FFXI Stat Calculator Favourite that *** :D Ah well the theory of the relationship between STR & attack that I've been going by for ages has been the old potato/potato sack theory which an old friend taught me. Not sure how accurate it is to actual in game calculation but it basically says:
STR = potato sack Atk = potatoes Doesn't do much good to have a gigantic sack and no potatoes to make any use of it. Nor does it help to have a tiny sack and 93058235098 potatoes going to waste. inb4testiclejokes Kujata.Argettio said: Sylph.Hitetsu said: Assumed value for base AGI as I have no idea.

Thanks for the info guys :D

Thanks for the info guys :D Most (but no all) high end single hit WS have a large attack and accuracy boost. Which is why SAM can get away with WS in pure STR builds. Also why assuming the samurai has a good TP build with proper additions of haste and necessary accuracy can full time meat for overall increase in dps during both WS & TP phases.
Tachi: Yukikaze, Gekko and Kasha.
Dynamis would be one of the very few situations I would /NIN on SAM, so pulling hate shouldn't be a bad thing. Don't forget too, that mobs shouldn't last long at all for a decent sized Dynamis LS. ~18 people in a zone and mobs should be dying every 30s ~ 1min max. Tachi: Kasha
Tachi: Gekko Tachi: Yukikaze 'The big 3 SAM WS' aka g/k/y (or some combination there of) Swapping has the advantage of specialization, which you probably already know by now. Really, there are some people who take this far and have macros for every little thing possible. I prefer to be minimalist with what I do. Keep it simple, keep it fun.
If you play on PC, Windower can make your life easier and make macros seem like much less of a hassle. As Raen said, Samurai/Ranger is polar, which will provide quite a problem should you avoid gear swaps. I believe if you're really apt to continue the road and truly enjoy playing, you should take the time to develop macros suited for the combination. As has already been suggested: A TP set and a Sidewinder/WS set would be a good minimum. (TP, WS, and a Standing set are all I ever use, personally) The suggested sets on Page 1(?) will provide you with the speed to build TP, as well as the accuracy and power to ensure each arrow you shoot goes unwasted. Edit: Yeah yeah, the Mithra gets credit, too :p Summary:
Q: Hi I want suggestions for easy to obtain hybrid AH gear for my sam/rng, because I dont like gear swaps. A: blah blah gearswap, blah blah more gearswap, blah blah GK WS blah blah more GK WS, blah blah sky gear, blah blah salvage gear, and more gearswap again. Almost looks like no one actually read the question before answering it. Except for maybe Zephyran who actually tries to help OP build a set based on what they said in their first post. But again, guess that's what makes this forum fun to read. "Liten to meeee!! I R best!! Although I havent learned to read yet" Siren.Agles said: (also id be willing to do 1 gear swop, so if you see something to swop please say) Why 1 swap Even a simple 5 line macro would allow 4 swaps.

If the OP wants to 'get away' with 1 gear set then they need to do SAM/WAR, but even that wouldn't be pretty.

I R best!! Although I havent learned to read yet" The irony is this: Zephy said: Ninja Edit: You guys don't even have SAM leveled... /facepalm. Now: Agles said: i never been a player thats big on equipment swopping and such. i know with SAM those seem to be bad words. but i make do and doing is well. anyhow, im wondering what equipment i should look at getting. i dont have alot of gil nor do i do much inturms of endgame other then dyna. so im pretty much looking at AH gear. also, have rng lvled to 69. so i could have some rng ear i could pull off it as well. Edit: Not once have I stated that I am the best. I've offered suggestions to a fellow Samurai on how to better themselves at the job they do, and in the most minimalist way. Siren.Agles said: ok, so far ear i got so far. whats your thoughts? (also id be willing to do 1 gear swop, so if you see something to swop please say) Weapon - Soboro Sub - Rose Strap Range - Shigeto Bow Ammo - Demon Head - O-hat Body - Hachiman Hand - Hachiman Legs - Siphahi Zerahs Feet - Hachiman Neck - Jagd Gorget Belt - Saotome Koshi-ate Back - Amenet Mantle Ear 1 - Beater's Earring Ear 2 - Vision Earring Ring - Behemoth Rings Also you can use the Amemet Mantle (NQ/HQ) for DNC as well. I'm not really sure if Commanders is any good, maybe for BLU, but not sure for DNC and the other jobs that can sport it. It's possible that the animation and attack round overlap, I occasionally get ~35 TP when I use GK ws's, and it shows in the log that I WS then hit, but the animation hasn't finished.

Your challenge should you choose to accept it is to build a hybrid gear set with no swaps which will make an effective SAM/RNG. If you can do this then you are much better than me. This is -almost- like asking how I'd make a hybrid DRK enfeebling magic build and weaponskill build or tp build without gear swapping. Not even worth thinking about unless you're prepared to swap... Siren.Agles said: after a number of sidewinders last night, i found myself with 60tp? why did i endup with all that tp if your saying 20ish. meditate was not active. so i dont know why. would i still be meleeing during the ws hitting? if soboro proct in that time. could answer why. but idk o.O Yeah, your Soboro is swinging during the WS's animation. Happens a lot if you /dnc too and use a Samba/Waltz, you'll swing while still dancing and hear the whole "Hiyah!" and see random numbers appear over the target's head, Lol. If you can't answer OP's question based on what they want, then don't answer?
I sure as hell can't but atleast I'm not throwing the whole "Gear swap or GTFO" crap at them when they made it clear already that they're not intrested in it. Meanwhile you're bashing the one guy that is actually trying to help the OP based on how they asked the question. |
