So, I am guessing, it would be Adaman Hauberk, then like, Noct mail?
But, I don't have those, so I am wondering about, like, Perle vs Zahak's vs Hauby +1.
Help? D:

Ravager's Lorica
Go cheap and stick with Perle until December. There's no point in spending money right now.

Oh yeah, the in-thing is to slack off all the way to level cap now.

@Sheelay I don't want to go cheap and use inferior items though. >.>
WAR isn't my main concern, I just want it to be good enough to do damage. Hence the thread where I was asking what would be better, then I listed item, Ravager's Lorica wasn't one.
So, that wasn't useful.

Perle is actually a good body for RR since it gives Acc, slightly less DEX than a Hauby +1 and a 2% increase to Crit hit, which happens to be the WS's mod.
I have yet to see you give any sort of advise on any topic rather than simply trolling, Laffter.

If you post your current WS set at least it will make it easier for people to suggest on what to improve.
Depending on your overall WS build you may find yourself more comfortable with different items from someone else's set/

Okay?
I know perle is good for RR rush, it's what I use now, but my question was out of Zahak's, Perle, and Hauby +1, what is better?
I want to use what is the best that I can get.
I've given advice on BRD once I think.

I give advice, I just like to make fun of other people's advice first.

Also, with Agressor up, I use Viking helm

Zahak obviously. Cause y'know, 10 STR 10 DEX 3% crit > 8 STR 4DEX 2 Crit > 6 STR 6 DEX

I was unsure, because of the Att and Acc on Perle vs the lack on Zahak's, that and I never saw other WAR's use it much.

I'd go for Zahak's Mail. With Aggressor and the amount of accuracy (plus pizza, I assume), you won't be missing the hits and will have more STR to add to the mod.

Zahak's mail is your best choice.
Try get a Sea torque, Snow would do fine.
A fowling earring will probably do better than an assault earring. I would test out Perle legs for the extra Acc and DEX, Byakko's Haidate is still great for Raging Rush though.
If you got a bunch of friends who could help you get one it would improve boh your TP and WS builds

Pfft why RR when you can Vorpal Blade! Put that Fencer trait to good use!

I swapped from Zahak's to Grim Cuirass recently, but I'd say Zahak's is the second best possible body for Raging Rush. Though if you need more stp to keep your hit build, Askar would be a good free alternative.

There isn't a save all button you can macro for every situation regarding RR.
The general rule of thumb is that you should put enough ACC on your war to actually connect three hits and from there your pick of STR or DEX depending on race.
Otherwise;
Hi-def, Lo-Eva mobs: ATK/STR
Hi-eva mobs: ACC
Make a few macros for different situations, and don't think +2-5 acc won't matter, it often does and will.

For this what would you think would be better for grip, pole(+2% DA) or claymore(+3% crit Rate)? Or even other grip options.
Given that in abyssea WAR can use Atma which would give them anywhere between 20-35% DA rate w/o the grip. And also to add to the benefit of more Crit hits to stack with Atma of the razed ruins.

Good call Zorander, I didn't even think of that.
Askar is a goal of mine, but, I have to make some people do Nyzul for it :<
I have two RR macros, Higher Acc, for when I'm unbuffed, or high Evasion mobs, and lower acc, for buffs, or easy ***.

Laffer, assume you don't need it and your x-hit build is already set to what you'd need.

Better that than cookie cutter all the way!
Besides, how I play has nothing to do with the advice I give others. :3

that's not true!
he just advised stp above and beyond what he needed for a 6-hit
and then thought that crit strap beat out DA

your body will be highly dependent on a couple things
namely, whether you are in abyssea and have a high dex/acc atma up, like razed ruins
and whether aggressor is up or down
so a one body fits all decision is not a good thing

So, I am guessing, it would be Adaman Hauberk, then like, Noct mail?
But, I don't have those, so I am wondering about, like, Perle vs Zahak's vs Hauby +1.
