I would have checked at least two pages back before I asked how far back. That is beyond lazy. Oh look at that, two pages. But obviously that's party gear, not solo

You were warned of the laziness! I actually am looking for group sets, mostly, so thank you

I'm interested in an updated Evisceration set. Pretty nice to use at 1000tp unstacked.

I haven't noticed a difference in my total coin count one to the other. One thing to note with jugo, it halves the potency of drain samba because its added effect takes precedence over drain samba. I thought I remembered reading a long time ago that haste samba from /DNC wasn't worth it in solo situations

Dw earrings and DW ranged for that content. Also DW legs if you have the gifts.
Can change hands as you won't need the acc and can macro TH.
Reforged AF1 or some multi attack ones.
White damage matters more on weak content due to a lot of your WS damage being wasted due to low HP thresholds of mobs.

Also, patentia sash got me thinking. Iuitl legs have 5stp on them. 2 DA or 2 crit on those might spreadsheet well.

Iuitl Legs are pretty great, especially if you are doing the whole save TP to 1750 strategy. I'm not sure if the new offhand has changed anything but before last patch they were BIS for a lot of things.

Moonshade is a ws earring.

To be fair, Panta, Brutal usually winds up next to Moonshade in WS for the lack of a better option.
Though it winds up being better for multihit WSs whose ƒTP carries.

Though for something like Rudra's, iirc, other ear should be +DEX earring.

Brutal's real benefit for WSing (and it's marginal at best) is the Store TP. But it's only 1 so....
The other ear is a nebulous zone for WSs. (That aren't Rudra's Storm or Tachi: Fudo.)

Anyone know the math behind Rudra's Storm, aside from the multipliers?

Curious as to why it randomly does pathetic damage (i.e. ~325 damage on an incredibly easy prey).

You missed your first hit but happened to double attack and you hit it with that. 1% chance even with capped accuracy that this will happen.

You don't need to double attack for that to happen- typically it just means that only the offhand hit connected.

2 questions:
1) Can someone repost the PDT and MDT sets they display empty to me (the more current ones posted by Valli and Josiah).

No idea what they posted but these are the sets I find to be optimum.
24% MDT with sheltered ring shell.
ItemSet 318471

MDT no shell.
ItemSet 332662

50% PDT
ItemSet 332685

48% PDT Acc (also easier to obtain than above)
ItemSet 332686
Edit : Not making qaaxo pdt leg just for an acc pdt macro but it is indeed an option. I used to use 2x 2 PDT black earrings and PDT Qaaxo body but since emet those are no longer needed to cap, although they could be good still in PDT if swapping repulse to canny.

For the pdt sets, you're missing Qaaxo legs path C.

For the mdt sets, ***, now I have to go get wayfarer's? Didn't even notice THF on it.

Is Mandau completely dead/outclassed now?

Also, for lower content (i.e. Dynamis/Salvage) what would be the ideal main/offhand combination, barring RME?

Currently using Izhi/Jugo+1, but wondering if...

a) Augmented Atoyac would be better in either slot for this content, and...

b) if Sandung is worth picking up and using in these situations, or if the extra TH+1 is negligible, especially with the loss in DPS.
