                I guess I should just stack evasion then and forget shadows all together.  Come on brds, bring back double mambo. 
Double SV mambo is actually OP for Malignance jobs, but that's whole another story lol

What is the point of Chakra potency +50% when it heals a monk for full HP with the correct gear? This would have been a much cooler option if they made it AOE and also healed MP, like the Chakra version from FFT

                The idea of locking unique weapons behind a lottery just isnt worse than the idea of ROTATING what weapons that gonna be locked behind the current lottery.

                And the flametongue obviously op for blu but probably doesn't cut it for war over naegling or dualwielding over blurred shield +1. I wouldn't call it OP for BLU.  There are better offhand options than Flametongue.
 Maybe offhand RDM, but honestly, I don't play RDM.
 
Flametongue is a toy.  It wouldn't improve any main-hand damage, unless you really need the ilvl accuracy bonus.  Only example I can think of would be W3 Dynamis.
 
Then, and dependent on 2 things (Enfire damage and STR mod transferring from offhand), it might be better than other offhand options for those specific setups. 
Obviously I meant for offhand, even if the STR wsdmg doesn't transfer (I believe the INT bonus on icebrand did from last bonanza) name me a better offhand sword for blu with the 5pdl. 1000 TP Bonus sword is the best offhand for BLU and RDM who are spamming Savage Blade.

But what if you get throat stabbed and inner strength/mantra are both up at the same time???  Premium Heart 2good

Well according to sheet, only like 10% better for BLU if attack is capped. Not sure for RDM but maybe even less than 10%, since RDM has Temper II.

"Chakra" potency +50% 
Counter: Reduces "Chakra" cast time by 1 second 
What is the point of Chakra potency +50% when it heals a monk for full HP with the correct gear? This would have been a much cooler option if they made it AOE and also healed MP, like the Chakra version from FFT 
But what if you get throat stabbed and inner strength/mantra are both up at the same time???  Premium Heart 2good  
Chakra can fully heal an Inner Strength/Mantra Monk with both pieces of enhancing gear. I have never seen it not fully restore your full health. The only time that has happened was when I didn't have 1 or both pieces of gear. Chakra+50 is literally the dumbest stat ever.
edit: I just went out and tested it. It actually doesn't full heal Mantra+Inner Strength at 6500 HP. It did 4561 with just body and hands (was naked in other spots)

                These really are, largely, the most creative items (not just weapons) that they've ever added to this game. There's no way they'll remain bonanza only forever.

                The idea of locking unique weapons behind a lottery just isnt worse than the idea of ROTATING what weapons that gonna be locked behind the current lottery. 
Almost as dumb an idea as not allowing same account mules who win rank 1 prizes to send the weapons to the main toon...

                And the flametongue obviously op for blu but probably doesn't cut it for war over naegling or dualwielding over blurred shield +1. I wouldn't call it OP for BLU.  There are better offhand options than Flametongue.
 Maybe offhand RDM, but honestly, I don't play RDM.
 
Flametongue is a toy.  It wouldn't improve any main-hand damage, unless you really need the ilvl accuracy bonus.  Only example I can think of would be W3 Dynamis.
 
Then, and dependent on 2 things (Enfire damage and STR mod transferring from offhand), it might be better than other offhand options for those specific setups. 
Obviously I meant for offhand, even if the STR wsdmg doesn't transfer (I believe the INT bonus on icebrand did from last bonanza) name me a better offhand sword for blu with the 5pdl. 1000 TP Bonus sword is the best offhand for BLU and RDM who are spamming Savage Blade.
 
Hands down better. 
Content where you don't need acc on offhand isn't worth talking about, because you can do it with anything.

Then winning one from Bonanza and having other from AVR would probably mess with code that let you switch one to another for some fee/delay/etc. XD

Its not that you dont need accuracy, but its that you have accuracy from Malignance, food, traits, spells, buffs.
 
You could switch few pieces and food if you wouldn't need acc to cap hit rate on Thibron, but those gains would probably still wont be enough to close the gap between Flametongue and Thibron. It could be close tho.

What is the point of Chakra potency +50% when it heals a monk for full HP with the correct gear? This would have been a much cooler option if they made it AOE and also healed MP, like the Chakra version from FFT 
But what if you get throat stabbed and inner strength/mantra are both up at the same time???  Premium Heart 2good  
Chakra can fully heal an Inner Strength/Mantra Monk with both pieces of enhancing gear. I have never seen it not fully restore your full health. The only time that has happened was when I didn't have 1 or both pieces of gear. Chakra+50 is literally the dumbest stat ever.
edit: I just went out and tested it. It actually doesn't full heal Mantra+Inner Strength at 6500 HP. It did 4561 with just body and hands (was naked in other spots)

Sadly only 5% of that is actually going to be used as the cap on Cure Pot II is +30% and Majesty gives PLD +25%. 
I thought Majesty was a separate modifier apart from Cure Potency and Cure Potency II, boooo, lol.

Sagitta path C exists you know.
 Is that a weapon tied behind a lottery?  Sorry, not getting any buzz here                                      
                
             
                        
         
             
    
    
        
        Hey guys found out I won rank 1 but not I'm at an impasse. From all the rank 1 weapons, what do you think is worth picking? The one's the stand out to me most (since I play RDM and WHM the most) is Ice Brand for RDM INT debuffs, also BLU nukes and Sage's Staff for (lol WHM Nuking) and style lock....
