The Last Dance III: A Dancer's Guide *New*

The offhand preference for the daggers still favors Twashter and Mpu Gandring. Terpsichore pairs best with gleti's knife since pyrrhic kleos has no tp scaling, whereas the others pair with centovente. Pyrrhic is weaker than rudra's and ruthless, and even with terpsi's bonuses it still lags behind. I've played around with terpsichore on gartell multiple times, but twashtar just ended up being better to the point I stopped bothering with terpsi. Even if pyrrhic always had two extra swings it still wouldn't have caught up, although I admit it would have been closer.

While I enjoy playing around with my terpsichore I always advise people to prioritize mpu gandring first and twashar second. Terpsicore is third in line for dancer's REMA dagger choices, and the amount of effort it takes to get it is comparable to the other options.

Ampulla is awesome on DNC as well and coming down rapidly in price. One of the best jobs for Ampulla if you can stomach the gil sink.

Won't disagree with that, and really its not exactly a great argument to say mythic may keep pace if you dont mind a perpetual money dump via ampulla, just thought kicking the ws up to a baseline 7 hits at 2.5~/hit where 5 of those hits are at 99% acc cap/2 95% should do amazing for something you can just drop at 1k, striking making 2 of those hits +1.08~(likely using emp head so +1.39 atleast?) should make it very respectable imo

That sounds about right to me, except that the ideal offhand for Terpsi is a reforged Air Knife :P

PK was undermined heavily by the glut of WSD they released in the last few years. 1.85*7 fTP (2x DA) is 12.95 fTP with 40% STR/DEX mods at 1000TP, plus a 40% damage boost from Terpsi.

Rudra's with Moonshade and Centovente is about 14 fTP (2x DA) with 80% DEX (and +10% damage from Augment), but most of the damage (11 fTP) is affected by WSD and the first-hit WS acc boost. Also, belt slot is free. Also, CF Rudra's is super powerful so you're going to be using that anyway with PK (but won't have Centovente).

They'd be pretty comparable if we weren't running 60-80% WSD.

Im running with r15 terp so wouldnt that be 2.5(1.75ftp x 49% r15 combined bonus) x 7? So 17.5 before striking
