Drk Resolution GS / Builds

bummer =(

I don't think anything actually changes between Ragnarok and Caladbolg builds. AM3 isn't a huge increase over 16% 2.5x damage and 14% critrate in situations where you'd have AM3 up, and DRK has some really good options now as opposed to cobbling together whatever will let you get max haste without killing relevant stats. I wonder if I made an official request in the official forums in beyond polite japanese to let warrior use caladbolg, if they would consider it. Frustrating they can't when they should be able to. Or do you think logically they would believe it needs to be pld/drk only since so many GS are
sorry to derail, this post got me thinking about this again tonight
well if ya put it that way~ drk's should beable to use ukon then ~ cuz you know greataxe's are only for war and sometimes drk :P

not thread related: Really though, drains, aspirs, sleeps, stat de-buff/buffs, stun, other enfeebles, etc. And DRK still parse high. I wouldn't complain too much about a slightly lower parse (certainly they arent blasting DRK's total dmg out of the water... right? >:/) and they shouldnt be winning every time. I guess I don't know how the game has changed, but I can remember soloing/duoing/trioing and completely realizing how many situations I/we would have died if I had not been DRK. They can kill a little faster (maybe) and use voke. wut? Seriously though, from the way everyone makes it sound here, there should be something a bit better or what weaponskills already are should be better than they were made, even if it's still not comparable to ukkos... nyah? I remember what it was Raging Rush Vs Guillotine (Crossreaper and Spiral Hell as far as I was concerned was /thf 75% of the time, and Metatron Torment was for 300TP and that 100% double attack JA thing... um whatever) and we did just fine.

Guillotine was never comparable to Raging Rush

what I don't understand is that according to the lore, warrior's are skilled with every weapon type, which is shown with their pretty much high skill with every weapon class.
But drk's are basically warriors but specialize in two handed weapons(mainly greatswords/scythes)~ so why is that though a job thats skilled in everything beats out a job that specializes in in this category D:?

Guillotine was never comparable to Raging Rush IDK, I felt like I had more stable numbers and RR had more peaks, for seriously, but I was decently well geared for not being a real end gamer until the end. I was always high in parses but I think that was just total damage, not WS. cant remember really and that HDD is sitting in a drawer in a baggy... I'll just go with what you said because I know it's right ^^b

Catastrophe
Resolution is not DRK exclusive but its made for DRK mainly because WAR has not enough attack to justify using it over other options ( beside 2hr ).
Link I posted is for excel that helps to calculate avg "fTP" for WS but it can also be used to calculate avg number of hits during attack round. You just need to switch fTP in "One hit WS table 1" and "One hit WS table 2" (I also already wrote this...)

You wont get it unless you want something weaker than Resolution. Resolution is already powerful enough that ppl fear of Tanaka's balance hammer.

The only time Reso suffers is if facing a mob severely higher in level*, otherwise DRK, properly buffed, has the ability to make it do serious numbers.
*Where critws shine in comparison.

Greetings!
Upon further investigation, we've noticed that we have given Dark Knights something that makes them relevant. This falls out of our line of balance, and completely skews our vision for the job. To prevent any further misuse, the weaponskill "Resolution" will be changed to act as a slightly more powerful version of the weaponskill "Starlight".
Thank you.

One of the best options.
Rag > 90+ Cala > OAT, if keeping AM up is a problem OAT can beat 90+ Cala.
Well ***, why didn't I look at it this way? I have a reason to have both Caladbolg and OAT GS now. o.o

Since it has been a while since WS builds have been discussed, what are the best Resolution legs?
Avant Cuisses +1
Bale Flanchard +2
Whirlwind Dirs
Ogier's Breeches
something I didn't think of?

Was it verified that Ogier's Breeches are only first hit?
Simple question... What are the top GS for resolution out of the magian trials line? I have calad for myself but I am looking for something that will help the wife out. I don't really want to do another calad (unless I really need to) and I would do a ragnarok for myself before I would waste one on her. (Fuck I am a dick!)
Also, of you that have played with it.. What do your /ws builds look like?
Some of the GS I was considering....
Fulgurante:
DMG:56 Delay 480
Dmg +48 Occ. Atk. Twice
Tenebreuse:
Dmg: 123 Delay 444
Str+11 Atk+26
Kauriraris:
/WS damage +10 or TP bonus option...
I'm not a GS drk by nature so I am asking before I really get into something I don't wanna fuck with later.
Thanks for any constructive input. ^^
