lol at arguement over whether smn can out DD pld

and lol at people calling Thorny of all people stupid, wow.
God quit riding Thorny's *** jesus christ.

acknowledging that an intelligent person is intelligent doesn't really qualify as riding their *** :/


It does when that person is their girlfriend.

Suppose that was a whoosh then? Don't think it's actually that far behind, tbh.
I'd say probably less dmg but better hate holding if that makes sense lol.

each attack round will recap VE, and attack rounds are shorter when not dual wielding

kinda irrelevant though, if someone else is riding cap constantly they've gotta be a melee as well so may as well let em pull it(mages don't do consistant steady damage, etc)

PS: CaptainCrunch is too abusive to be my girlfriend, he cuts up my mouth regularly ;-;

Delay/round is lower so you recap VE more frequently and thus are more likely to be the target of a mob's attacks despite generating less hate.

I see, 5 pages of ppl not liking PLD and yet posting in a thread for ppl that actually do. FU guys! =D
Anyway, since there aren't many situations where PLD would be an actual asset to the pt setup, I couldn't be arsed to worry about a good atma setup myself so far.
You can use all kinds of atma-setups on PLD, depending on what you are doing or try to do. So for skilling up or for mobs that mainly use phys attacks PDT atmas, like lion/heavens/earth wyrm, come to mind. Or for things where you are used to proc red/blue mainly (where PLD is still nice) you want to take those regain atmas you have available, like would be king/sea daughter/VV.
For other situations where you have to actually tank things with MDT or ele resist stuff, you can look those up on wiki easily but atma of the rescuer being 1 of the 3 atmas you can choose is generally a good thing to have for those situations.

If you have an almace or a fake one and gonna use it while tanking, you want to try to get a mix of offensive and defensive atmas, if offensive ones arent already good enough for this certain NM. So like RR/GH/Apoc (or switch to Omnipotent if it does help dmg more).

With all that being said, PLD and the use of atmas for PLD are very situational nowadays and always depend on what you are to do, what gear/weapons and also what other jobs you have available.

I hope that I could help you somehow.

Just bored, and figured I'd ask what others have found to be successful Atma combos for pld.

For solo and toying around I usually use RR, Minikin, and Apoc.

Anyone try stacking absorb/annul dmg atmas along with +2?

Its been a while,but I used Sanguine Scythe,Impregnable tower and mounted champion.Given im a taru i took IT for the extra hp boost more so than anything.I couldnt really find a decent substitute for it because i never bothered playing around with it much.I often contemplated swapping MC for stone god since maybe enmity major would be better than decreases enmity loss minor.

edit: thats not for solo.thats for tanking i listed mine
