Common sense should tell you that you would be choosing path D on the legs and C on the boots.

Yoichi isn't worth it, even with:
-5/5 Kenda+1 for high racc
-Hybrid WSD/RACC Gear(Acro/Valor)/ETC)
-Snapshot/Rapidshot Acro


I made mine to play around with and it was very underwhelming.

i think he just wants a set bc he has the weapon and wants a reason to use it, probably

yes, I have yoichi done yet, but have atm only 1100 Racc (without buff and food) and 1150 R atk, for that, I'm a bit poor for endgame with my SAM for mob when I need to be away.

Just got back from a long hiatus, I was working up to get Koga but seeing how much things have changed. I guess I'll push upgrading my masamune instead for now.

in the mean time I have a few non-REM GK's... which one of these win out?

Tsurumaru vs Himetsuruichimonji (Str+10 acc+10 att+10 qa+3) vs Kurikaranotachi (acc+70 wsd+5% da+5%)

The Oboro GK from what ive read wins but the cost isnt worth it.
Ichigohitofuri from escha-ru'aun is the better choice if you can get one. Or Umaru from reisenjima.

I've done parts of Ou with Yoichi in order to keep the run smooth.

To push to 95%? There is an easy way of doing that, give the dd 3 songs and let rhe tank have 2 buffs absorbed, bam. Could give them honor march, victory march, minuet5 and send them in.

I think people are way too afraid to have a melee assist with the 5% push.

Ruins the fun factor of using Yoichi. Also, fullers, gardez, when weakened, etc. Very niche at best, but still a fun utility tool

So i have a question on the effect of the AF+3 hands that effect Rice balls. Can i get some clarification if anyone knows for sure.

Do you need them equipped when you eat the rice balls or can you equip the hands after you have eaten and still gain the effect? BG wiki states "Must remain equipped to retain this effect." A friend came and asked me because he wasn't sure with how that was worded if he needed them equipped first and then remain equipped after and told him i didn't have a clue since i don't play SAM at all. It would make most sense to me that you can equip them after eating the food and get the boost as long as the hands are currently equipped while having the food buff active but i could be wrong since i don't know. So here i am out of my own curiosity as well.

You don't need the hands equipped when you eat. The effect is up when you have the riceball effect and you are wearing the hands. It goes away if the hands are unequipped, but it comes back if you re-equip them.

Do you remember the old Opo-opo crown BRDs used to wear? It's just like that.

ItemSet 354851

This is your end goal for SAM as a baseline TP set. After that you can add MA,meva,acc sets etc.

It’s really not that bad to get and you can use NQ items as you build gil and resources.

What is your acc with this set? I’m seeing this set putting me about 1065 acc, that’s like 300 less than my drg and like 200 less than my war.

Sorry I misunderstood baseline TP set as like the most basic acceptable set.

also I'm fairly certain the Zanshin build isn't BIS for anything worth fighting.

I’m at work but it’s just below 1100.

thats seriously low, with my 1150ish acc current sam set i'm usually low on acc on relevant stuff.

Sorry i never updates it, i use r25 neck.

And nothing low about 1100, get more buffs :p.

I use 5 tp sets, 2 hybrids on SAM as needed. Pretty much copied Ejiin.

The set posted is ridiculously good, don’t knock it until you try it :)

1100 accuracy is not low. It just depends what buff you will get and obviously you need to eat sushi. It might be a little low for wave 3, especially for THFs, but that's why you have accuracy sets. There is no need to have 1365 accuracy in TP set, unless you lowman something without buffs/debuffs and also use attack food.

Are you trying to do vd with 3 song brd or something? Outside of wave 3 1080 is enough for everything.

Some pt likes to do single madrigal for vd or wave 3 boss, because they assumed every dd has 1150 base, I call it do it wrong ;<. Its more dps increase to tp in lowest acc possible, especially on wave 3 boss when half the dmg doesnt came from physical ws.

So yeah, hm+double madrigal all day everyday, 1080 or bust ;<

Three basic tiers of accuracy based on target content.

~1100 > Low tier Apex / Random stuff up to CL~130

1150~1200 > Mid tier, T4 HELMs / WoC / CL145~150 stuff, pretty much everything "end game".

1200~1250 > High tier, Dyna Wave3 THF NM's, or something very bad just happened and you got heavily debuffed.

Just switch out the body and legs for Kendatsuba +1 and your now at a mid acc set that's brutal.

Most DD's are expected to have around 1150~1200 accuracy in their TP sets for high end content. This number is important because all DD's get the same buffs and so we can normalize the accuracy requirements without nerfing everyone else. The BRD's aren't going to sing a special song for that one guy who decided to be at 1050 accuracy against a CL150 mob when everyone else is 1150~1200. The COR's aren't changing rolls, the GEO's aren't changing bubbles, all for one DD. DRK in it's lowest acc set with it's lowest acc weapon has around 1150 accuracy without hasso up, more common build is around 1180 accuracy. WAR and DRG are in the same situation with 1180~1220 being where you see most of their prime sets at.

Scaling fTP, fTP transfer, ability to crit, more hits, etc.

It's currently, with augmented koga, weaker than Drakesbane without Ryunohige.
