1) QD accuracy is for light and dark shots. You don't need it to boost damage for elemental nukes in sortie.

2) AF +4 would be best for accuracy, but besides that the AF +3 hat and hands with the set bonus still beats empy.
Thank you. I totally understand QD Accuracy now.

3) Probably still augmented herc legs.

For QD Damage, I'm probably overthinking it, but I guess the goal is straight MAB/AGI/STP?

Also, when does Empy Feet become a desirable swap if it's outperformed by other pieces?

Empy feet on QD boosts MB damage by 31%, so whenever you are in a mage setup.

Tbh you can keep empy feet on for all QDs. The damage boost on AF feet is pretty minimal and QD doesn't do much dmg even if you max it out.

Best to stack storetp and macc for landing. Saves you inventory augmenting random escha gear too.

Thanks, I thought I was losing it, but I actually forgot to account for 4-items Regal Bonus (i.e. 3x COR AF1+3 as well as Regal Ring).

I've decided to kept the QD Accuracy set as described in the guide while also, swapping in Empy+3 feet, for the reasons you described. (Additional MB damage in Sortie).

I do have a question about Ikenga Body and Legs. I think COR Empy Body/Legs provide more Magic Accuracy, but I can only assume that the Store TP+ is giving them priority here? I mean, It makes sense.

Empy legs has higher macc and higher storetp than Ikenga legs, that's what I use in my set.

I would imagine the set with Ikenga in it was from before empy+3 came out.

I started investing in cor, considering I don't have patience for a death penalty do you suggest Armageddon, fomalhaut or other options for ranged ws (leaden salute)?

Armageddon is a really good well rounded gun for both Leaden Salute and Last Stand. Arma does need to be shooting with AM3 up to pull ahead of the other options though.

Quick numbers on Desert Dhalmel outside Rabao.

r15 Death Penalty, day bonus, 1045 TP : 45981

r15 Armageddon, day bonus, 1045 TP: 34585

Fomalhaut, day bonus, 1045 TP: 36019

As you can see Fomalhaut is your closest ilvl option to DP though these numbers are all with Living Bullet equipped.

TP bonus gun, day bonus, 1045 TP: 38245

TP bonus gun will require you to have a BiS Leaden Salute set to not get the occasional resist in Dyna D.
