Can 6 hit be reached with Thassa? with sam sub and rajas... brutal chiv? I know it can be done with Gae Bolg, but don't know if Thassa has the neccesary delay... if it can't would a 6 hit build with gae bold hold up well you think?

It takes an average of 26 Store TP over 6 actions (melee, jumps, first WS hit) to make a true 6-hit build using a Thalassocrat or any other 492 delay weapon. This is easy to reach with /SAM, Brutal Earring, Rajas Ring, and either Askar Korazin or Aurum Cuirass. I use a true 6-hit setup and you can see what it looks like in the FFXIAH link in my signature.

gae bold

WTF did you just call me?

[SolAcension]

ok so... without aurum or askar... would a 6hit gae bolg outdo a 7hit thassa? lmao.

[Xanthe]

No.

I'm actually curious on this topic, lvl 69 DRG and fast approaching lvl 75. I have an Ares's Cuirass so dont want to use askar or aurum (dont have yet anyway). Would /sam , Rajas ring, Brutal Earring and an Echorbia(bad spelling i know +1 Store TP +4 acc ring) make a "not so true" (e.g counting the additional TP from WS first) 6 hit build on DRG using penta or drakesbane, i tried to work it out and i got that using this would put me at 100% TP for drakesbane and 101% TP for penta but only if i hit all hits, planing on using a 492 delay weapon of course.

I think the number was 16.7 TP per hit needed to get a good 6-hit setup? If you can get that, I guess it's enough...I don't see what's wrong with using Askar body for TPing in and Ares for WS though to get the most out of things. If you can get an Ares, Askar should be easy to get.

Ive passed on askar over 5 times now typical! When i had DRK it was easy to get a 6 hit with the longer delay weapons, but i guess my question is will 22 store TP get me to 100% after a full hit drakesbane in the right amount of hits?

Edit ~ i worked it out like this but i might be wrong

Thalasso = 13.3% TP per hit

with 22 store TP = 16.2% per hit

so Drakesbane would return 19.8

19.8 > 36 > 52.2 > 68.4 > 84.6 > 100.8

Is that right?

[Dragonhope]

It's not a true 6-hit build as the others would say but if it works for you, I'd say you should play with it and see.

[Requim]

While even less of a true 6 hit build, you do have barone/conte stuff to macro in for a jump, so wouldn't that shave off a bit of a hit for most of your ws? I'ld imagine you wouldn't be WS'ing that much faster than a jump timer or do you guys often find yourself gaining tp faster than jump on a regular basis? It seems that at least every 1/2~3/4 ws would be able to fit with a jump.

Do any of you guys alternate your gear to utilize the tp bonus or is that too old scool?

[transmit]

I would go try it if i could , as i said not 75 yet working on it! Dinged 70 just today in a level 10 level sync lol!

[Agana]

i think im gonna start macro'ing jumps, need to bag me a drakes ring D:

[Junyi]

You need to get forked again.

Losing 6hit for thalla+1 .. is it worth it?
with 478 I need sTP+2 to get 6 hit but I'd have to to equip chiv chain over love torque + ech ring over sniper, or white T but the later is kinda pointless/out of reach..

if u can get aurum body it's worth it otherwise I doubt worth losing 6-hit.

[Evane]

I have aurum body and still need +2 so I guess it's a no :/

[MrReinhardt]

I want that body piece >.>

[killmer]

ok i have a question...

askar body + rajas + brutal + valk fork for melee
zahak body + rajas + brutal + valk fork for melee

will the extra +3(+29) over 5 melee hits make up for the +2stp(+24) loss on WS?
assuming you need +26 stp over 6 actions to get a true 6 hit.

yes it will make up for it fine, even with wheeling thrust.
