Glad this is the end of VW, I don't even RNG to VW anymore tbh, bullets up to 200k/stack here.
I wouldn't spend money on arma99 for solely RNG anyway, future content will favor Anni, more so because it'll be the return of Coronach, much like with OdinV2. Not discrediting arma though, it's definately worth having I just don't find it worth upgrading to 99 for the sole sake of RNG.
Ouch. Ingots are like 60kish here, only 30k if you can buy the ores (10k ea.). I recommend farming the new adamantoise mobs; they drop adaman ores pretty often.

Oh... so go for an Anni then. I'd rather spam mobs for 30 days than boringly camp a fukton of mobs haha. Even though Arm is prolly quicker to get in the LR haha
What I did is made both at the same time. Make armageddon because it very easy to make and its great when magic damage is needed and gives you more utility over all as a player because you can play as a COR now without being useless between rolls. Just leave it at 85. Make annihilator for rng and get it to at least 95, you wont be disappointed :D
624.2775 ranged attack with velocity shot boost (1.15 * 1.05 caban)
1.9091 max cRatio
109.5 base damage
209.047 max damage
261.3088 max damage with piercing bonus
Still inconclusive as before, but the numbers fit better. 261 is the highest damage I was able to achieve on G. Colibri:
So the boost seems to be separate from velocity shot. You still need velocity shot to be active of course, but it's a separate boost of another 5% rather than just increasing the velocity shot boost to 20%. It's basically like having ranged attack +5% on the body, which is pretty nice.
Again, I still need to do more precise testing, but I just wanted to clarify my original post where I assumed it was a 15%->20% boost.
okay so i may have passed this post so sorry if it is repeat, but if i dont have relic or arm what gun should i use? I was thinking Magian str or agi, prob str since i could use that as a taru o.o

Those have been bugging me for a while so I just did the math comparing scout's, thaumas, and leoht gloves. Scout's and leoht are almost exactly the same (was literally 5 damage difference using greater colibri as a reference; scout's won), while thaumas were pretty far behind. I'm assuming full buffs of velocity shot, berserk, red curry, scout's caban, etc. so the ranged attack plays a much bigger role. Without those buffs, thaumas should win. It's gonna be one of those situations where berserk up = scout's, berserk down = thaumas. I'm glad I did the math because I've been using thaumas gloves for everything.
Anyway, in conclusion, don't waste your points on these gloves unless you want them for COR. Scout's are much easier to come by.
Edit: oh in answer to your question zouave's beret is a great idle piece.
So i'm confused with a lot of people saying 4/5 thaumas is inferior and i see a lot of people just posting the 4/5 thaumas. Can't find a spreadsheet so i'm at a loss right now.

Reading through, trying to get my ranger up to snuff as I'm leaning very heavily toward making an Annihilator. Or, I guess, more specifically, my ranger macros as the majority of the gear is already in my posession.
I need to get spellcast updated and a good .xml for pre/post-shot setups, so not even going into that quite yet but as far as Lans Stand is concerned, this is my current set:

I would personally use terebellum mantle over Sylvan unless you're relying on that Store TP for an X hit.
There seems to be much consternation over this. Trying to eyeball this thread I've seen it both ways and no one seems to be coming down decisively either way.
I also wonder on agility earring/rings vs. strength earring/rings for Legion-type content. Agility modifier for Last Stand is huge, it's true, but so are those mobs.
