I know that the general population would know this but..

Capped staff skill + 5 staff merits + Hakke Hachimaki (or if u have Temperance Torque + 2 staff merits + Hakke Hachimaki) gives a NIN sunburst /war. That makes nin more usefully than war being able to do 11/13 red !! WS.

Happy red !! proc'ing^^

WAR/NIN (WAR/SAM easier but then lose dagger procs) with Great Katana merits and torque gets Tachi: Jinpu too so WAR has 11 aswell. None of them are really more useful than the other for red proc.

Yeah but for now using merits is ok as they aren't missed merits^^ I only posted this because I duo/solo alot and being able to proc sunburst w/o whm/blm/rdm accidently getting killed while Tp'ing is a big help.

Ah I forgot about the bamboo stick war calls a GKT.^^

Kannagi90 NIN FTW though :p

You do realize war/nin with the right merits and gear can do 12/13 procs right? Can do jinpu and ei

Ukon WAR would like a word with you.


But it's actually pretty nice NIN can get /sunburst. I've been able to goof around and go DRK making up GS and Scythe. I honestly can't remember the last time I came DRK to an event.

How is that? I been looking and ei is 175 skill. Ninja 45 cap is 138. with 8 merits thats 154. Only 12 more skill in gear out in game atm. That means 166 is WARs max katana. still 9 skill short. Am I missing something?

Whoops got a little ahead of myself was looking at the 49 cap. Also there is 17 in gear so only falling 4 short so next lvl cap increase will be good to go

I'm pretty sure you need 7 merits + Hakke.

Skill cap calculator

At 45, warrior has 132 staff skill. 132+10+5=147 (five merits). 132+14+5=151 (seven merits). Did you forget to mention a gear piece for five merits? I'm living proof that you need seven with just Hakke, but this way was easier.

I think you'll find it to be 13/13 looking that koki and ei are 175 skill^^

Yeah except nin is A- kat and C- gkt so only 139 base skill at 49. Though more skill gear might be out by then and it is close

To me its totally worth meriting, I 2box alot with my mule having everything but GS and Scythe Procs is nice, granted GS and Scythe clues seem to like to show up more than youd like <.<

SE needs to give us an Event GS and Scythe D:

Actually yeah you are right. I'm at work, bored and not actually logged onto the game right now. I just know that I'm able to do sunburst and wanted to let other NIN out there know it is possible.

head + 7 merits
head + torque + 3 merits

Sorry about the miss information.

Also I know alot of people don't have pitchfork which makes it harder for nin to get raiden... I mean I don't think they did it last year or the year before....

Not having a pitchfork is really pissing me off. As with the OP I lowman a lot, usually triboxing a Whm and Blm. I like subbing thief on my blm since my whm doesn't have /thf so that forced me to sunburst on my Whm.

One bad thing about having 151 staff skill is not being able to hit a lot of Heroes NM's. I've started having to put out a lot of cash for icarus wings.

I generally duo(really trio) whm or blm / nin / 2nd account thf.. Conspirator is golden^^ so are temp item drinks^^ Also stack ur +acc gear. You don't TP as fast but you are more accurate.

I actually have my wife to thank for my pickfork+1. I hate doing events but she loves it.^^ SO grateful now. was complaining it was a waste of space b4^^

I hope you don't mind a little derailment but from the way everyone here has been talking I'd appreciate your input.

What do you guys use for tp and why? I'm torn between af1+ocelot and full empyrean. I noticed that when eating red curry buns I had acc problems against heroes NM's with just af1+ocelot. I needed full empyrean to get back near the accuracy cap. But the idea that af1 gives me almost a 10% decrease in delay keeps bugging me.

In those cases I highly recommend using sea daughter on whm. You should normally have at least 1 atma to spare with a nin tnk and it's useful if you feel like doing blue procs.

I'd rather use VV... The slow on SD sucks.

In terms of sunburst (unless you're solo) likliness is you're going to be with a whm regardless and -should- be able to do that trigger anyway.

Happy red !! proc'ing^^
Hmm that is very nice to know
I don't think it's worth the merits though unless you have extra space.

Until next update WAR could technically use Ei D:
so I imagine NIN and WAR would be proccing monsters
