I am getting right along at building my BRD.

With that said I already now have double marches, and eventually I will have haste.

Granted the marches will be gimpy at first, but...

With double marches and haste. What gear do we shave? suppanimimi? alternates for slots that can be replaced?

This set looks promising:



High dex for a good outside set? I think lower level mobs, push lots of crits, less need for accuracy.

And then this set for higher evasion mobs:


and then /drg yea I know:


Need 100mp merits obviously.

Thoughts? Flames? Suggestions?

Double march + haste along with a 26% haste set, as far as I am aware caps delay.

So the need for actual dual wield gear becomes less appealing due to TP loss.

So essentially the next best thing that I am aware of is crits and multi-attacks to increase damage any further.

Unless I am mistaken.

I have no idea how this is a misleading post. If you look at where it's posted it makes a lot of sense really.

In the ninja forum? It's been a long day so I might not comprehend what is going on here.

So... any ideas? Off base? I intend to try and get the empy harp eventually too for a situational third buff.

But then no one would look at it!

I can't change it and it doesn't take long to figure out the premise...

So can we talk about the subject?

You still need 10-12 (I don't remember exactly) DW unless you are using Marcato, in which case you need none.

I could see nin/dnc(war maybe?) + brd/whm being a pretty badass duo-box honestly...

Another option you might want to consider is swapping out a March for a Minuet. In all honestly, I don't know much about Ninjas; however, I've been dual boxing my friend's BRD for our Ninja for a while now and we've seen better results from him receiving double Minuet (especially inside of Abyssea). The option might not be to switch out haste and dual wield gear, but change the BRD songs.

That is good to keep in mind Darklink, I am just trying to also feel out everything a brd mule has to offer me. I also have him WHM90 and can go all the way to 95 so far.

I am just trying to understand my options, even trying to know what benefits thf can get from it.

I am also interested in knowing if having a perma-brd, ninja has any additional subjob options unlocked that are not very well considered in a stand alone scenario. Case in point was the /drg idea.

I also like the idea of being able to /drk more now.

Also looking at making this brd pretty pimp too so gear suggestions are welcome. I realize that there is a brd forum, and I have been studying. Just opening that invitation.

This info can be great for actual duo's too, so can we not get too hung up on why my mule is becoming a brd?

I always though "why not have a BRD mule" so this seems like a decent idea.You still have cure 4,and na spells,bar spells and that all important phat haste + BRD buffs.Sure the mp pool is a bit more limited but at least you can ballad yourself.

Brd/Whm - 2 minuets and and Whm haste, with good attack food works well for nin when your having fun dual boxing a bard. -or- A minuet and a march.

Life isn't the same when you don't have Chocobo Miz applied getting around.
