It was best in slot on THF at the time, so understandable. Skadi wasn't best in slot, but it was a lot easier to acquire if you were already spamming Salvage anyway and had THF as a job. It wasn't homam in most situations? I never really payed attention to THF back then, just TH4 and get off.
Depends on your setup. If you had vbelt/dusk+1 Skadi was best, if not pretty sure it was Homam. Probably why I always thought homam then, since I didn't expect +1 dusk on most people back then.
/nod, yeah.

Nah, COR doesn't really have enough native MP (even with cruor buffs and refresh Atmas) to survive without all the extra MP boosts in gear. And if they're a Galka or an Elvaan, we don't even want to talk about how screwed they are.

Legs/Hands were useful for COR..... >_>;
For CORs who were meleeing? >_>
Tell me what was better than Skadi legs for meleeing that actually existed. Oh wait, you can't. Barbarossa pants didn't exist, and ACP legs didn't exist until much later. So yes. Skadi Legs.
Hands were good for QD.
Was an honest question. The only COR I know fulltimed Denali legs.

I was being sarcastic. I still don't see why people bother with MP stuff on Cor. I use Ugg. Pendant for Quick Draw and WSs so I rarely even care for MP. Should have mages or a Dnc to heal in any situation besides solo or anything you don't need help with. Not really trying to put down /Mage on Cor but I was never a fan of curing on Cor. Only reason I ever /Rdm is for the MAB Bonus JT.

Don't forget to +2 your AF3 hands and have Winning Streak merit 5/5, so you can afk longer ^^;

Well, I'm Ninian, Dancer extraordinaire. When I'm not busy sulking about how much my job sucks and how easy XI has become, I troll people on XIAH and occasionally toss out useful information.
I'm like Draylo but cuter, less annoying, more witty and don't call everyone an ignorant toad.
Also not a BLU. Forgot that important tidbit.

Buffs without merit and AF3 hands=5 min long
Buffs with merit and AF3 hands= 7 min 20 sec long
7 min 20 sec - 5 min= 2 min 20 sec, so you get to afk 2 min 20 sec more, isn't it nice? =D

And since I have no corsair merits, I won't have to drop anything to get them. So my time afk getting merits isn't wasted in the first place having to drop some for new ones to save more time.

But this is where you're assuming I'm using Thunderbolt, when I'd really be using Hidden Power Ice(66)! D:<
I think I could hit you. D:<
