Data Mining Thread ftw

Points of interest for me thus far:

Erik's Axe
DMG:88 Delay:504
Accuracy+6 Attack+6
68 WAR, DRK
Click to expand...

Not a bad Great Axe certainly. +Acc/Attk always worth having, after all.

Barbarossa's zerehs
DEF:36 STR+4 VIT+4 Haste+3%
Lv. 75 WAR, MNK, THF, BST, BRD, RNG, SAM, NIN, DRG, COR, PUP
Click to expand...

Looks pretty solid to me, probably one of the better pieces for rather a lot of the jobs that can use it.

Corselet
DEF:44 Accuracy+6 Attack+6
Enhances "Resist Silence" effect
"Magic Atk. Bonus"+7
Magic Accuracy+7
Lv. 71 PLD, DRK
Click to expand...

Seems worthwhile for those DRK that wanna go endgame and spam Absorb-TP on things. Not the best for XP no doubt, but not a bad piece of situational armor.

Was drooling over these 5 minutes ago. Attachments look nice, wonder what you have to go through to get them... :/
 
What I think is nifty is that they have a piece of gear thats for pld and drk...two completely opposite jobs. Nifty to have for both jobs, nonetheless.
 
You do realise the average BLM would give so much go have that new DRK/PLD armor...

Bastards.

It'll take a parser to be sure, but that's comparable to byakko's. Hopefully it won't be just as hard to get.

Well you would macro it in for drain, aspir, abs-*, etc. Wouldn't wear it full time. And me want me want!

Oh and edit: lolhellsteak
 
Judging by the sound of it, Barbarossa's is gonna be a drop off some NM in that ship area (remember, those screenshots of the ship and what looked to be the interior of it?)

Kyudogi (<-front page armour)
DEF:42 Ranged Accuracy+7
Ranged Attack+7 Evasion+7
Enhances "Resist Blind" effect
Magic damage taken -2%
Lv. 70 RNG, SAM

that's lovely, always wanted a body piece for SAM with Racc + on it

Kumokirimaru
DMG:80 Delay:450
Enhances "Zanshin" effect
Critical hit rate +5%
Vs. vermin: Critical hit rate +8%
70 SAM

I wish they had one of these sooner, crit+ would really help on Gods and stuff when melee dmg is so hard to come by and I need to Gain TP.

Generally for SAM/RNG, WS ACC and RACC are essentially equivalent, other than for the sake of Barrage. The RACC on this isn't really anything special compared to the Hachiman body, but the +7 RATT that goes along with it is pretty nice. I can't wait to get one, but I'll probably end up waiting for a couple of months 'til the price goes down a bit. lolnewcrafteditemprices

They're both Knights. They share a lot of armor, a long with Warrior.

Paladin is literally Knight in the Japanese version.

Excepting the fact that, aside from Flash, PLD have no useful "offensive" magic spells.

GOGO BANISH II!!!

O wait...

Translation: That piece is only useful to PLD for the Acc/Attk bonuses, and in that regard it's radically inferior to a lot of other stuff that's already out. Unless it's stupidly cheap, I don't see the point. Even if it IS stupidly cheap, it's the kind of thing I'd get for my DRK and use on my PLD only if I decide to have my Hauby synthed to a Hauberk.

Oh, and did BLU really need EIGHT new swords solely for Killer effects?

I'd gladly equip the +1 version of this armor for TP on my Rng. It might not be the most necessary piece of gear I could have asked for, but it's defenitly needed.

Now where the hell are the new Ranged Weapons?

True, and I realise that. I meant that they focus on opposing aspects, DRK with attack and PLD with defense. The armor would benefit both jobs given they both cast spells. I need 4 o'clock to come around so i can try out my new abilities. lol

I'm also curious as to how much the "Enhances Zanshin" effect comes into play. In theory now, between Assault Gear, AF+1 and all that, with this GK you could have 4 levels of enhancement on your Zanshin. At what point does it become worthwhile to simply accept lower overall accuracy in exchange for greater damage-per-hit, simply because you're increasingly likely to just spam yet more attacks?

It doesn't become worthwhile to accept lower accuracy. Samurai is a job about gaining tp quickly, and we can't do that if we miss.
