The Last Dance: Gearing Paradigms for a New Age
Anyway, I'm not ready to write it up yet, but this is why I'm super excited to write up the Voidwatch Section:

DNC102: TP Phase more or less done for the moment, so yeah.
This thread is simply awesome so far, good job there. I had a question about the Waltz Potency cap. I know they spoke of altering it, but does anyone know if they changed it yet, what the cap is now, and if not yet, when and by how much they will alter it?
I know right now the cap is 30% (assuming it hasn't been updated yet) whats the best parse atm? kparser not working for me

Bismarck.Sylow said: » Just as an FYI, early reports from Byrth's end of the woods show that the "Enhances Saber Dance" is an additional +1% Double Attack rate to the floor value (20% currently) of Saber Dance per merit level (up to +5% for a total of 25% Double Attack), must be worn for the effect to take place. This is absolutely not official as of yet, but I figured you might be interested. Looks about time to 5/5 Saber Dance 8) Currently @ 17000 experience points to go, FML. This is official now. I posted the graph that shows it on the bg thread that you pulled the other quote from. I didn't have time to make the graph before I got on the airplane.

I still have no real idea what the closed position enhancement does, but I think CP is going to bear the brunt of my merit reassignments so it probably doesn't matter for me. It's not Acc or Crit rate. With 0/5 CP and AF2+2 legs, I'm going to get a hell of a lot less evasive. Well, at least you can use Exenterator.
True, -20 accuracy makes up a lot of the 30 evasion I'll lose. Also, we technically pick up a little evasion from Brego Gloves.
Which I have as of yet been too cheap to buy! (Mostly because I've been spamming beetle for
Heh, I still need to get a VW climb group for the new content.
I've just been spamming it with shout groups. Thinking about starting a group over here on Bismarck from the ground up. Could be fun.
I've got everything up to the last update, but I haven't done Voidwatch since the update hit. Heck, apart from wasting almost a day of my life in the den and doing Dynamis, I've hardly played since the update hit!

 1.) They're awesome. 2.) You can easily get 7-10k XP in a duo fighting DC mobs in Tav (and make a nice chunk of gil doing it). I made ~7k this morning solo (cuz I got drunk last night and passed out at the hieroglyphics waiting for friend), and this is including all the time I spent dead because everything in Tav explodes. 3.) XP rings count. Get one. 4) It bothers me heavily that they're a different shade of black than AF3. 5.) I wear my rings/earrings in this order not because it's better or worse, but specifically to piss off Austar. Anyway, now that that's done, I can get on to DNC 201: Waltzes, Sambas, and Weapon Skills. You can grab a bit of a preview if you check the item sets on my character page. :)

lol that mantis is covering it's name and it says "unab" :3
Fenrir.Leoheart said: » lol that mantis is covering it's name and it says "unab" :3 Seeing as I had forgotten about the blaze spikes and was engaging with ~100hp, he pretty much was right. I just want to point out how hideous I look now with my tights being the wrong shade of black, and brego gloves being absolutely horrible.
Bismarck.Sylow said: » Is that augment on the test server or the real one? I assume for you to get the enhance effect you'd have to have the legs on the entire time while saber dance up.... Kind of concerns me a tad since will probably have to adjust "some" sets for TP/haste to fit in for the AF2+2 pieces in terms of haste....just so happens that these are only 1% less haste then AF3+2 legs but don't have the run down on the others.... Real.
There's no real adjustment to make except for wearing those pants when Saber is up. None of the other options to get the lost fraction of a percent of haste are particularly worth it. Um, none of the other AF2+2 items are really worth TPing in. So I don't know what you'd be trying to adjust there lol Bismarck.Sylow said: » Um, none of the other AF2+2 items are really worth TPing in. So I don't know what you'd be trying to adjust there lol Haha that's not what i meant lol. Generally I wear AF3+2 legs for.....pretty much anything....haste/tp, evasion what have you. Now to say I "had" to have AF2+2 legs on the entire time saber dance was up to get the affect...couldn't use AF3+2 legs while I do it.... Which generally I have my haste set up when I do that...... but like I said I suppose the -1% haste won't be that much of a lost.... Just remember it's 1% per merit level. 5/5 saber dance or bust.
Bismarck.Sylow said: » Just remember it's 1% per merit level. 5/5 saber dance or bust. Unless voidwatch...i seem to be tanking something...so I end up doing 3/5 Fan Dance 2/5 Saber Dance >< Well, pretty soon Fan Dance will have a 3:00 timer at all merit levels, sooo may be time to switch.
I'm currently 5/5 Saber, 4/5 NFR, 1/5 fan. I will probably be switching to that merit setup as soon as I start playing again.
yeah im currently 4/5 saber 5/5 nfr and 1/5 fan until i augment my body, 77TP gain just feels odd for the time being.
edit: speaking of body, i was toying with it in dyna yesterday, i think the body does indeed have violent flourish effect 2, the stuns seems to stick better and last longer. |
