Hello,

Question does duskorb +1 gives tp bonus +200 on the ax weapon? Or should I just go with Duskorb +2?

Thanks

Technically, Duskorb/+1/+2 can all give the Pet:TP Bonus+200 augment. Good luck! :)

Couple updates to the first post:

Tail Blow was listed as Slashing, but it's actually Blunt damage.

Power Attack was cited as Induration, but it turns out it's Reverberation property.

I sure as hell wouldn't pump more gil until them until you were 100% satisfied with everything else. You are only 40tp from the max you can get without Aymur.

Ouryu being such a stingy ***, 0/39 now on earring, about 20-25 of the kills are with TH10....... all on N, I've gotten every drop but his earring. How big of a difference is this fight going from N to D? Still only have 15 sec ready timers, so I've been hesitant to try it on D, but 0/39 sucks lol

Are you soloing? If yes and you have 15s timers, don't bother with D, it won't end well. In a party? If you have at least 2 BST with half-decent gear D is fine.

I actually got insanely lucky and got my earring 1/3 on D. Setup was WHM, GEO, 2 BLU. The GEO basically invalidated his *** by standing on his feet with vex/attunement. Are you doing this with just a couple people or do you have a decent sized group to work with?

I tri box it, I bring a mule for TH, and a mule whm since it's difficult to make sure both characters are always out of range of his TP moves. I had done the first 10 or so solo, but figured bringing the TH would help more, though 20-25 kills later with TH10 and not a difference lol

I solo him on N with just trusts. Done him around 40 times, got all drops, 1 earring (at least 20 kills before dropped) and 2 heralds gaiters. I use Nanaa Mihgo trust for TH in case that actually means anything.

Also, probably doesn't mean anything, but I kept all drops even the ones I don't want, so I either get heralds gaiters (because I sell them) or nothing for gear drops, usually get nothing.

apurru, zeid 2, arciela are the other trusts usually, but any or none will work as well.

Question about snarl: From what I understand, the ability generates no enmity. If I were to build an enmity set for it, would I generate enmity with it and would that enmity then be added onto the enmity transferred to my pet? I'm trying to find a way to improve pet tanking, as it gets irritating when one JA or spell completely rips hate from Randy.

Wearing an enmity set would not cause you to generate enmity while using Snarl, and would have no additional influence on enmity transferred to your pet.

You should just stack enmity on things like Magic/Ninjutsu/Feral Howl/Flourishes/etc and follow up with Snarl!




And now a tribute to Falkirk's former life as a humble Monk!

Probably a noob question or I meesed up somewhere in the GS. But I Have all the ready.atk through my taeon gear but when I do a ready move it isnt switching to that gear. I put in the augments and everything in the ready attack head - feet section. Any idea where I couldve messed up?

I was thinking it could be the subjob class or something. But now clue

Yeah, that was my plan, I just wanted to know if I could get an easy enmity boost like that. Guess I'll be adjusting some sets for enmity pieces.

Apologies for the double post, but I was curious about setups for certain Avatar solos. I want to start spamming Leviathan for the earring for my COR, and was curious what pet would be recommended. My first instinct is to go with Iyo because of that insane -25% MDT and -50% water damage taken, but I'm not too experienced on solo Avatars so wanted to get some advice. Would Malfik or perhaps Roche be a better choice?

Haha, no worries man. :D

You're right that Apkallu would be a great option in terms of survival, but you'll want the high attack that the fish provides.

Good luck with the drops.

BOOOOYA! 1/48 on Ouryu earring (6 Gaiters at least though)! Hell ya ***. Started on AA MR, N is no problem, D I timed out @ 15% though, guessing I'll definitely 10 sec ready timer for that or any of the AA's on D for that matter.

Seen guys in my LS talking about about getting 30 JP/hour solo without the double exp campaign going on. So went to a camp, perhaps I was at the wrong one, but I wan't getting anywhere near 30 JP/hour, like not even close lol. They talking smack or is it actually possible? I need a ton of JP and have odd/limited hours I play, so don't mind logging out in an area so when I do log in I can just be there and hammer some out an hour at a time lol

The camp is at sih gate. Numerous mobs but the ones u want to go after are the acuexs. Maybe with a nice beast master party u can get 30 an hour.

I'm not sure that 30/hour is possible without double CP. I do the acuex camp religiously, as no other BSTs on Sylph know about it, and I haven't been able to replicate those numbers without double exp. The issue is the respawn times on the actual mobs. They'll die incredibly easily, but you'll still need to wait around three minutes for repop. Could you ask your LS mates where they camp? I don't think they're being truthful if they mention acuex.


Oh, also, I did Ramuh, Garuda, and Leviathan fights on D last night without a sweat. No mulsums used, maybe 2 stacks of Thetas for all fights combined. Got insanely lucky and picked up every single drop I was after on the first try. Huge thanks to Falkirk for the info in the guide and the link to the avatar fight thread.

Yes, they were referring to the Acuex camp, I assume it's a different camp then the one I was at though, cause there's no leeches where I was, bats but not leeches.

I was @ K-8 near Yorcia, what's the position on the better camp if you don't mind my asking?

I cant see 30jp an hour happening unless we are getting double cp. That number boggles my mind. Killing acuex solo without any rings on it takes me roughly 25 kills to get a jp. In my best hour ive only been able to pull off 6jp and that was with double trizek ring and cp ring on full time.

If there is a way to make me 5x more efficient, teach me thy ways!

Oh, he was adamant about it being 30+ without double exp bonus, saying it's 60-80 when he does get the bonus. I know he brings a Cor mule, but still the difference in JP I was getting to what he was claiming was just way too far off, especially since I bring a Cor mule too lol

Working on my BST and just got a Alluv Axe augmented with Pet:DA/Crit+4 and Pet:M.Acc.+20. Should I aim for Pet:ATK or Pet:ACC on the snow slot instead of the M.Acc.+20?

Edit: I guess, for what situations are you using a Ready recast set vs. a pet DD set for Ready moves (i.e. when am I using Desulator+Merlin vs. Pet TP Axes and augmented Acro/Taeon legs)?
