Hello peeps, Just finished Nirvana 119 no AG, read somewhere in here that dont need tother than for looks, but anyway got a question about damage.
I need to rework my smn, yesterday on fodder mobs reisen by gob, ramuh VS was hitting for about 18k, ifrit was doing flaming 60~84k, used nirvana on both tests. Below is my lua, any pointers will be appreciated, I copied some of Perga, but looks like my VS are still lacking.

Thanks in advance

Needs Apogee Slacks path D. Also the Lua you posted still has Gridarvor, hopefully you've changed that in your actual Lua.
Your Flaming Crush build shows you already have Apogee Slacks +1, I'd suggest making those path D and you can use them for both physical & Flaming. (For Flaming, path A and path D are pretty close value-wise.)
Honestly though with no Frailty, 18k isn't that far off the mark if no multi-attacks procced. You should see it spiking higher, though, especially with all that Helios.

Im pretty sure I did but will take a look when I get back home, so basically use nirvana for both physical and magic Bp?
Apoggee slacks are path D, I read that on one your post Perga

No, Nirvana for both physical and Flaming. Continue using Espiritus (or even better, Grioavolr) for magic.
Sounds good on the slacks, put those in your Volt Strike set and damage should go up a little. Otherwise the set looks ok.

Timers is saying 20s, but i think there's a delay so 21s probably:
Edit: added back/waist pieces, re-checked and it's saying 21 now, so.. think that's lowest I can get it to go. Code
sets.precast.BloodPactWard = {
ammo="Sancus sachet +1",
head="Beckoner's horn +1",
body="Baayami robe",
hands="Baayami cuffs +1",
back="Conveyance cape",
waist="Kobo obi",
legs="Baayami slops +1",
feet="Baayami sabots",
neck="Caller's Pendant",
left_ring="Evoker's Ring",
right_ring="Stikini ring +1",
}

I have a question on the occult acumen set. If you aren't engaged, how does store TP help with TP gain? Does it trigger off of the TP gained from occult acumen?

That said, you should be able to get down to 22 without a lot of trouble. I think that only requires 512 skill.
Edit: Looking at your set, I think you probably have enough skill but might be lacking BP Recast 2. Espiritus should get you there.

I'm assuming as a SMN casting Impact you'd want as much MACC as possible while getting some Occult Acumen. Merlinic hands / feet can get +10 Occult Acumen. Campestres's can slap Store TP +10 on what would otherwise be an idle / DT / "pet engaged dt or atk but not a BP" cape .
Edit: Obvious weapons locked Derpity derp. Thanks Tarowyn ^^: Also changed to Store TP options.
Was sleeping yesterday when he requested a set and yes, this one look very good, impact all the things!
Okay I just did this only missing the Telos earring but with +11 on both the hands and feet AND Khatvanga, and from casting from 0 I got 875... that's not enough to pull off a WS, let alone a "Myrkr on demand" because I only got 471 back.
I'm not sure if I'm doing this wrong or if you guys are wrong, but something isn't adding up here.

471mp back when you finally get 1k sounds low, are you sure your myrkr set is actually swapping to maxMP gear and not staying in an engaged/default ws set?

Yeah when talking to my LS I discovered that. Again, this was mostly just testing. If this is viable I have to hit 1000, and so far it's just not there.

BPD+6 Pet: Macc+8 MAB+22 on grio does that beat espirtus? Getting conflicted answers.

I would pick which ever is more MACC if you're fighting anything not CP fodder that your are using magic pact for.

Compared to path A, it depends on your gear, but with my gear the Espiritus would be about 1% stronger than the Grioavolr, without accounting for resists. At that point you're looking at a loss of 28 magic accuracy for that 1% damage, though. I agree with Elizabet, the Grio looks good.

Finally bought draumstafir. No hidden stats, no mab (yet).
Only noteworthy thing is the 50 macc. That puts it what, 2nd behind a high aug'd grio?

<back augment="S7957970954457218543">Campestres's Cape</back> alright everyone so i'm a fresh smn extremly noob at it.
a couple questions for you all.
i thought the recast was capped at 30 seconds BP delay 1 / 2 15 each.
is there something we can do to get it lower?
also for FC i thought the best combo was a mix of BP dmg + and DA but the guide has crit hit rate on it not DA.
so whats best?

Base is -15/-15 from gear and gifts. Then there is another 8 or so from avatar's favor tiers.
Double attack does nothing of note for flaming crush. You want blood pact damage and mab for pet.
By zaxtiss 2018-08-17 09:36:17
alright thanks!
does the avatar favour change through out its time being up or does skill only matter when i use it?

There is a charge up based on how long your avatar is out up to the tier of summoning magic skill you have. Once capped it changes dynamically when you swap gear. So you can precast a bloodpact in full skill gear and swap to bp gear and get the full timer reduction.
By zaxtiss 2018-08-17 09:47:54
right on Thanks Frod.

I'm banking on it becoming best in slot magic pact staff, or getting some other goodies via augment in september. I now have all 5 staves ready and waiting for the september augmenting system.

Does anyone have a 50 PDT set without swapping out Nirvana/Elan Strap?

This is what I use. Having Udug allows you to maintain Sancus+1 over Staunch+1, though that's just a personal preference depending on situation. Feet are just for a bit of extra refresh, don't even necessarily need DM augment on the hands, just there as an option. Without Udug can swap out cape for PDT-10% from ambu cape and throw on Inyanga Body +2 for the MDT/meva then Staunch+1.
