I currently use

Carabinier's Axe and Fransisca... I kind of feel like I'm lacking.

What are better options at this point?

Thanks in advance...

PS if it helps I am Going to be using a Gandiva for Bow.

Use a kraken club and spam sidewinder. Beats Jinshu's Radiance anyday.

Fire staff, I've seen some use mekki shakki and I think theres one other staff around too. /sam is a better option in most cases as far as I know.

Name starts with an N, here's a hint. He's a fan of hard to get ***; says he can solo IT's outside abyssea on Kraken WHM+RNG, and says Ukon means ***in Japanese.

But no, seriously. with Gandiva Vulcan's probably your best bet for /WAR or /SAM? if you get Dual wield Dual augment daggers (Crit DMG+6% each) would be the best you could use. Mekki's is nice for maintaining your hit build (I have no clue how it'd work with a 3-hit WS for RNG, though. :x)

To answer Skarwind, outside aby /war and single wielding oneiros knife ideally, or an auged yata if not would win in many situations thanks to the added 10%~ crit rate. Saying this, /sam will almost always win due to the increased WS frequency (assuming 4 hit), access to sekka and meditate, and hasso helps a fraction for fstr2.

To answer OP. Carabinier's dagger is great for dualwielding, but its a lackluster option i would only use if you will need to kite.

Vulcans if you can 4-hit with it, mekki otherwise are your top mainhand weapons. Rose strap or gatta strap +1 are your best options depending on 4-hit again.

That 'other' staff would either be jupiters or the 14 ratk staff. Jupiters will usually be used by those thinking the +15% crit rate applies to ranged WSs too - which is wrong, and the 14 ratk staff is just trash full stop.

Delequiox was too poor to afford a k-club and too stupid to obtain one, so not a chance

I meritied back in the day with a few kclub rngs but one isn't really sticking out, craziest one i was with was hanayaka with that stupid sam/rng and spamming his yoichifuckinghardtoname in dynamis lol

/SAM
Mekki Shakki or Vulcan's Staff.
You need a 2-handed weapon to make Hasso/Seigan worth anything.
Sub slot: Rose Strap, Brave Grip, Gatta Strap +1

/WAR
Oneiros Knife or Carabinier's Dagger
You need a 1-handed weapon to have to job trait Fencer active.
Sub slot: I have not looked yet

/NIN
2x Yatagan augmented daggers with +5% Critical Damage each /or
Oneiros Knife / Carabinier's Dagger / Carabinier's Axe / Nguul
You are either trying to make out crit damage while turtling behind shadows, or you are trying to do something other than Jishnu's.

/COR
Appropriate HQ Elemental Staff (Typically Vulcan's)
Sub and Gear: As much MAB as you can gear. Ask a BLM or COR.
The goal here is to do magic damage with Quick Draw, and using Armageddon to WS. It takes a wildly different gear set, and is not as high damage, but is useful from time to time. An option for someone trying to use a Crossbow as well as a Gun.
