Aim for Mekira-oto (+1) and Avant Mail +1 until you get Ace's mail for your kaiten set.

You also might want to heavily consider going 5/5 on Tachi: Shoha

For Kaiten Avant+1/Ace's/Byrnie+1 come to mind.

For Namas I am thinking Twilight Mail or whatever that +1 Ranged Attack/AGI body is called.

So an augmented Kabuto beats Mekira +1? I've been wondering this but haven't seen anyone talk about it.

How would you like it mathed? I math all my gear/sets with DPS and a basic spread sheet i made.

Edit: There are times where Mekira+1 does pull ahead, like when the Att is being used for Fudo/Kaiten.

Ideally you would have both, but with Temps in VW and mainly spamming Shoha on harder mobs Shura comes out ahead slightly.

Shoha - Fodder

Shoha - Qilin

Fudo - Fodder

TP - Hasso
According to my calculator, this is a 6-hit (at least for 1-hit WS, such as Fudo), unless I've overlooked something several times. :/

Edit: Nvm, Ikishoten merits. >_<
Is that actually, reliably better? You're not too much short for a 5-hit either.

store tp merits and job trait? (not counting Ikishoten hits for 5hit)
That set is 20.8 tp a hit. You just need 16.8tp return on your WS (grip +8 more sTP)

Lol. I didn't even pay attention, since I've assumed it's to be a full Zanshin set..

Well, it's weird anyway. If STP is intended, it's all good.

Yeah was supposed to be Misuu I fixed it.

I was playing with 2hit VW builds and had to put everything back, forgot to change Misuu because it looks the same as Unkai and I was rushing.

Great info. Just curious Taint; would Shura+1 be optimal when zerk is down aswell for Shoha?

Mekira+1 pulls ahead when pDIF isn't capped, so zerk down on tier6 VW mobs it prob pulls ahead slightly. (40% att bonus favors Shura)

At the end of the day its very close but Shura is slightly better in most situations and its a ton cheaper. I have less then 2mil in my Shura+1 and that includes buying sky pops, cursed -1 and tatters.

1/18 on the Abj. for my MNK... 2.5mil for the -1, 3mil plus in tatters, and all I have is ws damage +3%... I think my main will be sticking with Mekira +1 for a while haha.

So ws damage from gear and overwhelm are 2 separate term into the damage calculation ? *1.03 and *1.19 instead of *1.22 at the end ?

What about relic boost on ws damage for kaiten, is it separate too ?

Lucky may Vary?

I paid 400k for my Sieryu pop, 1.2mil for the -1 and spent 500k on tatters but only used 9/62.

Yes WSdamage and OW are seperate.

There was a post on BG that describes the effects of "Elemental effect on day" adding a certain amount of fTP to a WS matching the corresponding day of the week. As shoha is Fragmentation/Compression, it will enhance the FTP to the same amount as an elemental gorget/Belt on Windsday, Darksday, and Lightningsday. Mekira should win on those days.

http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/108199-Random-Facts-Thread-Other?p=4979350&highlight=Mekira-oto+%2B1#post4979350

The damage is so similar, it isn't worth killing yourself for either one. I personally use Mekira +1 because of re-sellability,, horrible luck with synergy, less instances of -HP gear, and not needing to swap to something else for weaker mobs.

Also Taint, you have light gorget listed on your shoha set. (Shouldn't it be breeze, shadow, or thunder?).
