Acerbic Sash: Testing

[miokomioko]

I don't understand... Isn't it obvious that by wearing this sash, you're trading 7 of each attribute for enmity-7? Opo-opo Crown was obvious (you receive pamamas with it), but Acerbic Sash isn't all negative like the crown is.

trollin right?

Considering I have Swift Belt (plus other haste stuff) in all my macros for those spells right now, pretty much. Plus it seemed funny in my head when I posted it

I still think it's nice as it is for macroing in for some JAs, although it's true it would probably only make a difference for lowman stuff, rather than things like Einherjar or Dynamis where everyone is pulling hate in every direction anyway.

High-tier Curagas, Divine Waltz II, etc. would seem to be the best abilities to benefit from this, I would think.

Isn't there a new haste belt with HP-75 and a bunch of negative elemental resists? I assume it's kind of like that.

Isn't there a new haste belt with HP-75 and a bunch of negative elemental resists? I assume it's kind of like that.

When 90% of the mobs you exp/fight/etc don't have any notable elemental attacks period, and those that do are a weak ele AoE, -50 to elements is a pretty awesome trade off for a whopping 7% haste.

Compared to this belt, which is just 7 emnitty, which I think there are other belts with a lot of emnitty- on them as well without negative trade offs, and having to trade off the equivalent of matts cap turned inside out, well, I can understand how shepard sees this as an awkward and fishy piece, and I agree there is something off about it.

Have you tried testing various %s of mp or hp?

Edit: derp, did you try fruit juices like orange juice? Could maybe increase the length/potency of effects of juices or something?

A ton of the new gear has a stat-trade-off theme, if you hadn't noticed.

Saw this today and immediately thought of this sash.

If it has a similar effect to Opo-opo crown then maybe the item used to activate it is similar as well.

The next best -enmity belt is theta sash with -5, and its a ??? item from assault. Next best are spectral belt, buccaneer's belt, and pythia sash with -4. Its an upgrade for spells where you don't care about stats or haste. You should stop wasting your time testing, you aren't going to find anything.

it's an item used to turn in for the current final OaT Katana upgrade, doubtful its consumable
