Does Drachenhorn beat out Mekira+1 on days the bonus doesn't apply to the WS? I'm hearing that it does but I just ran it through the dps calculator and Mekira+1 beat Drachenhorn regardless, although marginal, but loses nonetheless. So why is it so sought after by all these SAM? Am I missing something? o.O No, Drachenhorn for SAM is pretty bad. It apparently has a weird and inconsistent formula on the attack +5% or something. Don't remember the BG thread the testing was in, so can't send a link. :/

Somewhere around here?
I never knew about that, thanks Llew! Had to look it up.

Thanks, Llew! Was wondering why it was so sought after by so many SAM I know, didn't look all that special to me @.@ . And ty for the link, Solrain, I'll read through that real quick.

Also if Usukane +1 feet are only thing worth getting for SAM currently would Omodaka Gote be a upgrate/replacement for Brego Gloves?
Thank you.
Do you have a source for the 5% as opposed to 6? :( That saddens me to hear. Usukane set bonus stuff.
Boo :(

TP
20.6TP/hit
~25% Haste
Fudo
17.7TP return
Shoha
17.6TP return (both hits land)
Comments? Your TP set is actually 20.7 TP/hit. In your Fudo set you should swap AF3 legs to Ogier Breeches, Omodoka Sune-ate to Saotome Sune-ate +2 and Hagneia Stone to Thew/Potestas Bomblet.
Other than that, great sets~
Sorry was back-reading this thread a bit, and had a question here.. so Omodaka aren't really good for any WS set? Kaiten/Fudo or Shoha? I thought they would be nice for Shoha at least for the DA, but I guess the STP on Saotome+2 is kind of required, huh?

Omodaka are in the Shoha set, however with the news of usu+1's set bonus being less than 6% for 3 pieces i may have to reevaluate my sets :(

No I know this Proth, but Llew suggested you switch them out.

Not for Shoha...
You only need relic+2 feet in your Fudo (not Kaiten) set if you don't have Tenryu+1 legs.
edit: He suggested for Fudo, not Shoha.

Where Omodaka originally in your fudo set and did he quote you before a change then? I didnt see Omo in your Fudo set, so I thought he just might have mistaken the set.

Wanted to ask, since the head/Hands/feet set combo for Usukane +1 is 5% would this set work until Tenryu Tekko +1 and Phos Belt +1?

That'll do great, but you don't need Phos +1. You're hitting 26% with NQ.

Could this set go with pole/duplus, if he maintains AM?

Yes I use that set with Duplus/tekko+1

Heya I'd like to ask someone to spreadsheet these sets since apparently I'm unable to make it work like I want to. This is what I own at the moment so replacing Unkai for Tenryu in the WS set and Pole to Duplus grip might be better for arguments sake.
TP:
assuming 5% Haste set bonus
Shoha:
Unkai for STP
What I want to know is whether this is better/even/slightly worse/far worse than using this:
with Rajas/Unkai(Tenryu)/Brutal/Hagneia Stone in WS gear for 16stp
I'd really like to get rid of that ugly body even if it enhances Zanhasso, but not if the replacement body is too bad to use.

Unkai+2 body isn't replaceable yet.
Roughly equal to 3% DA with tripple TP. It also increases your counter rate with Seigan.
You should be aiming for 64% Zanshin rate.

How does the Unkai body increase your counter rate with seigan? Did I miss something?

Unless I've been misinformed to the set-bonus on Usu+1, This is overshooting haste by 3% (+29% total). Phos+1 is pretty unnecessary, I'd put on goading since that looks a bit short on storeTP (not sure if AMup/down set)

Looks to be an AM up set(Same as the one listed a couple posts back other than hands).

That is actually Taints set from a few pages before, since he mentioned it to be the best according to spreadsheets. Its 27% Haste with Pho +1 (so NQ pho or bullwhip would be sufficient to cap haste).
Head 5 Feet 3 Set 3, Hands 4 Legs 4 Waist 7/8
As long as you WS with 16 STP (Shoha, 2hits) and TP with the set above you have the minimum amount of stp (43) needed for 5hit, according to ffxicalc.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious but thats how I see/calculated it.

I thought Salvage+1 set bonuses were found to be 5/7/9etc bonuses, which would put you at 29%. If i'm wrong, I'm wrong, obviously.

In the set you quoted I used 2 Salvage pieces for 3% Bonus. However I think you might have mixed it up with the very first set here:
Wanted to use 3 Usu pieces here, so
goading5 head5 feet3 set5 hands4 legs4 (26)
but was shot down right away since the ugly body is better
Hello, looking for some advice on gear sets for TP, Kaiten and Namas.

Thanks in advance
