PUP is probably the most well designed class in the game, I hope it gets more and more spotlight : D.
I don't know about best designed but my goodness PUP is fun.

I like the way Spharai looks, can we focus MNK balance around that.
Bear Paws ftw when it comes to H2H

They can both be good, let's just leave the porcupine fists out of this discussion.

Show even the slightest bit of proof of these claims and I might take you seriously. Trust tank during the trust campaign and just spam T2/T3 while wearing reforged body for MP recycle. Outside of the campaign trusts will die to Astral Flow sometimes although it is still possible to win as Mana Wall gives you 5 additional minutes even if they go down (-97.5% DT...) It takes a long time so I wouldn't exactly say it's good gil but it's still doable. Again though this is a stupid metric to use. It's fairly dumb to expect the same level of solo performance from every job. Offline

It takes a long time so I wouldn't exactly say it's good gil but it's still doable. Again though this is a stupid metric to use. It's fairly dumb to expect the same level of solo performance from every job. Apologies if I was unclear. I was directing the desire for evidence to Verda, not you. I 100% know BLM can do those, but his claim of BLU doing 4 VD runs in 11 minutes was wildly inaccurate and exaggerated. After doing a few Leviathans on VD, solo will range from 5-7 mins on BLU. Was going with acc food, but the last run I forgot to use it and had no acc issues so next time will swap to RCB. Really depends on how annoying it is being, spamming Poisonga, and if you want to move out of range for each Grand Fall. Positioning the trusts so they only get hit by Tidal Wave is extremely easy, so you don't have to worry about Waterja.
Based on that, it is easily soloable by a few jobs. Since it poses no real danger to you if you're moving out of range of Grand Fall. Subbing ninja to avoid water V/flood II should make it possible on a lot of jobs. Even without OP trusts campaign. Just was pleased to see with the AoE damage change that Apururu wasn't killed by Tidal Wave lol
my blu takes less time to gear up because i put all the gear in my wardrobes NERF BLU!!!1

Wouldn't be surprised if he has everything since he is everything.
I should point out that Bolstered Idris Frailty with Light shot dia 2 floors DEF or really close to it so you don't need Attack buffs until Bolster wears.

It might be better to have the GEO doing Bolster use Indi-STR and just Entrust Indi-Fury. +90 STR from that coupled with Boost-STR from a WHM for another +25 gives +115 STR. That's pretty substantial for Resolution. Helps out Savage Blade, Stardiver and pretty much anything a DRK will use. Yea DRK, everytime I think about it my RUN says "On your left".
Odin.Roundelk said: » Also for WoC and T4 Melee clears I have never switched out of my normal TP set which on BLU DRK and RUN are 1140+ outside easha no food/buffs. Seriously? I'm just over 1200 outside Escha no food/buffs, interesting. Verda said: » Sylph.Jeanpaul said: » Challenge accepted. I disagree, it's a very good game, but I think Donkey Kong is the best game ever.

Donkey Kong SUCKS Sylph.Dravidian said: » I disagree, it's a very good game, but I think Donkey Kong is the best game ever. [expand dong] Yes. I have 3 TP sets normal which is 1140, then Mid ACC. which is 1200-1210 then full blown ACC. which is 1300. With the update my 3rd set became useless as I used that for when I am on mid accuracy and accuracy buffs drops. You never needed more than 1140-50 Accuracy for normal TP gear.

None of my normal TP gear is slotted for Accuracy, but I do wonder if maybe swapping some Adhemar to path B would be more worthwhile now if requirements are so low. Not really sure on that since I dualbox an Idris GEO and therefore more attack is rarely something I need to slot for. So do you know the accuracy value you're at during WoC? I only know that WoC evasion is around 1831, I will let you know when we do it again.

Super accuracy sets are really more for when buffs aren't there for whatever reason. We did WoC with 5 last night and I had to use my 1300 set, but we only had SV songs and an entrusted Torpor post-bracelets for buffs.
edit: I end up having 1895 accuracy, 1875 on WS, +50 during bracelets I know
Base Acc w/Food & Vorseals: 1407(main)/1417~(offhand) Buffs: Idris Bolster Precsion (200) x2 +5 Mads Crooked Hunters 11 (80) Boost Dex25 (~19) NQ Bolstered Torpor (-150 Evasion) Edit: It might of been +6 Mads I forgot to ask if the BRD alt had JSE cape another 6 acc. I checked my acc a few fights but never recorded since my roll wasn't always an 11. But we always had the above buffs each fight. Edit 2: I forgot SV and don't know if the BRD had 5 Mad Merits either. If he did its another +10 acc then. So if he had both the merits and the cap: 1864 + -150 Torpor. Offline

I think the best buff to RDM would be making Distract, Frazzle and Addle all non-elemental spells or make them ignore special resistances.
