Believe whatever you want, I'm not going to stop you from wasting your money on something that only gives you, if you're lucky, one extra drop a year from any HNM.

There good but its really just a macro piece for the last 5% of a mobs HP. Won't go into TH here but i wouldn't buy.

We got 4 w/in 10 mins a few X's a go. Just join a shell. Of all the gear you need on thf these are no way near the top.

TH+ gear only starts to get good if you have a low chance of obtaining said drop so unless you farming Novio's or double ebody drops or something the above poster is correct.

If you tp in them you have to be shot as well.

TH+ gear affects everything the same. Supposedly TH4 is a 5% increase to drop rate. That doesn't mean a 1% drop chance will now be a 6% chance. That means a 1% drop rate will be a 1.05% drop rate.

Do the math, that's almost 10,000 kills before you'd gain an extra drop, again assuming 1% base drop rate.



Now, if you assume a base 50% drop rate, you'll have a 52.5% drop rate, or one gained drop in 40 kills.


Either way, it's not worth dropping what you're doing to get them. You can argue that they help either way, but saving money on buying them or time spent in Dynamis farming for them would help even moreso.

I've seen more gear drop from TH3 thfs in my shell than when I go as TH4. I'm not saying don't get them, but if you think your drop rates are gonna increase noticeable ever, they aren't.

Honestly speaking if you buy them for farming you won't ever make your gil back before the game dies. If you buy them for NM drops then you won't notice a difference ever. It's better to join a dynamis shell and suffer through it, not worth gil.

I have read the opposite reporting that TH1 is a x1.5 increase and TH2 is a x2.0 increase with the items giving a flat 2%.

Which is why they are screamed for at hnm etc as doubling a 2% drop is still only 4% dropping an extra 2% from items is a big deal.

EDIT: by read stuff i mean to support the x1.5/x2.0

Don't really see how they are "overrated". You're a THF, not like you are there to do much else besides TH the mob :P.

Depending on how much you pay, and if you really don't want to do dynamis, you can most likely save time by farming up the gil and pay for them, than the time and effort it would take getting them form a shell.

Looks like hes winning to pay 6 mil for them which seems to be about the going rate across most servers.
