Would any one mind posting your DD setup? I heard it's more common in abyssea now. Just wondering what bard's are using.

I'm on my phone so I can't really link, but on my profile I have my TP setup. Might be a bit out of date though. I'd have to put together an Evisceration set later. If no one answers this in a better fashion I'll be back in a few hours~

Thanks Row. I reposted with new stuff. Kila is STR, should be main-handed. As far as the Haste stuff goes, there might be a better re-arrangement option nowadays, but I haven't really put the time to look into it.

OaT weapon might be useful depending on your atma selection as well.

Hope this helps.

DDBRD is no worse than any other low-tier job, they're just more useful~

Quick upgrades to my set would be some sort of attack mantle and Agasaya's Collar. Can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

Without looking it up, I believe there is a harp with haste on it, isn't there?

There is, angel lyre at the time I made my set I decided it wasn't useful with what I had. Might be now, dunno.

You should probably use a bullwhip too spice. I can help you get one if you don't already have.

*edit* she won't have dusk +1

She's hard capped on gear haste, would need to rearrange haste elsewhere to benefit from it. Off the top of my head that + Zelus Tiara makes 31% (30 with NQ Dusk for the OP), but there's really no particularly effective place to drop haste given BRD's lack of DA/STP gear and the fact that this would mostly be used in situations where attack and accuracy are easily capped fulltime via Stalwart's. Best I can come up with (granted I'm not too familiar with BRD gear) is AF2 body, keeping you at 27/26% haste.

Ninian is capped on haste using 2 dusk +1 pieces, Spicer most likely is not using +1's. A bard who doesn't have another DD job or want's to accomodate slots differently could swap belts and the lyre if they so choose.

BRD doesn't get much in the way of gear, so I'm thinking Relic body's the only reasonable swap. Can BRD wear twilight belt? If so that's attack/da but you're losing a decent bit of STP so iono. :(

Why have BRD /whm in exp parties when it can dish out 2k weaponskills with a pretty good dot? :p
Its basicly just like how COR used to be in merit-parties.
Can /WHM and be lazy, or use a dd sub and deal dmg and do it pretty well.

They should man up and get +1s! Totally kidding. But yeah other haste pieces I can think of if you don't have stuff is sha'ir manteel, angel lyre and bullwhip belt.

RR/GnarledHorn/AlphaOmega => Apocalypse I would say is your best bet, possibly RR/DarkDepths/AlphaOmega => Apocalypse but *** salvage.

dood.. there is a reason why a BRD can use so much of the same DD gear as a THF... with the right set up I can't imagin why their eviscration WSs would even be all that bad with the right atmas in abyssea.

I'd love to try mine out infact. 90THF 90DNC personally. I can't wait to see how it fares.
