i've been too busy with the world cup to play since the update. So I'm curious about rng's dmg numbers changing at all as well.

I haven't done anything too worthwhile since the update. Will maybe try and do some Marjami delve or something later (/poke Afa) but in lolVW I was putting up 11-13k Last Stands (Pil and Morta; was only receiving 2 minuets (at most) in addition to self/VW buffs) but this was eyeballed and a crap event lol.

I didn't notice a significant change on D AA GK.

Will also note that I'm missing a few pieces of gear still. Not sure what bearing this would have on #s.

So, anyone test the other ws's yet.. I just did a 5k Detonator to pil, with a bronze bullet.... that's pretty hard core. And an 8k Empyreal Arrow with ice arrows.

As for this:

I did D DM last night, Coronoch did on average 400~ more damage than usual. Mostly due to the removal of Alpha, but also 3 additional STR merits, 3 more Dex merits, and (7?) AGI merits. Though, eyeballing etc, random buffs on/off with shout group and all that.

I noticed my coro doing 14-16k to the Colibri NM in Marjami Delve, which previously it would average around 10k. (Same group of JP I do delve with).

1943 Coronach avg out of 33 WS on Cailimh (only 1 minuet, no COR and no dia). Was using a mid-acc set and Kohlruladen+1 (parsed only 93% acc even though I used low acc set and nq Kohl when I parsed 95% - but I suppose that's a normal deviation; luck etc).

Will post a set if anyone's interested, but it's nothing special lol

Since no one has sufficiently answered the question that I have seen, I just got the stupid thing and ran my own quick test.

119 Anni 10 yalms Rabbit, No Velocity shot;

Just Anni; 6073
Hurlbat; 6111
Prester; 6270
Atoyac; 6309

So, that's what I wanted to know, Aotyac with WSD 2% is better than Prester, -and- you get to actually use fencer, so the dps on tp phase should be decently ahead of Prester. (I HAVE NO CLUE how to math out the dps for the tp phase). 5% more crit rate, and 40% tp bonus for last stand if you have it, I don't.

((Mithra, rng/war 15 str merits 15 dex merits 7 agi merits 8 marks merits)) In case anyone wondered.

Glad I don't have to waste login points to get a Prester at least.

Anyone try out Trueflight w/o a mythic? Wondering if it might be worth unlocking that WS.

I've been meaning to but haven't got the chance to yet :/

I'm so lazy! But I don't even know what a Trueflight set would look like... I imagine it's close to (if not the same as) ideal Wildfire set though.

Wasn't impressed for me. I used my WF build, and was only getting 3800-3900.

Think you would lose too much for that.

Atoyac has the Rare tag, so no, you cannot.

But that was a common thing back in abyssea, with 2 aug'd daggers with crit damage 12%.

You could conceivably get an Atoyac 4% and Yatagan 6%. At the loss of fencer by subbing ninja. Though, that could certainly be fun w/ Jishnu's. As for good better best, idk.

The double Yataghan dagger crit damage +12% certainly did work.

It was Crit DAMAGE not Crit RATE.

Though tbh I never saw any testing on the staff either for or against the 15% crit rate working on ranged weapons. (not saying it wasn't done, just saying I never saw it).

So the shark dagger now is best for coronach? Haven't gotten to test anything this week. Curious to see sets that guarantee a 2/4 recycle proc without cor buffs


ItemSet 319855

Is what I'm thinking



Edit;you'd be losing zerk, and crit rate +5 just by subbing ninja alone. Only time you should /nin is to do less dmg on purpose, or on AATT. I still /war for DM. Utsusemi is for pussies!

Needing 4sTP on Kote?

I just did /NIN for DM(D) and noticed at least one other person was /WAR and they happened to pull hate and die :<

I was definitely doing less dmg than I could have been if I subbed WAR... and I probably would have /WAR'd if I knew it was alright with the leader but I just assumed /NIN lol (I go with shout groups unfortunately)

It is situational but you can still do a ***ton of dmg - the extra weapon could help with boosting dmg (not a ton obviously) while still providing survivability. Regardless of if everyone has relics, in a fight like DM2 I think it's beneficial to sub /NIN... Can easily still win parse (ie: preform well)... I did 170k dmg, the next person (who was /WAR) did 150k and I saw the last person was just barely over 100k lol, but I didn't get a look at their sub.

Thats pretty much STP in every slot, isn't it too much? I'm terrible @xhit lol, especially with counting on recycles.

It takes the ring and the belt to replace the stp from strap, has to be somewhere to make up 1 stp and keep the ring or belt. Looks like 4 stp over the set soups had posted w/ strap. Qaaxo feet/Skadi +1 legs, AF3+2 legs? Would all cover the 1 stp and free up the ring/belt, or any other 5 stp slot, lots of combos to try out and see what's best, where's soups at!

Also, patentia > Goading, enmity.

Doing bar math on my phone but soups set appears to be a 3 recycle proc set, sorry if I'm wrong. I'm aware of the enmity+ on goading but 4m and inv-1 says hi.

Arc. Jerkin +2 is better than Kyu if you don't need the sTP? :o

This is somewhat surprising to me, especially as you could fit Kyu in there and take out another sTP piece in exchange, such as Chalmys for Lutian or Aetosaur for Nahtirah.

I don't have #s from either set, which is why I'm asking ._.

Arc +2 is a lot better if you don't need the stp, the 5% double shot is really hard to beat in any other slot.

Will have to mess around with that, got tons of chapter 7s anyway.

I'll have to make adjustments as I don't have kyu or tripudio but shouldn't be too bad to make work in the meantime. Seems like acc would be fine also but would have to /checkparam to see if I'd be better off using K'yares or Patentia as a replacement til I get those dumb DM2 pieces.

What's the minimum sTP on the Seiryu's?
If it's only 4 I may try switching those out for Arc.Bracers+2
and Aetosaur+1 for Sylvan+2. Kinda boned if it's +5 though.

Edit: never mind - I see your comment on the item set now. Oh well. No idea why I thought +4 would work.

Could switch Aetosaur+1 for Sylvan+2, drop Volley and then would only need +3 on Seiryu's (which is conveniently what I have lol). Would still need to look into whether I'd replace ring or belt to make up for my lack of Tripudio but I think leaving the rings alone would likely be best since I'm loosing some r.acc by not using Aetosaur
