Bushido - The Way of The Samurai (A Guide) V. 2.0
Seems kinda dumb if you don't have Hasso up.
But...why would you not have Hasso up?
Yeah... seigan kind of really blows now

You shouldn't ever build a primary TP set with the assumption that you won't have hasso up all the damn time.

Seigan is a solid ability, it's just not needed very often and not worth considering in offensive sets for the most part. with seigan you can 'anticipate' more than one atk. it also reduces the recast of 3rd eye i believe.
Odin.Jassik said: » I reworded that section on the node to be a little more clear, but this effect is explained and discussed at length including testing several times in this thread. Hasso adds 10% Job Ability haste, both Unkai Haidate and Wakido Kote "enhance hasso" by adding another 2.5% Job Ability haste when they are worn while hasso is active. You don't need them equipped when you activate hasso, you don't need them equipped during WS. The reason that one or other appear in accuracy sets is because you can regain that accuracy in other slots where 2.5% Job Ability haste is not available. For those that may be curious, unlike the AF3+2 version, Empyrean 119 leg's Hasso effect DOES stack with AF119 hands Hasso effect. However, keep in mind that if you're capping magic and gear haste, you'll be capping delay reduction with one or the other; ideally the legs.

on low acc koga would it be ok to switch out neretic with brutal earring since you have alot of stp with all of the new gear
It's a DPS loss, but yeah, you could if you don't have Neritic or that new STP4 earring from Vagary.

Ok, havent run it through spreadsheets yet, looks like neretic, how do you like those crusher gauntlets?
Actually overlooked the acc/att on them. I can see them used for PDT if you have Tartarus Breastplate (possibly even without it; dunno how the ~46 def would stack up to 4 PDT) and maybe WS acc swaps. Not sure how they'd compare to aug'd Acro Gauntlets, but at the very least it could save you quite a bit of gil.

Nenekirimaru Set:
http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/46390/nenekirimaru-april-2015-set/1/#2878671 Not sure if the set provides better DPS than Tsurumaru or Koga, but atleast its presentation is appealing.

It doesn't beat either, although it's certainly close. Koga is still King, although Tsurumaru isn't exactly far behind. Issues are that TP Overflow have such drastic effects on Fudo Damage, Tsurmaru Save TP or Koga Am3 can give you so much more TP before a DA/TA proc on WS it's nuts. The only time Koga sucks is when you need Accuracy, Tsurumaru sets have more room to stack acc whilst not dropping an Xhit, although Xhit on Koga isn't as detrimental as you would first believe.

don't think sucks is the right word, it's not like there's a point where you'd use tsurumaru over koga for ability to gear acc
Leviathan.Comeatmebro said: » don't think sucks is the right word, it's not like there's a point where you'd use tsurumaru over koga for ability to gear acc No Koga is still BiS, more the point that if you don't drop Xhit on Koga for acc when you need accuracy, Tsurumaru wins Sam tp sets getting uglier and uglier, thank God for lockstyle!
Looking at the Tsu Ionis sets wouldn't something like this:
ItemSet 335208 With Acro: DA+3, Atk/Acc+20, STR/DEX+7, be better? I wish there was a way to lose more STP, with empy and acro there is just so much that you don't need. I forgot that more ws damage is a bad thing.
Oh, well then why aren't we just using max STP everywhere!?
Because some people have sortaish figured out how DPS works!?
