No if you have it unlocked:

You will be very happy if you can have one empy 119, very few have one.

IMO: Wildifre (RNG/COR), Hi (NIN), Jishnu (RNG), Victory (MNK), Fudo (SAM), CDC (BLU/PLD/RDM).

Are you switching out bullet to Orichalcum Bullet for the mab just for wildfire ?

Wildfire dont count the bullet dmg, so the oricahlcum mab is the only thing that enter in the calcs. But can use animikii bullet if you have faith in your recycle.

Don't use Animikii Bullet. As far as I have experienced, Any time you equip a new bullet, you will always use the first bullet used for TP or WS, and you cannot use Scavenge to recover a single bullet, if you have only used one.

Well, if you already have one lv85, maybe its worth upgrading to 90 to unlock, but not really depending of your cash/mules. Personally, i orefer burning my login points to create a woe weapon 99 instead leveling my armagedon to 90 for wildfire.

But if you dudnt even start the magian trials, if you dont have the balls to take it to 119, yes, its a waste of time working in an empy.

He said he already have an empy! Maybe not almace cuz the NM sucked, but Isgebind isn't bad.

Edit: Oh nvm, he meant upgrade to ILV119, yeah most empy isn't worth it.

taking it to ninety now gives you the weapon skill permanently?

I've heard Rcat now overshadows CDC anyways.

Sorry, just came back from year long break. I want to get my rng and blu strong again so I'm kind of unsure where to start. For rng I guess I'll just start an i119 bow and Anni for gUn

Prothescar says that most of times Requiescat is better than CDC, but aparently the new update, that will happen next week, can turn the table toward CDC. Assuming stuffs now isnt reliable, best to wait to see how all this will end.

You can start your RNG by reforging your AF, if you didnt do it already, and working in several weapons you can possibly use, and easier to get, till you can complete an anni. Hgarfician, Bocluami, Tenzen Bow, Cibitshavore, the JSE gun/bow, there are a lot of options in market atm. You can get your job done with any 119, be it more or less stronger than other option.

But since I have at 85 already would it be faster to just take them to ninety?

It would be since Isgebind is by far easier than collecting the dice and residues.

Depend on your cash/mules. From my POV, that have more mules in account, and with downfall of shanks prices, i didnt see anything worthwhile to buy with login, so i just used all in liminal residue, dices. So for me, it was way easier/faster going for woe route. If you have lots of cash, prob you will find waste of time doing one single trial. Dont matter how easy its, its at least a full day worth of effort.

Diferent persons will have diferent tastes.
This one login in particular i will be repeating the same choices i did previous campaign: liminal residues/devious die for mule so i can get as many empy ws unlocked, and crests/seals for playable chars, so i can have in some orbs in case i want to reforge some artifact/relic gear, or to pop some seals to try my luck on kraken club, to sell it.
