    I don't know why you even consider healing skill... Enhancing is even better than that.

    I did enfeeb/elemental though

    Enfeeb+Elemental

    Unless you're going 5/5 in Bio3 with a dedicated set for solo purposes, then Enfeeb/Dark.

    Meriting healing skill is like meriting Warcry.

    I just thought the Dark Magic skill merits would help against the stun resists when needed <.<

    Even for solo purposes, you will benefit more from elemental than dark skill. Not saying dark skill is useless but yea...

    long shot for the click on bio to outdamage ele merits solo(20 dmg/minute = 200/10 min, 1 resist saved every 10 min will add more damage than that), and won't even get the click without abyssal

    if you don't get resisted, replace skill with damage gear for same effect

    This is probably a weird question but what is better Abaddon Killer or Perdu? I assume Abaddon, but wanted to ask anyway. Stage 4-5 would take me a bit ^^;

    Thorny and Co., I have no idea why you guys even bother replying to this troll.

    I knew I've read his retarded posts somewhere, did a quick search of his 12 posts, here's one of them.

    Would it be better if I said I'm just plain stupid?

    My RDM is currently on my 2nd account and only LV52. I leveled it up via FoV leeching off my PLD killing Cape Terri mobs onry. It was a spur of the moment question that I wanted answered.

    What gear are you using in other slots and what are you fighting? From all of the simulations I've run, I haven't been able to find a situation where you can be ACC capped, full haste in head/hands/legs/feet/belt/ring, and maintain ACC cap and 6 hit build without body while eatting meat.

    if you have a valkyrie's fork, you just need rajas/brutal to have a 6hit(needs 2 out of 3 additional hits of drakes, but can macro white tath if you don't get that).. with thalassocrat/gungnir/ryuno, you use rose strap to the same effect without needing to macro tath if anything misses

    either way, pizza + wyrm > meat + <insert bodypiece of choice> if you can cap acc with pizza

    Assuming your correct, Aurum + Sword Strap would be a stronger combo than Rose Strap + Wyrm, providing more of a delay reduction, and more STR/ATT/DEX/TP per hit

    The only consideration would be if you macro in Ares for jumps would be slightly reduced TP per jumps, in which case you may need to rely on additional hits of Drakesbane.

    2% haste is beaten by -3% delay only if your total haste is below 40% or something ...

    If you need the Accuracy and Attack on Perdu, it's probably better. In capped Acc/Atk situations, Abaddon is probably best. I wouldn't drop Perdu yet. =p But last stage is Bynes so maybe it won't take you as long as you think!

    Ok, I reran the numbers, and assuming Haste, March & Minuet, at least 17% Haste in gear, using Yellow Curry, and ignoring the 16.4% TP per hit and assuming 16.7% for a 6 hit build, then Wyrm Mail +1 + Cuch will do better than Aurum + Forager's.

    War is always at capped Acc, or should be. So it's basically 3 base dmg vs 10atk. Not taken into consideration are those couple of hits you do here and there over 100tp where Perdu is orz. Sounds like Abaddon is better though, makes me happy. ^^

    For Guillotine/Insurgency: Full Ares vs Mix/Match set; Full merits, Pizza +1 in non-xarc dynamis. The numbers I've run have them coming up about even on accuracy, so it comes down to Ares having 36 str/75 atk 7% double attack going up against the mix set's 52 str 61 attack. Targets are non-Xarc dynamis mobs.

    Ignoring the pdif part, it's 7% DA vs <4 base damage, so full ares would win. But shouldn't you use ares legs in both setup anyway ?

    Accuracy is capped with or without, so it's 2 STR 2% DA vs. 11 attack. I've been using full ares for some time and just recently got the ebody, so I don't even own black cuisses right now. Would it be better?
