Ovni can be solo'd by several jobs, just bring someone to proc blue !! and TH.

instead of sacrificing the acc on the pants you could also go fo bestia breeches may take a few trophies but they have dex on them and a possible 4 haste and acc augments.

another question, are there any other belts i could use that are relatively easy to get to help boost my haste

Ovni is easy, I do it on MNK all the time. What you want is /nin and a decent evasion/ hp regen.
RR + mounted champion + Cloak and dagger atma

Well you have 3 choices: Bullwhip Belt, Velocious/Speed Belt, or Goading Belt. I'd say Bullwhip Belt is the easiest one to get. No key items needed, nm repops fast. Best chance is to get a mnk with staff and club skilled, a whm and a thf, and claim during blunt. That being said, mine dropped without TH or blue !!.

this..
mnk and rdm and ovni is easy. what you could also do is post your current TP set and people can pick away and try give you simple advise..
for example.. do you have swift belt? dusk gloves? etc

Well if you want to be 100% covered with blunt ws to trigger blue, get a whm with Hexa Strike. :D
But yeah, mnk and rdm can duo Ovni np at all.

i have dusk in storage too, my aim (which im finding incredibly difficult for my new player stature) was:
-ace's hose
-bullwhip
-timarli dastanas or ace's mufflers
-or dusk gloves + blitz ring
now that i know about the breeches from trophy trade ins, im gunna attempt a 4% haste on one of them to replace ace's hose.
take note i said previously i only have sam and drg, soloing isnt entirely an option :(. thanks again for advice
ps: the weapon is due to me working on drakesbane still. and i have capped accuracy, -points doesnt bother me

There are no other haste belts you can get solo which are better than swift belt.

Don't even need /NIN>_>; I got mine+friends by just using MNK/WAR Counterstance tank it with RR+GH+SS He's not that hard at all even with no Defense as long as boost is dispelled(Even sometimes without it dispelled) it's a total joke to fight

That's my current TP set. I'm working on that lance from Empousa soon, hopefully to tide me off until Baby Blobdingnabs are gathered.
Ovni is easy, but stingy in my case. 1/7 with 4 blue!! procs.
Went 1/1 on Ace's Hose, but wasn't there for much of the fight, due to DCing before we started. I'd say being cautious is a good idea though.

Not really. I don't have the means to make up the haste loss. As of now, I'm at a 6-hit with capped haste. Askar is useless at this point.

Using lancer +1 boots and askar you would loose 1% haste and gain 2% DA and 12att 5str, you think 1% haste will keep up with that?

Considering my use of Red Curry Buns and Atmas? Yeah, for the most part I do. Not saying there aren't exceptions, but I'm not one to carry around multiple gear sets for relatively little gain for rare situations.

On a random note, this is the current "ideal" DRG 5hit TP set with OaT Polearm imo:
25% Haste, 5 hit, 3x AF3+2 for set bonus.

My Ideal OAT Polearm Set
VV/RR/Scorpion Queen Atma's.
OAT nature severely reduces AoA damage increase. And honestly, outside of GH, I'm not sure what else would be used in the third slot.
I suppose if you have to keep Body+2 on for your wyvern to keep food effects on though...

Hastes value increases while DA's decreases. Even though it's not a full chunk of haste, I'm almost positive it wins out.
I could be wrong though.

I was thinking about this earlier... I remember seeing an old pic about haste vs DA where haste was curved up, the more haste is added, whereas DA was a straight constant line, but it was a constant increase though. It just fails when it comes to it vs haste I believe.
