So for aggressive roller's i'd say its good, a beneficial boost to Phantom roll?

Things like Optimal Range I would need some examples of where people get to shoot at Optimal range. From what I remember its around the 6" mark or just outside of melee range? The Random Deal effect is useful for COR's that give a damn about it, Ammo Consumption is a nice thing to put a few in then finish later, and the @Cutting Card one is obvious crap.

I have 231 JP's atm, I'm still going to Max Triple Shot, QD MD, Bust Evasion, to 15/15, I will also put another 5 into RACC from 5/15-10/15, then the rest to me is just for getting at least to 550 this double CP campaign! I have SAM I want to 550 and NIN to 100 during this campaign so busy busy fun :)

Congratulations, but I hate you. Those feet might be pretty great if the set bonus is good enough.

Wtf, why are Vagary drops needed? That seems kind of dickish. But I guess it forces there to be more of those pages for Empy gear. Unfortunately, the pages won't be a limiting factor, the boss drops will skyrocket.

Vagary drops aren't needed if you have the -1 of the old cursed item.

SE and the playerbase kinda needs Vagary to be a part of the current game, even tho some of the pieces for re-forged emphy should of been a lot better (although I have uses for all of COR's pieces unlike other jobs) reforging emphy is a thing that is still new but they went about the event wrong. The set bonus isn't something we see tho and that is a shame because the set had a good set bonus.

It would only take however a few 'Quality of life in Vagary' improvments to make people more accepting to do it more.

I don't know what you guys are on about, Bust Evasion is amazing. If I know I have Fold up, I always keep going for that 11, and bust evasion makes it so Fold doesn't get used, means I get to 11 more often.

I think I play COR rolls too conservatively. Even with Fold up, I'm content to have a lucky or high roll.

Come to Asura and I'll teach you how to COR.

So NQ boots for a snapshot+10 boots, it looks like? Interesting. Going to have to go through each piece and see what it all breaks down to based off path a/b/c there, thanks.

Do we know if HQ augments are any different?

If so, I'll post mine if I get the abjuration soon. I have gil, beads, and lixirs to burn.

Soooo, just did Sinister Reign and got offered not one, but TWO superior magic attack bonus daggers to what we currently have available.

Except, you know.

NONE OF THEM ARE CORSAIR EQUIPMENT.

But I'm sure beastmaster and blue mage and puppetmaster need a few more beneficial adjustments and sweet gear upgrades.

My luck is coming back to bite me in the ***. Went on some Sinister Reign runs and 2 other people got max Samnuha coat augments.

Right now my coat is Magic Accuracy+5 Magic Attack Bonus +6

They obviously have plans to go up again aswell else why up the Job Points you can hold from 200 to 350, also, what do you think the reason is why we can hold so many Job Points?

Capping at 350 will allow you to take 3 categories to 20/20 when that is implemented, and very nearly a 4th. I suppose the more CAP. Bonus's you get the more of a difference it really makes. I got 63 yesterday to get me thro a rather boring (in terms of gifts) 230-nearly 300 - the exception is today I will get even more points per kill and I picked up 8acc/Racc as a gift.

Originally the said they wanted jp to reach level 30. I somehow doubt they'll take em so far, but maybe 20 is possible.

Yeah, I had 200/200 since before June, since I figured they'd make it to 15 in June and 20 in August, then 25 in September and finally 30 in November.

I'm thinking 20/25 will be the final cap.

e: Also, I finally decided to try to bump up my Doomsday to max augments. 15m down the drain, and still haven't beaten my MAB+20. :(

2 pieces: 4% crit
3: 6%
4: 8%

This was actually one of 2 things I wanted to ask about. It say's Doomsday can get +25MAB or MACC, or +20MAB&MACC. I have +15MAB/MACC and wanted to up it to +20MAB/MACC but I'm beginning to think Doomsday doesn't go above the numbers we both have.

I have not seen one either with higher Augments then either MAB+20 or MAB/MACC+15 so does anyone know for sure if you can get the additonal +5 to the current states. I still havn't been ab;e to get WSDMG Augment yet, any advice - even the gameday/time/moonphase lol. It is so Rare but I don't understand why I get it twice in a row on my GK then nothing again on either weapon. I stick with STP+6 to help with 5HIT. Also Stuck on STR+AGL 18, could cost a fortune getting the extra +2.


I have another question - does anyone know if we get the job bonus's from having the Trust job in the party?

I saw Magic Accuracy +24 and +23, so that at least can go above 20. But it's very rare. I also saw MAB/Macc+17 once.

I'm pretty sure yes, but easiest way to confirm is by using dancer's roll with one of the dancer trusts like Alexei.

Well that's enough for me, I kinda wish I got lots of Snowdim+1's until I got either MAB+25 or MACC & MAB + 20. When you say you wasted 15mins trying to upgrade your Doomsday was that using Snowdim+1's from the Red Mogpell?

I meant 15 million gil, not 15 minutes. Which was about 5-6 stacks of +1s and half a stack of +2s.
