So I was messing around on thf/cor in lolballista the other day, and although I don't think it will have much use anywhere else... it was actually a very entertaining combination.

Aeolian > Earth shot > Earth shot could pump out a quick 1150 (450+350+350) damage and then wearing enough eva on thf made it have decent survivability.

So I was wondering if anyone could pick out any pieces I am missing for my current build that could up Quick Draw damage.



Anwig and Mirke I plan to augment with magic attk and eva. Kila+2 are eva at the moment, but I am going to make some magic attk ones if I ever find the time. Only additional magic attk I can think of is demon rings. Anyone have any further ideas?

If you're using your tp first and can sacrifice the tp return you get from ws you could swap on an HQ ele staff. How much matk can you get on kila? It's a shame thf can't use forban cape and heavy shell. I can't think of mab pieces for your back or feet.

The thing that stands out most to me is the body. If you're using it just for QD, MAB+ and QD Delay- are going to be best.

As far as I'm aware, Epona's won't do anything for QD. Throw on a M. Acc ring, an AGI ring or an augmented Demon Ring instead. Same for Rajas, unless you need the STP for some reason.

Pretty sure Ugly Pendant beats Artemis' when Moon isn't 100% (at least in terms of MAB).

Not a math wiz, just stuff to think about. I could be totally wrong =P

Edit: In terms of damage on Aeolian and acc/damage on QD, the AGI/WS DMG+ and MAB Augs will be best on Anwig, I think.

i havent played XI in awhile, still an 80BST, but why wouldn't you just level COR? I'm just curious.

Didn't really say this well enough but this is a ballista set up. So that is the reason I'm putting eva on some pieces rather than giong full out damage because you can't gear swap in ballista.

And to just playing cor instead, I don't like how easily cor can be dropped. Thf has much higher survivability vs most other jobs in ballista.

Oops, didn't catch the Ballista part. Disregard what I said then (except maybe the part about situationally using Ugly Pendant).

people have been playing with thf/cor since 80 cap, there are probably at least a few item sets for qd, but yours looks good as far as mab items plus already mentioned augmented rings.

as for why not level cor... i think a good enough reason is just not wanting to level another job? also, th is nice and if qd is better than meleeing, why not?
