Requiring a mountain of evidence, hours of logging raw data and spreadsheeting, aka work, before believing anything anyone says is also a bit.. let's go with disrespectful.

If absolute proof is so important to you, and think that what multiple people say is wrong, maybe go out and do your own testing to disprove it.

The tp bonus only applies to ws ur does, 0 effect on ranged ws...


TP Bonus Augment works on ranged. Similar to Magian Weapons/Ikengas Axe

I have tested it out to confirm

Aeonics do not work on ranged however.

https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/TP_Bonus

Not according to bg wiki, what kind of testing have you done? Do you have the raw data and parameters or wss it an eyeball test? Bg eiki directly states that only magian and Odyssey weapons with tp bonus apply to different ws

I tested it over a year ago, I don't really keep that kinda data.

I don't mean to be snarky with this.

BG Wiki is edited by players. Not all players have time or motivation to edit it. If certain things are unknown or overlooked; they won't be on there. For example I am pretty damn lazy, so I don't update it.

Example of why BG Wiki isn't always 100% up to date

List of stuff I was too lazy to add to BG..

-BG Wiki was lacking in regards to some jug pet effects and descriptions. I discovered Zealous Snort will grant you guard regardless of your weapon type

-BG Wiki did not state that multiple target claim issues effect the Skillchains window on Diamond Aspis. I confirmed that it does.

-BG Wiki also said nothing about Origin bypassing shadows. I confirmed that too. Again another unknown. I did post about this.

More than happy to report findings on AH however.

If you want to be skeptical I get it. But why would I lie? To trick you into wasting hides?


I'm skeptical because I know a lot of people don't test things properly, they go out and eyeball it and call it "testing" then make claims based on that "testing" so when stuff like this comes up I want to see hard data. Cause while its probably not going to get my to build a bow setup for same the info could be helpful in
Other ways if its been verified. No offense is meant but I tend to be skeptical, bg wiki also is more often right then wrong when it comes to random things like this. I'm not saying you're wrong,I'm saying I won't trust your conclusions without also seeing the data that led to them. burden of proof falls on the person making the claim.

I genuinely mean this, but I am sorry.I might be shifting that burden to you for now. I might not have the time to test this out for a good while. I'll eventually do it if you don't mind a wait.

Stuff that might helps with testing.

SAM/RNG

Unity GK +500
Mpaca Head +150
Moonshade +250
Tenzen's Bow +1000 (I tossed it and don't want to farm another lol)

Should put you at a 1900 TP Bonus. Pretty easy to check with Refug Arrow due to the low fTP at 1000, and high fTP at 3000.

TP Bonus is also very observable on Flaming Arrow. Reference the last post, the damage was nearly double at 2000TP compared to 1000TP.



I'll recheck it when I can. Might have to wait until the weekend honestly.

I've never been able to get good damage out of refulgent arrow, even on a job like RNG. The reason Empyreal ends up being good is because it has a 2x attack modified as well as scaling TP mod. Obviously a 2x attack modified won't matter on trivial things, but if you're on sam for an odyssey fight, it's very very good.

Also, that is where Ullr shines, when you aren't attack capped.

Okay I'm bored, please don't make me keep doing this..

Regarding Unity TP Bonus.

Firing Distance: 15 Yalms
Target: Wild Wabbit

Average 29725
UNM GK, Mpaca Head, Tenzen Bow, Moonshade= 1950 TP Bonus
Weapon Skill at 1100ish TP = 3000ishTP

Average 23,902
Mpaca Head, Tenzen Bow, Moonshade= 1450 TP Bonus
Weapon Skill at 1100ish TP = 2500ishTP

1000TP
Average:12695
*Sekka Used to get baseline. No TP Bonus Used

Edit: Quick edit to typo. Meant to list 1950 and 1450 as total TP Bonus.

Got a SAM earring+2 but got shafted with 3% WSD/7 STR. Decided I will still use it over Thrud for all the accuracy.

At this point:
sub="Utu Grip",
ammo="Knobkierrie",
head={ name="Nyame Helm", augments={'Path: B',}},
body={ name="Sakonji Do. +4", augments={'Enhances "Overwhelm" effect',}},
hands="Kasuga Kote +3",
legs="Wakido Haidate +4",
feet={ name="Nyame Sollerets", augments={'Path: B',}},
neck={ name="Sam. Nodowa +2", augments={'Path: A',}},
waist={ name="Sailfi Belt +1", augments={'Path: A',}},
left_ear={ name="Moonshade Earring", augments={'"Mag.Atk.Bns."+4','TP Bonus +250',}},
right_ear={ name="Kasuga Earring +2", augments={'System: 1 ID: 1676 Val: 0','Accuracy+16','Mag. Acc.+16','Weapon skill damage +3%','STR+7 DEX+7',}},
left_ring="Cornelia's Ring",
right_ring="Epaminondas's Ring",
back={ name="Smertrios's Mantle", augments={'STR+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','STR+10','Weapon skill damage +10%','Damage taken-5%',}},

Assuming capped attack then Emp+3 feet are going to beat Nyame R25 feet always right?

would you even need to worry too much about acc on a single hit WS since they have an innate 100~ acc on them assuming you're already at acc cap. Also isnt mpaca head the general go-to for WS? Unless its hybrids. Though if using aeonic and overflow i could see it being wasted potentially if there's not an auto-check in the lua

Hmm, probably not but 3 STR isn't going to add that much and I do have more acc on body+4 and legs+4 now than when I had Nyame already so probably don't need the acc at all. I'll tell myself the STP on WS is worth it!

Mpaca helm is norm but I leave Nyame default and toggle Mpaca.

My question is about feet.

I also suppose Sroda would beat Epam ring at this point but not willing to drop 18M for it for one job atm.

ItemSet 379403

Nyame feet for uncapped att. Nyame body if I can't WS from the front. Nyame head swaps in at 2500 tp.

Show me the logic you are using for head, I couldn't get it working. I'm not going to change ring either.

Since I don't have Nyame R30 then legs are 1%WSD on relic+4 vs 9 STR on R25 Nyame. Guessing this is negligible.

isn't it just if spell type == weaponskill and player.tp (<|>) [amount] then equip whatever

my logic just combines the relevant set with the specific slot i want to add
