    Januwiyah +1 vs Wyvern Targe

    We are arguing the fact of which is obviously better, we were having a discussion in the LS but we can't get to the bottom.

    Turban
    SE Body
    Homam 3/5
    Swift Belt (With the option of Haste Belt)
    HP Rings (With the Blitz Ring option)
    HP Earrings
    Some HP +10 Ammo
    Mercurial Kris
    Shield arguement
    Gigant Mantle

    One question we are trying to resolve is with:

    Haste Spell
    SV Marches
    Haste Samba

    Is haste capped?

    We concluded that with the mercurial kris's 192 Delay we multiplied .75 * 192 - 192

    Getting 48 delay

    With the Wyvern Targe we got

    .76 * 192 - 192

    Getting 46.08 delay

    _____________

    Obviously getting the Wyvern Targe a better result, for you professional DRKs how to maximize DMG?

    Another question is, is the gear cap 25% or 26%? One of my members is arguing that haste is measured in .9% Haste = 1 haste resulting in 26% Haste being the haste cap.


    Thank you for reading this and answering the questions, I hope there isn't many trolls.

    Can you please direct me to the location? ^^ The post is rather large, and confusing at that.

    The first post is self-explanatory, the thread exists to keep more This vs. That threads from littering Standard/Advanced. Ask your question there.

    Haste cap is, gear-wise, 26%. http://www.bluegartr.com/forum/52417...ste-topic.html is a good reference.

    Basically: You aren't getting the full % of that last 1% to hit 26, but you are capping out at 256/1024.

    i think you need 25.6 or 25.7% haste to officially reach cap so yea 26% in gear for 1 handed weapons. Hp everywhere else.

    - FFXIAH.com

    I can't think of much else thats better minus kclub, if you have dusk+1 gloves (i'm 0/7 on crafting them atm but i'll keep at it!) i'll switch out wyvern targe for janu+1 for more hp

    this is of course drk/drg

    drk/mnk is another viable option, turtle soup or some other retardedly expensive and not really needed food lol.

    ninja edit:

    the goal is yes 26% haste, cap that out then work on hp everywhere else etc.

    Just nitpicking it. Couger gorget is 5 HP more than Ritters, and I would use happy egg over bomblet. That's about it.

    Cougar Pendant for 5 more HP, and as an Octave DRK I use Fenrir's ammo or happy egg for 30/15-18ish more HP over acc/att. Wish I had a Kraken so I could get Homam, but Octave is still awesome. Even if it isn't used much ;/

    Good luck on finding the targe though, it's barely on the AH.

    Could always just make someone level cor or something to 72 and just level sync to him.

    Thereby making the whole party 72 or having a 2-man party gimp up your alliance. It could work occasionally but not very often. Awesome solution: 6 OC DRKs and at least one of them being actually level 72. Fiar.

    But 6 OC DRKs would have no BRD buffs

    We have about 6 in our shell, 2 of them are 72 (One is my alt, so that solves the temptation of levelling it to 75). We usually bring 4 when we zerg, and stuff 2 BRDs in there as well. Works quite well, aside from the obvious fact that you need 2 BRDs that can't swap parties, or at least need have them swap fast due to level sync/no Troubadour.

    I was meaning it for the sake of having multiple OC Drks.
