So in the RNG guide: https://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/53342/youll-shoot-your-eye-out-new-ffxi-rng-guide/

It states we need Snapshot 70%, of which Flurry covers 15% and Flurry II covers 30% Great.

ItemSet 364537

When I tally this up it's only 67 snapshot. Did I miss something?

Because that's not 70, does that mean the Ikenga Vest's +9 beats the (what I think is only) +7 from the Amini Caban +1?

If the only thing that matters in the preshot is making us shoot more, the other bonuses from the Amini don't move this math correct?

merits give 10% snapshot, the 7% velocity shot is a different term

So with merits 5/5 that total is actually sitting at 77%? Ah, no, different term means that 7 comes out and it's exactly 70%.

Thanks Austar

If your set is using an augmented Perun+1 (likely common for Fomalhaut and Annihilator, possible in Armageddon sets), you can replace the legs with Adhemar Kecks+1 (path D) to maintain capped Snapshot plus gain some Rapid Shot.

Good catch.

That would mean we could also adjust the Flurry 2 set which currently swaps in:
Orion Beret +3
Yemaya Belt
Arcandian Socks +3

To leave the Meg. Jam. +2 from the base set, but swap on the Pursuer's Pants instead, I think.

It's the equivalent of going from -23 SS +33 RS to -28 SS +42 RS, if I did my math right.

My flurry2 sets swap in Orion Beret+3, Yemaya Belt, Mrigavyadha Gloves, and Pursuer's Gaiters over the base set (that you linked), along with Adhemar Kecks+1. Pursuer's Gaiters have the same amount of Rapid as the Relic+3, I just found them cheaper^^

This results in the following numbers:

29 Snapshot (with +2 neck, and using Perun+1)
61 Rapid Shot
9% increase to Velocity Shot(empy+1 body and JSE cape)

I can live being 1 under cap with Flurry 2 for that much rapid shot in my book. Gastraphetes has +10 snap on it, so no need to worry about it, but for my flurry2 sets that don't see Perun+1 being used, I keep Carmine+1 hands.

The suggestions you make also work quite well.

I'm dying over here haha

The guide has the two alongside each other as if they are different!
ItemSet 364542
ItemSet 364543
Meanwhile even in the notes I was making I have them down as the exact same values and didn't notice until you pointed it out.

Thanks for the inventory +1

Hmm now what about this:
ItemSet 378936

That might edge your set out Celebrindal.
I show that as exactly -30 SS from our base 70 set but +39 RS from the base for a 63 RS total gain.

Get you that one SS back plus 2 more RS
