Kaboom! A Guide for Black Mage
Fenrir.Ramzus said: » Either works. They literally are 99% similar in stat and neither of them have any sort of advantage for bursts. Eschan stone works too but it's not as good as the other two. Just use whichever one you can get the easiest. Got it! thanks! Whats best for Dye on BLM cape thats being used for Death another 20MP or 10INT?
Death doesn't use INT in its damage calculation
Fenrir.Ramzus said: » Death doesn't use INT in its damage calculation I've been doing some calculations trying to make a death calculator, and I'm really struggling to make a Grioavolr do more damage on death than a Lathi Path A. My current total stats are:
216MAB in gear (without weapon) 38% MBurst in gear 2107 MP in gear This set, with various augs: ItemSet 347874 Am I doing something wrong/calculating wrong? (Also, any recommendations on upgrades bar Amalric +1) Mephitas Ring->Archon Ring.
Etiolation Earring->Friomisi Earring Grioavolr becomes more useless as you gain MBD elsewhere. However, it has a ton of M. Acc over Lathi which is why people prefer it for harder stuff. For easier stuff it's really easy to hit 99,999 regardless so Lathi isn't doing anything in that regard (although, it IS technically better) Also I only count 35%, not 40%. So either you'd have to swap Frio to Static, or have a Grioavolr w/ 5% MB. Not everyone has 10 MB Jubbah+Crackows with high MAB ether so that also makes Grioavolr more useful

Quote: Ethereal Static ! Lyramion said: » Quote: Ethereal Static ! long week Ramzus what have you been able to get on Grio for Death? Are you hitting 99k on the Reisen HELM Chloris NM?
friend and i were trying to see what we could roll. since I am heavy on amalric+1 my burst% was well under cap so this seems to be pretty good for my setup  I haven't bothered to make one on Bacon/Oneone but I have a near fully capped Grioavolr on Airride for Death. I think it was like 87 MP, 30 M. Acc, 26 MAB, 8 MB?
We will need Screenshot proof of that. (So I can show it to ppl and drive them crazy with augments)
Anyone have a little more advanced Gearswap with toggles for death set-up and that jazz along with a toggle for normal magic bursting?
I'm in the middle of making a JSE cape for midcast Death and am looking for some advice on the augments. I seem to have no trouble finding the augs for weapons and amalric, but what about the cape? Here's my thoughts.
Thread > 60MP (only real option) Dust > Mag Acc (only real option) Sap > 10MaB or 10 Fast Cast ?? Dye > 20MP / 10 Mag Acc ?? I know that the situation is going to change the needs, but this is my fourth BLM cape, so EVENTUALLY I'll have more options, but what should I start with? Thanks guys.

---- Macro/Keybind/Toggles/SelfCommands you may need
-- Magic Burst: /console gs c toggle MagicBurst
-- AF Body: /console gs c toggle ConsMP
-- AOE for auto nuke: /console gs c toggle AOE
--- This is makes the nuke() function use AOE nukes or not
-- Element for auto nuke: /console gs c element (Earth, Wind, Ice, Fire, Water, Lightning) - case sensitive
--- Selects an element for nuke() to use
-- Auto Nuke: /console gs c nuke
-- Death Mode: /console gs c toggle DeatCast
--- Saved Death Mode toggle for last
--- This one toggle will handle everything for Death
--- This includes idle/engaged, casting other spells/self-buffs
--- The only other thing you have to do is the Magic Burst toggle,
--- as it decides whether the handler will put your Death-specific MB set on over your
--- regular one.
--- It also remembers what casting mode you were in when you turned Death Mode on

endNot sure why it's not recognizing this set when in magicburst mode. My personal theory is the problem lays somewhere in this third spoiler but I'm not sure where and how to fix it. Because when I do magicburst mode and showsets I obviously see it equiping my elemental magic set and nothing from the sets.magic_burst. Wtf af 3 hands 8 burst but no MAB. Ramzus what does this mean!
Same mp as amalric hq, more macc, more burst, more int vs 53 mab. I'll take it.

Hey BLMs
So I brought my BLM to a Maju shout, and I was so unprepared I was shocked. I'm trying to figure out how I can improve my gear so I can actually take it to events. I'm master, but apparently a long way from earning it. Here is my set ItemSet 348403 Augs: Lathi Path C Merlinic Hood MACC 22, MAB 33, Fast Cast 2 Amalric Hands Path D Merlinic Legs Int 3, MACC 21, MAB 30, MBD 8 Merlinic Feet MAC 33, MAB 38 I was hitting like 7-10k with tier 6 nukes. Death is a whole other monster, but I'm just wondering where to try to improve this set.

Death is a whole other monster, but I'm just wondering where to try to improve this set. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance! Amarlic body, reroll that head, you need burst on merlinic head 8+, then you can drop the static, reroll the feet for burst%, then can sneak in a Shiva ring+1 your not going to hit big numbers on the blizzard6 on Maju maybe 40k tops with Idris. Death is the moneymaker on him. There are plenty of death sets posted on page 1 for reference. Dont forget about your precast/idle sets for Death also MP is the big multiplier for Death Asura.Toralin said: » kithaofcerb said: » Hey BLMs So I brought my BLM to a Maju shout, and I was so unprepared I was shocked.

For getting MBD augments, are you guys using Fern or Pellucid stones? fern will go up to 11% MBD, Pell/Taupe 10%, but you can get more INT on Taupe
Fern also forces the slot - so you will always get something from that slow with Fern. Have fun in Hell aka Norg. FYI with that gear set as it is right now with the high macc and matt you can easily solo Sang Buya with trusts in under 5 mins (MBD not needed here as you will be free nuking. Also change out rings and neck for free nuking too). Easy way to farm a lot of stones effectively. Or dual box a sch and make it a 2 min run xD!
Also ammo piece needs upgrading - Pemphredo Tathlum or the unity one (cant remember name) would be good upgrades. Have fun! kithaofcerb said: » Hey BLMs So I brought my BLM to a Maju shout, and I was so unprepared I was shocked.

T3 Reisen NMs are really high level, so you need a good deal of raw INT and a ton of macc to really hurt them. How's your fast cast set btw? The BLM that routinely is able to MB first usually wins parse, due to the elemental resist wall. I know some BLMs who have bananas augments that will lose to lesser-geared people because they aren't landing their spells first often enough. Lastly... were your GEO's giving you Languor/Focus/INT? Burn/Frazzle on? Did you have Klimaform on? Macc food? Rayke/Gambit? Corsair shot debuff? Buffs/debuffs are just as important as gear on T3+.

He probably isn't going to want to, but he needs to either re-roll his crackows, or aug a 2nd pair for MB purposes.

If it was 12 INT and 35mab/35macc then yeah I woudl say keep it and try to work around it. But most blm have 2-4 of each merlinic piece, MAB/BURST/FC sets, then potentially misc refresh/phalanx/dt pieces as well |
