I assume you're using the rose strap to replace usu feet? In which case it isn't just a 2% DA vs 3% Haste comparison. First of all usu feet have 2% haste on them, which would bring the difference down to 1% haste. Then you have the acc you need to figure in. Usu feet have 7acc, PCC has +5 over your Chiv chain, Sea Torque has ~+2 acc. So you lose ~9-12 acc, 7atk, and 2% DA vs. 1% Haste

If you brought that up on say... BG or if Konda was responding to you on KI they'd mention Marinara Pizza +1. It magically fixes anything and everything. Much like duct tape. I guess.

Don't forget this setup also.
In pure DD output I believe it was found to be the best, but I may be wrong here.

Yeah, neck,ring,back etc, was just putting stuff in there.
Xhit/haste/grip the important part here.

Well, that sets based on the assumtion that /WAR is the optimal subjob. It's not.
Optimal set would be something like...
Perfect Rindomaru | Rose Strap | --- | Black Tathlum
Ace's Helm | Ancient Torque | Brutal Earring | Wyvern Earring
Usukane Haramaki | Dusk Gloves +1 | Rajas Ring | Toreador's Ring
Cuchulain's Mantle | Velocious Belt | Byakko's Haidate | Usukane Sune-Ate
More Haste, ACC and ATT.
This is, of course, barring Amanomurakumo, Kurodachi and Futsuno Mitama.

Has there been any confirmed testing done with the Kurodachi? I'd love to have solid testing done on that to see how viable a 5hit is, or how good a 6hit it provides.
I'm not the biggest fan of full timing carbonara unless you have the acc to back it up.

AOT rate seems to be ~40%.
It kicks the ***out of all existing options. Besides Amano, I think.

So... any reason for me to pick up a hagun? Do we think we will be able to augment it with the ToM quests?

Eventually we will, I beleive. I doubt they're going to give it OAT, though. But who knows. This IS SE.

Have these tests just been on Colibri? I wonder how the lower dmg and no fTP bonus does on higher lvl mobs.

There's always fTP on the main hit. Also, AOT doesn't affect WS's, besides drastically increasing WS Frequency,

Yeah I was meaning it doesn't get the TP bonus of Hagun, and has lower base dmg. So if these tests are done on Colibri could it be a different story on an HNM? Or is the WS frequency of an OAT GKT just too big of a gap for Hagun's big WS numbers to make up?

Ragnarok.Blindphleb said: Have these tests just been on Colibri? I wonder how the lower dmg and no fTP bonus does on higher lvl mobs. I did math on it a while back assuming 50% proc rate and Kuro won easily. 40% proc rate reduces that margin, but not enough that Hagun will win if engaged fulltime. Hagun -> Kurodachi is comparable to Onimaru -> Hagun in terms of the increase to your DPS. Colibri or HNM doesn't matter, neither weapon has a stat on it that affects pDIF.
Also lolparse as "testing" data for determining what weapon beats what. Too many variables you can't control for.

So then this should be the 6hit build with the kurodachi?
6hit kurodachi
It seems the OAT rate is ~40% with the OAT weapons. Why is everyone so crazy about that? Sobo has about 50% double and 20% triple.
Also, I've read that while 5hit kurodachi is possible it sacrifices too much to achieve it.
5hit carbonara
5hit hachi hands

Sacrificing Haste basically makes it not worthwhile. If you're not making a 5-hit build it's really not worth the effort if you have to use Hachiman Kote, and even then it's not a huge increase since there's a lot of TP overflow occuring. The 6-hit Kuro is dead on, Hauby + Pole if you don't have Usukane Haramaki.
EDIT: Soboro is good when used appropriately... but the 40D kinda hurts as a main weapon. Also, TP overflow again.

EDIT: Soboro is good when used appropriately... but the 40D kinda hurts as a main weapon. Also, TP overflow again. Why does 40 dmg hurt Soboro, but 68 dmg doesn't hurt Kurodachi. Neither Gkt has anything that effects pdif right? You mentioned that on HNM or Colibri the outcome would be the same between Hagun and Kurodachi right?
Obviously a 28dmg difference is greater than a 7dmg difference. My question is at what point does base dmg become a concern.
I suppose we're getting away from the original topic, but I've been looking at BG and trying to weigh buying a hagun or not. It seems even those on BG aren't sure what the gtk tiers will be. I remember when the Rindomaru craze happened and everyone was excited about 5hit rindo, then it all calmed down and people went back to hagun.

Main reason people calmed down and almost no one uses Rindo is because of how difficult it is to get one worth using, let alone one that will beat a hagun.
Personally I dont like soboro at all yeah the tp gain is great and alot of ws spams, but you feed the mob way too much tp for using it to be worth it on just about anything you fight, imo.

Soboro has a high rate of TP overflow, which has a pretty hefty impact on WS frequency and thus your WS:TP split as well. What I stated previously wasn't fully accurate, if the split is the same then pDIF doesn't really matter. As it is Kuro's lower split will reduce its advantage slightly, but not to the point where it would lose outside of situations where the entirety of your DPS is from WS. The base damage just kind of hurts in general, lol. You're doing like half the damage per WS of Hagun at that point, but you're not quite WSing twice as much to compensate.

Why not make a 5 hit Kurodachi that sacrifices only 1% haste and doesn't require carbonara?

You can still buy a Hagun, because unless you have the manpower, you're not getting a Kuro most likely. And even then, the difference isn't as huge as some are letting on. I believe math on BG said it's about a 4% increase. While that's nice and all, I'm not getting one just due to lack of people.

Dont think thats right, wouldnt use dgloves+1 and speed belt with wyvern earring anymore I believe item comes pretty pointless you aquire hq hands and belt according to vegetto. Head 5%, hands 4%, waist 6%, legs 5% feet 2/3% would only be getting 2 or 3% haste from sj drg wouldnt be worth it im told. Soooo yeah neither is drg optimal sj either necessarily.

I have that build pretty much except 4%haste waist not 6%, use usu feet only atm 2% cos im lazy i guess, hauby+1 not usu body and finally I mostly tp in cerb+1 not cuch mantle.
I assume its still a 6 hit what you posted, same as mine is 6hit also cant see how you can call it pure win dd out put build though. If its not 6 hit with a sword strap its not gonna be best right? Im too tired for adding stp in my head i assume u swapped around my hauby+1 and usu feet for 1% more haste yet retain 6hit? Wouldnt it be better to sword strap too and change to usu feet? idk

Item set quote failed lol.
Hi, I was wanting to see what the sam group on FFXIAH thought about these two builds.
This one is your normal 6hit build
This one uses usu body and sword strap to lower your delay but stay in 6hit
Which one would be the better choice?
