Been messing with full ares vs heca head, ebody+1, heca hands +1, onyx, heca feet...maybe maybe slightly better on HNMs, gonna keep trying them both out.

Anyone else think the acc on cata is annoyingly low esp when you need the drain lol.

I always seem to miss when I need it the most....

The higher Atk and fSTR boost will outweight the slight 1-2 WSC lost, if that.

Just like Tachi: Y/G/K, you're going to notice misses much more than people using multi-hit weapon skills, simply because the chance of a full-miss is significantly lower when you're swinging three+ times.

Your accuracy is still going to be capped most, if not all of the time.

just need asa legs and blitz

[Mogar]

Use Pizza, take off Ace's, Ulthalam's and put on Blitz and Turban.

Is full ares even good for Guillotine?

Seems like it's more of a penta set for war/drg, and jumps.

[Hyriu]

mix/match is way better

Full Ares is good for when you are weak in campaign and in whitegate. And terrible players like myself still use it for cata even though the math wizards say otherwise.

Poor taint. I'll sport it with ya

It sucks that they didn't make full salvage sets optimal for more situations, kind of makes getting every piece not as cool.

[Uyo]

DRK is @69 now!

Now just need to work on them damn Homam stuff -.-;

I don't think you're terrible at all, and quite frankly, people are free to use whatever gear they'd like. The only thing I have a problem with is when people speak as if their decisions are optimal, when its extremely easy to prove that they're not(and full Ares isn't optimal for anything, Jump and Penta Thrust included).

scythe/Gsword TP

Guillotine/insugency WS(just add flame gorget for insurg when i finish it)

Imporvements will be gorgets for WS & fire bomblet when some of my crap sells. Other than that anything else is really out of my price range atm but im relatively happy for now.

Well grats on 75drk!

Yeah I think you know the obvious upgrades for TP: Cuchulain's mantle, berk +1/E-body, Fire bomblet, torques etc.... Also, I'd personally go with Assault earring over Fowling earring if no Abyssal earring yet/or don't plan on getting it for whatever reason...but that's just my opinion anyway....

Also, why do you use a Naglering GS with no 6hit ?

The 85dmg with 501 delay is actually not very good in terms of DPS...for such high delay, 85dmg is pretty low; however, the whole point of that high delay is to have a 6hit build with it...there is no point in using Naglering if you don't even have a 6hit with it. It has already been proven that other GSs can perform better than Naglering on weaker mobs if you have the gear(StoreTP mainly, and one very important piece that has made this possible now is Rose strap of course) to make them work, and to be honest I'm not too sure that the attack+20 on Naglering will be the deciding factor that will make naglering better on higher level mobs compared to other GSs(in fact, I think that with the proper gear, merits, and storeTP the other GSs should at least be equal or pretty damn close to Naglering at least, and at best...they could probably be a little better depending on your accuracy,your merits, your buffs, playstyle perhaps.., the mob's defense on the higher level mobs where GS is pretty good( specially with no or little outside buffs) etc. and this is coming from someone who owns a Naglering too, not that that means much to anyone probably, but just saying....), but anyway..that is a whole other topic that I will not get into here.

The point is that your Naglering GS gear set, judging from your pics, does not give you a 6hit with it...which is the main thing that Naglering has going for it..."easiest GS to 6hit."

Finally,

Head for GS WSs: Heca head > DRK AF+1 head > the Champion's Galea with your augments. (hmmm and Heca body > berk/berk+1 for GS WS too, but you probably don't have heca body, just saying...)

Ammo for GS WSs: Bomb core > Fire bomblet

As for Scythe WSs: Bomb core can be > than Fire bomblet if you don't need the acc+ (but that will depend of course on the rest of your gear, buff, and what you are fighting etc...), which should be fairly obvious, but I'm just listing the things I could think of

Overall though, your gear is pretty good considering you just hit 75 lol... grats again.

[Torak]

thanks for the info jazz, yeah i need to look into some of this this stuff for my drk.naglaring is the only Gsword i have at the moment not counting ferrara. no heca other than feet, just got chaos hands + 1 so waiting for next set of apollyon & temenos items to drop. as for the other stuff im still farming up notes so to speak for my rose strap and trying to get gil when i can since i dont have a solid means of income. Give me a little time though and il come into my own
