perfect Herc boots are great and all, but...
The following are alternatives:
tatenashi sune-ate +1 (Relatively easy to get, cheap to augment)
Mpaca's boots (defensive, PDT)
kendatsuba sune-ate +1 (Gil, defensive, MEVA, Subtle Blow, Crit rate)
Oseem sucks!

Forgot tate boots tbh but much as i hate oseem too herc boots are still very strong even with baseline augs. 5 ta and bout 30 acc is just a good combo
Why are all the weapon skill sets focused on multi hit instead of WSD? i'd appreciate insight.
they changed MNK ws to ftp transfer so WSD doesn't do much for it anymore since the ftp isn't focused on the first hit

Because WSD only works on first hit and most MNK WSs are multihit with ftp transfer. Generally 12DA=6TA=4QA=24WSD for all those WSs with ftp transfer.
Ofc some WSs are at 8hit cap or close, so they won't benefit from multiattack or it will be slightly less effective, but that would require analyzing each case separately.

Anyone know what the cap is on the rate of Kick attacks?
100% Kick rate, When not hitting the 8 attack cap

Another question, does anyone know if Subtle Blow works to reduce the TP gained by the enemy from countered hits? Or does it just work on normal melee hits?
No factual test to quote that I can think of, but it should reduce counter hit tp generation.
That's why subtle blow strats work.

From bg:
There are also several TP-free sources of damage, such as Blood Pact: Rage, Quick Draw, any kind of Jump, Counter, and any form of magic that does not directly do damage (like Poison II).
Quote:
The player will not gain TP from a counter attack, but an enemy will receive TP from a successful counter-attack against them.
Jp.wiki also says tp is given to an enemy with counter

Then BG has conflicting opinions, this came from the Counter page on BGwiki.

That could also be worded weirdly and just mean enemies gain TP when they counter you but you don’t gain TP when you counter enemies.
Official forums say tp is given to enemies when countered. Community rep response (jp rep)

You can test this in ballista if you really care.
In my original statement, I only asked if Subtle Blow would reduce the TP an enemy gains from attacks that I counter? Or if it only works on normal melee hits?
All the replies to your original question are relevant and you reiterating your question adds nothing.
If someone had the time to test in Ballista, we might have an answer.

subtle blow does affect counters and spells

SB effects everything that is able to give the mob TP
What augments are suggested for the Moonshade Earring in the Weapon Skill equipment sets in the first post?
TP bonus +250
Attack +4 (I did Accuracy)
Attack +4 (I did Accuracy)
Sweet, thanks a lot. It's too bad the site doesn't allow you to include aguments.

+250 TP bonus is the important one.
+4 ACC or ATK is virtually nothing. If you play any job that could make use of magical/hybrid WSes, I'd much sooner go with 4 MAB in that slot.

4 MAB isnt much either, but yes all 4 options really dont matter in the long run though I would say always go acc over att as most of the big physical ws sets dont overflow with acc nowadays on most jobs comnpared to tp sets. The acc is also important on hybrids where mab would be too.

It's not 1:1
It's actually a good idea. I've been having +4 acc on my moonshade since aeons ago, but swapping to +4 mab it's a neat idea. As much as the difference won't be huge, but still...
[+]
For me just the fact that we use on a few jobs the tp bonus weapons is enough reason to keep acc, hybrids benefit from the acc to as the best dps sets also lack acc... just saying.
In the past, I may have agreed- but we're not using jank-*** Oseem augments anymore.
