Which are better? Apparently I'm a retard for saying Perle are better.

I'd probably say Perle since you get attack from STR too. If it's a full-perle job then of course perle. If you're doing a crit build (which isn't really used anymore) I'd say Aurum.

If you're capping accuracy, Perle hands down.

It's essentially 5STR vs 5Attack, and since 5STR gives ~2/3 Attack its more 5STR vs 2 Atk as you said.

I won't go into a huge HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE and futile argument about "Well if ur cappin them accuries u culd switch ouwt armers for more armors and FEWD AND BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH".

Bottom line: Perle > Aurum if Capped Accuracy.

Perle has 3DEX as well.

Well tbh the guy was wearing Toreador's Ring too and if I was gonna lose any accuracy it would be changing that to Blitz Ring first, but with everyone going around touting "You don't need acc for anything anymore" and if you look at the screenshot we are talking capped Accuracy I thought it was obvious.

Homam feet would be better than both Perle feet and Aurum feet. (if we're looking at them individually. If you're using full Perle set, well the answer is obviously Perle feet)

That being said,

Between Perle feet and Aurum feet, if accuracy is capped...

They both have DEX+3, Aurum has attack+5, but Perle has STR+5. The STR from Perle also gives 3 attack (For 2handers), and the STR+5 also gives at least 1 fSTR.

Perle feet is better.

As I thought, so clearly I haven't been away from the game for too long to know that 5 STR beats 2 Attack and he is indeed HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE?

Well, not 100%. If you're running 2x DD atmas in Abyssea, odds are you'll be capping fSTR even during TP phase. If that's the case, 2 attack is better because the STR is only contributing attack at that point. Given that Abyssea = FFXI more or less at this point, it's at least worth keeping in mind.

Whether or not that was what they had in mind when making that statement, I don't know. Outside Abyssea, you're correct.

If you read the screenshot he is saying 2 Attack is better than 5 STR in general, not for any situation, he's saying he wouldn't use them because they have enmity on lol

I saw Oblit posting in a thread claiming 60%+ crit rate with one of the Atmas though, would be interested in seeing what the real values were but if it's true it might be the 2nd best Atma along with Eve's

That's strange. When I quote Starr or Night, I can see the img tags and the link for the screenshot, but the actual screenshot isn't showing up on my screen either.

Maybe screenshots aren't working here right now.

Edit: ehh, never mind... I can see the screenshot in Starr's last post now.

"my DRK destroys yours"

"your blist"

lol...

They're still kind of ***. They would let you 5-hit a 528 scythe if you had goading belt and some other gear. I just don't think it would it be worth it.

Actually, Solanis is right...if assuming capped accuracy, Ace's Sabatons are better than the other haste feet options for DRK(assuming you aren't using full perle).

Ace's sabatons would be better than dusk +1 feet. I believe that was the point.

Also, Ace's Sabatons are great if needed for an X-hit build as well.

Aurum if you need it for xhit, or that 2% Haste body/Askar.

^ Sounds right.

Also, that Temarli Body used in the set posted above + Blitz ring, should put you at gear haste cap.

Not gonna argue 8 attack vs 6 accuracy. Generally its more favorable to get the accuracy. I just hope to god I dont see tards trying to 5 hit every scythe now.
