So I just recently got access to sea and was wondering if it's worth it to get AF+1 feet to tp in or stay with dusk feet. Keep in mind I use hecatomb leggings for ws's. Or is there something else AF+1 is good for?

**Yes I know aurum are the best, but that's not the question here.**

I didn't think war af or af+1 was any good, but I sometimes see ppl TP'ing in af or af+1 feet. Just checking if I was missing something or it was just them. Thanks lol!

I got my DA capped anyway.

People that still use af/+1 are doing it wrong.

@ 94% hitrate or lower, bounding boots are better than AF+1. They are truly trash.

Aurum are very easy to get so I suggest you work towards them while using dusk in the meantime. Shout groups for Tier 1-3 usually work well since they're quite easy to kill or you can just get a mage to do Cheese and Iriz for you and shout for a group to do Gears. Even a DRK can easily kill Iriz with any subjob.

I've actually tried twice to get aurum feet. Kiting those gears for like 1.5hrs each time and no drop... Kind of put that on back burner since then. All they had to do was drop and would have been mine :( Drop rates, curse you!

I've actually only tried this twice myself, but I find that straight tanking makes it go a lot faster... IF your tanks are competent(recommend 2). 1.5 hours does seem to be a bit long x-x.... alot of blms helps too.

Drop rate is another thing though

Dusk for sure..AF is worthless and pretty much not even worth the time to get them.

Side Note: If you wanna try for a better and Free alternative look at Aurum feet not to bad to get and getting to AG is pretty easy and can be done easily low-manned.

Edit: dammit to the ppl that posted faster than me about Aurum.

I need to farm some more gilz and get ppl to do the dirty work for me, lol! I've tried twice on my own, time to let the merc's do what they do best. :P

If I get them then I can get rid of my dusk feet. Hands are another story though. I need homam for pld, but what hands can replace dusk for war?

I see ppl arguing over askar not being good for war. Would love to get rid of all my dusk gear so I don't have to have a separate macro just to run around in.

Edit: Hence the reason I wear Adaman Mufflers & hecatomb feet to walk in. E hands make nice town pieces, lol!

Dusk +1 Replace Dusk for WAR.
Askar are ew, only use for enmity actions. 5 dex does not make up for a loss of 1% Haste, just as Walahra > Askar(most of the time, if not all).

Ah forgot about that, that should be the ONLY case it wins though.
(unless perhaps it's your only piece of haste gear and no haste buffs? ionno prolly not)
