Someone once said flame belt works for it is this true or not? On wiki SS is listed under the belt itself but the belt isn't listed on the ws page. Also guess same for gorget are they good or not for the ws?
Shijin Spiral has skillchain properties of Fusion (which is fire+light) and Reverberation (water). Therefore any of fire, light or water gorgets and belts will work with it.
Anyone have any suggestions on my Spiral Set? When I use the mnk spreadsheet the gorget / belt always wins vs. prosilio & justiciar's (changing nothing else in my set and keeping tp sets the same) except when I have 0 JAs active and no cor / brd buffs. Am I doing something wrong? (I'm new to using the spreadsheets so I could be...)
I'm curious how much ppl do on dolls in Abyssea. I don't have much else to compare it to atm. Here are my 2 item sets. I can't decide which is better. Open to suggestions. I'm doing between 1600-3500. Seems really inconsistant for me.
No point in using Ocelomeh at all, thurandaut will always be a better option(maybe different if you were using Toci's to but not sure).
Honestly never used shijin much in abyssea since I had ascetic's, so I'm not sure which would be the better option between thurandaut and mustela. Certainly don't need the acc from thurandaut but that is 8 more dex.
I'm a returning player after 2 years and I'm kind of confused in how to put together a build for Shijin. The old "stack as much accuracy as you can" that I remember for MNK WSs seems to be dead.
Firstly, can SS double attack and crit?
Secondly, when does +DEX beat +attack? Here are some gear toss-ups I'm having regarding this and would like to know which route I should take
Neck: Moepapa Medal vs. Justiciar's Torque (or is a Flame Gorget better here?)
Body: Shura Togi vs. Kirin's Osode
Earring: Ghillie +1 vs. Justiciar's Earring
Ring: Tyrant's Ring vs. Thundersoul Ring
Belt: Prosilio Belt vs. Artful Belt +1
Feet: Scopuli Nails vs. Rager Ledelsen
I'm completely confused on whether to go DEX or Attack.
If anyone has some other suggestions I can grab off the AH or are easy to obtain, I'm all ears. I just got my first Tantra +1 piece and got a long ways ahead of me for all this new gear out now.
