Thanks for the help. I've updated Spellcast and my posted Item Sets using the info given here.

Ares+1 Body == Valkyrie's BP(ta3 augs) depending on buffs

Which buffs would these be? You said this has been covered on the last few pages, but only half a page has been posted since the salvage update. Is it in a different thread somewhere?

I think the part he said was covered in previous pages was in relation to his comments on waist/ear slots. The relevant buffs that would tip the scales between Ares +1 and Valkyplate would be Accuracy buffs (favoring Ares +1 if Acc uncapped), Attack buffs (favoring Valkyplate if Attack uncapped), and Fighter's Roll (favoring Ares +1 (slightly)). Personally, I wouldn't add Ares +1 to my WAR loadout if I had a Valkyplate, the Valkyplate is top shelf for Upheaval (erring on the side of extra Acc which I like considering where that WS is likely to see use) and you've already got it in your inventory for TPing.



Preparing for imminent time travel!

The lead Valk. has when attack is capped over Ares +1 that big. Valk's lead over an Armada TP set is also not as impressive as it people make it out to be. Get Ares +1 for Upheaval, Armada for TP, and Twilight when you need acc for Upheaval.

Does anybody know where Caudata Belt comes from yet? Looks to be the newest best option in the Waist slot for Upheaval. Haven't found any info on how to obtain it. BGWiki is down so if how it's obtained is listed there, I have no way of checking right now.

At this point it would be less annoying to farm the remainder of the gil than to farm salvage.

Will see though.

Thanks for the advice.

About a month out from Conqueror and looking into my Upheaval build.


Moonshade is Attack+4 TP Bonus+25.

Any suggestions, assuming AM3 everytime? I do have a TA+3 Valkyrie's, and more Ares+1 isn't out of the question. Don't plan on having any HQ Corvine anytime soon, and I still don't have a Drachenhorn. My main question lies around the belt option, if it would be superior to elemental belt or windbuffet belt; it also lies around the body option, I'm not sure if I should use Ares body+1 with gloves+1, or if I should use Valkyrie's Breastplate and Phorcys Mitts, or if Valkyrie's Breastplate is even a good choice at all with the AM3 compared to Ares+1.

Thanks for any advice. :D

Valkyrie's Breastplate would be better than Ares' +1 for Conqueror due to it increasing Triple Attack. Oneiros Cappa would be better than Letalis Mantle.
