whether or not the thread is mislabed the message is clear: I want to know whow other people are gearing.

knowledge is power... because I spend time properly making these gear set and lisening to fellow blm I can become stronger. That plus the fact that I have been playing this job for 3+ year means I have a ton of combat experience in this game.

Im just using this thread as a way to improve my performace to the point where only other high class blms can match it.. thus the name of the thread.

Best Nuking set:



Artemis when the Latent is at > +5 MAB, Uggy when Latent is active and Moon level is < +8 MAB. Valkyrie's Trews w/ +4 MAB, +5 might be possible, haven't seen any screenshots. Best nuking ring when Sorc isn't active is Galdr. When Ice Spikes aren't active, Vivid +1 (Or when using a non-Ice Nuke)

Anyone else think we're due for a nuking grip that isn't lvl 60? I'm getting awfully tired of 1 INT, and screw the NM for Vivid Strap/+1. Even something like elemental grips with MAB instead of Macc would be worthwhile...

i personally like using wise strap you get enough m-crit on af3 hect earring ect... to justify using it over 1 int imo.

Wat. More crit rate in others slots doesn't justify the use of another piece of Crit Rate. The only thing that could make Wise Strap better than Bugard is if the Crit Damage bonus on AF3+2 Gloves added an additional +7~10 MAB per crit. Casting Ice Spikes isn't hard though.

As soon you have the af 3 +2 gloves and the genesis locket, wise strap > INT +1 grip.
Of course it wont pwn the ossa grip in any way, but i wouldnt use it. Idk for you guys but i'm 78/80 on blm, and a very specific nuking grip like the ossa (1 element) is a waste of inventory space for me, especially with the new lev cap which coming in few months (thunder 5)

Thunder V still won't compete with the better Atma combo for Ice spells. It may have a higher base damage, but MM Beyond and Ultimate has a +30 MAB lead over MM Ultimate BH (or Lion w/e)

If you only play in abyssea, ya. But when ppl will start to do Voidwatch or anything outside abyssea there wont have many reason to only cast ice spells.

The +4 or +5 is about the augment on it, not the total mab.

So my brother pointed something out in the atmas earlier (wiki probably wrong)

Atma Of Ambition

"Refresh+:Minor(5/tick)
Fast Cast+:Minor(10%)Verification Needed
Movement Speed+:Major(12.5% Gear Speed) Will not stack with movement gear."


Atma of the Merciless Matriarch

Magic Accuracy+: Superior (+valueVerification Needed),
Fast Cast+: Superior, (7.5%),
(Same element magic as weather) Enmity-: Superior (+valueVerification Needed)


I notice the verification tags but what I'm wondering about is the fast cast, which description fits the amount?

edited for clarity
