Final Form Magian Weapons

[chazzyphizzle]

Any verification on how to start WS upgrade trials?

[noodles355]

It looks like it's not an upgrade of your actual WS, but rather a weapon with the magian augments DMG+# Weaponskill: DMG+10%.

For example, the thf dagger was D37 Dly186 Evisceration:DMG+10%.

I hope that means 10% WS damage and not "During Evisceration, adds 10% of WS damage" because augmenting a dagger just for a 40DMG evis would be lolworthy as theres already been some 40dmg dagger added (iirc).

Also, theres some new STP+8 weapons off the same WS damage trial base.
I've only looked at the drg one though, and sadly as it's 492 delay, you can't true 5hit unless you use the Rose Strap/Aurum/Rajas ontop of the new haste/STP+5 belt and carbonara =/

For the ws trials there are 4 ws you can buff with differing base damages. Each ws is the next trial. The last one being your quested ws for your weapon type. Or you can bypass that last one and go for high base dmg and store tp weapon.

Also checked my Soulsaber that currently has Vit+4 Phys Dmg -5 sword and it has 2 more stages. Last stage now is Shamshir which is 48 Base Dmg with Vit +6 Phys Dmg - 8%

Here's a few examples of the lowered requirements on staff trials:

First trial is 50 Treants (down from 100).
All the "kill 100" trials on the way to the cure potency trial (#838) are down to 50.
#834 is still 150 beasts (50+ light damage killing blow).
#817 (a lightning trial) is 75 beasts (down from 100).

For example, the Great Katana route is:

100x Tachi:Goten on any [1595]
200x Tachi:Jinpu on any [1596]
300x Tachi:Koki on birds [1597]

then pick either 1598 or 1599


500x Tachi:Kasha on vermin [1598]
results in
Keitonotachi
DMG 89 Delay 464
Tachi:Kasha DMG+10%

versus
800x Tachi: anything on aquans [1599]
results in
Keitonotachi
DMG 91 Delay 464
Store TP +5

Any mathematically inclined idea on what looks to be the superior route to take for RNG now? I've been waiting for this update before starting TotM, so wondering what works best.

High DMG, OAT, OA2-3x, and double damage all seem appealing, and I haven't even looked into archery yet. Preferably would like to know what's best situationally too, 'cuz I'll prolly do more than one (do VNMs a lot).

Recommendations appreaciated

what does those 2 stages invovle doing?

[huckster]

Hey guys - I'm on Trial 10 with Dagger (Arcana x400). Can I cancel it and go back to Trial 10 / Trial 5 selection? Will I still attain the Trials 2,3,4?

I want to switch to the High DMG Kartika one.

To get the horrible Turkey Fists weapon, it goes (from previously completed Mantis):

Kill Chesma (T2 Coeurl VNM) 8 times
Reward: Mantis DMG+8

Collect 50 Two-Leaf Chloris Buds.
Reward: Verethragna

In case I missed it

I checked my -4 Fenrir staff and there are two new trials:
200 slime kills with xp using Fenrir
250 raptor kills with xp using Fenrir

Gives -5 perp cost to dark type

Niiiiice. And it sounds like the Empyrean trials require you to farm Abyssea mobs for X amount of drops... not the end of the world I suppose, but from what I head Abyssea is super hard atm.

[Uubu]

Gaxe Bonesplitter -> Ukowhatever 80 gaxe is 8 Chesma also and 50 glavoid shells...

anyone seen where to get them? i assume abbysea

Forgot to mention the last trial turned it into a diff name and the icon looked like hope staff, forgot what it was called right now. It was level 80.

Any wargfang owners tested it to see any changes?

According to a friend of mine who has them, the OAT functions on both fists AND stacks with DA. It could be lag, though.

please be right and please don't be nerfed.

I find the first completely possible, but the second one highly unlikely because it doesn't work with the other Magian weapons. Though they could have broke something in trying to fix the other problem.

[Motenten]

Someone mentioned 5 attacks per round on Alla. He's probably including a kick in there to get that, and someone misinterpreted it as 5 normal punches.

[Cream Soda]

Motenten you're here! any update on memlock?

So my Isatu is sitting on the decision between Ruthven's OAT trial and the OA3x trials, If my main hand is fully unlocked [as of last update] high-damage Mozu trial, I'm thinking OA3x should be better mechanically with WS spam offhand. Can anybody confirm/deny the math of this if OA3x is 30:50:20?
