What are you guys sets looking like. I just finished Tizona AG and im feeling a bit underwhelmed at the results. i thought Expacion would at least be on par with savage(naegling).

sets.WS.Expiacion = {ammo="Floestone",
head={ name="Herculean Helm", augments={'Accuracy+22','Weapon skill damage +3%','STR+13','Attack+11',}},
body="Assim. Jubbah +3",
hands="Jhakri Cuffs +2",
legs={ name="Luhlaza Shalwar +2", augments={'Enhances "Assimilation" effect',}},
feet={ name="Herculean Boots", augments={'Accuracy+21 Attack+21','Weapon skill damage +3%','STR+7',}},
neck="Mirage Stole +1",
waist="Fotia Belt",
left_ear="Brutal Earring",
right_ear={ name="Moonshade Earring", augments={'Accuracy+4','TP Bonus +250',}},
left_ring="Rufescent Ring",
right_ring="Karieyh Ring",
back={ name="Rosmerta's Cape", augments={'STR+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','Attack+10','Weapon skill damage +10%',}},
}

You get higher numbers when you have higher TP when you weaponskill. You need to have more than 1k TP to start getting better numbers (just like savage blade). Especially if you can start augmenting that Tizona. Also aftermath 3 helps your TP gain of course.

My sets can definitely be improved upon but here they are.

sets.engaged.Acc = {
main="Tizona",
sub={ name="Machaera +2", augments={'TP Bonus +1000',}},
ammo="Falcon Eye",
head={ name="Adhemar Bonnet +1", augments={'DEX+12','AGI+12','Accuracy+20',}},
body={ name="Adhemar Jacket +1", augments={'DEX+12','AGI+12','Accuracy+20',}},
hands={ name="Adhemar Wrist. +1", augments={'Accuracy+20','Attack+20','"Subtle Blow"+8',}},
legs={ name="Carmine Cuisses +1", augments={'Accuracy+20','Attack+12','"Dual Wield"+6',}},
feet="Aya. Gambieras +2",
neck="Mirage Stole +2",
waist="Reiki Yotai",
left_ear="Mache Earring +1",
right_ear="Telos Earring",
left_ring="Chirich Ring +1",
right_ring="Chirich Ring +1",
back={ name="Rosmerta's Cape", augments={'DEX+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','Accuracy+10','"Dbl.Atk."+10','Phys. dmg. taken-10%',}},

This is for everything that requires max acc.

sets.precast.WS['Expiacion'] = {
head={ name="Herculean Helm", augments={'Accuracy+11 Attack+11','Weapon skill damage +5%','STR+10','Accuracy+6','Attack+13',}},
neck="Mirage Stole +2",
ear1="Brutal Earring",
ear2="Ishvara Earring",
body="Assimilator's Jubbah +3",
hands="Jhakri Cuffs +2",
ring1="Epona's Ring",
ring2="Epaminondas's Ring",
back=gear.WSDCape,
waist="Prosilio Belt +1",
legs="Luhlaza Shalwar +3",
ammo="Ginsen",
feet={ name="Herculean Boots", augments={'Accuracy+24','Weapon skill damage +5%','STR+8','Attack+9',}}}

Missing Moonshade, Floestone and a second ring, but Savage never really comes close to Expiacion once you R15 Tizona basically.

I know the ftp doesn't scale as well from 2k - 3k as it does from 1k - 2k tp on Epiacion. Is Brutal better than Moonshade in general when off handing Thibron?

I was using moonshade/ishvara. Guess I'll give mache +1/ishvara a shot and see how that does.

I was wondering which Herculean Boots would be best for Expiacion; I've got one pair with (WSD+8%, CHR+10, Accuracy+7, Attack+7) and another pair with (WSD+5%, STR+11, Accuracy+1, Attack+15) augments. If only CHR were STR on the 1st pair...

Not to hijack the original thread, but this seems like an appropriate place to ask:


With Tizona 119r3 does Expiacion spam do more damage than CDC Spam? You at least get a light SC out of CDC, but I do not know much about Expiacion and many of the SC guides and charts are outdated.

Thanks

Tizona expiacion spam was best with non augmented tizona.

Light sc is situational

Requiescat > Savage Blade (Fragmentation) > Expiacion (Distortion) > Requiescat (Darkness) > Aeonic Requiescat (Darkness/Umbra)

You can start or finish at any point of this sequence if you don't want to use lolRequiescat, make a very long skillchain or you're not using Aeonic. Also Expiacion can be swapped to CdC for non-Tizona users.
