Leveling Blu

1st. I doubt if there is a 200+ mp differance between tp and damage set.

2nd. A good Blu know's how to manage MP with B.Charge now a 7 tick refresh with gear,spell,trait and Npc...Who is running out of MP unless your spaming.

3.If your going to cast in a TP set what is the point of having a DD set for CA only? lol That's GIMP.

1) Let him post his sets, and we'll judge. 2) I don't give a damn if as a BLU we can perpetuate our MP, that's not the point we're talking about. Stop trying to change it to make yourself look better. 3) Learn to read: we're talking 1-3 spells only. If you're going to try and look like the big ***here, maybe you should remember the golden rule of this game: Situational ***Is Situational.

Well if its so-called "Situational" then post the situtation 1st the make the statement until then we are all speaking in "General" ....just sayin 8)

don't be afriad to cast in your tp gear if your mp is full enough where switching will lose you alot of mp. I think my full dmg set to my tp set is a good 200+ mp difference. That's 3 more dmg spells. Sure they might be somewhat gimped ones but still don't like losing that much

Read what Dasva said:

lol I don't think he realizes that you guys are talking about 1-3 FREE spells that would otherwise NOT be cast.

If your saying bang out 3 free spells then after that go back to casting in DD set then yeah I do agree but if your saying its cool to cast in just tp set then switch to DD set when doing CA then your crazy.

Personally I cast my haste, refresh, stoneskin etc with the MP I will lose in swapping from set to set.. That way I don't lose anything, and don't have to cast in TP set like a gimp.

1. Some tp peices: Walmart head 30, homam hands 20, homam legs 26, homam feet 31, mirage body 20, Some dmg peices magus body 12, taru feet -35. So yeah my bad it's only 150 mp loss. 2. Any good blu mage knows how to use more mp when they have it and conserve or semi conserve when they don't. 3. Seperate maccros are your friend. Like I said the first post cast in tp gear only when you are near full and it would result in the loss of lots of mp that will now litterally do nothing 4. People like you are part of the reason people think blu sucks. Waste mp like it's water then start "conserving" ie doing little besides headbutt and CA spells. Just so you don't look "gimp" on a couple of spells. Yeah I spam ***all the time. Before I even got battery charge. And yeah I often take blu into short fights or ones where I can get mp back one way or another. Doing this makes a rediculous diffference in my over all dps. Mind you I still switch out a few peices like body neck back etc so my spells aren't that gimp. And if I was really really really motivated I could make spellcast put in more and more peices in as my mp got lower... Also mind you this was back at 75 mostly. Now I can /rdm and convert which will not only put me at full more often but would actually give me more than full so might even consider throwing some actual mp gear into it so I'll still be full in tp set after the cures

Seems strange that you say that now after making a "point" about not wanting to convert DMG > MP (Through Gear Mods)

If your going to make initial casts on the mob would you not think its better to enfeeble the mob instead of cast multi-hit (Big 3) which will in fact feed decent amounts of TP to the enemy without good DMG results to make it valid?

I could be wrong but I don't really see anything Anbu said that would make me think he was "gimp?"

I don't really think you are soloing or low-manning endurance Mobs given this statement. Sounds like campaign or low man "burn" events but w/e. If you were spamming on an HNM mob or High Tier NM...I hope somebody would tell you to stop feeding it TP.

Mind you I still switch out a few peices like body neck back etc so my spells aren't that gimp. And if I was really really really motivated I could make spellcast put in more and more peices in as my mp got lower...

Changing a few armor pieces for any big spells...are not going to yield big enough effects to overcome magic tier breaks...(much better dmg). I could be wrong.

Also mind you this was back at 75 mostly. Now I can /rdm and convert which will not only put me at full more often but would actually give me more than full so might even consider throwing some actual mp gear into it so I'll still be full in tp set after the cures

It depends I still often have to /nin if there are no competent healers or tanks or I am effectively the tank. Though Sanguine blade helps out alot on that too[/quote[quote=Ramuh.Dasva]It depends I still often have to /nin if there are no competent healers or tanks or I am effectively the tank.

Common misconception. TP only affects spells under the effect of Chain affinity. Don't be sitting with 300% tp thinking your spells are doing more damage. WS as appropriate.

Jesus people love bitching about gear. Anyway... I want to question this, Since alot of spells say 'varry with tp'. Like bludgeon, 'Accuracy varries with tp' Or DS says 'Critical varries with tp'. Also on a few pages on wiki it shows modifiers for 0% tp, 100%, 200%, 300% and 2hr.(Main one that comes to mind, I know theres 2-3 of them though, is helldive since I was just looking at it).

He's right, TP only affects under CA. The 0 TP one is the one to go by if CA isn't up.

this is only while chain affinity is active. it then takes on the traits of a weapon skill.

Dancing Edge : Accuracy Varies With TP
Flat Blade : Chance To Stun Varies With TP

i thought the 0 TP one was the effect of CA+Spell @ 0 TP, not while CA was down....

i could be wrong on that one though
