Up To Date Item Sets And Gearswap Scripts

I have been asked by a few guys on the forum to start collecting data to update the Dont fear the reaper guide as it is outdated compared to other job forums.

Please post any item sets in this thread and more importantly any gearswap scripts that are relevant and can be adapted

This thread is not for advice on gear, it is simply made to collect quick data to update the guide.

Do not post anything other then itemsets and scripts

Thanks

Amm Greaves maximum augment. -50% Damage Taken, good HP boost, 1105 Accuracy and capped equipment Haste. Use when your tank is dead and you're tanking. Accuracy and Haste let you get TP for Catastrophe.

Love those sets but wouldn't Pixie Hairpin +1 be a better option than the Lugra Cloak +1?

Theoretical 4-hit build.

ItemSet 344164

sets["Anguta TP"] = {
main="Anguta",
sub="Nepenthe Grip +1",
ammo="Ginsen",
head="Valorous Mask",
neck="Lissome Necklace",
ear1="Telos Earring",
ear2="Dedition Earring",

feet="Valorous Greaves"}

Ankou's Mantle has DEX+20 Acc/Att+20 Store TP+10
Store TP+88 from equipment, +103 if you go /SAM.

Not even theoretical. You could WS naked with that TP set /SAM, WS in +30 /notSAM. You're overshooting and making some bad trades.

WS in multiples of 10 because of extra tenthspoints on secondary hits. /SAM will put you at +22 with the grip alone, so your WS return is automatically 187 (175+12, Cross Reaper or double miss tolerant Entropy), meaning you only need 67 STP on all other gear (89 total) for 4-hit, so that set is super overkill and the first thing to go is that dedition earring. Put on a smidge more for WS to make +30, which you'll probably do by accident, and you get 200 and only need +86 total. Yeah, you'll probably blow past that value anyway, but it can still be the difference between Lissome and Sanctity necks, or keep Lissome and change Ankou to DA.

Dialing in for Cross Reaper is annoying. I can never decide whether to make it miss-tolerant or not, but multihit and a bevy of buffs should make up the difference. It was always just a probability thing, a 4-hit WS has that 18.5% chance of blowing one swing, CS you're just as likely to miss the first. I almost wonder if Gearswap could be clever enough to check post-WS TP and gear accordingly. Anyway, I guess Cross Reaper more or less simplifies things.

For a while I had a whole set of STP benchmarks for Greatsword, 27/17 for 480 delay 5-hit for example. I don't remember if those were before or after the stupid *** Rag buff midrange delay TP gain adjustment, but I could get the spreadsheet together again and do 501/513/528.

Just for now though, for 528 delay, 86/30 is probably the optimal /notSAM. /SAM might go for 82/40 (67/25 before trait), which seems totally doable to me.

Anguta is also a fun case. You only have to get past 1250 TP for Cross Reaper to be truly upward-scaling, so that maximum STP set might be useful as a post-Entropy (or other Darkness opener, but you want Aftermath up) set.

All that aside, SAM roll is FOTM, so being able to hit ~46 STP in TP set is probably the bigger ticket and the true 4-hit is a backup plan.

Dark Magic

ItemSet 344044

Absorbs

ItemSet 344045

WS

ItemSet 344018

Very high acc and WS damage augs

Just so you know Eschite Cuisses have 23 M.acc and 20 Dark magic skill, also most people probably won't take Abyssal earring so you can use Hirudinea earring and +3 Dark magic skill isn't much so you can go with with either Gwati or Dignitary. Pavor Gauntlets would probably be better for Absorbs but I am curious if Pixie hairpin and Archon rings effect Abs-Stat spells.

If anyone can make a start of the following gears sets for the dont fear the reaper guide it would be great, im at work atm so cant do this

Sets not to include main wep - weapons to be updated in main guide

High level( escha ruan / Jima valorus etc),
HQ (best of the best HQ BiS items)

TP Set
4 hit build sets
5 hit build sets
WS Set(s)
Dark Magic Set
Absorb set

MDT set

Very basic starting set for scythe users

ItemSet 344223

I would point to the Xaddi set for a starting set, because Delve is ezpz now (arguably easier than A-Skirm) and the extra accuracy augments are dirt cheap (120k for 15 acc) instead of random. You'll also most likely get a Yaoyotl helm, which is BIS until you get into T2+ Escha gear.

sorry to ask a very basic question...
what's the aug to have for moonshate earring for the ws sets?

