ItemSet 376378

Would be my pick. Gives up a bit of yamarang's stats, but gets you enough DW for delay cap. Not sure why daggers are backwards, don't feel like messing with it. Maybe consider dropping one moonlight for d.ring, which'd give you capped DT with a DT-5 cape.

Given you already have the Gandrings, I wouldn't rule out offhanding a second one over Twashtar either. The accuracy and HP are nice, and the remaining TH+ will be helpful in capping TH as well.

The w2 bosses are 10 minute fights on MNK, with less buffs than you have. They are likely shorter with your setup, so you should prioritize survivability options over damage.. your buffs and malignance on their own are going to make the fight short enough to not be a concern.

mastered thf doesn't need 11dw in gear, just 6, so you can go back to yamarang/digni./sherida.

Im just looking for the set with the best odds for being the single engaged player on the w2 bosses.

my thoughts are

COR - samurai/chaos roll
BRD - honormarch/mambo/minne/carol (maybe 2 carol depending the nm?)
GEO - perhaps geofrailty + indi slip/voidance?
RDM - all the typical RDM things... perhaps bio over dia?
WHM - all the typical WHM things.

trying to think outside the box.

Well, I hope it goes well for you, let us know if you achieve it.

I'm not saying don't do it, I'm just saying that hate may be an issue.

Please, prove me wrong. I don't mind.

Accomplice/collaborator whm and rdm, random deal them back if needed

I've done what you've done with the same exact setup, in Windurst, except for MNK/NIN instead of THF/NIN. (MNK has a solo 3 step with Shijin -> Dragon Kick -> Victory smite that helps). I'm not sure what SC you'd do with THF though. Still sounds cool. Best of luck.

Would you mind providing details on the buffs you've used?

Pls and ty!
