Well I just got back from work. I don't know what's going on at all in the game right now. Please tell me BLU became a god. There's so much I'm trying to read, but nothing mentions BLU specifically. BLU is already the best job anyway. :3
Well obviously, I just want to rub it in the face of people who don't understand a single thing about the greatest job.

Quick cure set question. How much mnd beats 5% cure potency? I've just always been using Serpentes hands/feet for cures and just now noticed that the stickied cure set is using Mavi hands/Thaumas feet. Could easily swap to that, just was surprised that beat cure potency (but I honestly never did the math, just saw 5% cure pot and was happy).

one of those looks exactly like gates of hades in the vid. the animations look pretty good though

Looks like Thurandaut boots might be the new best feet for cures.

Added new swords and in the process of editing armor sets and adding new possible armor swaps to their respective lists. Iztaasu will remain off the weapon list until we know what sort of augments we can put on it and Thurandaut Chapeau will remain out of the TP sets until the DUal Wield effect is nailed down.

Is Benthic Typhoon better then Amorphic Spikes for SCing? The set for Benthic along with the posts talking about it a few pages ago are making me wonder if I'm doing something wrong. Sorry if this is sounding like a stupid question.

Not even close really. Benthic can occasionally do a good amount of damage, but amorphic spikes is almost always 500+ damage ahead in my experience. That said, CDC > (CA)benthic with a bunch of gears lined up is great in salvage (or anywhere really, but gears are weak to piercing).

I found myself to be running out of MP constantly when I'm in new zones, anyone found if any of the new zone mobs are drainkissable?
And would also like to know what would be the best set for MP drainkiss/Magic Hammer, and which one I should equip for normal contents? much appreciated!

I don't personally use those spells though, I'll run around and see what they're good on while I'm out earning bayld though.

I would recommend you cap haste, and then add as much blue skill as possible for mp drainkiss.

still stuck in Ceizer and Yahze :3
I use those spells just to make sure my down time is less :3

Has that new fire sword been mathed out at all for off-hand DPS?

Has that new fire sword been mathed out at all for off-hand DPS? Eyeballing tells me that overall, STR shikargar still beats it.
Plugging into spreadsheet right now though
