be Hollow (I have Ethereal), then Diabolos's.

    Bandomusha Kote or Myn Kote +1 for SAM Penta?

    Also, even with 8/8 Polearm merits, spamming crab sushi at Colibri camp is still best, yes? I still lack Usu feet, Love Torque, and Cuch mantle for sam polearm build. I could buy the Cuch mantle now, but putting my current gil towards Morri Robe atm.

    Bando capped acc i'd say, Myn uncapped acc. Seeing as you're pushing 8 h2h merits and sushi, no way you can't be capped (as i can cap w/o sushi). Go w/ bkote.

    Looks like my B kotes will no longer rot in storage anymore. Once I do get Usu feet, Love Torque, and Cuch Mantle, will that bring my acc up high enough to be able to spam meat instead? I have Haub +1, Tomoe, PCC, etc for now.

    Someone mentioned earlier that the stp feet that enhance riceballs are almost or just as good for polearm at colibri. I don't have the setup memorized though but you get something like atk+50 for each peice of riceball enhancing gear you wear which can get to idk +150atk from food during ws for penta depending on what the actual ideal setup for it is.
