Heyo! Im curious what sorts of strategies have settled as ideal for pop farming Abyssea nowadays, especially now that mastery levels have changed what weaponskills some jobs can access.
Specifically I see a few conditions that need to be satisfied:
1. You need as many red procs as possible, close to 100% (I believe the only two real contenders for this atm are War and Nin right?)
2. You need ideally both a solid physical and magical AoE "cleave" skill, to maximize ability to cleave enemies while not gaining any light
3. You need a non garbage magic WS that you can use to quickly farm your amber light up
I was, at the time, using War for this, as it hit most red procs but I could also use Aeolian Edge or Fell Cleave to farm boxes.
However, I believe Nin comes out marginally ahead with 1? 2? additional red procs it can do.
But that was back before we had Mastery levels and could get our sub job higher. Has this changed things and enabled warrior to get another red proc? Or does nin still perform better?
Also, Id suppose that 18% movespeed gear is also a pretty critical factor...
Edit: Looking at it, it seems that its viable for warrior to get all the weaponskills just using +skill gear, though great katana requires you to get Agelast Torque or Moepapa Annulet if you dont have the mastery levels for nin subjob levels yet
