RNG parse from the bee last night.


This was my set:
ItemSet 301921

Preludex2,minx4,2etudes,hunters,chaos,sam,regain

Going to merit bow 8/8 (Krisstina had bow merits)
Jaeger mantle, volley, earring, Hawkers+1
How was hate management? Debating what weapon to use, if the -enmi or the added racc would be more beneficial.


We went /DRG and use a COR as a decoy dummy. Geno pulled hate but he probably wasn't managing his hate well.

The bee never came at me or Krisstina (99 Yoichis) but we were jumping everytime it was up.
Alright thanks, grats on your win! Also idk how you managed to get two HQ acc rings, I'm jelly.


We didn't win, we timed out at 15%. Was our best run, but damage went to utter ***at 25%. We will definitely win next time.

Hi, thanks for the information.

Is your Namas itemset the one you used during the fight?

Oh alright, how are the pre-NMs with that set-up? also just got home from class and lol'ing because on my phone rings looked HQ, so scratch that comment...

I have a similar setup:

I didn't get to try it on the bee, but with Sole Sushi, 1x Prelude, and Hunter's Roll, was parsing 94.92% Ranged Accuracy on Mastop last night. (according to scoreboard)

You still use sushi, Taint? Or you think it would be safe to try Pot-a-feu on some of them?

I used RCB on the first 2, antacid, then sushi for mega boss, assuming you're doing chapuli and butterfly. Butterfly is 'slightly' evasive, but not an issue with prelude or hunter's. GEO makes a HUGE difference for the boss. Definitely recommend putting them in the RNG party for accuracy bonus. I wouldn't attempt the boss without one.

You want as much accuracy as you can get. Ranged attacks were doing over 800 with annihilator (not triple damage proc) and coronach for 6k, so don't worry about ranged attack at all.

Hi Helel,

In the gun gearset, you use Manibozo gloves. I was wondering at which point do they become better than Sigyn. Mine currently have +10 Ratt and + 5 Racc augments. I am still working on Sigyn.

Thanks.

Yeah. His defense is very low. We didn't even have GEO doing defense down. We had SV minuet x4 and chaos roll and dia obviously.

I wouldn't use them, especially with the higher VIT the new mobs have (harder to cap fSTR2). I'll have to change them.

Edit: 'them' being manibozho. I'd stick with sigyn's.

So I was leveling RNG before the whole DelveBoss bandwagon arrived, but have always had this question in mind:

I've had SAM for a long time and really enjoy that job, however with RNG I'm considering a Bow or Gun.

Given that Uguisumaru and the Delve Boss GKT is significantly strong to hold its own, should I go with Yoichi or Anni? I'm not sure if I see myself using SAM as an Archery job, but the option is nonetheless appealing. Is Gun that much more awesome to play with?

I plan on using Manibozho for lower tier content where capping fSTR2 isn't an issue (more Recycle excites me). Definitely Sigyn for Delve, though.

You don't need them. Last I saw, the new natural Recycle trait, 5/5 merits, and AF2+2 head caps recycle at 95%

It's awesome now, and will be for the next few months with the bullet update. Who knows what REM adjustments will do. I don't know that much about SAM, but I imagine it's better to use the new GK instead of namas spam.

They could potentially still have a spot.

30 ranged attack, 10agi, 10racc, -7enmity, snapshot, 10% recycle. I guess for super buffed boss fights you wouldn't need the ratt if capped, but otherwise they aren't that bad of a tp phase piece. effective 15racc, 30ratt

55% base recycle + 25% merits = 80% recycle. 10% hands = 90%. 5% back = 95% capped with no head slot. I wouldn't say they are useless, for some scenarios the headpeice isn't doing much for you, overTP on relic is a waste. Depends on buffs i suppose, i would think sam roll totally negates head procs, and if you don't need the recycle, then its useless

Yeah, for me at least, the head is doing a lot. I'll probably still upgrade them eventually.

I upgraded them as well (why they were in my set) but I don't see myself using them currently. The ranged attack is largely negated by the 8 STR and 22 ranged attack (for gun) that sigyn's have. In fact, sigyn's will almost assuredly pull ahead. I could see them being more useful for bow, but not sure.

Looks like max ACC sets will need adjusting soon, to compensate for the added Ranged Accuracy from AGI going from a 50% modifier to 75%

ItemSet 299068

Using this on sam for racc. I like rng but having both weapons on sam i figure it could help out more on the tier nm's. is rng the only viable option or is sam/drg or sam/rng?

Forgot to add, switching to mura instead of amano when purely range atking. Was just thinking being able to meditate and split some tp would be beneficial. But might be lacking in racc to actually accomplish the dmg needed

For ceizak?
100racc +45agi and sushi is pretty comfortable without bard songs.

For NMs This is roughly what I hybrid mix together for tp/ws depending on the delve NM on ranger if I have to lean towards more racc.
ItemSet 302830

Sometimes tp with platinum arrows for +15racc for alittle more accuracy but damage is then gimped.
I usually do arching arrow to make light with all the shohas flying around from all the sams instead of apex.

I have multiple bodies/mantles/etc I can swap in and out depending on the NM , depends if I get prelude or if I gotta stick with sushi.
Haven't found the sweet spot yet for all the NMs, you gotta come prepared for best/worst case really and adapt on the fly sometimes.

Damn. Those adjustments to RNG are going to make these bosses much easier. We're getting higher damage bullets and essentially more ranged attack and accuracy. With the higher pDIF cap for ranged damage, that's pretty big news. It will also affect WS builds slightly.
