Omega Ring is great for QD as well; Balrahn's too if you have it. And staves are not a waste if you are QD'ing on HNM. Can get 350-450 QDs pretty easily with rolls (at least on wyrms, I don't really recall being COR for much else).

dunno if anyone saw it or not but, for melee set with /nin, would mkris be worth it? or add in a racc dagger?

MKris is great for meleeing COR period. But why sub NIN? I really never sub it unless I'm soloing something; /WHM or /RDM for most endgame events, /DNC for most merits, and /WAR if merit party doesn't need the extra healing.
ppl are very often under the impression that /nin is how everyone who isn't subbing a mage job should be so I am forced to go /nin sometimes.

Also, for WS, would STR rings be better or would Breeze rings?

Edit: nvm question answered

Also, make sure you've got enough RACC in here to hit the mob... COR gets shafted in that department.

An Anwig Salade with RACC 10/RATT 5 and STR 4/WS ACC 15 augments is very nice if you can get it. That's 4STR 5RATT and 25RACC on slug from a head piece alone.
yea already using the mog head for blm >< I have PCC, af head, crimson hands and (soon) dusk legs. Not to mention, I often /rng if I'm going to be shooting most of the time.

Yup.

STR > AGI always, unless it's a substantial amount of AGI or you're capped on fSTR2 or whatever it is...not sure what it is, but I know you're going to have to have quite a bit of str to reach it :P
so would af feet be better than what I have for ws?

You're taking a net loss in damage, would be better without any feet gear at that point.

No lol, COR AF Feet ( 1) is the best feet COR can get for anything, except maybe TP if you have Dusk Feet ( 1) or Setanta's Ledelsens.
ok >< I got confused

Also, Wooooodum/Aeyela is a well known COR~

His slug set:
ok so would the 10 agi from denali be better for Slug than the 5 agi and 5 str of Mirke? (im guessing no)

Mirke is better as long as you have a RATT 10 augment on there. Otherwise, Denali wins~

Keep in mind that Denali is only better because it has R.Attack+9 on it. 10 AGI alone isn't better than 5 STR and 5 AGI.

so would Relic body be better than Mirke (without ratt/racc augments)?

Mirke would win unless you have capped fSTR. I can't be bothered to do the math, but unless you're eating STR food, with full STR gear, and double STR etudes, you likely aren't hitting that cap on COR.

I had no idea it had STR on it. >.> Okay, yeah, I'll go ahead and say Denali > Relic body > Mirke without augments.
