Thank you. Would you use it on BLM too Aeronis?

This is the set I'm shooting for, although I probably won't have it completed soon with school starting :<



Trews have +4 MAB, neck slots vary on a whole bunch of things. Ice spikes active is the latent on the grip.

More often than not, I'm using Twilight Cape and the matching Obi on SCH. But weather aside I'd go with Oneiros sash :3

I would imagine they keep the obis that aren't useful at the moment in one of the satchels.

If you're in abyssea using Atma of the Beyond, you probably will.
I only have 4 obis, Ice, light, dark and thunder. Ice for nuking and light for healing. Like Chanelee said, it's not worth swapping stormspells so they only really get used if they match the current day.
I only rarely use the Thunder Obi and the Dark Obi is really for dynamis or WoE.

doesnt answer my question though, you carry 2 obi's and your standard nuking waist, what are you missing gear wise to make room for them?

I think it's safe to say that they're just lacking a certain set that you would personally use.

I think a better question would be "What are you using that you feel is better than a 2nd Obi and a standard nuking belt?" If you're nuking, then you're clearly not doing something. I play SCH the same way I play BLU. If I need to assume a role, I satchel gear that I'm not gonna use (or could afford to not use). You're not gonna be enfeebling/buffing/nuking/healing/whatever all at the same time.

even with me carrying the bare minimum for healing gear im 78/80, most of it is enhancing, fast cast, sublimation and nuking gear

I agree with some of the others. I only have ice, thunder, light obis at the moment (plan to make a dark one) and I only bring them out on that day. However, I don't think its necessary to create an obi for every element unless you really want to and have the space for it. Onerios sash is better than cognition I'm told but for kaustra its all int based so cognition belt would probably be better? I'm not sure.

I agree though with Sirafiin about dropping the whole "if you're a sch, wear an obi" pretense but it really comes down to what your personal playing style is and if you feel you need all the obis go for it.
