Hello All,

I have been chipping away at SMN for a year or so (#part-time-player-goals) and have finally finished the base 75 Nirvana.. Now onto trials...

I was purusing the web and haven't found a WS set yet posted for Garland if Bliss. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to show what they use, or, point me in the right direction if I missed a post somewhere. Any help would be appreciated!

Part of the reason I'm asking is the irritating trials where you have to finish the mob off with GoB if anyone is wondering.

This is my set:

https://www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/381845

Should work well for your trials.

With a R15 Nirvana you should be getting around 20k unresisted Garland's with this.

Of course Orpheus sash isn't needed for trials, so can replace with an eschan stone or something, you'll still do way more than enough damage, same goes for the Epaminondas's Ring.

For WS trials stack the ever living hell out of MaB damage. I think this gimp *** set is what I used more recently on my main to help my alts and it worked well (granted a fully upgraded Nirvana will have the WS bonuses, note: that doesn't work for the first trial, only the kill trials), that and a buttload of regain atma (get them if you don't have them, it's worth the few minutes it takes, especially sea daughter.

Eyeroll that you wish you thought of that?! Also, if you're in abyssea, atma of the beyond adds like 30% dmg to a light based attack

From my testing, cohort cloak +1 R15 lost out against Cath palug crown and almaric body +1.

I mean this is overkill for your purpose but this is my current set for the rare times I want to actually do damage with garland of bliss (usually want to do minimal damage to let other smns also get aftermaths up)
not all nyame is done augmenting yet so this set may change some more
Code
        ammo		=	"Pemphredo Tathlum",
        head		=	"C. Palug Crown",
        body		=	"Nyame Mail",
        hands		=	"Amalric Gages +1",
        legs		=	"Nyame Flanchard",
        feet		=	"Amalric Nails +1",
        neck		=	"Baetyl Pendant",
        waist		=	"Orpheus's Sash",
        left_ear	=	"Friomisi Earring",
        right_ear	=	"Malignance Earring",
        left_ring	=	"Epaminondas's Ring",
        right_ring	=	"Weather. Ring +1",
        back		=	{ name="Campestres's Cape", augments={'MND+20','Mag. Acc+20 /Mag. Dmg.+20','MND+10','Weapon skill damage +10%',}


but yeah especially in abyssea you shouldn't need anything close to this the light affinity atma especially should make it very easy, may also want to use fotia for chance of tp return. Also if you have a lot of cruor from back in the day you can pull a large group of mobs and pop a brew to spam ws's faster and not even have to worry about gear.

OK.. Allow me to just eyeroll then; the ring and atma are better advice than anything in your set lol. Got to admit I enjoyed moldavite earring in there though.

This is new to me - I do have a lot of cruor from way back when.

Just curious how one goes about doing this, and how efficient it is (waiting on repops etc?)

Very much appreciated the responses as well. Thanks to the community.

You can do it solo with regen atmas or a dt set, pull around 30 mobs, they'll re pop in around 5 mins.

Or can get a buddy to pull a bunch for you instead, will be much faster because they can start their next pull while you go re purchase your next brew.

The 1st set of mobs once killed are abit slower to repop. But after that they repop much faster. You want to shoot for a mob group of 25+ tho.

Arcana - Misareaux Coast #6, plenty of bombs & detectors
Plantoids - Misareaux Coast #8 Mandies or Altep #6 mandies
Vermin - Misareaux Coast #0 Spiders
Lizards - Misareaux Coast #7-8 All the lizards

Depends on mobgroup size and running, but around 30 ws per brew. And with gearswap dont even need to engage.

Well first off the logical choice for any sane person of adoulin rongs wouldn't be that one so it's effects are moot.

Secondly the math doesn't work out. If one has it though: sure great, go for it.


It's worth noting that a lot of completed GoB sets may focus on MaCCinstead of MaB, to extend the debuff duration. (this part is directed at OP).

Sounds like weatherspoon ring would be great for it, extra MACC.

Also weatherspoon ring is a really good ring for a number of jobs not sure why you hate it? Sure there are others rings that are great, but don't act like there is only one choice of ring.

Mentioning a 1/12 ring that somebody isn't likely to have beyond "this is best in slot, but" is asinine at best. But I digress.

Like Bippin pointed out Weatherspoon has macc. I also completely disagree on it being a weird or bad choice for SoA ring.
What are other good SoA rings?
Haverton is super niche for MNK mainly
Janniston is good for healing, but nothing gamebreaking
Orvail is great, but only if you craft on main char
Shneddick is awesome inventory saver and for some jobs only 18% movement speed option
Thurandaut makes building sets easier for pup, but its not essential imo
Vocane is mainly niche for knockback, since we now has easy access to tons of great DT pieces and R15 Gelationous Ring on top of Defending Ring.
Karieyh is ok, but for almost any WS it's just side grade option to Niqqmadu, Regal, Beithir, Epaminondas, R15 Metamorph etc.

Now Weatherspoon is great for Fast Cast and Quick Cast on jobs with low access to both and this mix is for example really good for something like /nin shadows. Still the main advantage of the ring is that Light Affinity. It's a significant boost to Trueflight, Seraph Blade, Flash Nova, Primal Rend, Garland of Bliss and probably also Tachi: Koki (tho it hasn't been discussed in context of that WS yet I think). Also BLU light nukes, Light Helix, Lux Lunge/Swipe, Holy etc.

The only rings I would consider getting over Weatherspoon is Shneddick or Orvail.

Ok then I disagree on it being non logical choice for any sane person. Its one of the most logical choices given equipment option we have now and SoA rings impact on specific builds. Details in my previous comment.

So glad after reading your other responses.. Oh what ever shall I do without your elite gear advice!

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about but FYI, weatherspoon is one of the the most common ring choices because it is best in slot for several sets, as shared by SimonSes. I suggest you have some level of acceptable knowledge/counter argument before trying to tell someone they are wrong in the future, on this forum as well as in life.
