Two quick RNG related questions:
1)Is Scout's Jerkin worth upgrading to +2? I already have +2 Relic Feet/Hands/Hat(Trial Finished) already
2)Is the TP Bonus gun worth making until Empy/Relic gun?
Thank you :)

1. not really. i think helel mathed it out a while ago and even the unknown attack boost from af3+2 is better to end shot with.
2. tp bonus is a billionjillion weaponskills right? i wouldnt waste the time, empy gun is super easy to do.

on BST could i justify using tyrant ring/goading belt over eponas ring/twilight belt if it brings me up a tier for x-hit build? would be 12 hit with 276 delay axes. 10 hit after ws if land all hits. 26% haste 34 store tp 14% double attack
this also has to do with me being lazy. i dont have eponas ring and i dropped twilight belt awhile ago couldnt use it for my jobs

While muling, I noticed I had 15 Coins of Advancement sitting there, which is half the coins needed for the WoE h2h weapon. My question is which weapon + WS would be the better combination:
Level 90 Revenant Fists +2 with Victory Smite
or
Level 99 STR/ATK Magian weapon with Shijin Spiral?
I've been using the Magian weapon for some time now, but with only 3 merit WS's available, and having half the Coins needed already for WoE, I am wondering if the WoE weapon would perform better and thus, free a WS slot.
I am not making Vere, getting my Ukon to 99 is enough for me. Basically, I am trying to find out which of these two weapons is better overall damage-wise in VW/Ein/Neo-Limbus etc.
So, math-heads, which one wins?
EDIT: Spelling.

forgive me if this has been asked here or elsewhere: does anyone know what reward III on bst relic body +2 does? I started to read through the lolakazam post linked on BG and might have skimmed over it.

For Rudra's I'm working on Hecatomb Subligar +1 atm but until I get them I'm just using THF AF3+2 pants for the DEX. Would losing 2 DEX for 18 attack be worth it on the Tumbler Trunks for now?

Silly spellcast question:
For items with long names like Blood finger gauntlets, do I have to write the full name or the abbreviation? Or it doesn't even matter?

Shouldn't matter unless you were using gearcollector, which needs abbreviations where applied.

The name needs to be how it is in your inventory list, iirc No, spellcast doesn't care. Either way is fine. It's gear collector that's picky. Gear Collector requires the abbreviated names

Hey, sorry to repost but I still haven't found an answer to this yet.
How do you know if your attack is capped or not?
Please excuse this noob question but I haven't been around as long as most of you. I try to do as much research as I can when it comes to playing games and I've seen a lot of posts like this:
Quote: Assuming capped attack... Quote: If your attack is capped, use this...
And I'm thinking to myself, "how do I know if my attack is capped?"
I've been trying to build WS sets for my jobs and I sometimes I don't know whether I'm macroing in DOWNgrades instead of upgrades for my weaponskills.
I have some gear that has +str on it and other gear that has +attack on it and I don't know which would be better for a weapon skill like Victory Smite. Obviously the +str gear is better when my attack is capped, but I have no clue when that is.
Thank you for your time

And for Peldin if you understand FFXI math, maybe there are simplier explanations, not sure.

Do relic weapons drop without TE? And not from job specific mobs? When I farmed my Great Sword base weapon in Bastok I did so w/o TE and I could be mistaken, after all it was very long ago but I believe one relic weapon did drop and it was not Great Sword. (I ended up getting Great Sword that same run but someone was nice enough to respond to my shout in zone and invite me for the lot on it)
Sorry I can't be more specific or reassuring, I wouldn't blame you if you held out for more concrete info since Dyna runs are money. Best of luck all the same ^^b

For a MDT set with already capped MDT would Mujin or Ethereal be better in an ear slot?
