dmg

I am currently working on a magic resist set for PLD, mainly because I am determined to live through Ultima's Citadel Buster. With the gear I currently have I can reduce the dmg by about ~600 and that is using conservative numbers for the calculations. I have not been able to test real game...

Ok... I recently talked to some NINs about WS in Osode or Hauby. A lot seem to think Hauby is better and when a few guys [notably Blazeoffury and Evanos] Explained it to me it seemed to makes sense why hauby worked better than Osode. Then I started to think. Don't WARs weapon skill in N.body...

So I'm walking through Port Jeuno and get an invite to party from a guy named Cyruss. Cyruss tells me his party is awesome and is made up of high levels. He then asks me can I MB for over 800dmg.....I say I can with Freeze. He replies in a friendly way and asks if I want an invite. Going against...
