The 23% haste build could never beat apoc. If you get to 25% haste you might be able to do comparable damage. you have to realize that the melee damage on apoc is massive though. I don't think reckoning's 16.7% increase in WS rate will overtake apocalypse's massive boost to melee damage.
I agree with Gradd. The 20% ws freq increase over a 6hit apoc would pull miles ahead. D rating isn't as important here, since it's less impressive the higher the D goes. Of course I haven't yet factored the double DMG proc, but it's not enough to beat the WS freq by any means. 5hit Apoc though is another story. Edit: Typo

The double damage is enough to beat the 5 hit build, trust me lol
You're also ignoring haste differences.

Standalone the haste difference you'd need to beat a 5hit with a 6hit in WS frequency is around, 5-6%? The 23% vs capped has to be like 2.3. 5% Double procs per 100 swings would in no way beat such a large WS freq increase. I haven't mathed 5hit though, but all in all relics could use a different boost next update aside from +D and further overshot accuracy, like augmented AM, etc etc, if they don't get a nice boost update they'd definitely fall behind.

Yeah but you can 5hit apoc. Oh and like a posted awhile back if you use haste belt you can get that extra haste amount

I always hated the concept of 5 hit apoc, it sacrificed too much *** gear. Now with atmas out there to make up the difference I bet they're so much more doable. Have you see any good ones?

A normal 6hit. A 5hit with reckoning has what 70 haste total with double march haste and samba? While the apoc can hit 79. But sure if you keep comparing it to 72.5ish? haste apoc reckoning would probably win

Just comparing elemental values;

6hit => 5hit: 25% increase in WS frequency. Why? The variable you are interested in is the increase in WS frequency which has a direct and proportional relationship with the number of melee hits between WS. This decreases from 5 to 4. The increase is therefore 1/4.

Why use the lower number on the denominator? Simplest way to think of this logically is consider a theoretical 2hit being reduced to a 1hit (ie, so the 1hit can just endlessly chain weaponskills) - ignoring factors like WS delay, the increase in WS frequency would be infinite.

Is this 1/1 or 1/0 (1hit between WS => 0hits between WS)?

125% WS frequency relative to Apoc from this.
2.25~% Haste difference apparent is (2.25/22)~ = 10.2% increase in DoT/WS frequency at ~capped Haste, best possible scenario for that difference, so Reckoning+1 has 89.8% the WS frequency relative to Apoc from this.

Result is +~12.3% WS frequency in Reckoning+1's favour at cappedish Haste. Reduce or increase as necessary for different areas.

If you deal 100 damage a hit and 200 damage with the double damage proc 5% of the time, total damage relative to 100 hits without the double damage proc is [(200 * 5) + (95 * 100)]/10000 = 5%.

tl;dr: Double Damage isn't enough to beat 5hit alone, but the base DMG will probably just about win in the end... it's not really that far ahead though ;x

No idea sorry, I'd assume it involes Ace's gear among other lame things.

Well not really, the set Gradd posted is 23% (of course I'm assuming fSTR/attack capped through atmas, if that much STR is really needed to be sacrificed) and Catastrophe is gear haste, so it wouldn't be substantially different.

Haste math:

23% reckoning 5 hit, apoc 25% 6 hit:
Buffs: Marchx2, haste, hasso

528-68%= 168.96 delay

513-70%= 153.9 delay

168.96*5= 844.8 delay per WS
153.9*6= 923.4 Delay per WS

WS speed difference: 8.6% more WSs with reckoning:

Melee difference:
528-68%= 168.96 delay
513-70%= 153.9 delay

Melee difference: Apoc swings 9% more times, thus 9% more damage in melee.

Other melee factors: Apoc has 17 more damage, 30 more accuracy, and double proc.

Double proc can be seen as a 5% increase in melee damage so:

Melee difference: 9%+5% = 14% more melee damage with apoc.

This isnt even counting accuracy or base damage differences.

The closer you get to capped haste the further ahead apoc will pull.

I don't think you get what I'm saying.

His gear set with double march and haste and samba is just under 70 haste. If you use Haste belt with apoc with that setup you can get just under 80. Really not sure why more drks don't think of that. Damn thing is cheap and easy to make. The difference between 70 and 80 haste is friggin huge

Ohh I see, sorry! When you said Haste belt I immediately assumed swift/vbelt etc xD

Nope. Turns out with apoc you can cap gear haste without a belt lol.

Actually I completely forgot about hasso lol. So if you have both hasso and 5/5 haste samba on top of the double march and haste you already capping total haste with apoc without haste belt.

But yeah the less haste you have the bigger a difference of haste between the 2 weapons. Potentially as big as 13% with his build depending on what buffs you getting.

I think its safe to say at this point that apoc will become a dead weapon if we get a stronger WS than guill. I mean apoc will still be the best weapon in terms of melee damage but cata is just starting to *** suck because of atmas. This is definately leaving room for a new contender for the top weapon. I would like to see drk get a WS simliar to drakesbane in concept, we've needed a good crit hit WS for quite some time.

Unless the next relic trials consist of boosting other aspects of the weapons... such as increased relic weapon skill damage or an OAT effect.

The above may be wishful thinking though, and the next relic trials may just involve more DMG+ and acc+, but who knows.

They should give us an ability that makes our spells give TP = to the damage we do. That wouldn't even be broken but would be useful.

True but if you don't have any time left in Abyssea (some shells don't) there's really not much else to do. I'm sure someone will say "suck less" but a lot of people solo Abyssea and can't pop TEs while doing NMs.

Pretty sure one job or another has equal or better MAB gear in every slot, though it took them long enough to match/beat Abyss Cuirass...
