LS be doing Pil tomorrow, anything to note 'bout it?
He's increasingly likely to put up a shield after Bishop's Gambit as his HP decreases, said shield grants invulnerability to all damage types. The only way to remove it is to proc weakness. He also loves using that move. Save procs if you can, especially after you cap lights. Fully upgraded regain and Save TP atmacites are a godsend for this guy, as if they weren't great to begin with. Shah Mat's doom will wear after he stops looking at you so don't sweat it too much. Flank Opening can do enough damage to wipe out an unprepared DD occasionally, not sure why, possibly due to un-erased def down effect. Can use Kaustra, initial damage isn't too threatening but the DoT is potent.
hows his hp/def/eva? like, if kinda low-man, him spamming this shield
and not gettin' steady procs can result in an easy timeout? shield interests me though, sounds like it'll be a fun fight

Fairly low HP but timing out is possible with a small group. Akvan had lower def iirc but not 100% on that.
I haven't been able to play around with blu's heavy strike lately, but I'm trying to build a set around it. The thing is I don't know how inaccurate it is and how much I should balance str vs acc.
This is my current set, or rather a set that kind of has a balance of both.
Head: AF+2 Head? Got the acc or leave it for CA?
Body: AF+1 Body or Loki's? Obviously Toci would be a good replacement, but that's something that isn't exactly readily available.
Hands: Heafoc would've been here if it wasn't for the -acc
Neck: Ziel is probably something I'd look into
Back: Aife looks solid, but don't know where to get now, cuch for balance or stick with Potentia/Vigilance +1
Feet: Chose denali because of str/acc
Ears: ???????
It looks good dude. i would say, Keep your brutal earring on (im assuming you have 1) The ear1 you have is nice, but that wont make an big difference, but Phys spells can double attack and keep in mind we can set Triple attack as well. (/war + Brutal + Atheling mantle + Agrona's Leggings = 20%). AF2 for CA as you mentioned, the bonnet is a good piece, but try to look into Anwig Salade with Str4 Dex4Crit dmg 2%. With my current set testing it in Abyssea Ule (havent had the luxury to take it to VW yet) and /war my Strikes range between 3k raw and 6k with CA and Efflux. (high 6850) but your set is really nice Though. keep up the good work!

Blue magic skill is 447 and sword is 401 so I don't really have an acc problem. And yeah yeah, I need a pyrosoul ring.
But I'm really not seeing this low acc problem with Heavy Strike. It wiffs about as much as Cannonball use to when that was the main HNM spell and you were casting it while SA was down. >_>
Also idk why Perdu is still there... >.> Though I did love it at a time :<
SKILL DOES NOT EFFECT PHYSICAL BLUE MAGIC ACCURACY
Wikipedia said:
Blue Magic Skill determines the damage rating (D-rating) of physical Blue Magic. This damage rating caps approximately 15 levels above the level of the spell. No cap has been determined for spells learned at level 60 or later.
Also it's STR/DEX+5. Is it really that bad of a body?

it's your blue skill, 447 is damn high your accuracy must be epic
edit: considering heavy strikes autocrits I'd say loki's has a little more advantage than 5 str and 15 skill but I don't know, I'm calling out somebody more experienced than me on blu to give us an idea. Also he was mentioning blue skill in the accuracy part of his reasoning.

Oh he mad
Quite. :< Seriously though, if skill affects the damage, and the spell has a STR and/or DEX mod, I don't see what's so horrible about AF+1 body. Maybe he just needs a song to get him out of this slump!
If he's still mad after listening to this, then there's no hope for him. :/
Okay, so wanted to try dmg comparison for Loki vs AF+1 body using the current item set I posted before. Did 10 casts on Heavy Strike on Evil Eyes (I'm waiting on abyssea cooldown atm since I d/ced in there last night).
