Well seems we got some interesting ppl here, first off I rarely brew on Cor, so that 10k is normal ws on mobs/nm's not with brew. But when I did brew its maxed dmg (99999) (think I missed a 9). As for the part:
Quote:
Brd/Sch or Sch/Rdm mule. Etude x2 + Firestorm + Obi/Firestorm w/Relic feet +2 aug.
Obviously the Etude x2 + FS + Obi is with my Brd/Sch mule, the FS w/Relic feet +2 aug. is with Sch/Rdm mule. You ppl can't read to well when I clearly stated that I use "Cor/Blm" and have a "Brd/Sch or Sch/Rdm mule". So~ I figured it'd be self explanatory, but maybe you can understand what I meant now....right?

You're rude. And with that, ignored. :] Get well and improve.

That extra 5 STR from augmented SCH relic feet +2 was totally worth mentioning specifically.

It seems to be a bug on the site atm, lots of stuff that doesnt work.
Everything is related to items.

Relics/Mythics/Empyreans also seem to be missing from pages along with the fact that nothing has a level appearing below it.

I didn't see this mentioned in the guide, but should a good COR try to maximize damage by using quick draw as often as possible or save them to augment enfeebling effects by mages? Specifically for events like odin 2.0 and legion since most other mobs die in 2 weaponskills. I would assume that saving light shots for dia 3 would be best to help the party's damage even more than the little damage a fire shot might cause.

Odin2.0 maybe, but legion mobs die in 30 sec~1 min also. And if you have a pt of DRK/WAR locking berserk/LR, very likely they'll be capping/close to capping attack full time with 3~4 song BRD. Hard to imagine it'll help the pt more than getting you WS 6 sec faster plus WF dmg+ when fights so short.

I was taking a look at the Requiescat build and wondering what kind of damage a COR would get going 5/5 on meriting this ws? Can you get 1-2k damage out of this on 'old content' like dynamis mobs?

I only have 1 point merited in it right now, and like most merit WS, trying it out with only 1pt in it is a bad way to determine how good it is. I already have 5/5 Exenterator, so wondering how it sizes up against that for non-ranged ws for COR.

If you allready have Exen, meriting Req. just for COR is'nt worth it at all.
Exen should be way easier to gear for on COR aswell, as you allready should have loads of AGI gear with you :P

Yeah my Exenterator tears things up nicely already, i guess i'm sorta in the mood to 5/5 it for completionist's sake on COR if it can get somewhere close numbers wise.

I don't have a sagasinger or sanus ensis, so the best I can manage is getting an Apaisante/+1.

I would stay with Exenterator as well. Don't forget Requieskitty also has attack- other than a bad modifier.

ok i know lolwiki and maybe noone updated it but it say "Quick Draw's augmentation effect occurs even if Quick Draw has been resisted" or do they mean dmg resists on the 6 dmging shots? (cant check bg wiki what it says, site dont work atm for me)

Resist on damage shots is just less damage, but on Light/Dark is just a complete fail. It's the same as Dark shot->Leaden Salute. It's like pretending a failed threnody to take effect. It sucks.
They said VERY LONG TIME AGO that they'd add damage to Light and Dark shots...I'm still waiting...

If they do, I bet they'll make the sleep effect happen first, then the dmg, just to troll us.

yea i know light/dark is complet fail and dmg shots gets lower dmg when resist. Just wondered cause wiki says you get effect even when resist. I never really wanted to lightshot any mob for enhanced dia effect anyways w just wondering. So on Dark shot when it has "no effect" we also dont get the dmg+ for Leaden Salute? Or is it like normal dispel spell where no effect counts as no-resist

Dark shot has to dispel something to boost Leaden Salute dmg, if it says no effect that means nothing to dispel, and WS won't get boost.

You need to dispel something to get the bonus as far as I know.

Req is even weaker than Exen, and COR happened to be a job that doesn't get much use from Req.

I have it for BLU, and use it on pil's shield/slimes/elementals etc when I play BLU, but when I play COR I rarely need it. WF can take care of the slimes/elementals that's not fire, and QD can take care of pil shield......besides Fire elemental(which I bet majority of player won't fight on this job) I really couldn't think of a mob needing req on COR.

Unless you have BLU or PLD, you can just save merit WS for another job.
