Has anyone attempted to make a decent Yu set? Just curious if it could do decent damage non-brewed. If anyone has what would be the best set/atma's to use for it?

Atmas for it, if you really wanted to go nuts on Yu, would be ultimate/noxious fang/ (i think) Hell's Guardian also has superior MAB+... if not, use Beyond, since it has 30 or so MAB... if you're going for a full Yu set, get 2 MAB+ int+ katana, they are mad easy to get, and pump on the dmg a decent bit... or get 1 MAB/int and 1 "WS dmg+10%" katana to mainhand... I have a jutsu nuking set for my nin, and the 2 sets (jutsu nukes and Yu) are basically the same thing...

I've had good results using various combinations of the following:

Ultimate/Beyond/Tusked Terror and/or Noxious Fang (I don't have Hell's Guardian)

/RDM, Ascetic's Tonic, +INT food, Innin, as much Magic Attack Bonus as you can get.

Like Eikechi said, your :Ni/:San nukes and :Yu are basically the same.

:Jin will still out damage :Yu, but the damage with :Yu is like 99% consistent.

YU mod = INT and STR

I would say get Yasha Head (+7 INT)

or the new STR INT HEAD that is way over priced lvl 90

Even if this makes sense (not sure if it's near the best advice or not), don't listen.

As funny as that was, you should calm down, it wasn't slam your fist on the table funny. This is what I picture when you capitalize "lol".

It doesn't make sense, just get a Maat's Cap.

I used to see it all the time before he left my server. Who says God doesn't answer prayers?

I actually prayed he would go to Asura first, but then I decided to be non-specific.

What's funny is when he tries to talk to me like we're friends. "Hey bro, long time no see." Of course, it's nowhere near as grammatically correct as that.

Tried that before, it's actually more effective to kill it with fire.

MAB/WaterAttack(Atma only afaik) is the best way to go probably. Basically what Elkechi said. Demon's Rings augmented with MAB, Moldavite/Hecates/Novio Earring, Augmented Body from ACP?.

Still without a brew I doubt it's worth anything over going full DD, but if you're just trying to get amber light I'd stack MAB.

Even going for Amber, would probably be better off with Aeolian, honestly.

Here's the problem with Blade: Yu. *Assuming we aren't talking about brewing, in which case you're a *** moron for not aeolian-ing multiple NM's*

It's dex and int, not str. You're given the opportunity to use RR for the 50 dex (WS mod) and overall DOT ... even if you combine it with two MAB atmas it won't come close to jin or hi. Therefore, you'll be stuck in the middle of abyssea with two shitty atmas and forced to do one of the following:

1. Put out bad Jin/Hi numbers and feel stupid.
2. Put out horrible Yu numbers and feel even more stupid.
2a. Ignore RR and use a third MAB atma, your Yu's will be better but your overall DOT will be absolutely pathetic.

End result: Building for Blade: Yu will make you feel stupid and pathetic.
