Just the body really, the rest are pretty good if you don't have access to endgame stuff though
This is probably accurate, altough I'm afraid it doesn't capture the full extent of the set's beauty.
It's probably a bit better than that and it's gonna synergize really good with Vsmite if MNK will ever get a boost to it.
This set's main concern is lack of attack btw, aside that it looks splendid.
TPing in gear with, in addition to the decent DD stats, magic evasion comparable to Inyanga +1 would be nice for fights with potentially annoying ailments. At the very least, the whole set is pretty good as a "magic evasion hybrid" build.
Okay, Tornado Kick has no detectable attack boost and the 2000 TP fTP anchorpoint was a little off. 1000TP anchorpoint and mods are fine. I didn't test the 3000 TP anchorpoint.
Think the best damage potential arguably still come from Raging Fists at max buffs, Howling Fists slightly below that, and Vsmite for SC purposes or just something to spam at 1000TP.
Not sure if Godhands make Raging Fists better than Vsmite to spam at 1000 TP.
Thing is... Raging Fists has really shitty SC properties.
I don't think so, but it's close enough that it might depend on your WS gear and situation. With high (but uncapped) Attack, capped Acc, and uncapped dDEX:
VS (15488 damage)
Code
Knobkierrie
Adhemar +1 B
Caro
Sherida
Moonshade AttTP
Anchorite +3
Adhemar +1 B
Niqmaddu
Regal
Segomo (STR+ WSD)
Moonbow +1
Rao +1 B
Ryuo +1 D
Raging (13737 damage)
Code
Knobkierrie
Adhemar +1 B
Gorget : Lacono is very slightly better
Sherida
Moonshade AttTP
Adhemar +1 B
Anchorite +3
Niqmaddu
Regal
Segomo (STR+ WSD)
Moonbow +1
Rao +1 B
Herculean (custom 1) : 4% WSD, 15 STR)
The difference between them narrows at capped ratio, but I still get VS ahead.
Are those Spreadsheet numbers or parsed/average numbers?
I haven't used the spreadsheet in a while but I've been doing CP and WKRs a lot lately on MNK, and Raging/Howling are always ahead of Vsmite, which sometimes manages to get above during Impetus, but sometimes not even during that.
Like for instance earlier today I was at Apex Frogs/Jagils in Woh Gates map 1.
Buffs were really lacking: Chaos Roll (from /COR, but with a DRK in pt), Crimson Howl, Crystalline Blessing, Ifrit's DA Aura.
Not sure if the WHM was casting dia2 on each target.
With these buffs my best WS was Howling Fist. It averaged at ~7k according to Scoreboard.
Raging Fists was below that, but still beter than Vsmite which averaged at 3900ish. Lowest I've seen was 1900ish and highest spike ~11k
My acc was ~94%. Think I actually was capped and I'm under 95% because of a few swings in wrongset/without food.
My gear is pretty average, but then again it is so on every WS set. Actually Vsmite is probably my best set I'd dare to say.
Edit:
Possibly Crystalline Blessing + Godhands + Moonshade skewed damage towards Howling Fist and Raging Fists, which have far better TP scaling than Vsmite? Bet without all that TP bonus things would've been different at 1000TP
Oh, it wouldn't fix the job. But it would fix the set bonus... It is just so lame. Lustratio, Argosy and Rao are all built as no magic evasion/no hp/ws sets. But I don't see Lustratio with a set bonus of dual wield or Argosy with haste... :/
Byrth and Ramz, I wanted to touch base about Victory Smite sets. Are the OPs still up-to-date. They seem to be, but the set posted 11ish posts above differs a bit. Is your set still a work-in-progress, Byrth, or is there more to it? I'm just trying to rewrap my head around the job. I haven't used it very much since 2015. I realize not much has changed, but I'm always open to learn more. Thanks!
If they allow FTP to transfer on VSmite now we could be talking
IF they adjust WS for H2H, Stringing Pummel, Ascetic's Fury and Shijin Spiral are the really ***ones. It makes zero sense that Shijin Spiral DOESN'T transfer http://Ftp. There are only three other Merit WS that don't, Apex Arrow, Tachi: Shoha and Shattersoul are the others. Apex is a single hit, Shoha is a damage varies and Shattersoul has one of the best additional effects of any WS. Shijin Spiral? Shitty *** plague that doesn't matter at all.
But anyway, yeah, Ftp transfer on V.Smite would be pretty dope.
I gimped PUP to 1200, was considering it for MNK next, but guess I can wait. MNK can actually use my Adhemar though, so it will surely do much better than PUP...
I would bet that the WS adjustment will be to fix Tachi: Ageha and the like.
Oh SE being SE.
I've already got MNK to 2100 and probably won't ever touch it again, yet I really hope SE fixs H2H to make it competitive with other DDs for content. More job diversity is usually a good thing in a MMO.

While I would welcome a Shijin Spiral TP transfer fix with open arms, I don't think that alone would "fix" Monk.
Last I tried on the spreadsheet, even with TP transfer property, Shijin Spiral still wasn't really anything stellar.
