THF NIN WAR WHM, get shit done. (This applies to pretty much every empyrean though)
Which weapon is the ODD best for? Note that I am excluding the WS from calculations because I'm thinking in terms of "If we get a WS in the future that is better..." rather than present situations.
If Gaxe, H2H, Katana, Sword, Bow, Gkatana, Gsword, Polearm will get any better WS on the way to 99 I will be shocked. Those WS are overpowered already and I doubt they will addd anything stronger in term of pure damage. My bet is they will add something useful situational like strong AoE like Fell cleave for other weapons, add effect reset TP, AoE gravity/sleep, strong elemental to Gaxe for example etc.
Polearm WS is overpowered? I thought it was Wheeling Thrust +1?
i didnt say relic is a challenge tho but its harder as not many people can really get that much gil to make 1 anyway. even for me, i can only make 2 more max while i can make all empy if i want. Mythic is the real achievement tho
as for bukhis, 2 NIN and whm/blm can kill it easy. I did mine with an ochain PLD tho makes it even easier haha
I'm not sure about that. On Cor at least I have to use Fire+ and MAB+ atmas, so my Ratt is probably usually uncapped. That combined with using a solid 5 hit and fire shots to get 100tp faster, means I have a very low % of my DPS from normal shots.
From what I've seen, the "most impressive" or "most contributing ODD to DPS" weapons have been the 2 handed weapons with decent WSs (since you'll have the ODD most of the time): Ukon, Masa, etc.
As for the "why post pics debate":
I don't post many of our Empyrean pics here, but I enjoy seeing other people complete them. It's not a "holy shit" accomplishment, but they're a ton of fun and everyone that finishes one is pretty happy to have it done and has a blast with it, so there really isn't a good reason to downplay the reward. I know the more experienced players and LSs can finish them pretty fast (our fastest time was 3.5 hours for 50 gems), but it's still a pretty good achievement for the players with less resources/capabilities. It makes people happy, they're really powerful at the moment, and it doesn't hurt anything, so I don't see a reason to close/move/lock this thread.
That being said, I do agree Mythics are the only thing that make me still go "wow", even if they're less than impressive in most instances.
Grats to Neviskio, nice to see someone who I remember being a pink power ranger mnk in a pickup group actually caring about improving his character.
there are people who dont care about gearing up their char?! O_o except those mules and in the wtf confused thread
I'm asking primarily because a LV85 Empyrean weapon without the benefit of a good WS primarily depends on the ODD and STAT to make up for its shortcomings if that clarifies it. I can use Drakesbane regardless of weapon (FUCKYA).
Finally finished today after spamming, and trying to finish before the server merge. Now 24 buds and we can bid Tahrongi farewell for a good while. <_<
I dedicate this post to malicite:
