White Proc is less than 1%, it's more like 0.1-0.2%, you should average one white proc per 3 runs.

makes sense as to why i get it every other run, i hadn't done the math for that myself and last time i logged in that was the word of mouth.

Depending on what atmacite's you use you can sacrifice a bit of haste gear for crit damage or relic legs +2 :x

I honestly don't know what atmacites to be using on dancer, Coercion looks nice and is one i have upgraded, but as far as a second atmacite im kind of at a loss

you should cover atmacites/gearsets for voidwatch sylow :D

I haven't covered atmacites yet because at the moment our best options are really Coercion + Discipline, just like everyone else.

The Save TP adjustment will change that if you don't have a COR in your party.

As far as TP sets go, they're up there already, and your WS sets aren't likely to change.

I haven't covered soloing yet

Any chance you could include your thoughts on this aspect of DNC anytime soon? DNC has been my favorite soloing job so far, and I'd love to know your suggested gear sets for it.

I can't really think of anything in the game that would be

1.) Soloable by DNC
2.) Worth soloing by DNC

That requires more than standard DD sets and potentially a hybrid evasion set.

Absolutely nothing you have a shot at soloing outside requires more than a hybrid evasion set, and in Abyssea you probably don't even need that.

The only "tough" solos for DNC would probably be Glavoid and random Caturae (Yaanei, Sippoy, Iratham - Kutharei is inconsequential).

As such, it'll probably be the last thing I get around to covering.

Probably ~85.

Alliance content for 75 tended to be ~+10 levels above.

While I agree with your post, these hybrid evasion sets are precisely what I'm interested in. For example, is it worth investing in a Kacura +1 set? Dual-EVA Thokchas? Closed position 5/5? /NIN or /THF? etc etc. While some NMs might be trivial compared to others, I like to maximize my chances against any NM, easy or hard. Becoming overconfident is usually the first step towards one's demise.

(I'm not Sylow but...)

Worth it for PvP, they are next on my list. About 3/4 of the way through a set of Magic Evasion daggers at the moment.

As far as oh ***moments, Fan Dance is much easier to obtain than the -Pdt daggers, I would probably not bother making them if it weren't for the PvP prospects tbh. You gotta keep in mind in an oh ***situation you would need to swap them out, trading -22% pdt at the cost of all your TP and whatever bonuses you had on your daggers before hand.

Grats Kalima!

As for me, exactly one piece away from being done with all current Voidwatch.




(it looks better on my COR)

By the way, a while back we were discussing what "All Status Effects+" meant on Atmacite of the Valiant. I submitted a report to the localization team based on our discussion.

Congrats! I still need Athos's Tabard and Tights, but then I'm done. It's difficult to get stuff like that done when you're in the EU. D:

I've killed Rex about 20 times now and have all the crap drops + Rubeus Jacket. I wish I could trade it in for the Tabard, lol.
