Recently with Neo Nyzul stuff(Thaumas Set etc)? Because Vere MNKs are bad ***. I've been toasted by some no matter what I subbed. The DoT combined with ODD is just insane like I stated in a previous post.
Thaumas set just brings out more bad-assery when it comes to a good Vere MNK.
Bit off topic-
What is going to make you cringe is the 99 Vere I went against was absolute ***, a waste of heavy metal plates, and cost people an unnecessary amount of drama.

It's not even a contest anymore, if he couldn't beat me then he can't now, especially since he sold his account and its not on Fenrir anymore.

Was wondering where he went, been gone 3 months. I guess it's still a trend to get a relic/mythic/empy and max it out and quit.
Selling it seemed a bit drastic unless he had a high buyer.

Okay I can see why he did that then. Could be a payment on a house/car or even pay for tuition. What I want to know is who would pay that much for a "dying" game. When I say dying I mean that things are slowing down and there is no sign of another expansion besides maor VW/Legion.

So I was wondering about Valkyrie Sabatons versus Phorcys for a Ragnarok drk. Assuming situations where Acc/Atk are capped so neither the Accuracy on Phorcys nor the Attack on Valkyie matter, would the combined 3% Crit rate and 3% Crit damage beat out 3% DA? I know with 95 Ragnarok I have a little below 50% crit rate in VW (using the crit drink for haste because mages suck)

3da > 3crit rate/damage, its close though.

As I don't want to read through the past 28 pages on this thread, this might be something that has already been answered:
Bale +2 or Whirlwind dirs for legs on Resolution set?
By Azmodan 2012-06-03 23:09:28
If Ragnarok and Phorcey's Mitts I'd say Whirlwind Dirs, you don't lose the 15ATK from +2 and acc made up from the relic, and gain an additional +3% DA which couldn't hurt.
That's just how I see it at least, DRK doesn't really take too big of a hit from the 15ATK cause it just sort of pisses ATK all over the floor.

Whirlwind if everything's capped, otherwise Bale +2 iirc. Uncapped hitrate obviously favors Bale.

What's the math between OATs GSWD vs. +10% WS damage?

40% OAT when you have 20% base DA is diminished in two ways. First, DA limits OAT's ability to proc since DA takes priority over OAT. As such, OAT is now only able to proc on the remaining 80% of your attack rounds. You can kind of think of it as resulting in 40*(1-0.2)=32% OAT, though it's not functionally accurate. You then also consider that its impact on your total hits/round is reduced both by the reduction in opportunities to proc and the increase in base hits/round. If we calculated hits/round in the order of initial hit, DA, and OAT, the gains from OAT with 20% DA would be (1+1*0.2+1*0.8*0.4)/(1+1*0.2)=1.266667=26.667%.
Ok so nearly done with my OAT. but after reading this wondering if i should swap out Pole Grip and/or Calmecac? Dont have Neo-Nyzul gear yet.

Edit on TP+Resolution Not even close. TP bonus actually beats WSD if you aren't pumping 300tp too often, but neither are in the same league as OAT.
It's Scythes that you encounter Entropy's pathetic fTP scaling resulting in WSD winning out.
100 TP bonus on Belt/Gorget Reso is 13.6%, while Entropy is only 9.8% (and 0% at 300tp).

Been using this set but for some reason the result aren't very desirable last night against Ig-Alima. Was /war with food, I wasn't sure why I kept getting only 1 roll (Tactician) and no Chaos but still:
Averaged like 1600 on him for some odd reason (expected 2k+). All 5 fights dragged over 5 mins so not full buff for the duration of the fight.
Starting to think I might not have long enough castingdelay on my WS (using spellcast) and that the body takes a while to register, just my guess.
Any thoughts? Thank you.

What kind of food? did you always have agressor or DE up?
I can't guarantee you that you'r acc capped with that set.

RBC and Agressor up, SE first min, then DE after Agressor wore.
I used to do ace's mail + avant hands +1, however, that was when I was using OAT GS, so the loss of accuracy on those 2 pieces should be made up by Ragnarok. I do agree that perhaps the accuracy wasn't capped. Still think it is gear not register and I probably ended up WSing in TP set.
Highest was like 3.2k I think, and that's way below what I used to do on him. Usually during SE up I be spamming 4k one.

3.2k is'nt bad on Ig alima without chaos roll, next time you should try to TP in as much acc as you ws in, parse yourself and see if you'r capped on acc, just to make sure

Any thoughts? Thank you. I think Spellcast will respect the order you list a set in as long as you're not pulling pieces from a base set, so as long as you don't have the body last on the set this shouldn't be happening. If you do have the body last, like if you just punched it in after you got it, that's definitely a possibility if you have more than 10 or so pieces in that set. If you use a baseset it will (or at least used to) waste time processing duplicate swaps, so if you have a Soil/Soil set that has a lot of the same items as your regular Multihit WS set but still lists it as a base set you could definitely run into that.
I'm not sure what the default pre-WS delay is, but it wouldn't hurt to add about 0.05-0.075 seconds to it.

Whats your base TP body? Phorcys body alone won't make a 25% difference in damage, esp on a 5hit WS.

Adaberk stp 5 DA 1 :/
I am thinking it is probably either an accuracy issue, or the fact that I for some reason didn't get chaos roll for all 5 fights.
Gears not swapping might be that it didn't register at all due to lag, tho I did see gear change /echo every time I WS and see the blink.
Not really sure what's the issue really... I am hoping it was due to missing chaos roll.

Quote: If you use a baseset it will (or at least used to) waste time processing duplicate swaps, so if you have a Soil/Soil set that has a lot of the same items as your regular Multihit WS set but still lists it as a base set you could definitely run into that. That's very old, if it actually did that. The entire set is built and then it only sends equip commands for the pieces that need to be swapped in, not anything currently equipped or overwritten from baseset.
Quote: I'm not sure what the default pre-WS delay is, but it wouldn't hurt to add about 0.05-0.075 seconds to it. Really easy to figure out if you actually need to do this or not with some /ra testing.

/sam is greater then /war. In the fastest zergs you'll be capped on attack the entire time making berzerk worthless. You shoudl also have fighters roll which lowers the DA value from /war. Add that to sekka, med and hasso if the fight last longer then 3min and /sam is a clear winner. Capped on attack really? someone didnt see the 1400+ attk yet

I assume he meant capped attack vs monster defense ratio. There's a threshhold that increasing your attack gives severely diminished returns.

Simple question... What are the top GS for resolution out of the magian trials line? I have calad for myself but I am looking for something that will help the wife out. I don't really want to do another calad (unless I really need to) and I would do a ragnarok for myself before I would waste one on her. (Fuck I am a dick!)
Also, of you that have played with it.. What do your /ws builds look like?
Some of the GS I was considering....
Fulgurante:
DMG:56 Delay 480
Dmg +48 Occ. Atk. Twice
Tenebreuse:
Dmg: 123 Delay 444
Str+11 Atk+26
Kauriraris:
/WS damage +10 or TP bonus option...
I'm not a GS drk by nature so I am asking before I really get into something I don't wanna fuck with later.
Thanks for any constructive input. ^^
