Does Murky Mantle have a proper use case? Outside of T1/2 nuke spamming where the high mDMG is putting in work, where would this be used even at R15?

I know Alabaster Mantle is worse than an Ambu Cape, but considering theyre both "all jobs", the number of jobs that make use of weapon skills is atleast quadruple the number of jobs that would make use of magic damage.

I think for ninjutsu it's solid maybe if you wanted a stronger helix(reive capes still better for duration) otherwise just seems like a worse ambu cape that saves you inventory at the cost of lots of wasted time not getting matter

Even for Helix that seems useless, unless its a target you cant hit cap.

Hey im just listing them off, its honestly in a worse spot than the WSD mantle imo since while it has higher mdmg its got no mab and worse INT which for the higher tier nukes is gonna favor the extra INT and mab since its already got a high base, so you're stuck with ninjutsu and helixes and their much lower base/INT mod

I appreciate that, thank you. I was trying to list the gear for my friends and what it would be used for.
