So I recently came back from a break, and am looking at some of the new gear, looking for advice on what I should upgrade, so here goes:

TP Set: (usually /sam)

Main: Cletine (Also have Fay lance aug'd with 4 Dmg and 2 Str, and Zaide)
Sub: Claymore grip/Pole strap
Ammo: Tiphia Sting
Head: Walahra Turban
Neck: Chiv chain
Ear1: Fowling Earring
Ear2: Brutal Earring
Body: Assault Jerkin
Hands: Dusk gloves
Ring1: Rajas ring
Ring2: Ulthalam's Ring
Back: Amemet +1
Waist: Warwolf Belt
Legs: Askar Dirs
Feet: Dusk Ledelsens

Drakesbane set:

Head: Wyvern Helm
Body: Nuevo Coselete (+2 Double Attack, +3 Critical hit rate)
Hands: Tarasque Mitts (Also debating on this vs Pallas bracelets)
Legs: Barone cosciales
Feet: Amir boots

Those are the only pieces I swap in for Drakesbane, but any suggestions elsewhere are appreciated

I am working on getting Askar body, head, and hands, but whether I use the head/hands will be debatable.

I don't really HNM at all, so things like Zahak mail and Heca are somewhat out of my reach, but I'm going to be starting limbus again soon.

I would say outside of doing limbus and nyzul for homam and askar, you could also start doing salvage. Work on getting stuff like ares for WS/TP gear, the hands legs and feet are cheap, the head and body are what's most expensive, but the body is pretty nice. You could also find a ZNM LS to get Aurum with, body and feet are quite nice for DRG from there. Could also upgrade back to forager's or cuch if you got the gil. Also, maybe get an assault earring in place of bushi and just macro that in for WSs. Otherwise you seem pretty good. :3

[TresDuendes]

macro in something not wyvern helm for your ws, o.hat or something accuracy..ie
work on a swift belt too, its really a staple of most melees jobs tp sets
otherwise you seem to more or less get the general idea of melee

edit: dont use bushi unless you really want to use wheeling thrust but even then..
just dont use wheeling thrust or bushi on drg

[MrReinhardt]

tell me you dont ws in the walmart turban

[TresDuendes]

you dont ws in the walmart turban

[Aleera]

Forbidden WSing in walmart turban is forbidden.

[MrReinhardt]

i missed the drakesbane set. carry on

[Argettio]

He is still TPing in Warwolf....

Obviously swift belt is the best, but until then Life belt or Sword belt +1 (depending on accuracy)

[Wolf~Knight]

til askar body I'd change ACP to 10 acc/4 stp and use Fay lance on /sam so you have a 6-hit; or keep cletine if you can get a rose grip from past.
