Has the Molybdosis been found yet?

I got it from the Seaprince's Tomb in Caedarva Mire after doing a long set of quests.

Not sure if there was a doubt or question, but Fettering Blade comes from Promathia.

Seems pretty easy to get. Dropped first fight on normal.`

Dawn II was totally shitty for COR. *** spams dispelgas and is stupid resistant to magic dmg. I guess you could spam Last Stand, but at that point you might as well just be a gimpy RNG. I gave up and went GEO to get my sweet sweet new fettering blade.

Took me 3 tries, 2x D and then it dropped on the one VD I did. (Pants happened on the N after that.)

Guide updated(including weapons for which I was scolded multiple times about forgetting)
Please assist me if you find I forgot to fix anything else.

For the lazy these are the notable mentions of this update:

Molybdosis: unfortunately an amazing gun.
Fettering Blade: fantastic sword, probably should be your main goal for this update.
Baetyl Pendant: Deviant's position as best magic neck was short lived.
Telos earring: excellent earring for shooting situations.

Some minor additions also, but these are the most important ones.

Approximately how close does DP 0.5 come to DP 1.0? Some of these guns are creeping uncomfortably close.

Corsair is utterly worthless in there. I went Corsair on the first Normal run to clear it and when it was ***on Normal I switched to Ranger for leveled up version just to do damage from a distance and proc up Bounty Shot because "superstition." And because every job I have and care about is worthless in the current endgame environment, apparently*.

LS did several runs last night, two groups x3. My group went 3/3 on the sword and cape. Other group (iirc) got bow x2, cape x2, sword x2. No body/pants.

*slight lie, but you only need one tank in six-man groups most of the time and my wife is a well-geared and skilled paladin, soooo.

Is it a new Quest line? The only new quest I see is for the refresh ammo. What's the starting quest?

Meh, I'm a scrub with just COR as my support geared well. So I'll have to manage with a Ranger set up I guess.

Buff jobs as COR or BRD is really boned in Dawn 2 just cause he constantly wipes buffs. So idealy you'd want a GEO for buffing.

This goes for more or less the entire game now.

Corsair and bard are old hat*. A luxury you only need sometimes, and that can normally be handled by a mule.

*Not that I care, I like my old hat, gorramit.

SMN works very well on Dawn II. So COR isn't totally useless on the fight.

Shock Squall does a butt load of damage and stuns Promathia. Did COR GEO BST PLD WHM SMN. I'd imagine dual SMN's or just drop COR for 3 SMN's would make quick work of the fight. Completed VD with this set up.

It would be decent, but only if there's no other sch or another mage /sch in the party since they could just do it for you. Pretty much same concept as /rdm for Flurry.
If there's no one that can do it for you it's decent for ranged situation in which you only use Leaden and that don't require you to be drg or nin.

I'm afraid I can't seem to find my cares about Savage Blade. They must be in my jacket.

Who needs Savage Blade when we just got an awesome ranged option for Evisceration!

With the new sword as main hand, savage blade + last stand become a Nice way to solo light skillchains..

On normal?

Man, on Normal avatars have the worst drop rate. On Fenrir you would have seen nothing.
I don't understand why SE has inconsistent rates for the difficulties of the KI.

That being said N is a large difference in difficulty every KI fight compared to D.

I also got my Fettering Blade on N in a fairly small number of runs (1 last night, and had done a couple N previously), so either quite lucky or drop rate isn't too awful. Notable that I also had a THF in my party: we were PLD BLU THF GEO + trusts.

I've also done a couple times on D with PLD NIN healer and not sure what else (no THF).

I'm currently at 44 Normal runs with 0 Fettering Blade drops. I've gotten every item except for body and sword Zzzz. I hateeee this fight.

For melee, they lack any DEX and have a decent amount less ACC than Samnuha or Taeon. And they also have ridiculously low AGI, making them beat handily by pursuer's.

Yea Samnuha or Taeon win overall acc do to lack of DEX and even Samnuha beat them in the racc depeartment not counting other things. I honestly wish they had add more racc or agi because of the other stats. We get like no good combo pieces on COR for shooting anything that has combo stats tends not to be that great in the end.(Talking visual gear)

Sorry to derail any discussion, but I had a question concerning GearSwap. I'm using the base GitHub file, and I'm trying to figure out what to add in to make it detect weather/day bonuses for Leade/Wildfire/QD. I'm fairly inept when it comes to GS, so any help would be appreciated. I didn't want to just have my obi be the base piece, as if I'm not receiving storms I'm just hurting myself.
