I have been doing testing with weapon skills trying to optimize my Dimidiation set. I have for the most settled on a max dexterity set that seems to get good results. My thought is because the Khepri Jacket can be augmented with +5% weapon skill damage that it may be used like the Phorcys Korazin NNI body for heavy DD to give a significant boost. Can anyone with the jacket or a better understanding of weapon skill damage calculation help confirm or deny this as a valid option. I have done a few legion and am working on obtaining the abjuration for the body, but would rather save the effort if it is pointless.

If you post the rest of your Dimidiation set I'll run it through the DPS sheet.

EDIT: As a preliminary result though. I have Kepri(+5% aug) at 65 dmg behind Qaaxo r15 A for Dimidiation. With the usual "situational" caveat.

Kepri would be 14 dmg behind the harness with that set.

If you're looking to improve your Dimidiation set, there are quite a lot things you could change befroe going after rare and expensive things like Kepri. Not that you need Kepri though.

Some of this changes if you're acc starved or atk capped, but... Assuming capped acc, and uncapped atk:

From best>next>so on

Ammo: Floestone>thew bomblet>Jukukik feather
Earring: Moonshade(TP bonus)+brutal>steelflash/bladeborn
Back: Vespid>Atheling
Waist: Windbuffet+1>windbuffet NQ
Rings:Eponas>Rahmuh+1
Head Felistris>Uk'uxkaj(dex Aug)
body: Qaaxo A>Qaaxo B
Hands: Futhark+1>Qaaxo A>Buremte(dex aug)
Feet: Qaaxo C>Vanir

Hmm. I hadn't checked those yet either. Looks like they'd be ahead of Futhark+1 by a bit.(16 dmg)

Under what conditions?

There are two main cases in which you'd get more dmg out of a dex heavy set.

1:Capped, atk.
2:Uncapped acc.

The gear choices I posted were under the assumption that neither of these cases was true.

It's "eyeballed" aka ***. RUN is always atk starved and so a pure DEX set isn't best. Since Dim is two hits the +WSD only effects the first hit.

I think my attack is decent. I was using the Steak made from Tojil meat. Accuracy is in the high 800 to mid 900 range depending on mobs. Testest some on matas at homepoint for achuka and a lot in Tojil runs.
