Uggy pendant is 7.6 or 8 MATK depending on who you ask. Knowing that you can figure out the rest.

Are you asking if 2 MAB is better than 8 MAB?

It depends on your SJ, if you have MP merits you might not be able to get the Uggy pendants latnet to go off. And in some cases you will want to have MP, like if you're /WHM or /RDM

Shit be situational really lol, its a nice free MaB piece for ppl that cant afford the uggy, so it has a valid use regardless~

uggy will give you better results if you have a means to activate the latent, which is normally often the case seeing as a max dmg quick draw set ur /blm

maybe a /nin piece for ppl with MP merits?

You should at least look up how an item latent functions before commenting on it.

Ug Pendant is perfect for any sub job that does not have MP, you do not need MP to activate the Latent, if you macro it in it see's you 0/20 MP assuming you had 0MP in the other gear.

Latent Activated.

Corrderio is right though, Ug pendant is pretty useless on a none MP sub if you have more then 2 MP merits though, it would make it next to impossible to activate latent.

Caract Choker is alright if you can't afford or are waiting on a group for a Ug Pendant then it's good to have I guess.

For being free, it's a pretty solid alternative to uggalepih...and unless you're doing a lot of events requiring a really strong quick draw build, I might actually prefer it because there's no latent to worry about.

Unfortunately I've defeated a legion's worth of sky mobs only to ever see one brown chest pop, and I got the combination wrong. At least if you buy uggalepih from the auction house, you're guaranteed to go 1/1.

What is you have Moldy AND Novio though? sad.gif

I don't have any MP merits on my Taru so I am unsure exactly how they work, I assumed you'll always have a MP pool of 80 if you're 8/8 MP regardless of Main/Sub.

In -THIS- respect (and mostly -only- this respect), I treat corsair like a mage job. I have a reset macro...call it town gear, call it standing around gear, whatever. Includes most of my JA-enhancing items (Commodore Frac & Tricorne, Luzaf's Ring, etc.) and all of my MP-down gear (Cassie Earring & Intruder Earring).

So I give my MP a quick check and if I'm over 40MP, I hit it before I QD.

I do have mp merits, though. And when I'm outside of Conquest zones it gets to be too much of a hassle to force my MP down in -some- situations. So I actually plan on farming one of these up for the purpose of using it on /whm or /rdm.

MP merits are still just MP. They're countered by -MP gear. So when you put it on, it drops your MP. And if your MP merits are your only MP, Cassie Earring -- when equipped and then unequipped -- will put you at 30/80. Therefor triggering Ugg. Pendant.

Two Physical Earrings will work as well - takes an extra inventory space but saves you 600k.

I actually use mine in my ranged attack macro (daytimes) instead of a triumph anyhow. Saves me inventory elsewhere and it's a multi-purpose earring that sacrifices one str for 50 hp. It's still a compromise in the other direction, but my inventory space is precious, especially on corsair. Sometimes I'll even leave the Fenrir Earring behind and full-time Cassie if I'm really pressed for space.

What?

You equip enough MP- gear to drop your MP down enough, or if you're on a mage sub cast enough spells to drop it down. Then you put your QD pieces back on and QD. I used to do it manually when soloing on /NIN, since you only really need to do it once. I would just swap in cassie for novio or moldy, and then swap novio or moldy back in. Simple.
