I have Ares's, and access to Aurum and Zahak's. What's the best of the three? Been a drg for awhile now and I have good equipment, but I've never found a definite answer to what body to use during WS. I'm wondering if anybody has a definite answer, or parse results showing the differences between the bodies.

p.s. Talking about Drakesbane of course. I don't use penta much anymore.

[Aleera]

Zahak's for Drakes.

[XsilentX]

Never use ares over either or those. but aurum

[Evane]

From personal experience I'd say Aurum.

[Xanthe]

Zahak's Mail plus Claymore Grip for Drakesbane.

[Vawtwee]

Ahhh, Xanthe, the person I really wanted to respond, lol. I remember you doing some tests saying that aurum had come out a good deal higher than ares on birds, but ares pulled ahead in events that had mobs with higher defense. BUT now I know. Thanks everybody.

I was curious myself if I should save up for Zahak's or go with N body.

I personally would go with Zahak's, although I'm not too high on Zahak's + Claymore grip. Double attack ftw for me. 6% Crit 2str/dex vs. 15 attack 2% DA just seems like a no brainer even for a crit hit weaponskill. Aurum+Pole grip with spike higher, and less often, but will average higher than the other. It's all up to you.

[Aleera]

I personally use the ACP body with Crit+3/Att+10 on it because I can't afford zahaks, my shell doesn't do enough tygers for me to get aurum and Im saving ls points for love torque when we finally fucking do jol. c.c And when I'm done getting that I need to save a shitton of points to get hachi legs from cerb so I can afford ares body.... lol So I just stick to TP in askar and WS in Nuevo for now.

Why do you need a linkshell to do any T4 ZNM?

My financial status wouldn't be nearly as glorious if I didn't farm Sarameya so often.

Why not?


Fix up, look shaaaaaaaaaaaaarp...

[Aleera]

Yeah, I'm not understanding what you expect from me.. I don't have any job that can solo ZNMs or know people who could/would low man them with me, and I wouldn't bother when my LS does them frequently. Grats to you if you do, but that's not my cup of tea. I'm patient and I do fine without certain gear, so I have no problem waiting on my LS for stuff.

You have a BLM that I know of, and most likely RDM close to 75 as well. Doesn't take a lot to low man most ZNM, just bio and some patience.

[Aleera]

72 and 71, with no intentions of leveling them further. lol But I'm pretty content with the gear I have for DRG right now, just missing my torque really, and the few pieces of Ares I need. And heca boots. >.> We don't do sky much.. lol Otherwise I'm fairly happy with my DRG.

[Kaparu]

You can't solo T4 ZNMs, but you can sure as hell make pickup-alliances for them. Even if everyone is retarded, its hard to wipe to a T4 with 18 people.

didnt your blm used to be 75 when we were in the same ls

[Aleera]

That's shenanigans! Regardless, I'm not gonna do pick up parties for something my LS already does. -.- I'm not that in need of anything. The only thing I really want is my love torque and a few pieces of ares..

[TresDuendes]

but if you need the haidate to pay for cuirass...?

[Aleera]

I'm not in any rush for it, but my shell has 2 cerb pops we just finished.. So it won't be long before we do them soon. We're constantly doing ZNMs so it's just a matter of time, and shouldn't be long anyways. Why do people have to hound me to get shit right away? I'll get it when I get it.

[TresDuendes]

no reason to do things the hard way when easier alternatives are presented to you