Please refer to the Don't fear the reaper guide. This thread is for item sets only

TP Bonus for moonshade.

Since the earring is in most ws builds, was it that hard to answer his question?

I want to stay on topic is all. Page one of the guide explains this information

Posting an additional Dread Spikes build for extra options.

ItemSet 344313

All the Eschite pieces can be augmented with HP+80 PDT-4%. Belt Slot left open because that's more personal preference since I use haste for recast reduction over HP+.

That is dumb as ***given that anyone inquiring about DRK will check that thread, realize it's out of date, and then go to the thread that says "UP TO DATE SETS" in the title.

It also took me all of four words to respond to him. While your unhelpful post took two sentences.

Take a page from the nin forums. We have like 2 threads with convos going on about most of the same stuff and it works pretty well.

thanks both Gippall and Bloodlusty for helping.
I can't deny that I was lazy to search. So bloodlusty was right that i should have spent some time on it.

Here are my very lazy DRK Anguta sets.

ItemSet 344317

Augs:
Head: DA3 + some acc/att
Body: STP 5 + acc/att
hands: STP 6 + some acc (you should probably use emicho here for more acc)
legs: DA5 MAB2 >_>
feet: STP 5 or 6 (I'll come edit this when I get a chance to look) + acc/att
back: 20 dex or str 20 acc/att 10 DA

Crossreaper set:

ItemSet 344318

Gear augs are WSD 4-5 + some stat and acc/att
cape is 10 WSD 20 STR 20 acc/att

As master DRK my TP set is somewhere in the 1000-1050 acc range, which is enough to cap acc on reisen T1s with just sushi and vorseals (I think I have 4 Acc++ vorseals).

With SAM sub my WS set returns 198 TP and this gives me 271 a swing putting just over 1k after a WS and 3 hits. After a bunch of corse my WSavg was hovering around 20k or so. I didn't calculate any of this I just went out and hit stuff to figure it out because I'm the laziest DRK.

Resolution copies fTP for it's hit, Fotia gorget + belt are the absolute BIS by a huge margin.

https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Resolution

1000TP Resolution = 0.71875 base fTP
2000TP Resolution = 1.5
3000TP Resolution = 2.25

Going from 1000TP to 1250TP (moonshade) is 0.914 fTP .
1250TP with Fotia Belt + Gorget is 1.114 or a 21.8% boost along with +20 accuracy.

There is nothing out there that even approach's that.

Entropy experiences similiar growth, in fact all the "fTP Transfer" weapon skills experience this growth.

As for duplus, that is no longer absolute best for a total build, since you can't change your grip during WS. The haste grip would usually be better when combined with Kentarch +1 belt.

is argosy NQ worth getting? I know the HQ set is good (still BiS?) for quite a bit, but the NQ gives me mixed feelings.

If anyone has BiS sets for drk please share those so people like me know what to aim for longterm. I know most posted here a very good, but nothings very concretely said (some have valosoru, others odys, other argosy, and lastly sulv for some.... not exactly stellar). I am a new drk not wanting to noob it up to much :D

I have both argosy and carmine head pieces at NQ because I'm a scrub that has no money and no reisenjima gear yet.

Argosy head NQ has 1 more accuracy than Carmine head NQ with the best accuracy augments on both. So I switched my carmine hat to the fastcast augment because that store TP and double attack on Argosy makes it a better TP piece than carmine head. I assume the HQ versions would be similar, unless you have more than one HQ carmine piece (which then would be freakin amazing accuracy)

But the set as a whole? Not sure. None of the others have good accuracy augments. Carmine's better on that front. And for non-accuracy content, valorous or odyssean would probably beat it out.

It is very difficult to declare what is BiS with augment gear being so powerful. (and so wildly random) This was one of the same issues we had making BiS slots when skirmish gear was top tier.

