Pup PDT And MDT Sets

post your pdt and mdt sets (for pup)! trying to get ideas because there can be alot of gear missed.. i'll try and make up some sets right now and post them, i'll probrably include my current sets

Edit: also how much -mdt do you need with shell5? -25%mdt?

Sorry if this is a HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE set. I dont play PUP but I am bored enough to try to make a set since noone replied.


this is -43%, some of this stuff(cough Dring) isnt too easy to get.

For Shell V, iirc you only need like -30%

Shell V needs 25~26% (fractions system, same ***as haste basically).

with our automaton casting shell 5 on us we shoudl only need 25-26% mdt, can we find good mdb, magic evasion, and just plain magic resist gear beyond the -26% mdt? i have an idea i'll post in a bit but i'd like to see others

mnk's mdt set.

I couldn't be bothered to make another itemset for the set I use as pup, well I say use the macro is made but the job is still at lvl 90.

I swap the mantle for colossus, minerva for -5 mdt/pdt ring and obviously leave in animator and the rest id leave as haste/tp gear not hp gear contrary to what Josiah is suggesting. Would be better on mnk and pup imo to swap only to max mdt >> mdb >> haste. Increasing max Hp is meh if ur swapping to this set briefly for a period of time ranging from 1/10 of a second to 3 seconds when ur about to take magic dmg / see a mob casting on you thats not much time for a healer to cure you that extra ammount of hp you added to your mdt set so I dont see why you would add it. It would be more beneficial to keep haste in there and to try interrupt the mob and keep dot high.

Feet are +2 mdb and +2 haste if youre wondering.

made one quick :



Could use these too :

Cap is 50% using the information here you can work out yourself how much mdt youd like to reach.

Finally if you obtain this earring :

Then you can cap with about 21% mdt in gear I think.

is there any otehr mdb gear in the head/body/hands/legs that can go with those awesome feet? otherwise i think i want to try to cap mdt in accessories and use full goliard set

Goliard Set is actually MDT-10% not MDB.

Wait, seriously?

According to wiki, yeah.

Set: "Magic Def. Bonus"(Magic Defense Bonus is a 10% Magic Damage reduction)

Assuming they worded it weird and meant 10% MDT.

11 MDB is still less than 10% taken.

The difference would be readily apparent if you applied additional MDT from another source such as Shell V.

Several years too late but if true, would have been great to know back when I played BLM since that's a substantial improvement in available MDT gear.
