Yes, you can put all of the augment gear on the job file itself; however when you go to play other jobs you will also have to put it in that file. Any update you do on augment gear will have to be on every file if that is the case.

If you use the additional file it is just name_globals.lua

Awesome, adding this to resources.

edit: replaced where "Spellcast" would be with the Gearswap LUA and Global File that Pertalee provided.

As to answer the questions about Gearsets:
I'm going to resume with getting them ready to put up, but as a disclaimer, they may not be perfect. Some adjusting for the sets will still need to be done, and any Suggestions to any tweaks would highly be appreciated in this matter.

Don't know if anyone tested, but Erra Pendant is a straight +5% in the potency category for absorbs.

So, with Liberator and all of the armor enhancing potency/duration, we can get +92 for a stat for >5 minutes, longer than the recast of Nether Void and Dark Seal.

When is it calculated? the description is different from other absorb gear so I wasnt sure. +92 is pretty damn big and if you dont need the HP boost turns lib into our highest acc weapon.

It's calculated in the same term as Pavor Gauntlets/Chuparossa Mantle (which is a separate step from Liberator's potency).

On strong monsters, I've been swapping to Liberator to do a Nether Void/Dark Seal absorb, and then swapping back to Ragnarok afterwards. Having +32 to a stat (the boost Liberator gives to a maxed out absorb) is worth losing your TP once every five minutes. It feels kind of sad to treat Liberator as a macro piece, though.

This is how I use it also and why resolution can get such a boost in alliance zerg set ups. Highest I have had was 579 STR

Better to use and further increase Rags utility, 89 STR on a high acc weapon in the key here

Looks great so far! Possible to get subtext for desired augments? Obviously the Reis gear is near impossible for preferred but good to gauge of when you get good vs complete crap augments.

High-End Magic Sets Complete!

May add some miscellaneous sets like an enfeebling build if I feel like it.

I have all the Melee sets I've gathered posted for now, contributions and suggestions are highly welcome.

Gold Moogle Belt and Despair Hands can certainly work...the concern with earrings is, you have to be sure you're topped off on HP to get the full potency. Gorney Legs are Surpassed by Brontes.

Oh. I didn't think there were augments for Coalition +1 gear. I'll have to consider that, then...

Also Erra Pendant~ seems like it would be ok to use over Incanter's, and dont know if you noticed you put a NQ Carmine for the Drain/Aspir set~

Ah, that's an Omen item. I should probably make subtext for that Pendant, because that won't be an item everyone will able to to acquire easily, much like the Niqmaddu Ring.

And yes, I'll have to fix that with Carmine.

Some of those sets look familiar.... Sorry haven't been updating sets on here when I update my lua.

Fixed dread spikes by the way. pretty sure that is max possible.
Fixed Drain/aspir
Made Absorb stat set 349219 (absorb tp would only change hands to reforge and and kishar ring to 2nd stikini)


HQ is obviously preferred but not always available.

HQ FC set has Prolix Ring listed over Weatherspoon, which is 5% FC. I'm guessing not a lot of DRK use this ring so maybe that's why it was left off.

It also has Eschite Cuisses (5% FC) listed over Enif (8%). I'm guessing the latter exists because enif isn't ilvl, but it would be good to note that enif is BIS when it comes to FC.

Weatherspoon is an SoA ring, and I'm basically trying to be as general as possible when it comes to ring Options. I'll mention it in the subtext.

Totally forgot about Enif being 8%, too.

Can we change the grip on the reso max? I think the new max reso set takes on the Omen Grip, Utu.

edit: this set will net more hp, hp% of mask will beat gav helm if you have 2,880 hp with mask on. (This set should give you about 2,835-2,850 depending on race, making this set higher hp if you have drain 2 or 3 up or if you are in escha)

dualism +1 = bloodbead for hp

Speaking of HP+%, DRK can wear Llwyd's clogs. Amm Greaves are a bit tougher to beat, but they'll win out above 3125 HP.
