Aside from that, the delay and +5% Crit rate are a nice bonus if you want to work on a X-Hit build and want to improve your DoT instead of just focusing on WS. Base damage is low compared to Gram though, so Jingang FTLooks.
A perfectly geared mnk and war will still have no problem outparsing drk based on the last few that I have done, but it is pretty clear that drk is the next best thing if played correctly (I consider myself pretty well geared, and I have outparded emp mnk and war too. However, the good emp mnk and war are miles ahead of your normal emp mnk and war). Rikura's mnk and war are just way too powerful....
Once mnk and war get their nerf, the gap will be closer. This is mostly on T6 VW, so it is very obvious that the critical hit WS got a huge advantage over the none-crit WS on those.
If you're getting outparsed by mnks as drk you're doing it wrong.
I would rather say war-sam > war-sam > drk > mnk
This is the set I use for resolution. Ragnarok will definitely win due to dot. I don't worry about a hit build because I use discipline and coercion and usually a cor using misers roll which gives me 50+ tp return from resolution

To each of their own tbh. I usually have absolutely no problem outparsing SAM, even on my Drg. Mnk it really depends, I outparse them regularly as Drk, but like I said, Rikura is a different story.
I guess I have not seen a real SAM, and you have not seen a real MNK and let's just put it that way.

DA - 5% and no Brutal? Hmmm.
What were you trying to prove by posting my old Reso set?^^
Edit: There, just for you, I updated my set :D enjoy^^
For this set, on higher level mobs (thinking VW etc like Ig-Alima etc) would you recommend Grim Cuirass/+1 or Ace's Mail for Resolution? Also, any other improvements?
I know people like Heafoc for hands, but avant +1 has like 27 more acc than those so that's iffy for me.

For top tier like Ig, Ace's and Avant+ for sure. Most DDs are parsing 60-75% acc on him.
WS - Same for Resolution and Torcleaver minus the soil belt/neck, because stacking a 60% lol VIT mod and then multiplying it by 0.85 level correction = not even worth it to me.
Those items will add 27 vit * 0.6 *0.85 = 14 WSC, in exchange for less acc, and less str. Assuming capped attack, 14 * 4.75 * 2.25 = 150~ damage. It's not insignificant, in fact after doing the math I think I am going to add a bit of vit.
I'm thinking as a TP set. Is -14 Subtleblow a huge issue with a OaT Gsword? I could probably swap to an Ogier's Surcoat ideally.
Blitzers might be Haste+3/DA+2 or Haste+3/Acc+7
It honestly doesn't look bad on the eyes either. For some reason the fuglyness of Ace's Mail/Blitzers matches.

Hey Skarwind what race are you?
Hume, sadly shoulder pads on things look better on Elvaan but yeah.

Ahh would WS sets posted here be ideal for a Taru DRK too? or as a Taru you need to pile even more STR/attack per slot including the weapon..

They should be ideal, Race isn't a huge factor on stats really. Being able to merit 12 STR pushes you past what you would normally be anyways.
So keep on rocking that Taru DD and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Simple question... What are the top GS for resolution out of the magian trials line? I have calad for myself but I am looking for something that will help the wife out. I don't really want to do another calad (unless I really need to) and I would do a ragnarok for myself before I would waste one on her. (Fuck I am a dick!)
Also, of you that have played with it.. What do your /ws builds look like?
