You mean Luzaf's/Dark Ring, because King Behemoth is the jerkyiest jerkface that ever jerkfaced.

I think you can get around 350 Skill in Abyssea. Just stack Regen atmas and you'll be set.

I got up to 357 (for Last Stand) on crabs in Aby-Grauberg. Like Magicstick said, regen atmas will keep you set. :)

This is probably the best idea. Awilda's gun, ionis, possibly food&gear that enhance skillups, should be cake.

Not a huge difference, but also sub RNG (if you have it lvl 30+) for Barrage and the extra bullets fired / chance for skill-ups every 5 minutes.

Don't forget to use trust Chocobo!! makes a noticeable difference, much more noticeable than food in my experience.

Power for WF and Leaden will now depend on ilvl; also Leaden getting a huge boost: increased macc, 100% agi mod and ftp scaling increased. It's gonna be pretty awesome with a DP.

The ftp thing applies the same way to Last Stand too.

edit: if they haven't changed anything else this should be the new Leaden formula

{[2* (AGI-enemyINT)] + fTP* [119 + (.85*AGI)]}* {MAB}* {bonuses}

I'm excited.

Now if I could just find Alex for sale at all. I've been reduced to only what I can farm because I can barely even -find- it in bazaars, and when I do the cost is 150%+ of what it was six weeks ago.

There must be a few people on Bismarck with more money than sense driving up prices. =\

Wonder if this will make better spaming wildfire than last stand. Even for rangers, with adjust in tp modifier, wildfire should generate less enmity than last stand, so, reducing a bit the gap between anni rng and non relic ranged players.

Only if WF avg 5~6k and spike 7~8k in delve1 like Last stand! But even then leaden salute with DP probably gonna be way stronger than WF unless the NM resists dark dmg.

Even without DP leaden salute is still 100% AGI instead of 60%.....and TP bonus. I think leaden is meant to be magical DD WS and WF be low enmity one.

The point was having a useful open for all guns ws with low enmity, could ease a bit the relic rng requirement some people like to do. At least can make easier to manage enmity without giving up too much dmg, if wildfire gets a good boost.

Wildfire is unchanged other than getting the ilvl bonus. It still remains a viable ws because of its very low enmity generation(think of rangers parties, you can't go LastStand). Not for rangers though as it just won't put out the numbers Coronach can as you can buff physical more easily.

DP Leaden is gonna be ***. But even without DP all three main ws for cor are good options: Leaden for magical damage, WF for low enmity situations, LS for physical.

I always last stand in ranger pt though, ever since I finish /DRG and built a low enmity WS set enmity is rarely an issue....besides moving and jumping around lowers DPS.

Hey all, just wondering, in the equipment guide it seems there's different main weapons for various sets, like ranged acc., WS, and QD - My question is how am I supposed to get TP for a WS if I keep changing my dagger to a chat. staff, etc? Is it best just to fulltime sabebus/vanir?

Of course you don't change your main weapon. The difference is just there to show what to chose in case that specific thing is your primary focus.

Vanir is most definetely the best all-around main weapon at the moment.

Corsair is a very versatile job and you need to learn to throw the right piece of gear on for a give situation.

That said, if you have a Vanir Knife, it's going to be your best bet the vast majority of the time.

Edit: beaten.

In melee TP situation R15 Sabebus is better than Vanir though, unless next WS update makes magical WS worth using over last stand.
