A Scholar's Education (Guide)

IMO you need to cap RP on Agwu's if you're doing an Ongo V25 fight using Agwu's.

Helices automatically get the weather buff guaranteed, so obi isn't necessary.

I would at least focus on RPing the legs. Then you can cap MBB1. Then the hands. You can make it work with Empy pieces in other places. That said, with your current gear, I would swap to 5/5 empy +3. Change waist to skrymir +1 and shield for culminus. I would also consider changing your TVR ring to medada's for this fight. I'd use it in place of freke for helix and mujin for normal magic burst.

Your elemental magic set should also be reconfigured to something similar to the above, with the obi and ammurapi back in place.

Obscure info but highly relevant: Tupsimati enmity- applies separately from gear cap enmity, and functions like empyrean body enmity-. It applies multiplicatively after gear bonus.

You can do some serious magic bursting and almost never get hate for it.

Assuming it's the same term as Arbatel Gown +3, that would give SCH another -48 Enmity on top of their normal -50 enmity. That's pretty amazing for self enmity suppression.

Testing Tupsimati

Can confirm that with /sam, proper sTP set, haste, and AM3, SCH can self burst all spells to include Impact. Impact can only if you pre-cast Alacrity for only that spell in particular. I save so many stratagems meleeing that swapping arts or casting ebullience every spell is possible. Myrkr solves all MP issues.

In long range fights can obviously go /rdm for MAB, fastcast, convert, and use staff AM2.

Extremely versatile staff in the hands of a wise mage.

quick question, what would be better for MB ( nukes and Helix ) Mpacca Staff R25 or Bunzi Rod R15 ( need that damn tree dead in V20 lol )

Depends on how the rest of your gear looks. On SCH, I don't think MP was ever an issue, so having staff for Myrkr wasn't a factor. Though depending on the scenario (lack of support or too long of a fight), having access to Myrkr could be appealing.

Bunzi's Rod has MBB +10 on it for what it's worth. I've always gone with Bunzi's Rod + Ammurapi Shield (or Culminus for Helix).

yeah MBB +10 sounds better then MBB II +2, but, with Agwu R25 and +4 AF/Relic, isnt it easy to cap out the hard cap of MB I 40 ?

Sure, but you get some flexibility to swap something like Agwu hands in for Empy hands.

Side by side comparison of Bunzi R15 + Ammurapi Shield vs Mpaca's Staff R25 & Enki Strap -
+18 Magic acc, +28 MAB, -15 Magic Damage, -2 MB II, +10 MB I

At a glance, the only reason to use Mpaca's would be for MP management reasons.

ok cool ty

Any recommendations for a good Shining Strike set?

What does a modern healing set look like? Just Kaykaus +1 or anything specific?

depends if you are worried about getting hit or not.
ItemSet 378846
probably still farily accurate though I haven't looked in a long time. focus is on cure potency, enmity- and conserve MP.

edit to add a DT primary focus set.
ItemSet 338349
feel free to improve on it, just made it in a minute based on getting DT cap. with as few other swaps as needed.

This actually reminds me at mastery rank 7+ I should be using Hoxne earring for cure potency too across all my jobs.

As far as tankier cure sets go I do really like to fit in empy body if I can both for dt and -enmity.

I figured the Relic hands +4 would outpace the kaykaus, thanks for that tip. Just need to save money for the set.

Gearing a SCH alt for Oddy/Sortie, and kinda browsing through here and the all jobs sets. Anyone got some more ideal sets to aim for? Also, looking at that cure set, should I actually get the Chatoyant and Twilight?

Here is what I use when I solo on Sortie.

What’s your sortie solo route/galli yield? Curious.

Talking for myself of course, I'm doing A and E boss and everything in between, depending on placing of the lesser NMs etc.. Doing all that I usually yield around 15k Galli.

Which leads me to another SCH/Sortie related question. I'm trying C Boss for a while now and while I think I have the order of things / mechanics down, my Rapture / Cure IV's seldomly do the 28k damage I've seen on YouTube, but more like 8-15k, mostly 8k.
I'm using full empy+3 for this, un-augmented Bunzi Rod/Daybreak, MND/MAB/MACC cape, light obi, etc., so I don't see how I could improve my gear (other than augmenting the Bunzi Rod, but 25MAB and some MACC cannot explain the numbers?).
Maybe I have the whole healing magic as damage formula wrong, so if anyone is doing C Boss on SCH: Any tips for me?

And finally, I'd really like to expand my galli yield, and just one more basement boss would almost double the 15k, so if anyone would like to run with another SCH sometimes, please let me know. I'm playing at GMT times, usually in the evening.
