Friend doesn't have the neck, discussion was about whether it's really worth getting it or not depending on the %, lol.

Worth getting? Yes. Does it drop ever? No. I'm like 0/20+ right now most with TH4, I lost count due to being depressed.

You know what sucks about this? I've killed this NM 10 times DRG/BLU solo for the Varangian helm. I've tossed the DNC neck 2 times and gave it to my friends DNC mule once; and this is all while I haven't seen one helm at all. SE loves to give us what we don't need. I swear it's in the coding.

My friend came as THF with TH5(Treasure hunter atma) and I still didn't see the helm drop. D: The DNC neckpiece did though xD

Does the atma even stack with others? And really the difference between TH2 and 4 is more status then droprate lol

I really have no clue if it stacks but I'm always down to have an extra placebo effect!

Tav taco, cocoon, proper healing breath build, ethereal earring, VIT atma, etc.. go a looooooong way.
edit: I must add it's a very stressful fight solo. Anything can and will go wrong at any moment. Luck is a big factor here. If you get a mantle pierce back to back chances are you're dead.

I don't understand what ffxi calc has anything to do with it since you won't give me any info (mainhand weapon/tp you're getting/etc...) making a calculator useless

Unicorn.Tarowyn said: I don't understand what ffxi calc has anything to do with it since you won't give me any info (mainhand weapon/tp you're getting/etc...) making a calculator useless its simple
auric dagger has 201 delay, and gives 5% dual wield
kartika gives 201 delay
doesnt matter what other weapon you use as long as you use it for both
auric dagger without charis necklace
kartika with charis necklace
how hard was that

You surely didn't just test 1 hit and make sure they're the same since that won't tell anything. Or are you just eyeballing the delay or what.

Or are you just eyeballing the delay or what. i tested to 100 tp, i get exactly 5tp per hit, if charis gave less than 5% dual wield i would have ended up with more than 100 tp
and btw, yes calc has it's uses, it has the dual wield items on it verified by people that have tested it repeatedly.

Wow, you're really bad at testing stuff like this.
As for calc, of course it has it's uses but you need stuff like DATA to make it useful. Something which you've given me none of, lol.

5 tp per hit to 100 tp is 20 hits, 2x for 2 kinds of tests.. is a 40 hit sample..thats not that bad, but its more than enough if you know your gear sets well and how much tp/hit you get....

it's called google, bg, allakazam, etc etc etc, you aren't looking hard enough.

Actually, work blocks pretty much all of the other ff related sites other than this one and I tend to get lazy about searching when I'm at home. Wiki has a useless test on it that gives about as much info as you do.
As for TP itself, you seem to overestimate how big a difference .02 DW will actually make in TP gain, it's totally possible for it to not change how fast you get to 100TP depending on your build. And if you'd only tell me like 3 simple things (main hand delay/STP/DW gear) I could double check it but you feel the need to just spew empty statements.

also i would have noticed a change since with my setup even the 3% dual wield from mirke shows a difference.
By yunalaysca 2010-09-28 02:20:06
also i didnt mention wiki for obvious reasons
Is their a current cap that we know of for dual wield?
I ask because I TP in 10% Dual Wield added onto our traits and am thinking of picking up an Auric Dagger soon with Ls. In events I mostly Act as a DDer unless we lowman and then I'm either the tank (Khalamari) or main healer (Salvage). But I'm trying to get my gear finished up atm for TPing and before I add on anymore Dual Wield I was wondering if their is a cap.
Currently Tping in 25% Haste (35% Haste Samba), and a total of 40% Dual Wield including our Job Traits/Gear
