Windbuffet isn't consistent. It does jack ***for 97/100 weaponskills.

but it does OMFG DMG 3%... isn't that reason enough to use it? I don't get why you rather not Proc trip/quad attack at all than proc it 3% of the time.
That's HIS argument actually. The reason you should use it is because it increases your overall average.

They might (haven't checked), but at that point you'd be better off using Avant +1 than either of the above.

I was just playing with the math some.

If ACC is uncapped (94.1%acc is the break even point), then Elemtal belt pulls ahead.

Conserve TP procs return ~70 TP after 100 weaponskils.
Windbuffet procs return ~14 TP after 100 weaponskills.

"If Conserve TP procs, it saves a random whole amount of TP between 1 and 20 TP. This is not a percentage reduction like Conserve MP or Blood Boon, but a straight random amount of TP saved. " -bgwiki

The average tp saved is ~10, times 7% proc from belt is 70.
ah, I miss understood. carry on.

So at 1% under cap Ele Belt starts to win. That's pretty significant.


In certain situations I'd agree since the 2nd hit doesn't get the ACC bonus.

An assumptive statement would be T6 or higher mobs use Elemental belt, anything lower use Windbuffet.

Could I butt in and ask; is Windbuffet just better for Shoha? or Fudo as well, or is that still Beir Belt +1?

I Fudo in Windbuffet for 3 reasons:

1) Inventory.
2) 400k.
3) If I'm using Fudo, it's mainly for AM, so I'd prefer a spike every now and then over a few extra digits.

Might be stupid reasons but I'm a stupid cat.

Stupid question, but wasn't it determined the fTP doesn't carry over to the second hit of shoha?

Fenrir.Nightfyre said: »
Resolution, Entropy, Blade: Shun, Requiescat, Realmrazer, Ruinator, Last Stand off the top of my head. Upheaval doesn't, Exenterator doesn't, Shoha doesn't, Shijin doesn't, Apex Arrow is one hit, and iirc Shattersoul doesn't.

This quoted section was mentioned in a Requi thread on here and Nightfyre does a lot of good math stuff. So if that is the case wouldn't the ele belts lose horribly? I still use windbuffet personally and have had no real issues. I like the occasional 4800+ shohas.

Correct, the fTP doesn't transfer to the second hit on Shoha like it does on some of the other merit WS. The only time Ele Belts pull ahead are when your second hit's acc is uncapped (which is only a problem on a handful of mobs at the moment) since the second hit doesn't get the massive acc boost that the first hit gets.

Basically:

Fudo in Beir+1 if you use it for more than AM and inventory is not a problem.

Windbuffet's effects on fudo are far less dazzerling than compared to shoha.

They are if you need the accuracy, otherwise mala and windbuffet are better.

If you're strictly talking about Shoha vs Stardiver, Draca will win.
Masa's ODD will make it pull ahead though.

Oh, I know, that's why I TP in store TP- gear to cancel out my natural store TP.
Oh my gawd. My soul is dying. Even as satire it hurts.

Reminds me of the mock sets I make full of subtle blow and slow+ for thieves. Those darn TP feeders.
