Are there any testimony of the new bc solo on vd?

I got very close just charging in on DRG but I got hit hard at like 24% in my Jump set and passed away. Val tanked the adds pretty effectively which was surprising!

Regardless of the set bonus, 5% haste on the ammo slot has "uses".

Odd the ammo is "All Jobs", but the weapons are job-specific. This was kind of mentioned earlier in the thread but still very weird. The jobs spread on all these weapons don't make a ton of sense. Perhaps this was just wave one of weapons and they are planning to release another set of weapons pairing with the ammo's set bonus, when the next HTBF or two is added. 3 hats/legs, x amount of weapons per HTBF (there's 4 this update). Looking into this a bit further (and assuming they do release weapons for all jobs eventually):

MNK/PUP/DRK/DNC/SAM/RNG/COR/BLU/SMN/RUN did not see a weapon this update.

RDM/WAR/PLD got two weapons (neither of the WAR or PLD weapons are their primary weapon). SCH is also on a very weird weapon, Dagger.

DRG's weapon is awkward, so I would expect a Polearm.

I could see a staff that DRG, SMN, BLM, WHM, MNK, SCH are able to equip.

NIN could offhand the Knife already, so I wouldn't necessarily expect a Katana. I would expect to see a Hand-to-Hand, a Sword that at least BLU could use, and another Dagger with DNC on it (still not sure why they were left off, maybe a typo? anyone with Dagger can confirm?).

Scythe/Great Sword/Great Axe/Great Katana for the respective jobs

Not sure what would they would do for RNG and COR, probably a Marksmanship (Archery for RNG) set bonus with a new weapon.

Rng could use a new main weapon for pewpewing (its actual purpose, not meleeing /nin with naeg/KC). Last I checked, perun is still BIS?

trying to engage about not getting anything new and you were pedantic about it

what irritates me is when someone engages in the post but another person will swoop in to give their negative commentary but will proceed pages later to say similar things...

You sound real upset about nothing. You were complaining about RNG not getting anything, and I said the ammo wouldn't make sense in it's current state, because RNG wouldn't use an ammo piece with wsd+10%. It obviously needs a ranged weapon to make it work.

I didn't "say the same thing" pages later, did you read any of what I wrote? I said they would have to add a ranged weapon to make a comparable set bonus tied to a weapon. Even outlined they would have to put them on a new weapon to fit that style of set bonus weapon+ammo(ranged slot) pairing.

You ignored all of this (along with the 5 or so pages of people arguing about ***that has nothing to do with July Version Update, didn't say a single word about that derail) to express your disapproval with my post.

Not sure what you got going on, but you need to R-E-L-A-X

we just haven't got anything new in awhile is my point.

I actually feel like they accidentally left RNG off of the Limbus dagger. It weirdly has Ranged Accuracy on it, but none of the jobs natively use Ranged attacks. Oddly enough, the Limbus sword (Saber) has COR on it for MAB, but there is no ranged accuracy on it there. You normally would see ranged stats on weapons for jobs that can use ranged (see any ninja katana or gear), because its part of their way of making everyone "Accurate" (acc on everything in equal amounts). Gleti's/Crepuscular Knife is one of the few exceptions to this. So I can't understand how they came up with those stats, and why RNG isn't on the dagger.

I chimmes in about not getting anything new

They technically got a new bow from Limbus recently, and COR did not get a new ranged weapon. You can argue the sword is way more impactful than the bow, but SE catered to RNG's shooting ability with Bow for some reason that update. RNG can also use the grip, if you want to use a staff for shooting.

So discussing points and clarifying is arguing now? I engaged your point about RNG not getting anything in my above posts, there was nothing to be upset about...If I was arguing, why would I engage to that degree? (You actually started bringing up something from page 2 to argue, not me)

Man, you be good bruh.
