If you can melee you should use a sword. Otherwise use vulcans + brave grip. The 10% crit bonus from brave will way beat anything else in that slot.

His point still stands though, 3.5% is going to add more damage than anything else in the grip slot.

It's crit damage, not chance of crit.

DWing isn't worth it, staff/grip or sword/shield only.

Is it 3.5%? Last time I really ever used cannonball was in 2005 on Cerb. I believe at the time testing showed brave grip to be 10% but no doubt its changed by now.

if you are sub thf you use staff and buy yoursef mythril plus 1 grip for the extra str and vit. If you are doing a build where you cant get behind a mob use a sword. If you use a staff and you miss sneak attack it will miss. Blue magic is based of the weapon in your main hands skill. Blu has 0 staff skill and it will whiff without sneak attack. Here is my set.

Why Mythril +1? Cannonball is basically the reason Brave Grip exists.

Your right these guys are crazy especially because we know BLu is back line main heal only...really no point in going /thf either should be subbing Whm or Sch with staff and mp gear and mind food...gosh noobs `_`

I've done more damage consistently with sword/shield than I did with Vulcan's/axe grip or Vulcan's/brave grip.

I prefer firmament +1 / acheron +1.

I'm just saying if you can melee the mob full time a job like samurai will do more damage than a blu. Particularly regarding deadplaything's idea of not subbing thf to do damage without SA.
