Archon Cape looks quite interesting, might replace umbra if it annuls more than say 300 and if it procs an ok amount

Agreed..so much situational crap as if we didnt have limited spots to begin with..

WOULD LOVE a nice copy of a BLM spellcast that has the +1 and +2 gears and the rules for the twilight cape and zodiac rings obis already written in if anyone has a good one

Plug in your gear and it'll be good to go. Make sure you have BLMAFPants variable set to 1, I cheated and just tagged the ring in there.

Yeah, I remade the one I was originally using (Aikar's) because I'd added so much and taken so much out, it was just a mess.

EDIT: I'll probably be around for a couple more hours, anything past that and I can't guarantee though =P

Unless I'm overlooking things, we're still stuck with Bugard +1. And a lot of this gear is nice, but there's still better options out there.

For instance, have a curing set lock in Surya's and then have a Repose/Divine set to lock in Apollo's.

if i'm not mistaken there was a grip with regen/latent: refresh. i personally don't like regen stuff cause i don't use spellcast and i hate having to proc my sorc ring everytime i nuke.

At this point in the game there is little to no use for Elemental Skill. Unless you're an Abyssea burned BLM. Lol.

Grip with more INT or MAB: (Yes, please.)

I went around that by making a different set of variables and naming the spells (for my WHM one at least).

In your variables, add:
<var name="DMGLightStaff">Apollo's Staff</var> <!--Staff used for light based "nukes" -->

Then I made another set (though I already had it >_> so I just put it in there)

<set name="Nuke">
<main>$DMGLightStaff</main>
</set>


Then in the rules, I tagged:
<if Spell="Holy*|Banish*">
<equip when="midcast" set="Nuke" />
</if>



When I stop being lazy with my BLM staves, I'll need a whole lot more variables and rules, so it'll get updated piece by piece. If you needed any specific help beforehand though, I'll gladly do what I can =)

EDIT: Alternatively, Xenophire's solution may be faster XD

Doesnt Hitetsu's Spellcast have a set for Devine?, I also use Hitetsu's :D.
Cant remember off the top of my head if it was in it though.
If it doesnt im sure Hitetsu could just add that in for you, just have to put your apollo's in that set instead and Surya in your cure set

edit: Hitetsu to fast, and much better explanation :D

At this point, however I DID say every strap was situational :O and we have NO idea what SE has in store for us :)

And I soloed BLM to 75 like 6 years ago *gogo pets, nothing makes me rage more then an abyssea burned blm gimp -.-;

I myself would like to know the results of bugard +1 vs Wise (thats magic crit hit i believe)

Or the vivid +1 which is int+1 and enhances fast cast ~

@ Hit - thanks I WILL be asking for much help I am sure throughout the day because as spell cast goes, I keep breaking them , idk my rules get buggered up or whatever :P

Oh wait, there's something I forgot in that spellcast XD It uses an includes file, you can get the whole set (spellcast + include) here~ Make sure you copy the "Includes" folder to: Windower/Plugins/Spellcast folder.

It should contain a file called moon.xml, which is needed to work out Artemis' Medal moon phases
