Made some minor updates to polearm sets (way over on Store TP though):
TP-
ItemSet 319108
Stardiver-
ItemSet 319109
STR/Haste on Otomi and Ejekamal, of course. I just like playing around but Stardiver spam is quite good on samurai in situations where you have enough accuracy that the lower 117 skill doesn't hurt you. In fact, on the spreadsheet, on Tojil with enough buffs/debuffs, polearm samurai is very close to Ryuno dragoon.

Call me stupid if you want, but I`m not seeing the benefit of Wakido Kote +1 in a Max acc set if I have less acc than using Sakonji +1

I use Wakido in my Normal/Acc/Acc2 set, but I take them off in my OMFGICAN'THITSHITMAXACCSET. Fudge the JA haste if you cannot hit. Granted, this is rare and I only use it when/if buffs are wearing off. any updates on Tachi: Fudo weapon skill gear if can please post like to see what I need work on gear wise :) and thank you.

For those of us who, for whatever reason can"t do STR augment on Ejekamal Sune-ate, Question is Sakonji 119 or still with Eje. for ws sets? I was assuming Sakonji would trump 1% triple but not entirely sure.
Without STR augs, Ejekamal Boots aren't ever worth considering in SAM WS sets.
Ejekamal Boots are actually pretty niche even with STR augments, though. Other than Tsuru, I wouldn't recommend them over Sakonji +1 for Fudo for any GK since the STP on them usually allows for a ~10 TP bonus or higher on your following weapon skill. Even then, they only beat Sak. +1 for Tsuru if you're capped acc/att. Shoha, however, should be using them as long as you're capped acc. Kinda what I was thinking, thanks.

ItemSet 326591 And i assume this next 1 is the best set up you can shoot for ItemSet 326593 Moonshade Atk/TP bonus, miki hands Path A rank15 are less STR then Boor but you dont get the -DEX, id say the benefits of the atk/acc/dex will pull ahead of boor assuming you are doing relative content. I could be wrong about this being best set but its still near perfect at least.

To my understanding, SAM only use bow for piercing, so if mobs aren't weak to piercing and you're doing fudo why have bow equiped? the bow gets 12 STR and 7 stp.

I was assuming Sakonji would trump 1% triple but not entirely sure. Why not do 8 STR on Ejekamal? That's pretty much what you'll want on all jobs who can use those. cause were talking about SAM lol, sakonji sune-ate +1 wreck ejekmal

I am using my Ejekemal for Pld, fastcast +3, that's why.
I am currently using almost that same set Natenn, except change the rings to 2x nq ifrit....for now.
Asura.Natenn said: » cause were talking about SAM lol, sakonji sune-ate +1 wreck ejekmal Wrong. Took some advice and made some changes to sets. Im currently between weapons as I use amano and tsurumaru. Im working on amano sets now. Any advice on sets or they good?
Sam TP ItemSet 325927 Sam Fudo ItemSet 325928 I was told for tp xaddi legs are best for DA over wakido +1 havent really played with them much but we will see There really isnt much of a different between an Amano set and a Tsurumaru set. The TP amounts will be different but in the end its more about getting multi attack with a decent amount of STP since any time a multi attack procs you end up with a free ws.
Unless you are talking specifically Kaiten, then just change the earrings lol. *** SE, war and nin getting HP boost and SAM not getting jack ***.
Chyula said: » *** SE, war and nin getting HP boost and SAM not getting jack ***. You're seriously complaining? Does SAM need any boosts compared to those jobs? No? Exactly. Would the HP be nice, of course. Is it needed, no. SAM got the shaft during the last few updates. It seems like all the other jobs got buffed while SAM is stuck without much use. MNK and WAR need less buffs and SAM needs more JA and JT buffs to keep up. Plz read this SE, SAM needs buffs badly.

War, Mnk and Nin need the extra hp so they live long enough to kill the mob.
I am more interested in the DD tank nerf. Depending on how bad it is, there might be an issue. Asura.Loire said: » Carbuncle.Xenhas said: » SAM got the shaft during the last few updates.

SAM does perfectly fine in Stellar BCNM on difficult+. wait wut?......
