7K+ Jin on what? Bogs?

lol, i should ask but i didn't find it impossible considering that i spiked 5k+ (not on bogs) and i'm not perfectly geared.

yea I think 5kish was the highest spikes I remember from Jin and it was maybe once or twice don't remember the mob at all, 7K just seemed kinda high to me
I was doing 5-6k jins occasionally on Sirrush while farming my sobek skins. Not sure why, but My highest spikes were always on Sirrush.

I seen a lot of ninjas with kannagi lately who can't tank at all. So, if this mean in the near future when people shout for a ninja with must add kannagi ninjas onry in our shout? lol

people need to start worrying about others not having this and that. If this makes you upset log off from the game or go back to dual boxing by yourself.

Hated or love it people don't have emps yet.

Looking back, I wish I had tried it out over aias. Maybe people are afraid of that -20 acc for some reason.

Berserk/stalwarts/food, Aias was pulling ahead in my jin set over varangian on heroes exp mobs. Will mess with it later, but on most scars/heroes nms, Varangian should be better unless the acc is an issue.

I was wondering if I should get the viking helm but Ive been rocking my anwig salade (str/agi ws acc ws dmg) for quite some time and its so versatile (for jin as well as blade hi and has its uses for cor ws excluding wildfire)

i asked nightfyre about it a while back and was told something like generally if i need the attack i probably can't sacrifice that much accuracy. this was probably at 85 cap though, if that matters.

Aias bonnet/Rancor collar/Centaurus earring/Brutal/Qirmiz

Iga ningi+2/Koga tekko+2/Epona's ring/Rajas' ring

Atheling mantle/Anguinus belt/Byakkos haidate(+4% crit dmg)/Koga feet+2


Any ideas for improvement? I use koga tekko +2 over Af hands+1 because its so close and I'm already 77/80 inventory lol

Just posted this like 2 days ago or something.



Edit:
Some things to consider with new gear.



Possibly when you need atk/acc:
Myrmex Mittens

Shura probably still beats this, but may as well put this gere just in case:
Khepri Bonnet

Chance these will beat BH even with 4% crit dmg:
Khepri Kecks

wanion belt

EDIT: TP Bonus Moonshade might be a good option. Not sure if I'd go with those hands or myrmex mittens.

What about other pieces like Ocelomeh Headpiece +1 and Toci's Harness? Wouldn't Rancor Collar be good too?

If you are using Rancorous Mantle, I think Nefarious Collar is better than Breeze Gorget for Jin.

Of course, I don't know how big of a gain you get between using Rancor Collar and Atheling Mantle versus Nefarious Collar and Rancorous Mantle. Obviously the latter is a lot more expensive but I think it is the best set up possible for back/neck combos.

Pretty sure ningi+2 beats both. If you don't have it, Toci's probably wins.

Still working on +2 body, thanks.

What about head? Ais bonnet vs Oce. +1?

Sorry about all these questions, but the DPS spreadsheet doesnt seem to have info on Jin, or maybe I just suck at reading it *entirely possible*

Just go to the the setup page and there's a dropdown menu for the WS. Blade: Jin's one of the ones listed (He even put Kamu there, lol).

Just to recap and make sure I got it right:

For blade:jin -> rancor collar + cuchulain's belt are better than breeze gorget + breeze belt

For blade:shun -> light gorget + light belt are better than rancor collar + cuchulain's belt

Correct?
