Yeah...like I said. Rana's a weird beast. I've been trying to treat it like penta and use accuracy primarily and work in attack/strength after that. But...it seems like no matter what I do it's wildly inconsistent. Maybe I'll just start using my penta stuff and switch the gorget/earring. :x

...which reminds, I guess I could edit my penta stuff into there. Though it's pretty weak, comparatively. Never focused on polearm much.

No no. Treat it like Guillotine.

My DRK is total crap. Gotta be honest, multi-hit ws'es (outside of RR/KJ for some reason) have always shat the bad. Even going back to spampage parties. My Asuran Fists are pretty solid, but my monk gear is built off my samurai gear which overall is pretty damn decent.

But Rampage/Guillotine/Vorpal Blade/Jin(to a lesser extent) always kinda fizzle out no matter what gear combo I use. Or maybe I'm just too used to samurai.

Guillotine gear is something to the extent of heca head/hands/feet, gorget, brutal/bushi, Rajas/Flame, Haub+1, Forager's, Warwolf & Askar legs(meh).

And no matter what buffs I've got or food I've eaten...it underwhelms.

Christ, congrats man finally got that Amano. I remember right after I transferred to the server and did a pickup Nyzul with you and saw you were far along and was psyched for you. Little did I know how long it'd be before you actually finished hah. Job well done and happy killing stuff.

Thanks. ^^

Yeah...was about a year and a half there from stage four to finishing. Mostly because I bought very little currency, it was all collected via Dynamis drops and we had some pretty shitacular months for currency in there.

Gratz on your relic :o

Wouldnt walarha turban be better though?. It would probably even be better than a ace helm I would imagine. I assume you probably have 8/8 gk merits since you been a sam forever. I cant really see how you would have acc problems especially with all the merits and then the extra 20 acc on the relic.

Other than that it looks good to me. Cant really comment on Rana b/c I hate the weaponskill other than making solo dark :x

Thanks! And yeah; I should have put up my "TP2" setup, too. Uses Ulthalam's & Walahra full-time.

You'd be surprised how much acc you need to actually cap out on things in endgame. Even in Einherjar and Colbri camp I don't cap out (and I have the ideal set). At Colbri camp, I can only cap out if I /DRG and for the fact that I'm mithra. I know that for an ideal set for hume, acc is only 93% as well. (based on past parses with Vann and old data from Ruke)

Just all depends what I'm doing. The vast majority of the stuff I do, accuracy is a non-issue. I've got a few TP sets; that one's just the "standard". I really need an Usu body; as it is, I don't have a Store TP set that can utilize an accuracy-adding body piece unless I make one out of the ACP body. Which...meh. I guess I should actually consider doing until I can get Usu.

The amount of times I'm in an "ideal" part for merits is extremely limited, however. Most of the time if I -have- two buffers, one of the buffs up is accuracy just because inevitably -someone- needs it. The other day I was @MMJ with a brd + cor and with hedgehog pie + 1 accuracy buff I had zero problems; most of the time even while flashed.

But again, generally had an accuracy buff up most of the time. Not ideal, but that's life on Seraph sometimes.

However...like I said, it's not like I'm not working toward bettering my gear to have the right set for every situation!

[Zoidberg voice] Dogged persistence, that was the key!
