Can anyone recommend some gear (or point me to an existing thread) that suggests equipment weaponskill macros for Requiescat and/or Knights of Round? I understand soil gorget/belt is nice for Req because of the modifier carrying through each hit - but other than that I don't know a good overall damage gear setup for it. I'd suspect twilight helm/body would work well for req too. I'd also be curious to know if anyone has any KotR gear macro's as well (I've just recently obtained Excalibur) - perhaps there's not much point in building a DD setup for KotR, but instead just use in situations where the regen or damage type might benefit?

From what I have "heard" which isn't a real lot to go on. Better off sticking to Kotr with a STR build than req for the most part. But that isn't end all be all, its just me asking a friend who has it and the impression I received. It shouldn't be hard to figure out a str build though there's lots of options available to pld one of the easiest to mind is hecatomb.

Req does awesome with a sick mnd build. I can fire out way better numbers with req on rdm than I can on pld. KoR is junk on rdm cause of the complete lack of str gear. Still in the process of making a decent mnd build for pld

Req is def >KoTR, PLD/RDM has high mnd to start with. MND/Atk mod i use, Aqua sachet, Twilight helm, soil gorget, phorcys korazzin and mitts, Aquasoul ring, athling mantle, soil belt, Ogiers leggings/breeches. PS2 so i cant swap every slot out for 100% perfection but i believe best set would be
Ammo - Aqua sachet
Head - Drachenhorn
Neck - sea gorget
L.ear - Neptunes pearl
R.ear - Centaurus earing(Atk+10)
Body - Phorcys
Hands - Phorcys
L/R. ring - Aquasoul x2 or 1 and the ring off Arch apocalyptic beast(MND+5 sword skill+5)
Back - Vassal mantle?
waist - Ele belt(i use soil)
Legs - Ogiers
Feet - Dilarams solerets.

Thanks for this. A lot of these I'm already using - however I notice you mention Twilighthelm above and Drachen below - which would you go for? I have t.helm but no drachen so that's an easy pick in the short term..

For ear combos which two would you use? Kokou's Brutal Moonshade? Also, isn't there a better belt?
