Anything worth considering among the Mikinaak augmented stuff?

The boots, even un-augmented, ***all over ace's feet for hit builds. I would say that you can confidently do a "find all > replace" in your SC for them.

*edit* for anything else I would need to see where the augment trees will dead end at.

What's the dps difference between Ragna 99 and Bereaver? I don't have any spreadsheet to test it out so if anyone could tell me that would be nice :)

I have bereaver winning 380 to 350 but only in capped haste situation.
Could you specify the gears you would use for each weapon?

Drain/Aspir:

This is what I use;
ItemSet 275597


The right ring slot, isn't really important. Icesoul, Archon, whatever.

Let's see.

Using Taru sub Sam with no food and only Whm support vs. the Chapuli target.

Ragnarok 388.9
Bereaver 455.9

That's about a 17% DPS increase.
I only used accessible gear most people already have or unaugmented gear buyable with plasma.

The STR path bereaver jumps up to 478.4. (a 23% increase over rag)

None of these situations had capped attack so obviously mileage will vary based on buffs.

Also of note, Acc is a huge deal with delve content.
If the 22 extra acc on Rag is the difference between 75% HR and 86% HR Ragnarok starts to win.

I have pretty much everything drk can use I would think so its an upgrade after all. I was just wondering because of the hidden effect on rag. I guess I will use Rag on war or on drk when getting no buffs in new areas! Thanks

ACC can be accomplished in many other ways then changing out a higher DPS weapon. DRK has more ACC options then any other job, there is little excuse not to always be capped in Delve.

A lot of the acc problems in Delve are manufactured anyway.

No amount of acc is going to help you when mobs go into their super evasion mode where they may as well have Perfect Dodge up.

What kind of accuracy is everyone getting in Delve?

With 2x mad, sushi, and these sets:

ItemSet 299775

ItemSet 299777

I was at ~85% in Ceizak... Thinking that may be the best it gets because of the random "*** you dodge everything" moments.

Err... minus Minkinaak feet (and with Phorcys head) because I've yet to get them.

Messing around with Item Sets for Bereaver.

6 Hit DRK/SAM

ItemSet 299730

Basiclly for against fodder and assuming Haste only. Granted I'm really tired and just kinda threw this together but I think that looks about right...

So I just got Mikinaak cuisses last night and ranked it up to 5. So far I've gotten +10 Attack and +5 augmented on them. This would be the new WS pants right? especially with further augments and on Path A more str?

No doubt, they're easily the best WS pants at rank 15 on path A.
23 Str 35 Attack 20 Accuracy, beastly.

Of course the RP to cap out one item is about 60m so... adds up quick if you want a few things.

~85% over a full Ceizak Fracture is the best I've seen as well (from others and myself) with acc-tilted gear, x2 mad, and sushi. You could probably artificially spike that number by simply not attacking mobs for their ***-you periods.

For Morimar Fractures, everyone's at their usual ~93-95%.


Ceizak has the super EVA moments during the announcements which throws off parses. Mori has boosted mob att and Foret has Ice spikes, so your ACC data is more accurate.

Right. I haven't yet parsed in an exclusionary fashion, dumping the floored periods, but as Registry was saying, ACC is only going to help up to a certain point. Trading away other stats for ACC when you have floored ACC anyway would be an overall detriment to your DPS. But I don't know where the sweet spot is exactly, not yet.


Esp with DRK you can gear towards ACC QTDA. Attack sources are abundant DRK is going to near attack cap faster then any other job.

If you use my SC (or Nightfyres) you can toggle between the different sets depending on your ACC needs.

I am using an almost identical set as set 1 minus mala for rioters and phorcys for head and tyrants ring2 im 11 papers off ares+1 >.<

I am parsing about 80-85% using meat now with hunters roll on or madrigal from bard.

Highest spike reso has been 7k average floats 3k-4k when inside. I alternate diabolic eye and aggressor during the runs and seem fine using this method.

*edit* this is using Bereaver path A rank 7 atm

It is not useful and reso is a better ws than entropy.

What augments do you ppl think are better for the Mikinaak Greaves?
Type A ending with 15att, 10acc, 10str vs Type B 15acc, 10att, 10dex.

Or in other words, what is the consensus about stats in TP sets for drk. more str for fSTR reasons or a decent chunk of dex for dDEX?

Aiming to this for Delve acc:

TP LR Down (I always have marches/haste)/SAM 6 hit
ItemSet 300261

LR up switches feet with phorcys, head to Karieyh (goal should be Yoalotl w/e its called), waist to windbuffet, lring with Mars.

Resolution:
ItemSet 300262
Mekira oto in day proc (perfect on non day would be Yoalotl w/e again)

Imma start to get new delve ***when im done with THF stuff with plasmas (Missing kukri and done, to be honest Idk If I should ditch dat and start to get DRK gear)

Hi all,

I'm just wondering about my gear set. I'm plugging my gear into the drk dps spreadsheet and I'm coming out with higher numbers than the 7hit Rag /war listed on the OPs (this is vs. an Ig-Alima).

Can anyone else confirm? The gear set is:
ItemSet 295560

Would you (or anyone) happen to know if the DPS spreadsheet has been updated to reflect the Last Resort nerf?
I'll look at gearing for /sam and see how it compares too.

There's no nerf on last resort.

There hasnt been a Last Resort nerf, reread the update news and your Desperate Blows merit description. It still gives you the same amount of JA haste. (5/5 DB merits ofc)

Just so you know: Merit WS havent been nerfed either. (1/5 - 4/5 got a boost!)

And yes, considering it hasnt been nerfed and still gives the same haste, the spreadsheet does indeed use the correct calculations for LR.

edit: beaten!
