For ugui, I came up with the following set:
ItemSet 300243
I'm still a beginner sam, so not sure if it's actually a 5-hit, but I think it is with 15 stp during WS and both hits connect. If I'm wrong or there are improvements to be made, let me know. I only made this using FFXI calculator and requiring 5hit, unkai+2 legs, and capped haste (Bonus for not using phorcys as I don't have any).

I'm not going to math out your STP, but 5-hit with conditions isn't a true 5-hit. Aim for a perfect 5-hit, or it'll hurt whenever you miss a hit.
Would have to get 18 TP back from a WS and I am not really sure how you would pull that off. Also lacking a lot of accuracy that you need for new SoA NMs.
It could be the calculator messing up as I still don't have shoha in game, determining that a 2hit ws with +15 stp from gear for sam will yield 18 tp, which should apply to shoha. As for the acc, compared to Taint's set, it would only be +94 acc vs +75 acc, assuming both used ugui. If acc was an issue, I would just forget the 5-hit build and gear for acc instead.
As for the set being a conditional 5-hit, I'm still trying to determine a good build using what I have available. From what I have, trying to make a perfect 5hit would sacrifice too much in stats to make it worthwhile, and double checking with the DPS spreadsheet confirms this, although it may be different in high buff situations. Also, it doesn't seem too bad, only requiring both hits from shoha versus multiple successful hits from a high multihit ws.

I'm showing that in order to 5-hit with Ugui you need 55 stp if you are still going to use ItemSet 298509 to shoha in, which I haven't seen anything posted that says this set is not still best for now. Is 55 stp even possible without completely disregarding all other stats?
ItemSet 300300
I show this as a 6-hit, still able to use the above shoha set, 25% haste, and before upgrading the body/weapon, +119 accuracy. I don't have a ton of experience with spreadsheeting and calculating acc/att caps, but I know I have read plenty about how evasive delve nm's are. This may be over the top on accuracy, but its easy enough to sub in other parts (change out ring, ammo, neck for example) if it is too much. Thoughts?

119 acc + loads of dex in the tp set but only like 17 acc in the WS set?
Looked over some of the Mikinaak stuff since I was bored and thought I'd post what I've found. Only played around with Kogarasumaru(AM3) and Masamune(AM1) sets, though. All information is assuming path A and ignoring Yaoyotl Helm/Whirlpool Greaves. Fighter's/Samurai Roll were not used in any comparisons.
Kogarasumaru:
Masamune:
Didn't really do any proofreading. Apologies if I derped somewhere.

Went ahead and played with Uguisumaru with Mikinaak stuff as well since I had nothing better to do. Same conditions as my prior post.

nice guide :P lol
Given the delay of ugusiumaru is anyone able to 5 Hit this and cap accuracy on delve bosses and nq mobs?
Android wouldn't let close that gap on 5 hit...

If by delve boss, you mean inside Naakual, no, that is not possible to 5 hit and cap accuracy unless there is an unknow gimmick but didn't seems like it.
sorry I should clarify I mean stuff like Tax'et and the like.
Anyone have mid level and high level sets for the ugly GKT?
Been gone two weeks, so a bit behind it seems :X.

Thanks Taint! Seems best to just rock a 6 hit then force a true 5 hit thats probably going to whiff and build tp at the same rate of a 6 hit anyway. The calculator i used showed that in order for a true 5 hit (4 after ws) needed to tp in 53 stp and ws in 11 Stp, thats also counting a 17.3 return on ws which judging the amount of acc we need both shoha hits probably wont land all the time unlike fodder content.
Here's a low/mid set for any returning players (it's what I use without brd or cor buffs), tons of acc, all easily available and cheap to get you started:
ItemSet 300997
obvious easy upgrades: belt+1 and mars ring, new earring set (16k plasm), and new feet with dex/acc path (15k or 18k plasm, not sure)
and a WS set with a bunch of accuracy:
ItemSet 301000
for pick up delve groups where you're receiving no buffs. mikinaak breastplate is 20k plasm
Plan to go back and wreck VW, NNI and Salv2, for the necessary pieces after gearing up in delve. May not be the intended path, but it's certainly more efficient.

Assuming a mob would have about 850 def / 850 evasion, 120 agi, 120 vit.
What would you use ? no rng or war in pt, 4 roll, 8 song, no soul voice.
edit: Assuming average roll, not lucky/XI.

has anyone done math on Miki. Breastplate (Rank 15 path A) against Phorcys for Shoha? interested to hear about that.

Yes, it's a noticeable loss in DPS against Phorcys.
I'm going to be finishing my Amano within the week, looking for a bit of advice on an entry level 5hit TP set. I don't do NNI, Delve or Salvage yet, looking to buff up my SAM to get me into the harder level content.
ItemSet 302236
Is this a decent TP set to secure a 5hit with Shoha? Am I overshooting STP here? I can't seem to find a way to cap haste and maintain a 5hit given my gear options (Phos +1 is out of my price range).

I've looked around in this Forum and I figured this would be the appropriate place to ask.
Does anyone have an Apex Arrow set? And what is the Hierarchy to stack? AGI > STR > RATT? Thanks!

This is what I use except for the feet which I'm 0/5 on:
ItemSet 298937
I just got my Yoichinoyumi a couple hours ago, and here's what I'm using so far for Namas:
ItemSet 302660
The legs I'm kind of iffy on... My options (as of right now) are Karieyh brayettes, Ogier's breeches (wasn't sure if the +3% damage would be worth it since no other modifiers are present on that piece), or NQ Tenryu hakama which I suppose I could augment, but meh...
Obviously chocaliztli boots are better in the feet slot, but I haven't gotten a pair as of yet.
Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks.
EDIT: I totally forgot that I had mikinaak cuisses- I will use those.
Additional Edit: Yoichinoyumi is now level 99 and my set has been updated.

off the top of my head Quauhpilli Helm, on days that Mekira don't apply.
I'm presently 0/6 on quauhpilli helm... I'm pretty much f*ck that dinosaur.
