Red curry bun seems to be the favourite.
I've started using Hydra Koftes & just red curry now, normally 3 hour foods, but you can increase the duration to 6 hours using sigil or Sanction provided you're in the area at the time of use.

Question about Rancor Collar. Im sure I dont have max hate, will killing any tonberrys work (too weak) or do they need to give exp or something?
Edit: Also, do you have to be the one to kill or would it count if you were in a party with others?

Inside Abyssea
Outside
Thinking maybe Iga Tekko +2 for Outside hands unless I get some good augment on Seiryu's Kotes. Thoughts?

Depends, if your dDex isnt capped then you'll be getting 2.5% crit rate from iga tekko +2.
If dDex is capped then Seiryu's kote with any additional crit rate are better.

Cuchulain's belt > shadowbelt outside, centaurus earring > drone earring outside.
Anguinus belt > that belt you're using inside, centaurus > drone earring inside too. If using GH(you should be cause of the agi bonus anyways..) soil gorget or hope torque > rancor collar inside. Rajas ring > 7 agi ring outside if you need the dex to cap ddex(you probably do). If your seiryu's don't have 3% crit, use iga tekko +2.
As mithra I have capped ddex outside in TP/WS gear on everything besides VT mobs, vw mobs, and some jailers/sky gods(probably not sure on this) and the new dynamis NM's(again, not sure on this, but probably don't have capped ddex on them).

I'm curious which of the sea jailers/sky gods you cap ddex on since you said "some"

Also, when did your stance on GH vs SS change? You came into the DNC forums preaching SS over GH because it was "proven to be the best" for your Kannagi NIN.

So you're saying you have capped ddex on some jailers/gods, but you don't know which ones.... then how do you know you have capped ddex?

I know I have capped ddex because someone told me how much dex I need to cap it on mobs below VT, but I don't know the agi values of sky gods and jailers.
I don't understand the point of the question..

They're just poking fun at how you say you have capped dDEX on MOST mobs, if you can't even tell or don't know.

Red Curry Bun for pretty much everything except Voidwatch, where you'd be eating pizza/sushi instead.

Yeah attack food is the best option on most things. There's some mobs that I have really bad acc vs like bennu/shaula where I need sushi. I don't carry pizza around so I haven't checked if pizza fixes that problem, and I haven't tried out using the 40 acc/evas atma over apoc to see if that helps either, but generally red curry > yellow curry = coruel sub > mithkabob.
Outside there's some very evasive mobs like VW mobs, which I have no experience with, and new dynamis NM's/VT mobs which I have no experience with on NIN. When doing harder dynamis things I play my RDM. So probably need sushi/pizza there, or change to another job :(

Cuchulain's belt > shadowbelt outside, situational
Quote: centaurus earring > drone earring outside. also situational but usually true
Quote: Anguinus belt > that belt you're using inside, see above
Quote: centaurus > drone earring inside too.
Quote: If using GH(you should be cause of the agi bonus anyways..) soil gorget or hope torque > rancor collar inside. Often false. RR/GH/merits/innate Hi bonus puts you at 90% critrate. Seiryu's Kote put you at up to 93%, so you still have up to 7% you can fill somewhere... overTPing is likely to fill ~1%, but that still leaves plenty of room for Rancor Collar. I only swap out Rancor if I'm WSing in Iga Ningi +2 (highly evasive NMs) or have a critrate buff such as Innin active.
Quote: As mithra I have capped ddex outside in TP/WS gear on everything besides VT mobs, vw mobs, and some jailers/sky gods(probably not sure on this) and the new dynamis NM's(again, not sure on this, but probably don't have capped ddex on them). What value are you assuming for capped dDEX, if you don't mind me asking?

91 + 52 I think, I have more dex than that now though so I don't remember the original number.

That's not even capped for certain DC mobs, let alone EM/T.
Quote: centaurus > drone earring inside too.  I always thought centaurus was better than agi earrings. lol Broken record in that it's yet another situational thing. If cRatio is capped Centaurus obviously isn't doing anything for you.

Are you sure? How much dex do you need to cap on T dynamis mobs then? I asked on BG and was told 91 + 52 would cap me. I don't fight anything over EP/DC ever on NIN outside abyssea though.

MMJ Lurkers and Infiltrators in Bhaflau Thickets have 96 AGI. While it's true that THF and NIN have some of the highest AGI values in the game (three-way tie for second with DNC, RNG having the highest), Mamools only have C rank AGI. It largely depends on the mob family's AGI rank, but assuming C rank again you should be right around the cap for low T DRK/DRG/SAM/SCH/SMN with 143 DEX, leaving you uncapped on any T+ RNG/THF/NIN/DNC/BLM/COR/PUP/WAR and adding more jobs as mob level increases.

Is there some sort of chart giving mob families stats for their jobs?

There used to be a small one for various TOAU-era merit mobs but I don't remember where. Beyond that, I don't think so. In theory you should be able to reverse-engineer STR/DEX/VIT/AGI if you can find INT/MND/CHR (easy as BLU), but I don't think there's been any comprehensive effort to gather data.

Ahhh fair enough, so for newer content it's more on the lines of trial and error for things like voidwatch etc.
