I said shittier aka worse. Even if you don't consider a build w/o byakko's ***, it's still worse than a build w/ byakko's.

5 stacks in two days? I almost want to call BS on that, but it's been a long time since I crafted riceballs.

What id like to know is if anyones tried shogun riceballs with love halberd. Id imagine the crazy swinging would be fun regardless. Been saving lil by lil for months and got a stack of shogun. Been waiting to use em till i get the feet.

short answer; yes and thats not a bad idea, but you can also eat high att food, and have the buff all the time, not just on WS

Love halbred would make the DA procs worth less.

Because.

Let's say love halbred has a 50% double attack rate.

100 attack rounds = 150 attacks. = 50 extra attacks from love halbred.


Now let's say you have /war and some random gear and have +20% double attack.

100 attack rounds, you'll get 20 procs.


100 attack rounds w/ no love halbred or DA = 100 attacks.


So we have reg weapon

100 vs 120 attacks

Love halbred 150 vs 170 attacks.

120/100 = 20% increase

170/150 = 13.33% increase.

The more attacks you have, the less you gain from adding more, percentage wise of an increase

Hint: /BLU37, though for all I know no, he only solos on MNK. I do know he uses /BLU for Ballista, hence it being leveled.

Jailer OAT stacks with DA but does not proc on WS. Even so, the more DA you have the less effective adding more will be.

Since the inception of Astral Burning, Maat's cap doesn't mean anything anymore other than time wasted not capping your merits for your primaries or being productive irl. Sorry :/

Nothing better to respond with? I'm free to respond to posts as I wish, don't get mayad just because you forgot about /BLU.

Something ive always wondered. If DA gets worse the more you have, what is the "magic" percent to have it be the most affective?

0%->1%?

There's no magic number about it, each successive point of DA contributes less to your DPS. This doesn't make stacking DA as appropriate necessarily bad even with a Jailer or other OAT weapon in hand (though it will devalue it somewhat), just the nature of the stat.

Well, im just trying to make sense of it, the more DA you add, the worst it gets right?

Yes. Adding 5% DA when you already have 50% will do less for you than adding 5% when you had 0% previously.
