Victory Smite Build

I dont think it'd be that good regardless considering victory smite isnt elemental

wtf is going on

1) It's a .06 fTP increase instead of .1.
2) It doesn't even decompose skillchain elements.

It'll be good on something like T6, which you'll want Melee Gloves +2 for anyways.

"Ideally" you should be looking at something like these:

Accuracy capped, Impetus down:



Shura Zunari Kabuto with WS Damage +3%, Moonshade Earring with Attack/TP Bonus. When Impetus is up, switch to Tantra Cyclas +2. If your attack is capped, switch to Nefarious Collar (Gorget is pretty much the same). If it is still capped (you better have a lot of attack buffs or be fighting level 75 content), switch to Thew Bomblet. Thaumas > +3 > +2 > Hachiryu > Usukane >>>>>> Byakko's.

Accuracy uncapped, Impetus down:



Mainly for T6 Voidwatch, use pizza. Alternate Focus and Aggressor. Use Tantra Cyclas +2 when Impetus is up.

You're welcome to critique anything, these aren't end-all sets, but after seeing the garbage on the last page..

Tantra tathlum over thew if attack is still capped. Prosilio over bier+1 if attack isn't capped.

You should be able to still get away with Windbuffet if you have Thaumas. The way we fight T6, I don't alternate Focus/Aggressor though, but in the case you play the same way Justiciar's for neck obviously.

I always forget about Prosilio, probably because I keep neglecting to buy it. Prosilio > Windbuffet if you aren't capping attack, Beir +1 > Windbuffet if you are. In short, do not use Windbuffet.

Obviously, but attack can still cap. 2x attack to mob's def for one handers, 2.2x attack to mob's def for 2 handers.

Oh wow thanks for that I never would have known I'm so glad you were here to help I mean really nobody could have guessed this was the case and your contribution was so valuable and helpful.

Most situations where the two are relevant, Bier+1 is 0.005~0.01% better than Windbuffet.

In short, yes it's better but it's also inv-1. The more STR you get (Braver's, Boost-STR) the smaller the increase becomes.

I would be the first to argue 0.005% is better and should be worn but I simply don't have room and have to make sacrifices in some places. As Windbuffet is shared with Ukon and Amano, etc.

Edit: Damn that's some relevant information about attack not capping holy crap

What if all I fight is mobs with 498 defense?

How does Hachiryu Haramaki play into this, if at all?

Toci's typically outweighs it

Tantra +2 is better even with Impetus down.

Toci's > Tantra +2 >>> Hachiryu. If you're in Abyssea/Dynamis, even Kirin's Osode is better than Hachiryu.

Interesting to see what the augments will be. SE showed Double Attack+1 on the hands.

My Shura Haidate +1 have: DEX+2 and Shura Zunari Kabuto +1 has: Attack+4 Weapon Skill Damage+3%
This is my STR Build:

STR:69
DEX:9
ATT:79
ACC:27
DA:6%
TA:3%
This is my ACC Bulid:

STR:47
DEX:13
ATT:90
ACC:69
DA:12%
TA:3%
Upgrades I know of are Thaumas Kecks or better Shura Haidate +1 augments.

Rancorous Mantle + Justiciar's Torque > Rancor Collar + Atheling Mantle. Pyrosoul Ring > Rajas Ring. Use Light Gorget (maintaining Rancorous) if you need accuracy. Potestas Bomlet > Thew Bomblet. Toci's > Tantra +2 when Impetus is down.

And yeah, Thaumas are the best and are pretty simple to get now.

How are these against thaumus?

The abj is an easy drop if you do enough Morta, just gotta wait for crafters to get around to making them as far as I can tell.

Gear appearing out of nowhere. They're better by almost 1% (so you need HQ (though the stats on NQ are likely considerably worse if they follow the same pattern, just covering my bases because I don't know the name of the NQ <_<)). You'll want Thaumas for the accuracy, though.

Thanks

Ghillie Earring/+1 are both better than Aesir.

Ghiliie earring - Acc +2 Atk +8 Eva -5

Ghillie earring +1 - Acc +3 Atk +9 Eva -6

Explain, because I had a hard time in neo-nyzul. It being my first time.

Most are using x2 SCH for Embrava with AF3+2 hands 25 minutes of good times. Other 4 DD's are up to you.

Also why use a Light Gorget? I heard they are horrible for VS.

It's actually second best to Nefarious Collar if you are capped on attack.

SCH SCH DDx4. Competent people. Stopper removed the awful luck factor.

Should be getting more than 25 minutes of Embrava. Cast it when you pop Tabula Rasa, then again with Perpetuance as close as you dare to TR wearing. Should be able to keep it up for basically the entire run even if you recast at two minutes in on your 2hr.
