Because Arcadian Jerkin +1 is too random to make a consistent 4hit build?

edit: If you don't care about a specific xhit build it is not a bad option.

At this point all i'm even considering it for is for duing double-shot and overkill. Also use it for /lockstyle lol

So assuming /war with Anni/shark bullets - 42 stp and 2/4 procs from hat is the magic number to aim for? (4 hit)

my 4hit /war is with 37 STP
26TP on WS(30STP) (assume w/ Head proc) havent seen it return less than that... just more when conserve TP proc
22.5 (22/23 TP hit 27/28 w/ Head Pro)

Could get 45stp loosing 15/16 acc but so far this set works really well.

If you shot in 1 more stp you would be in a 2/4 recycle 4-hit.

You might want to consider dropping a lot of stp instead, and hitting the minimum stp values for a 3/4 recycle 4-hit, using 31 stp to shoot and 21 stp to ws.

This is like saying melee jobs should avoid double attack because it makes their x-hit "less consistent."

except it isn't because double attack doesn't change the amount of stp you get per swing

Neither does arcadian jerkin, unless you neglect to put stp in a different slot I guess?

You would want to keep the same amount of total stp, I assumed that was pretty obvious.

"alot"... most likely 1 STP Piece(of 5) on /WAR I dont use staff so dont use the 6STP Grip.

Will check what can I replace for sure ACC,but will see if have any other option

pretty sure recycle doesn't proc on double shots is why (not that 5% should even be significant?), unless zero is just being a noob and didn't think to put stp elsewhere

I don't think recycle can proc on overkill, I had run of VD elvaan where I used overkill during invincible and got 0 tp back from recycle.

It does. I used overkill tonight, checking my ammo before and after. I only lost 2 bullets.

Is it better dps to ws during overkill then? Eye-balling it just seems too much of a delay to me.

I don't know, I have wondered that myself. Reason being, if the ratio of 2/3 double shot and 1/3 triple shot holds up, you are still looking at needing to pull the trigger twice to get tp 2/3rds of the time, and you will be at an over supply of TP. And if you aren't WSing, then you can drop the x-hit gear and go max damage.

I generally stack more rapid shot and snapshot gear for overkill, lock the set and spam my shoot macro.

I guess it depends a lot on your timing also?

Did some test, the recycle tp augment can only proc on the first hit of overkill/DA, recycle can proc on the following hit, but you don't get the 5 extra tp augment.

I am trying to map out my sets based around Hgafircian since that is my only 119 ranged weapon at the moment and this is what I have come up with.

ItemSet 324666
ItemSet 324667

By my calculations the base TP given with Hgafircian +2 and Achi bullets is 17.2. This set, +26 stp in TP phase and +12 in WS would give enough TP for a 4 hit as long as both hits of Last Stand hit and Recycle procs at least 3/4. With the gear that I have until I can get items like bloodrain strap or Kydfasdfaesradf body from DM, I could maybe swap out Scout's Belt with goading Goading Belt, or throw on a Brutal Earring for an additional sTP. Adding 1 sTP would put me at 99.8 TP gained if I get 3/4 procs of Recycle and I miss the second hit of last stand. Is this an acceptable set?
