Earring Choices For Tp Set.

Haven't seen it mentioned to much, but i've been conflicted on what 2nd earring to use in a tp set. Almace/Ochain paladin 26% haste build and either Suppa/Brutal, Ethereal/Brutal, or MoonShade(+4atk +1 regain)/Brutal. i've always leaned to moonshade, but I figured i would get your guys thoughts.

Macro in ethereal when taking damage.

Macro it in? Way too much work.

personally i use ethereal or moonshade, my moonshade is +4att/occ. grants damage bonus based on TP, so far happy with it, first one i'd definally do brutal, second one is something you have to switch out for the situation though

I typically just use brutal/ethereal since i'm usually taking dmg when playing pld anyways. I don't have a moonshade yet but when i finish WoTG ill be getting atk/tp bonus for CDC since the tp bonus equates to 2.5% crit hit rate increase.

Are you at the -delay cap? [Yes. Moonshade/brutal] [No. Suppa/brutal]
Macro in your Ethereal for when you take dmg and need mp.

Edit: "***is situational" that used to be the motto of this forum it's a pity I haven't seen it in awhile.

since when does suppa count for sword + shield?

since you have it use moonshade while engaged, switch to something else if not (etheral / af3 earring)

if you didn't have the regain moonshade (if you had any DD's with emps, u shouldn't) i would suggest an attack earring (aesir / centauru)

Dual Wield works really well with a shield.

So well.
Not sure why I thought I was in blu forums. I know nothing about pld so I'm just going to head out.

Suppanomimi also has sword skill +5
Which contributes to Attack/Acc.

so, yes it isn't a terrible option if you don't have aesir/centarus/ethereal.

Good point

Could also wear a str+4? Earring to raise fstr for tp phase.

I do 4acc/Regain Moonshade and Brutal Earring. The regain comes in handy for most of my jobs since I can stay outside of melee range when weakened and gain TP and works for some low man BCNM/Missionn fights because I can gain TP before I engage like the sleep potion+opo necklace tactic. Also nice on PLD when I'm slept/petrified/stunned, I can still get some TP or for those times where I'm stuck at like 98-99% TP for more than 2 seconds and I keep missing/taking shadows or hit for zero/stoneskin and the mob is missing me or hitting someone else/hate reset.

Regain moonshade is a waste, particularly for a job that utilizes Chant du Cygne or any other crit based empyrean weaponskill/weaponskill that benefits greatly from TP.

New earring with acc+3, attack+9, eva-6, Ghillie Earring+1, seems like a solid option.

Light earring with crit rate is my earring of choice. Unless your attack is increased significantly enough with anything else, this should/would win out.

Light earring is worse than suppa.
