...let's not even delve into hybrid weaponskills.... ;)
Did a small sample test of my own, I just have a hard time believing that MAB overtakes WSD that easily. I mean, it will, but takes a lot.
ItemSet 363219 Gastra = R15 Herc Head = 42 MAB (+32 aug) Herc Body = 38 MAB, 3 WSD (DM aug) Herc Legs = 39 MAB (DM aug) Herc Feet = 44 MAB (+34 aug) Cape = 30 AGI, 20 Mattk/Macc, 10 WSD AGI = 104 + 182 ItemSet 363218 Gastra = R15 Herc Body = 38 MAB, 3 WSD (DM aug) Herc Feet = 44 MAB (+34 aug) Cape = 30 AGI, 20 Mattk/Macc, 10 WSD AGI = 104 + 197 Tested on Apex Bats at 3k TP for 8 WS's each. MAB = 45914 WSD = 46052 Tested on Apex Eruca at 3k tp for 8 WS's Each. MAB = 46199 WSD = 46252 So uh Tomayto, Tomawto ?? They are so close I'll just go with which has more MACC I guess.

Did you try scouts gorget +2 over pendent? also wondering if me testing in reisen because the vorseals we get to push the mab over the wsdmg
Foxfire said: » Did you also account for the ∆AGI between the two sets, if any? Good Point, WSD set had +15 AGI. I was also testing a 3k tp and Zero was testing at 1.1k.

But yeah I think maybe vorseals did it. I'll do more testing on our next dynamis wave3 clear, probably next month. With Malaise, Acumen, Evokers, Warlocks it may change. Asura.Zeroburning

i mean thats what i was telling people that its so close but yea from my testing in reisen mab was winning could have been because of the vorseals and i use scouts +2 rank 25 in my Tf set but definitely go with MAcc Sets for sure when you start doing end game 140+ content
Reisenjima vorseals would favor WSD sets, not MAB. The more MAB you have, the less of an increase (percentage wise) that additional MAB is.

from my sets thats the dmg i posted from doing tf on Chapuli at 1100 tp and my mab sets was going over my wsdmg
If 1 MAB ~ 100 damage then yeah 40 MAB > 10% damage
At your mab eat a mab food (+6) and see if you gain 600 damage https://www.ffxiah.com/item/6063/fruit-parfait Leviathan.Celebrindal

I think step one is to post testing with full listing of stats and buffs- AGI has a huge factor in Trueflight damage, and is often forgotten about in these days of MAB/WSD vomit. Getting exact numbers of all stats, what the buffs are (and who's giving them- a non-capped dunna geo or a capped idris for example).
There's clearly something going on, and zero, don't fear the questioning- what you're suggesting does change a great deal of what is accepted knowledge, so if it pans out expect pushback. And if it doesn't, know its just fellow RNGs wanting the best knowledge out there. MAB and WSD are equivalent stats. The only thing that makes WSD perform 'better' point for point is that there is so much less of it. The following is going to tell you what is better (as long as AGI remains constant.)
D = (100 + MAB) * (100 + WSD) Just plug in all of the gear sets you're considering and you can know which will give you better results. The 3 MAB ~ 1 WSD works because gear puts you in the +250~300 MAB range while your WSD should be under 40 unless you've got some crazy DM augments or are erroneously using JSE (unless you want the macc, then those are good choices.) I've got 322 MAB and 23 WSD in my set. Based on those numbers, you get the following. +1 MAB - 0.2370% marginal gain +1 WSD - 0.8130% marginal gain 3.431 MAB/WSD marginal gain ratios.

so currently in the set i have atm for my trueflight is 379 Mab and 10% WSDMG and 320 Agi not buffed
Swapped capped Samnuha Coat for Carmine Scale Mail. Been meaning to for a while, just been lazy. My final build.
+329 Magic Attack Bonus +334 Magic Accuracy +23% Weapon Skill Damage 319 AGI Should get another 11 Magic Accuracy when I finish upgrading Gastra. I could swap out herc hands for carmine although I don't want to lose the magic accuracy. Suppose I could put it in a high acc set though. Leviathan.Celebrindal

I could swap out herc hands for carmine although I don't want to lose the magic accuracy. Suppose I could put it in a high acc set though. with that level of macc, I honestly think you'll be fine using carmine+1 hands over some augmented herc for anything outside of targets where you shouldn't be using Trueflight anyways due to ridiculous mdef/meva. Those times as we all know is when we should pull out Last Stand. I'm sitting around 290macc in my build right now and never have resist issues that make me question my choices- again, unless I were to foolishly try and hammer a dyna wave2 boss with trueflight or something of that nature. tl;dr- go for it on the carmine hands. I've been doing things like Escha T4 using Trueflight. I don't know what the requirements are for those so I just pile on a lot. Making the changes to carmine hands would only increase my damage by around 0.52% and then whatever 4 AGI would do. I'll definitely add them to my low acc set but I think 30 macc is worth a 1% increase in damage.
