I'm torn between this being a troll post, and this dude actually wanting people to be PLD/RNG based on the amount of time spent making this post...

Yes - in either case the effort that was put into it is just commendable - either way I tip my hat.

Took me a lot longer than I expected to read through this... Had to stop several times to wipe the tears from my eyes.

Thank you for making my evening.

At first I took it serious, but then I saw Kustawi instead of Thibron and I immediately knew it's an obvious trolling.

The very first sentence says "I don't have pld leveled". Should have known it was a troll from that alone.

My comment was facts (Thibron would be better) mixed with obvious joke (I wasn't for a moment thinking it's serious). Same as this whole thread.

Unless I haven't caught you joking too and you are not being serious about not understanding my comment :)

I think Thibron is more of an Ullr PLD/NIN weapon. In practical contexts, you’re better off with PLD/RNG style. TP bonus looks nice in a vacuum but I think PLD/RNG really lives and dies by the accuracy of its ranged attacks.

Thank you, Butmunch! It’s already meta for Corse ambuscade. In addition to +50% EA damage, you have Fealty, a slew of anti-undead traits and JAs, and Banish.

Why wouldn't you just PLD/BLU and bring a RNG and 2 COR?

On a semi-amusing note, PLD is on Bastok Volte, giving them decent racc and STP.

Thanks for posting your set! I had completely overlooked that PLD is on the Reiki Yotai, and I'd failed to mention the Telos Earring. That looks like a fantastic set for the Ullr PLD/NIN style. I'd still suggest keeping a paqichikaji ring or augmented cacoethic ring +1 handy as an accuracy swap, however, since you get less Archery skill from sub /NIN compared to /RNG, and also lose the accuracy bonus traits and Sharpshot JA. I think the negative Enmity is good to have as well in case you get a little too frisky with the ranged attacks.

Edit: Updated OP and took the liberty of including this set.

THIS is the kind of content I wanted to see. Thank you.

I'll be sure to shout for this for ambuscade. It's probably the best possible option.

I used to be a PLD like you but then I took an arrow to the knee... and ever since then I've made it my mission to give the arrow back.

" I AM THE BONE OF MY BONE ARROW.

DARKSTEEL IS MY BODY AND HOLY IS MY BLOOD.

I HAVE CREATED OVER A THOUSAND ARROWS.

UNKNOWN TO MONSTER.

NOR KNOWN TO RANGER.

HAVE WITHSTOOD PAIN TO CREATE MANY MUNITIONS

YET THOSE KNEES WILL NEVER HOLD ANYTHING.

SO AS I PRAY. . .

U N L I M I T E D E M P Y R E A L A R R O W!"

I laughed very hard, but this was insightful. Definitely helping me to make the most of my Ullr.
