Hi all,

Posted all sets in the general, but thought I'd post here for discussion. Nothing appears to really stand out too much to me outside of macro pieces.

Probably the body will be great for impetus plus att/acc similar near to top skrmish augments.

Body is a winner.

Legs should beat Taeon? Better TP gain, and a good chunk of acc/atk. The body is a win, seconded. The hands are the highest accuracy piece available to monk? But the thing is, monk has access to a lot of accuracy gear already, so I don't know how useful they'll be.

Body is the only good piece, and only when impetus is up, rest is macro stuff at best.

Taeon legs completely crap on everything with 4%ta 20acc/atk

Legs:
Taeon
DEF:112 HP+47 STR+27 VIT+14 AGI+18 INT+28 MND+15 CHR+9 Accuracy+7 Ranged Accuracy+7 Evasion+53 Magic Evasion+69 "Magic Def. Bonus"+5 Haste+6% "Triple Attack"+2%
(ideal augment: 2ta, 20acc/atk, 7str/dex)

Bhikku Hose +1: DEF:110 HP+47 STR+35 VIT+14 AGI+21 INT+26 MND+20 CHR+7 Accuracy+23 Attack+23 Evasion+36 Magic Evasion+69 “Magic Def. Bonus”+4 Haste+7% “Kick Attacks”+20 “Store TP”+8 Set: Augments “Kick Attacks”

Net: -1 str, +7 dex, +4 acc, -3 atk, +16 eva, +1 mdef, -1 haste, +4% ta, -8 STP, -20 kick attacks

So basically if you augment your taeon, 4% ta, 4 acc, 7 dex > 8 stp 3 atk 20 kick attack

Perfect Taeon Legs are going to be better, and they can be an awesome WS piece as well.
Still, Bhikku+1 legs don't look that bad. If you feel you're not lucky with random stuff, Bhikku could be an inferior but valid alternative.
Needs to be how big the difference is, need a spreadsheet for that.

A bit surprised the feet get "only" +55, considering that sokushitsu give 85.
Actually I wonder... is that really attack+55 during kick procs, or base damage +55?


Body is awesome.
Hands are a better acc piece than Hesychast+1 but not sure if worth bothering with it.

bhikku hose will prob be > taeon (needs verification).

hands are ok if you think all the accuracy on taeon is not enough somehow (1050~1100 accuracy prebuff, does any mob need that much accuracy?).

For some reason i thought kick attacks +20 was base dmg not rate.

Plugged into spread sheet, tantra +4 > taeon for legs.
Tantra +4 > all for impetus up
Taeon gloves > tantra+4 (any mob you do that needs that much acc, you will get more than enough acc from other sources, aka brd/geo/food)

It's on a kick proc - as if you were attacking with a weapon with a base dmg of 55 on your feet.

Think you misunderstood what I meant Slugman ;)
Feet equipment enhancing KA normally have a bonus that gets added straight to the damage of your kick attacks (which normally is just the damage of your h2h skill without considering the Mainhand weapon damage).
Sokushitsu Sune-ate add +85, considering up to level 99 Tantra Gaiters +2 were the best in that regard, I was surprised to see bhikku gaiters +1 give "only" +55, so given the strange description I wondered: "is that +55 a +55 damage like on all other feet equipment, or is it different and it's a +55 attack to kick attacks instead?"

Just plugged in legs vs Taeon and I get Set DPS: Taeon 1385.697 vs Bhikku+1 1397.607
Idk how to add Footwork+10 for the boots vs Taeon but It's def worth looking into imo.

Edit: Impetus up Tantra119 body/Taeon legs acc/att20, str/dex7, ta2
Impetus down Tantra119 legs/Taeon Body acc/att20, str/dex7, ta2

Depends on Impetus up or down

Well the factor no one is sure of or considering is that the set augment might be more portent than before.

I understood, just didn't convey it well I guess. It's dmg like others (soku, dune boots, w/e) not atk+ on a kick atk. Same as the tantra set that proceeded it.

No it's not. It's a bonus for when you activate the Footwork JA, and since we don't, it's useless atm.


@Slugman
How can you be sure, did you try?
While it's not the first time, it's strange they used a different description wording for these feet.

So I'm tryin to update my spreadsheet with the new gear, anyone know if the set bonus on the original set is part of the formula, and/or how I would add it?

Edit: nvm, it figures I would find it right after I post lol..

Anyone got a full set to test the kick attack augment yet?

Makes me wonder if they're trying to make footwork viable.

@Noxzema
Motenten's Spreadsheet already has a function to take that into account.
It's basically a %. Whenever a Kick Attack procs, there is a % chance (variable according to how many pieces u're equipping) that a second kick attack will proc right after.


@Aureleus
Given how the augment on the original piece was a straight X% attack bonus when under the effect of Footwork, I assume the reforged piece just has a 1/2% more to that bonus. Nothing more, nothing less.

Impetus down Tantra119 legs/Taeon Body acc/att20, str/dex7, ta2

Depends on Impetus up or down

So Impetus UP: Bhikku Body, Taeon Legs/Feet (20/acc/att, 2 TA on both)?
Impetus Down: Whatever Body, Bhikku Legs/Soku Feet?

EDIT: Also, is Bhikku Crown +1 a precast piece or must be left on for Perfect Counter DMG +?

Pretty confident it has to be worn to gain the effect.
The AF3+2 worked like that so I don't see the reforged version changing that.

Yea it does. It gets the effect retroactively.

My question is, that's the sets you use based on Impetus being up?

Curious about the feet slot in both situations.
