Jem is correct, Head is the last Phorcys piece a DRK should get. For WAR or SAM it would be the 3rd piece to get.

I can't see why war would use phorcys legs for anything ever. Same goes for sam.


Puzzled where that comment came from?

It was actually directed at a post above yours, I mis quoted it, thought someone said take legs before feet on WAR.

I'm 15/15, but thanks for the heads up. ;)

Unlikely since they've specifically stated they don't plan to, but if current trends continue it will become more difficult to go all-out and thus the gap between Apoc and Ragnarok will likely close somewhat in practice.

Ok so im not very good with Drk when it comes to playing it. My friend wants to play it and has never touched anything past abyssea. Trying to help gear her/him so they are atleast able to hit stuff in voidwatch.

Gs is Oat. Plays on xbox so the gearswap thing is kinda limited to 5/6? slots right now. Trying to avoid anything with acc down since has to tp in bale body.

Tp/Sam

Reso


Anything really wrong here? I know atheling could be used on lower tier vnms but would rather hit then miss.

Should be ok on anything outside the upper tier VWNM (Alima etc.). A few simple upgrades pop out though. I'll try and stay away from VW or Nyzul stuff.

Reso
Head: Mekira-oto (HQ if they can afford it)
Body: Grim (+1 if available/affordable) and I've heard ace's mail works well in some situations.
Earring: Switch out bale with TP bonus moonshade if available
Hands: Avant +1 work fine until something else comes along.

Also pole grip.

Those few pieces I understand would be better. Just having to pick for someone playing on xbox. The ws can only really change 5 or 6 pieces max. Trying to see which would be the biggest upgrades from tp set>ws.

Edit. Nvm pretty much got it now ty

The biggest upgrade you can do would be willingness to use more than 1 macro to swap into and out of your WS set. It's even easier than it was before since now you can setup your macros like this:

Line 1: Gear Swap
Line 2: Gear Swap
Line 3: Gear Swap
Line 4: gear Swap
Line 5: /echo Switching to 2nd Macro set
Line 6: /macro set #

You can then do this in the next set in the same spot so all you have to do is hit the same macro and you'll swap another set of armor. You can repeat this as needed just throw in a WS on the last one.

To go back you'd just go backwards through the sets, for example if you moved from 1 > 4 macro sets just do 4 > 1 on a different number (i.e. if you used Alt+1 use Ctrl+1) to swap back into your TP gear.

Not as fast as spellcast but the delay will be worth it in the long run.

Here's what I'm presently using (Ragnarok 99 btw)

TP I:


TP II (I usually use this one):

Hauberk is presently +2 INT (yeah...), Store TP +6, Double Attack +2%

Resolution:

I know I can do better than the Rajas for 2nd slot, but I have a lot of jobs and haven't really felt the ~2 STR I can put there justifies another inventory space -1... I'm still mulling that over lol

AF3+2 Legs over Avant+1 Legs is the only thing that stands out in your Reso set, besides the obvious TP Bonus/ATT Moonshade.

For TP, Porthos kinda sucks as far as I know, and most of the time you either have some form of regain or enough haste to be able to drop Phorcys Head for AF3+2 Head, and quite possibly Ace's Feet for Phorcys Feet and AF3+2 Hands for Phorcys Hands.

edit: Oh, and Goading for Windbuffet, missed that one. With LR up, at least.

im pretty sure hes just saying "you need a capped magic haste set" which will cover you for 3/4 of your fight time due to lr timer

i was using your tp1 set for the longest time in nni, but dropped the set after some debating in other threads. your tp2 set i imagine is mainly or should only be for /sam, dont need to change a thing unless you want to go the extra mile, in which case you could comfortably switch to the 4stp 3haste acc+ boots (wrathsomethin)

heres my current non xhit build for regain lr down

just obviously swap apoc and rose for rag and pole ^^;

and on the tp switch i had thought about it, in things like nni youre better off with the maximum average than the lucky procs, also yes a 2nd pyrosoul all the way, why get rag99 and not max the dmg?

edit: anyone have a good dps calc or spreed sheet that can compare his tp1 set against various ebody builds? his tp1 set is extremely common on our server

My moonshade is Refresh/Macc... Extremely heavy DD are quite common in my event shell, so my mage jobs tend to see action more than my DD jobs do.

As far as the 2nd pyrosoul, I'll probably snag one here at some point- aside from my crappy excuse of inventory space limitations, I was kind of holding out for a strigoi... I'm sure the difference between strigoi and pyrosoul isn't game-changing though, and I can always resell it.

Yea, pretty much...

LR oughta be up pretty much 100% of the time in Legion if you do it, so there's no reason not to have an LR set.

If I ever do Legion and I'm not on smn, I'll keep that in mind xD

I'm usually smn with rare appearances made by my cor... And when PD goes to skill instead of MP my fate will be sealed as smn for life...
Eh, I don't mind... My only *** about smn is the complete and total lack of DD potential it has. Aside from not having a mythic staff, my smn has pretty top notch gear, and the dmg output is nothing shy of sad.

Physical Pact


Magical Pact


Even with decent gear the numbers are still poor... But I digress.

And no pyrsouls on AH atm! Lol

I did say I digressed :P

I occasionally stray off point, but no harm done I'd imagine.

So your recommendation for LR is to cram as much multi-hit gear in as possible? I made this GS for fun time on WAR. I'll freely admit I burned my DRK (I had capped magic skills from BLM, and capped combat skills from WAR), so I really haven't spent much time overall playing it yet to get a hang of the intricacies of the job- most of the time I've spent playing DRK has been in VW.

to sum it up ya lol

last resort caps ja haste at 25% so no need for hasso
with magic haste cap at 43.3 you only need 12% gear haste on drk to cap at 80% so assuming no acc problems the goal is generally to stack up multihit to maximize ws rate

theres lots of examples posted throughout the thread

So would something like this be a decent setup? Puts me at the 12% gear haste mark you recommended.



I have the +2 items for AF3 head, but never bothered farming the seals... I need to do that apparently.

when you finish the af3 head youd do better in white dmg to use that, armaberk and phorcys legs

for the time being though that set isnt terrible in most cases that you would have embrava (all but legion really)

Cool. I thank you for the input.

I'll make some tweaks the more I can get out there and experiment on the job :)

Augmented Heca +1 feet can end up being better than Sollerets, so you could go straight for those. Otherwise, just use AF3+2 feet.

I just got Ragnarok today and was thinking if anyone can give tell me what's the fastest method of finishing up trials(atleast for the 200-400 kills and finishing blows), which zone, job and sub and atma's(if in Abyssea)?

Assuming solo

200 Birds WS'es - Abyss LaTheine (Apoc, Alpha/Omega, Mounted Champion)
200 Beasts Killshots - Uleg Range Rabbits + Tigers
300 Aquan Killshots - Kuftal / Bohyada / Vunkerl Crabs
300 Undead Killshots - Eldieme Basement dropdown H I think (Northern most drop), Skeles + Shades + Ghosts (18 spawns on 5 min repop I think)
400 Arcana Killshots - Ro'Maeve


Not necessarily the best but pretty sure that's an easyish route. I just did it DRK/SAM. DRK/RDM may be an alternative if completely solo, some zones have GoV in though that you can get haste from.

You can change up all of those to abyssea zones if you care to as well. Beast kill shots you can do rabbits in aby vunk. Undead are in chasm, aquans are obviously all over m. coast, and arcana you can do detectors in altepa or ule range.