Every piece of gear you get will be situational, do you need this piece in your acc build, do you need this piece in your xhit build, do you need this piece in your str mod ws set, do you need this in your vit mod ws set and so on.

The best and most important piece of information any one can give you is cap your haste, get your acc for the content you are fighting and get the sTP you need for xhit.

Hi everyone; here is my LUA with updated sets based on my current gear. Please let me know if there are any obvious changes I need to make; but it is pretty dialed in for Anguta and my specific augments. Also everything is based on SAM sub.

http://pastebin.com/2XKEUUA9

Apoc sets updated, and argosy +1 added.

So what kind of valorous augs are you going for exactly on each piece? Also does Sulevia's +1 head beat out Valorous head?

Against my better judgement, because I abhor talking about gearsets when it comes to random augment gear, I will post a new Rag set I was up til about 3 a.m. working on. The tp phase pans out and still gives 4 hit even after my torc. This is highly dependent on how much sTP you use in your single hit ws, I only have +17 sTP in torc. (edited, didn't count grip in ws set, credit goes to azagarth for spotting it)

36% double attk, 2% triple attack, 2% quad attack.

ItemSet 346615

mask = Attk+21, sTP+6, AGI+5, Acc+15
body = Accuracy+26, sTP+6, MND+6, Attk+9
legs = Accuracy+27, sTP+8, Attk+15
feet = Accuracy+22, sTP+6, Attk+14
back = STR+30, Acc/attk+20, D.A.+10

This tp phase gives me 1104 acc with zero buffs, no ionis, no ja, no food, zero buffs.
After torc and 4 hits, I end up with 1016% tp without counting regain from valorous mask.
I highly doubt anyone will ever seen the same buffs of another person.


Working on new mid/high acc sets for rag as well as apoc and dacnomania low/mid/high sets, I will post them when I have them done.

Major Update to DRK Gearswap.

Sets for Apoc, Anguta, and Greatsword have been added.

Change the Great Sword at the top for w/e you have.

Apoc/Great Sword sets have been revised to reflect new gear.

New Ambu gear has been added.

Resist sets have been updated for drain, absorbs, sleeps, etc.

WS mode now includes a Fotia function (If you want to test it on WS that normally do not use Fotia)

http://pastebin.com/2XKEUUA9

I am also going to be developing sets for cor stp roll and /war for those of you lucky enough to bring DRK to really hard *** ^^.

(Anguta sets do still need to be re-mathed and updated, but they are all 4 hit sets)

I am thinking best "general" tp set for Rag (Non-100m+ pieces) for things under T3? TP set needs 57 stp to attain a 5-hit after a ws with 20stp (14-19stp on ws means you need 58 stp in tp set). Has 49 stp not counting augs, at which point you need to attain 8 stp through augs (9 if less than 20 stp on during ws). This can be easily attained through the 3 items we have to augment, technically in 1 aug on valo gear with fern stones. Though 8 stp AND high acc on 1 piece of gear will prove to be very rare, as in im 2000+ fern stones on feet and have yet to see 8 stp with more than 10 acc haha.

ItemSet 347333

if you end up overshooting on STP augs (say you get something like 7stp+6stp on items, leaving you with 4 stp extra) Then the changes to remove would be in order for best dps increase (multi-attack):

1. Lissome <> Ganeshas
2. Telos <> brutal (if acc allows)
3. Ginsen <> seething+1

There can be other small changes too, augmenst make it very difficult to say, but this is a very good general rule.

Key is you want to make sure both your ws and tp set line up. I have been seeing many drks as of late ignoring this. While true that Reso make this less important, the power of SC dmg is very nice too and I cringe when i see a melee miss a sc because they are at 99% tp. Drk can make some very nice 3-step+ sc for double lights, and if you can then that will probably always be better than strait reso spam.

What I have not yet started to perfect is a HIGH ACC set. I am actually struggling with that set alot atm. If the community would like to input that would be great. It needs to be T3+ (preferably reis HElms) adequate. My goal is 5 hit (20/57) with 1300 acc (still no 100m+ gear).
