That's the craziest theory I've ever heard! I can only think of a few JA off the top of my head with secondary magic checks and the magical side of them doesn't need to take effect for them to be able to proc. Macc check for procs on most other JA doesn't even make sense since they have no magical properties to begin with.

Yeah I thought it was kinda crazy when I heard it. The way I always imagined dynamis procs was a giant spinning wheel with all the procs on different slots, and when you use a JA it is like throwing a dart, and if you happen to hit the spinning wheel with on the right slot with your "dart" you get the proc, regardless of macc/meva.

Alternatively, like doing /random and if you get within the right range it procs.

Ahhh. That Avatar.

Sylow readies Death Prophet.

Completely unrelated, and probably already said elsewhere but I've been lurking less than normal on the forums recently.

Ah well.

Sylow beat me to the answer forever ago, but it was an excuse to use figlet again.

On a serious note unless I have an LS Team Ballista event scheduled, I follow Sylow's merit layout.

As far as I can see, for the Dancer who has everything these are the only two update items worth a ***:
http://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Orunmila%27s_Torque
http://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Letalis_Mantle

The new craftable HQ knife is competitive with a STR/Atk dagger or Aluh Jambiya and maybe better as a main-hand. It's going to be pretty rare though, I suspect.

If you can get it, the activation rate is high, and it's actually Copy Image instead of Blink.

For those of you who are wondering which dagger Byrth is talking about:


18828: Oxossi Facon +1 Dagger DMG:51 Delay:194 STR+10 AGI+10

Accuracy+15 "Subtle Blow"+8 Lv99 THF DNC


Which idk looks decent for Exenterator to me...but with no attack probably a sidegrade.


Anyway...on another note a question: I'm just now getting my thaumas gear (late I know but better late than never) and still kinda deciding on what to use where. So here's what I'm thinking:

Pants for TP when saber is down.
Body for when delay capped but for nothing else?
Head, hands, legs, feet for EXE?
Hands, legs, feet for all other WS?
Any other combinations I'm leaving out for other things?

I'm in the same boat as you. I use hands for TP, theres no such thing as miodio/nompka(sp) over here and pretty much doing the same thing for everything else as you.
