So I guess they released the armor and the augments you can place on them.

Mirke waldecors: HP+10 MP+10 STR+5 DEX+5 AGI+5
MNK/THF/BST/RNG/NIN/BLU/COR/PUP/DNC

Notable augements for RNG are: RACC+10, RATK+10, Critical Hit Rate +3%, "Store TP" +4 "Subtle Blow" +4, Enmity -5, "Snapshot" +5%
(You can only choose two)

If I would get this for RNG I'm thinking RATK+10 and Enmity -5, I think it would be hot for WSs, though idk how Osode would still compare to that. Also thinking since RNG doesn't many opinions for a TP body piece here we could create a very decent TP piece. Anyways discuss.

+Ratck/+Snapshot TP Piece would be my choice for a /ra ranger.

I'm thinking +10acc/+critical and tossing my P Body.

[Eject_NC]

+Ratck/+Snapshot TP Piece would be my choice for a /ra ranger.

yep.

ill still barrage in my pahluwan body and maybe ws still in osode.

[Zaiel]

Yeah Snapshot and RATK would be nice, didn't think of that.

[Lambtor]

snapshot and enmity- for those drawn out HNM or god fights. DoT it'll still be your piece but you can WS in osode in exp situations. but it would be almost as much dmg as osode on DoT for those fights you want to avoid crossing the hate line, like odin or ixion.

right now we can compare this piece to archer's jupon to osode in dmg on WS if you choose the ratk+10 augment. i really wish one of the options was an additional str+6 agi+6.

You mean as a single combined augment? Because otherwise you're basically asking for a Kirin's Osode.

I'm thinking +10acc/+critical and tossing my P Body.

In case you havent noticed, crit hit on rng isnt exactly hot. It only gives an extra 20-25% damage in comparison to 40-100% for other jobs. Your much better off getting ranged acc and ranged attack, and subbing in str in another slot that has ranged acc. For instance, if your uses behemoth ring, substitute with rajas or Triumph Ring or something >.>

[rambus]

if you pick 10 attack and acc it would be the best barrage piece ( lol kudri)


you could do attack and snap, is there anything where you need acc on body to tp in?

in a damage perspective how does 10 str vs 5 str and 10 attack do on range attacks?

what would the best bodies to carry around if you got this? use KO for ws, tp in attack and snap and barrage in p.body/ af/ kodairi?

osode is the obvious to ws in.
for tp, mirke might be the best if snapshot is added on. just for the lower delay on ranged attacks. doesnt really matter what else you put on (r acc or r att)
for barrage, pln body or af body just for the 10 accuracy. if you really want attack and accuracy on a body piece, you can just spend the few million its (not) worth and get a kyudogi.

[Mercu]

Nah when this is out the Kyudogi will be a waste of gil. There's already a lot popping up on the AH

[DoA]

[quote]In case you havent noticed

[rambus]

if you did acc and snap, you would not need AF/pin

if you did attack and snap, you need 3rd to lug around for barrage right?

guess its up to person porb best to use the 3 and put attack on it

Who the hell use Emperor/Empress Hairpin at 75.

Who the hell use Emperor/Empress Hairpin at 75.

and yes i meant str+6 and agi+6 in a single augment, similar to the way they have store TP and subtle blow on the same line. then it'd be a true replacement for osode. i really don't think throwing 10 ratk is a great choice when you've got the ability to overload on ratk with food gear and VS in several other places. i also don't think it's a great idea to consider this as a af1/pln body/skadi body replacement for racc. mainly because you can get that racc elsewhere. imo opportunities like this are where you want to pick enhancements you can't get anywhere else.

if it were available i'd probably go with str+6 agi+6 and snapshot+. just because i'd know for sure it replaces osode.

[Spider-Dan]

Since the comparison is about bodies, I'm guessing he means pln, not pin.

I don't think the goal is to replace osode.

Even so, it still wouldn't replace osode for an xbow RNG.

No I will stick with my idea because of my Kclub, thanks.

Edit ~ Just so everyone is clear, Ranged Attacks NOT RNG. Mellee criticals receive a much larger multiplier than a Ranged attack.

I've been thinking this over also and I think I will just get the piece for NIN or not worry about it at all.

Possibly a stupid question, but why not?

[DoA]

MND is the modifier for Holy Bolt damage.

KO + Suzy boots are just about enough MND to keep you hitting the cap.
