Yes, I own the whole set 5/5. I am just trying to get second opinions on which job would it be BiS for.

For RDM Sworn Platemail is BiS in phalanx set, Sworn Platemail/Gauntlets/Sabatons paired with Nyame Helm/Flanchard path A in TP set, full Sworn set in ACC and Enspell damage set. Platemail/Gauntlets/Sabatons also BiS in cdc set and full set most likely BiS in fastblade II set.

So it's only BiS for RDM really?

I am going to macro it in for Phalanx set for my RUN / PLD.

Wasn't sure about BLU or DRK though.

I think you meant Nyame Feet path A for TP set? RDM needs Nyame pants path B for WS set.

I think I might have missed it being said but does nq/hq/hq2 all have the same rank 30 augs?

So it seems. Making HQ2 sucker gear.

Go ahead pick up the NQ if you can find it or the +1 and in a year when the HQ2 is 10k cause no one will buy it, then get it.

(I know, you think the 1 extra STR is worth 50 trillion dollars)

Until someone confirms it, there is no way to know if the NQ goes up to R30. It could stop at R20 making it R20, R25, R30 for NQ, hq1 and hq2 respectively.

I doubt it from how augments on previous gear worked recently but does it matter?

In the end you'll imho want HQ2 99% of the time anyway so the time/gil investment into anything but HQ2 basically just piles on top of the HQ2 price.

HQ2 has more of all the key stats, not just STR. More PDL, DA, STP, critrate. It's worth having and it'll never be 10k, even if the augments all go to r30(which is as yet unverified).

Not wrong that people who need to be first pay out the *** for the privilege, though.

You can pay 10m for +1 now and 100m for HQ2 in a year

Or you can pay 500m for HQ2 now, and it be exactly the same but cost and extra 390m
(1 dps woohoo!)

Do we know for sure that augments are the same and they aren't capped lower than the HQ2s?

I'd say the key stat is dt-. If you TP in 3/5 parts, you will have 3 or 6 less dt- wich is... not that great. Ideally you want to cap or be close to cap of dt- in your best TP set (wich pairs well the the extra +1 Phalanx you get from the set compared to oseem augments -.-). Also if you want to use it for enspell damage, you miss out on 75/150 dmg per corcea hit with composure up.

well... I dont think RDM "needs" Nyame Flanchard path B for WS sets.
The benefits of Nyame path A legs (on RDM) are in my opinion far higher than an extra 2-6k dmg on weaponskills you'll situationally use. 13 stp and 13% crit rate make easily up for the dmg you lose and add alot to solo fights/cdc. you also can reach a better hit build than with malignance armor, wich raises ws frequency and average overall dmg.

So I don't know what other crafters experience (for the new limbus sets) is for +2 but so far I made 35 +1 0 +2

Edit: Up to 45 +1 0 +2

This is not true. You almost get nothing for WS frequency out of Nyame A legs and 13% critical hit rate on RDM is almost nothing too. Malignance legs TP and Nyame path B legs are higher DPS. Also Trust legs are better for TP anyway.
Malignance legs are also easier to setup, because they have enough haste to cap without belt or earring.

well, I'm pretty sure it is true. so far I'm doing well. and its not just nyame legs path A, its also head and feet path A wich ends up beeing a 6-hit build (not a true one, but why would rdm need that). with a delay of 84.8 and 46% TA I throw a weaponskill after every 1-3 attack rounds. I did alot of testing on apex flys in crawlers nest and dps went up by 20% compared to malignance. Also... Malignance legs are worse than Nyame path A legs on EVERY SINGLE STAT (besides AGI and I doubt your claimed higher dps comes from that). It seems to me you dont really know what you are talking about or just claim things without testing. And Sworn Platemail/Gauntlets/Sabatons paired with Nyame Helm/Flanchard path A in TP set IS the highest overall damage output and fastest way to 1k TP, I calculated every combination including # hits to 1k TP. at 68%TA 26% more TP do more than another 12 TA. And I'm not talking about whats easyer to set up, I talk about maximum possible dmg output.

I've posted my experience here before but yeah, it sucks. I believe that +2 are only on HQ3 results, so they're insanely rare. I don't see the prices falling any time soon.

I'm currently 37 / 6

With the previous RDM TP build (non-Limbus gear, Malignance 4/5 Bunzi head r30), this is pretty much how fast I gain TP. So explain to me how dropping 12% WSD results in a 20% dps gain?

Not the guy you're replying to but I think i can help elucidate:

Poor testing conditions.
