Ooops...

So in my quest to optimize, I think I over optimized, and now I don't have room for my gear. I'm trying to see which pieces will be (almost) just as good, and where I can pare down on the gear. However, I could use some advice, please.

Now, obviously, once I finish the Estoqueur Fuseau +2 this won't be an issue, but right now it is.

For my legs I have the following:

Teal Slops
DEF:32 HP+14 INT+5 CHR+5 Magic Accuracy+3 "Magic Atk. Bonus"+3

Sagacity Lappas
DEF:29 MP+20 MND+6 Magic Accuracy+6 MP recovered while healing +3

Nisse Slacks
DEF:30 HP-20 INT+8 Enmity-5 MP recovered while healing +4

Which one of these three would you get rid of, and why? TIA for the advice.

Mahatma Slops could replace the Slacks and Lappas, unless you're wanting the hMP, which I don't see as useful in aby, so you could at least put em up til you're doing something outside.

Also, if you have +1 Estoq. legs than those beat teal for nuking.

And are very easy to get. THF+WHM+BLM and spam Sirrush. You'll get your seals.

Ok ty!!

I actually just use the Sagacity and the AF3+1 at the moment. The AF pants have 7 INT and 5 Mag Acc on them so for INT potency based enfeebles I see them as more useful than Nisse.

They are also very easy to get from either an NM or from the stupid sausage quest, which is where I got all my seals from. Really either way you're going to have 2 pieces of leg gear. Even when you finish the +2 they will be vastly superior for INT based enfeebles and nukes (like I said even the +1's are great), but you still need something for MND.

In short... ditch the teal and nisse, get at least af3+1 pants.

I see you have +1 stuff listed on your wanted list for 100k a pop. Don't do that man, like Faelar said just take a THF and BLM with you, seeing as you have WHM it should be no problem to get a party together. If you do have trouble, maybe you have a THF friend and you could go RDM to have a few of the procs + healing power (which you barely need if the THF knows what they're doing)

It's a time issue for me- I'm EST time zone, and it has been easier for me to farm cruor to switch to gil (just switch to whm and flag up) than it is to get people to help me get seals. Everyone seems to have the seals they want now, and I'm finding it very difficult to actually nail down help getting seals. In most cases I have more +2 items than I do the seals for +1.

Or there's the Galkan sausage quest in Aby-Misereaux. Ended up trading maybe 3 or so stacks of sausage, got +1 RDM, DRK and RNG legs out of it.

EDIT: Mintpuddin mentioned it first, I missed that. But really, the quest is super easy and fairly cheap.

Offer to hold pop sets for people doing Empyrean weapons. For instance, Sobek, you'll do Sirrush so many times, it's pretty disgusting.

Updated my guildwork status to reflect this and see if there are any takers. Thanks for the idea, good one!
