Quetzalcoatl.Scruffyballs said: »It works, but you'd have to Cata in 24 STP which probably makes the build not worth it overall. I think that's what Taint was getting at. Not sure why it would matter for a pre aftermath set.
Matters for a few reasons.
1. You use any other WS (proc or what have you)
2. PreAM sets aren't as important, so a small sacrafise Phorcys > Ares's isn't going to change much and will benefit you more then hinder you.
3. Sometimes AM falls off between mobs.

Going to be finishing Apoc on Saturday, so I am working on putting together sets in advance. Are there any improvements I can make? I do not have any Neo-Salvage/Limbus gear yet.
This is what I have for Drk/Sam. It appears to pull ahead of Rose Strap combinations that I could come up with. Assuming not capped magic haste.
Drk/Sam no Aftermath
Drk/Sam Aftermath
For /War, I am torn between Sword Strap and Pole Grip. Sword Strap seems to be pulling ahead in any situation (except capped magic haste/LR up).

6-Hit /WAR
Must WS in Ogiers/Rajas/Brutal.
Single miss tolerant.
Short ~0.4% haste.
Worth it?

Question and advice please:
Drk/sam
(Legs) Whirlwind seem fit here as phorcy doesnt offer much that isnt covered under these conditions. Haste/att/Stp.
AfterMath- LR- Embrava up:
Aftermath - LR - Embrava down:
Thanks in advance all!

Worth it? This is essentially just the /notSAM 5-hit OAT build, including WSing in Ogier hands (Rose strap is what's missing). 7-hit to 6-hit isn't the same gain as 6- to 5-, and Rag benefits more from cycle reduction via multihit pieces due to crit rate and 2.5x procs, whereas OAT runs the fastest plausible 5-hit and has native multihit to make this build shine.
Also involves a food switch for accuracy critical situations, to Pizza because it runs more attack under buffs, that Ragnarok doesn't really benefit from.
tl;dr You're nerfing the TP phase damage of the weapon with the best TP phase in the game to hitbuild the same weapon with the worst delay for hitbuilding in the game.

Assumes Marches/haste?
What are you using for capped Magic/LR/AM?
What about Embrava? (while it last I guess lol)
AM down set looks 5 stp high. If you WSed AM is up, so don't need to account for WS STP deficiencies.
I'm trying to convince myself to save 2-300mil on Huginn since they don't seem worth it at all on DRK.

3da from Phorcys legs can be worked into just about every DRK build and 3da > 10crit damage.
Huginn are boss for sure but way less so for DRK then other jobs with DRKs ability to shuffle haste around for QA/TA/DA esp with Apoc.

Just playing with the Calc DRK is such a messed up job lol. Legend's builds are very solid, but can be beat with a number of different combos depending on mob lvl.

Did you take into account the +10 critical hit damage from the Huginn gambieras? You want messed up? Try gearing a Liberator Drk with all the options out there. The worst part is that I don't have enough inventory slots for all of it. I can either bring my melee gear or my casting gear. With the expansion coming out there's going to be more gear. I guess too much of something is not a good thing.

Hopefully with the expansion coming out, they will either, A) Give us more inventory slots, or B) Have gear that will bring the best of both worlds from casting/melee.
I have the same issues with not having enough room on my ninja.

Yes Please for gear that will be multi-use.
Another note - kinda craft related. Most of the new honor augment gear is great. I mean, who wouldn't want most of it? What I do not understand is the price for the -1's which are the only ones that can be Augmented correct? Lets take the Hexed Gambieras -1.
Earth Crystal
Ormolu Ingot x2
Aht Urhgan Brass Ingot
Black Sollerets
Pelt of Dawon
All in all 10mil +/-
Knowing the T1 HQ window is obtainable and comparing to other synths of this quality being done with all the mojo(New Moon, Face SE, Darksday, spin around in 3 circle and pray to altana, etc. ), we are looking at a 10% or better HQ rate, 100M. This is a huge investment and the supply is materials is limited, I know. Are they really worth 250M??? More then a relic/Empy to 99, some prices near a mythic. I highly think not for most things.
With that said, I find it even more O.o (confused eyes) when everyone is posting these things in item sets across every job forum. JUst ranting I guess I am sorry.

Really Legend :p
Here is the mid-lvl sleeper item Triplus Subligar. Can even use Letalis to offset the -ACC.

Won't know anything until the Expansion is Downloaded on the 26th. Valk body has limited use at the moment I'd save the Abj.

Use aces body for resolution as well since its got att and more str, use avant gauntlets+1 for the hands and Mekira-oto/+1. The only other upgrade is NNI gear but if that is too tough then you can always try salvage II. Ares+1 hands and legs will see you over till you get the NNI wins.

Updated WS Set!
Thanks for the quick response! Should I hold to something like Windbuffet Belt or that's really not worthy until I get NNI gear?

Not unless you have Apoc or have capped magic haste and LR up.
Lookin for some suggestions on TP sets for DRK w/ and without Embrava up.
