Perhaps he can't merit Exenterator since SE wont let us merit more than 3 weapon skills and he's unsatisfied with his unstacked Evisceration damage.

I imagine it's the same as your evis set besides Delta Earring and AF2+2 feet if you weren't using it before.

Dancing edge is better than evisc outside so post a set or post your useless comments on a different thread!

When making a thread requesting assistance, it's generally better to sit back and just take the garbage that's being thrown at you. It's pretty much inevitable.

Maat's cap also comes to mind. Perhaps Aisance Mantle +1 if you think you have enough atk. Skadi body should be comparable to Toci/Athos if you want to go that route.

When you start a thread and then start demanding ***, you are going to get worthless posts. If you want help, maybe you should ask. Even better, you could ask nicely. Trying to tell me what to do, and "NO U" is the response you'll get.

Here's my evisceration set if you want it. I don't really play THF much though so take it for what it's worth.

I get good numbers with Evisceration in Abyssea (2,500-4k) w/o SATA, out side though it's not a slice of fried gold (900-1.5k) also w/o SATA. Dancing Edge does even lower unstacked, stacked is still not that great either.

The only time I've gotten decent numbers with Dancing Edge is on DNC and while using Wild Flourish, other than that, bah, not much more than Aeolian Edge tbh.

I gotta side with Austar on this, but not that bluntly. Gear out DEX, STR, and some ATK where you can for Evisceration and you should see some improvements. Nothing's going to get you Abyssea numbers outside of Abyssea if that's what you're looking for, well, at least not without a Relic, which I don't have and can't speak on.

dont/cant commit to group events so, pretty much just solo aby and whatever else I can, with my other chars.

edit: also dont have numerous de sets and this is it, to conserve space and generally not care about thf. judge me if you must >.>

Tumbler the best option for legs or is there a better leg piece?
Aisance Mantle +1 for sure and delta earring. Also airy ring. What waist wanion? Love Torque seems best neck. Unstacked with capped attack Skadi body, or would Toci beat it? Base this against Dynamis mobs.

Well when ppl answer my original post this way i say it a different way, besides my math shows DE winning in dmg in Dynamis and that's with so-so gear. What i posted is what i think would work quite well. Feel free to adjust it.

Math is one thing, actually testing it is a different story. Did you simply math it out or did you actually go in and start parsing? I've used Evisceration, Exenterator, and Dancing Edge in Dynamis and so far unstacked Exenterator > Evisceration > Dancing edge.

From what I saw on your set I'm not sure what you could do better to up your Dancing Edge dmg.

"can you please post some DE sets @ 99"

"no, DE sucks, here's an Resolution set"

I think he handled it well, and DE does outperform evis stacked or unstacked outside abby on higher level stuff.

OP asked for Dynamis sets & i highly doubt dynamis mobs count as "higher level" lol. Yes, in dynamis evis > DE. If he likes DE more thats cool and i wouldnt mind helping the better his set, but could of asked better.

DC dyna mobs, DE usually wins, your crit rate suffers a lot, especially on things like gobbues and trees. Who brings a THF to anything higher than that?

I suppose my DE build just sucked then.

And I bring a THF to wherever unless told to be WAR or DNC :D
