And lastly Ragnarok looks ugly compared to a huge Gold archaic scythe. Wouldn't you want to go around town with a huge gold weapon on your back? (Yes, I know it doesn't make Apoc better)
Ragnarok isn't ugly. It's one of the only unique looking relics, and Apoc is just a reskinned Demonslicer. It's huge and it's not unique, and it is certainly not pretty.

I don't think demon slicer has the wrapped handle, does it?

You're so cool, you should post some epeen WS numbers to show us just how cool you really are.

Nor does it have the symbols at the head, but both of those are just part of the skin. The model itself is identical. Ragnarok's model is not shared by any player-equippable weapon.

Original quoted post is kind of amusing to me - I prefer Ragnarok from an aesthetics standpoint and always have, but they're both huge gold weapons that hang off your back when not equipped.

That doesn't really make it any less of a reskin.

If you want a unique design make a mythic.

Ragnarok is cool and all, but NO one had one before Resolution.

Bandwagon relic will lose it's flavor when SE "fixes" it. There is no wrong way to go when you're playing DD going for relic. They are all glorious weapons.

Nerfing Reso would single-handedly push DRK back into the dark ages, no pun intended. Given that SE has stated that they don't intend to nerf DRK in the forseeable future, I don't think there's anything to worry about for a while. They may change their minds eventually, but they seem okay with Resolution's status at the moment.

1. OAT Fulgurante to start
2. Apoc for lowmanning/tanking
3. Ragnarok

As for the difference between Rag & OAT, OAT will win out against any normal GS in WS frequency, while Ragnarok's ACC+35 will allow you to use some more STR/ATT gear in place of acc gear. Then the higher DMG rating, crit bonus and hidden 2.5 damage are just the cherries on top to put it ahead of OAT.

I'm actually working on Fulgurante and Apoc at the same time, and then I'll go for Ragnarok when I get the funds and ability @_@

I made a 99 +WS Damage GS because I'm almost done with my Aegis finally which is why I didn't want to waste gil towards at 99 OAT GS. When the Aegis is done, and I don't win my Rag from the contest coming up (because we all know I won't), I'll probably work on a Rag next. In the mean time though, my +WS Damage GS is holding it's own well enough and was completely free. Most trials you can go be one of the top DD in an exp party while getting your kill shots in.

VW is nice for a comparison of weapons on a parse but you cannot compare them and think that includes all situations. Not along the lines of the OP's question but then again, neither is half this thread now!

Id like to see the MNK parse on ADL against the Resolution DRK's. Friend did 6k and 7k Reso's(99 Rag) to ADL and basically melted it down. I would love to see a monk put up those numbers. I am personally a monk fan but lets get real Spharia monk isnt going to touch ***unless the DRK is naked with 1/5 Resolution with a Tav Taco on, and even at that the DRK would still probably win

I'd like to see a DRK with ~485 STR in their WS set.

ADL is level 90 content, so probably has little to no level correction, but yeah: I get 489 WSC needed, which before alpha is ~575 STR.

So no, that wasn't a DRK. It was more than likely a Mighty Strikes WAR.

Even with 300TP and a Triple Attack you need 206 WSC or about 244 STR, when 210-210 STR is roughly the maximum without crippling your accuracy and whatnot.

Yeah, he'd have to average 7k as a baseline for misses or low pDif luck to push him down into 6ks and DA/TA or good rolls to put him up into 7k numbers.

Definitely Mighty Strikes numbers.

Perfect Defense kinda makes that pointless, since we are talking about ADL.

We forgot Souleater. Inb4 'lolResistant' because no, it doesn't kick in that fast. Still only kicks up another 1k damage, still needing in the range of 400 STR.

Souleater would need to add another 2k+.

Souleater still puts a DRK closer to those numbers. After the Blood Rage nerf, 3.321 pDif (3.075 capped crit average and CAB2) still needs 470 STR

So I'm gonna go with 'He's full of crap'.

dis, i do agree spharai isn't the weapon of choice for mnk for this situation though.
