Im guessing my gil problems with RNG and COR are solved :?

Even the bayld arrows/bolts/bullets are nice :<


The cheap plasm ammo maths out to 300k~ per stack and Achiyalabopa is the equivalent of 1.5m+ in equivalent value based on airlixir prices.

So indirectly it costs even more than it used to

Not sure about space issues although bleeding plasm is going to be fun. I'm almost positive 1 stack of bullets will last you at least 1 delve run thanks to scavenge and recycle procs. Would love to know what ppl who are doing boss runs average for bullet use per run?

Use roughly 1 stack of bullets in 3-4 boss runs. Could lose more if you forget to scavenge, etc.

Never managed to get Chocotzali Mask, but managed to get Uk"Uxkaj Cap! Looking forward new gear sets!

Edit: I say I'm looking forward new gear sets, but not that much has changed since last update. Eagerly waiting for R/M/E update and what it entails though.

Anyone have suggestions on optimal Barrage sets? Is it just a R.acc set with Htr. Bracers +1 and Barrage+1 Desultor Tassets mixed in? Or load up on AGI/Crit Hit Rate? Or what?

I go the RAcc path. Nothing will ruin your day more than full-whiffing and you want as many hits to land as you can. Older stuff you can swap in RAtk/Crit for lolnumbers.

If you go by opportunity costs that seems bad, but as far as spending actual gil you are spending nothing except for other costs :<

But yea, you could be using that plasm to get +2 monehs :<

I'll post what I have as optimal. At least until lv100+ gear is updated. This is for Delve bosses mainly the Bee.
ItemSet 247158

Anything lower and you can swap in crit gear as you like.

Is the STR+3 AGI+3 and R.Acc+2 on Khepri Jacket better than the Enhance Velocity Shot bonus to ranged Atk you get on Sylvan Caban+2?

forgot update happened and r.acc on that hat is prob = to sylvan

I understand the neck (besides the fact that it requires 2 rockfin teeth to synth) but when i was looking at that combined with the fact that i thought the hat wasnt giving as much r.acc as sylvan i was... thrown off lol

thats what i get for posting baked at 4am

According to the spreadsheet lol

I'm confused. STR +3 and AGI +3 is beating 35 ranged attack lol...? Sylvan caban is almost certainly better. The only situation it wouldn't be is if attack is capped. However, you might as well use it regardless for the -enmity. It's not like 3 more STR is going to do much.

Edit: double damage from sylvan set bonus can proc on barrage as well (body+feet).

Curious, since I never actually completed the AF quest (only ever went far enough to get hands), anyone tried out newScavenge with the AF1 boots? Maybe I can get back those 1-2 bullets I seem to always miss out on when Scavenging. lol

I personally don't have the boots yet, but in my experience, if you wait longer, you end up losing less ammo. Scavenging once in 45mins is better than 12 times. The only problem is when you forget to scavenge at end of boss run and then lose 500k+ lol


when we were doing boss runs, i'd scavenge like 40-50 bullets for the 2nm +boss that we killed. I can only imagine boots would help


for the 2NM only lost 3-5 depending, and I don't use recycle head on WS's either.

I always use boots and 5/5 scavenge. I don't think they make a huge difference, though. I'd say I still lose about 10-20 bullets per delve, 5NM+boss. I agree with raist. You can scavenge up to (bullets used -1) so technically if you were to scavenge after every bullet lost, you would regain 0 bullets.

If you used 5 bullets and scavenged you could regain up to 4. Let's say you did that for every 5 bullets lost. After 15 you'd regain ~12. Let's say you instead use scavenge after 15 bullets used. You now have the opportunity to regain up to 14.

I also forget to scavenge sometimes, and the worst is when you crash near the end of the run :(.

I haven't been able to find the testing for decoy shot. Has it been proven that WS damage transfers with decoy shot?

WS damage does not transfer, nor does barrage damage transfer.

Thanks Helel, that's what I thought. There is (no surprise) misleading information on the other wiki.

Alright, here again to ask about Muyingwa setup. Me and my friends are preparing for it but there's a lot of uncertainty regarding the amount of acc needed. Obviously cor, brd and geo buffs will be on.

ItemSet 308852
(should have shark bullets soon, but anyway)

ItemSet 303497

These are the current plans, what should be changed? And with what food, sushi?

(I know there's better daggers too, just didn't find any on ah yet)

Seha, you are waaay over my racc in your first set and I eat Pot-au-feu and remain capped. My changes are: Sylvan legs +2, Rajas over Bellona, Sylvan over Terebellum, Aluh over racc dagger. For WS, Thaumas over Sylvan feet, Pyrosoul over Moepapa, R13 STR manibozho legs.

I also have shark bullets but thats mainly a ranged attack boost over you. If I notice buffs falling (which they shouldn't, ***dies in sub 4 minutes) I'll switch to more racc.

Kheper is better than sylvan for coronach (I assume that's what you're asking). Sylvan for last stand.

You can use these sets and eat RCB on the bee. I've forgotten to change food multiple times and remained capped on accuracy. Normally I use antacid and switch, but I'm playing 2 chars so I often forget. If the fight takes longer than 6-7m for some reason then you may want to use antacid at that point, whenever SV songs start dropping.

That said, with so many buffs and geo-frailty, angon, etc. my attack is usually capped even with just sushi and without berserk. If you want to play it safe, you might as well eat sushi and call it good. RCB is really only giving you some extra strength.

Oh I should say, we use 3 RNG and GEO instead of 4 RNG, so the RNGs always have indi-fury up as well. If acc is ever an issue, you can always have the GEO use indi-precision.
