So, how do we fix Rana?

You take it back to the place you found it, where balrahns ghost or whatever hangs out, you /kneel at 12:01 in game and you toss it with hopes that the ghost will return some of the Alex back ;).

I can't fault Koga's survival niche. When I made it, it was a great DD weapon. As it stands today I mostly solo (Tri-Box) when I'm on so I ride Seigan and Third Eye, in which case its amazing. For what I do, Third Eye is still up when I reapply.

I do have HMP and Rifts for Masa but the Empy list is long...

Rana sucks, that's factual.

During the day, as Taint said Cessance. Could do mache earring +1 if you've got Utu Grip for potentially one more base damage.

Dusk to Dawn you'd use lugra earring +1. It's a beast.

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

It's currently, with augmented koga, weaker than Drakesbane without Ryunohige.
It's weaker than so many things, it'd be easier to list what's weaker than it at this point.

I hope they update it one day, as it is it feels like it stayed at 75 while everything else moved on.

It's C.
SB and STP win. Mind you this piece is for a low acc set.

You ideally want a path A and a path C.

Path C when you acc can handle it, max buffs or low lvl content, path A for your middle tier ACC sets.

So I was finally allowed to come SAM to Dyna D (Jeuno) and I was pretty worried about survival, accuracy needs and food, so much that I ended up going way above what was really needed, or so it felt.

I used this as a base TP set:

Asura.Sirtaint said: »
ItemSet 361567

DA Meva cape.

I don't have Telos, replaced it with Dignitary's. The same way, used Regal instead of Niqmaddu.
Rest was 1:1.

I didn't have much problems though I had to resort to Sublime Sushi for wave 2 boss and wave 3 Volte/boss (Rabbit pie otherwise).

For WS, I found myself quite ***. I didn't have access to the same buffs listed on the previous pages so I patched stuff together but in the end, I may have ruined my damage in favor of acc a bit too much as a result.

What would be a decent WS set to use when receiving 1 Madrigal and non Idris Torpor? I doubt I'll get a second Madrigal and/or Hunter's roll.

Is there a ressource explaining certain things that are good to know when playing SAM on these targets? I kind of felt like I was missing something here and there.

Your BRDs should be compensating and give you guys another Madrigal. If your hitrate is suffering, chances are your other DDs are as well.

I was the only melee in the whole dyna. We usually manaburn, we tried to use RNGs and me as SAM this time.

I could ask for one more Madrigal, I think I'd get it.

That run was a mess, but you survived well enough. I don't see any reason why we can't throw more DD at it and do better next time.

The problem lies with the buffs, then. You can only do so much to supplement your own accuracy.

On wave 3, I only ever have issues with ninja/thief targets, without food ā€” only because the setup my group typically does is melee focused, so we have appropriate buffs (bard, cor, torpor if necessary).

For most of the run I also swap between the set Taint posted and the baseline zanhasso set depending on my tsrget (hybrid if I'm taking damage).

edit: typo'd "for" ā†’ cor

I see, it makes sense.

I just wanted to make sure that I was doing the most I could on my side.

Also just to make sure, I checked BG but I didn't find much, which food do you typically use in Dyna D as SAM (or melee in general I guess)? I had Sublime sushi and Rabbit pie but maybe there are better options nowadays (I'm a few years late on food).

Sublime sushi since you're capping attack in most scenarios.
I think Pork Cutlet Rice Bowl is okay for attack if you don't want to use red curry buns, but this is a heavily unlikely scenario.

Generally speaking though, your go-to options are sushi or the aoe foods (repast, stewpots).

I like riverfin soup. It has a nice mix (80 Acc/Att), but it's kind of hard to come by.

Yeah those food are expensive/rare as *** here and seeing how death may happen beyond my will *cough*, more common stuff is more practical, at least for now.

hey everyone,
i looked back a few pages but i didn't see any jinpu sets.

so anyone got BIS ish set for jinpu?

I have yet to secure the ring but this is what I've put together

ItemSet 361683

Second ring that I'm currently using because I can't tell what is adding more benefit, STR or MAB is a demon ring.


What was your back augment on this. Did you go with STR+20?30?+ M.Dmg 20?30? + WSD or DA? Did you stick with the standard STR/Acc/WSD back augments?

What are good alternatives for those rings?

What kind of numbers do you see on Jinpu from you setup?

I use the SAM guide on BG frequently. Same with the DRG one. Both written well and plainly. Not sure why other people don't just check there, it has everything.
