Just got out of a party with Leibfrid, level 65 WAR.

Probably the biggest gimp of a WAR at this level I've ever seen. Here's his gear:

Full WAR AF
Two +AGI earrings (the HQ ones, didn't check name)
Two +4 STR rings (again, didn't check name)
A back piece with +4 VIT (The Sandy CP one)
Hume RSE belt (+3 STR and +2 DEX)
Spike necklace
And he was using some jack-o-lanterns "on accident".

And he was invited to be a DD WAR. Now, I know I'm not an expert in the game, but when he thinks crap gear like that works in an exp party, he's very mistaken. I offered to give him some tips on his gear, but he pretty much ignored what I had to say.

Now, let me give you a bit of proof about how bad his gear was:

I (65 DRK) did 1651.18 damage per fight, on average, and had a 91.24% hit rate. Our SAM had 1576.36 damage per fight on average, and a 81.7% hit rate. Leibfrid, on the other hand, averaged 659.64 damage per fight and had a 56.51% hit rate.

Now, I can understand if I outdamage someone a bit - after all, we DRK are supposed to be one of the strongest melee DD in the game. But for me to do over 2.5 times as much damage as another melee DD, -plus- do some Absorb spells to debuff the mob... well, I think there's a serious problem here.

So please, try to keep this highly-gimped WAR from leveling any more until he learns to get some decent gear for his parties.
 
I have seen much worse. Savas, he uses full AF and has crappy +3 STR rings..

Idealy a WAR at that lvl should have about 4 mill into your gear to perform up to par with other Melee. Hauby 2mill, Snipers 1.1mill, Atleast Enkalodos Bracelets 700k atleast I wouldnt lvl WAR at that lvl w/o these items. :roll:
 
Honestly, I might stay away from those bracelets.... aside from the high price tag, they also have some -DEX. I'd rather have something with +DEX or +Accuracy than +STR and -DEX. But that's just me.

But, I told him some decent armor he can use instead of what he was using - NQ Amemit's for back, RK body and legs (AF hands, head, and feet are decent enough for exping), spike earrings, etc... Hopefully he'll use those so he can actually do some respectable damage... a WAR should not be horribly outdamaged by a SAM like that... I can understand maybe 100-200 per fight, but 900?

Also, quick side question: this Leibfrid isn't the same guy as E.leibfrid on the forums, right? >.>

- WAR/NIN with a Great Axe :( I could understand if he was using GA for Shield Break or SC purpose, but no, he was popping out Raging Rush for like 100-300 dmg (and Sidewinder >> Rampage is a much better SC, btw).
- Said his Axe skill is underleveled.
- Refused to sub THF, which is the best sub for DD WAR with GA. (he said he got THF at 30, but I kinda doubted it >.>)

I mean, seriously, what good is NIN sub if:
- You don't dual wield.
- You never come close to pulling hate so Utsusemi can save you a few hits.
- There was no THF --> not a trick partner.

Everytime I see him he's in Lower Jeuno doing nothing, yeah, that's why he doesn't have enough gil to buy proper food.
 
Oh I forgot one thing, he was also trying to "deal damage" and "debuff" with his Ninjutsu from time to time :(
 
The str 3 rings aren't that bad...But yes he should be using gaxe with war/nin only if u guys need to do SC.Otherwise need to sub thief for Gaxe cuz sata raging rush is pretty nice.
 
Agi effects dmg on rampage otherwise good for sata maybe but should be using thief sub for that.

no, Eleibfrid and Leibfrid are two different people. Leibfrid is Ele's cousin ^^;
 
They are related? lol

Scary...


And now I feel bad for the time I replaced myself with Leibfrid in party when I had to go to sleep :roll: lol

lol antura dude u shouldnt lvl war at all...some brain lvling would be better for you.

..take a closer look and you would see that war af hands, boots kick ass.
head ,legs r ok for exping only body sucks as dd.
 
Leibfrid has now outlevelled our static. You have no idea how disappointed I am in the Quetz community for letting that travesty occur, lol. I haven't partied with him since CN. He sucked then. Looks like he hasn't improved. He always gave me lip when I told him our party was full when he asked me (his tactic when seeking seems to be to send /tells to all party leaders his level range). I suppose at the least I won't have to worry about that anymore, but I do wish it was because his gimpiness had caused him to drop behind. ;_;
 
Noob question of the day - Rampage DMG is effected by AGI? o.o
 
Not sure if Rampage is AGI, but I'm fairly certain most WSs have hidden modifiers that depend on your stats. Cross Reaper is affected by MND, for example, and Spinning Slash is affected by INT. I saw a web site with all the WS modifiers listed once, but I never bookmarked it... anyone know where it is?
 
No, Rampage is affected by STR.

Btw, I checked AH last night and saw that Leibfrid bought a Victory Ring for 800k. With that 800k, instead of blowing it on *one* more STR, he could have bought all of these:
- Royal Knight Chainmail (not as good as Hauby but still decent for its price).
- Royal Guard Collar.
- Life Belt
- Spike Earring x2
- Amemit Mantle
- Bomb core

Someone needs to teach him a thing or two about DD jobs...
 
I think he said only when you sub Thief. Even then its not accurate. Thief is the only job that gets a bonus on damage for Trick Attack. Other jobs only get the hate transfer portion of it.

Fae

That's kinda odd...really Because when do Cross Reaper onto the PLD in a PT with TA (standing behind him) it does normal 800-1100dmg but w/o TA it's only a good 500-600 =/ maybe it's just picky lol :P
 
DAMN...

I d/c'd right when the convo was happening and missed it ><

I don't pretend to be an expert on melee gear but Iwill say this -- his attitude toward farming, "I'm not a famer," pissed me off. I rarely lvl my rdm mostly because I'm farming for a few bits of equipment that I think are necessary. He definitely game off like a broke, lazy sponge of a player.
 
As Armi said, Leibfrid and myself are not the same person. We are related yes, but do not confuse him with me.

I sent him a message via POL to come and read this asap. Hopefully he'll take some pointers or realize wrongdoings, etc.
 
Heh, I was wondering where you went, Jez... wasn't sure if you DC'd or just bailed on us :P

Wouldn't blame you if you did bail, though... it was a crappy party, thanks to the lack of heavy DDs... we disbanded soon after you left.
 
I had a run in with this guy once in Kuftal while exping on my brd. Him and his little crew came in and killing pretty much every mob that we were exping on (to get a coffer key for someone I guess) which pretty much stalled our exp to nothing and causing our party to disband. After many times asking then nicely through teles to let us have some crabs to exp off on I was told by Leibfrid <I don't speak any English>, which I knew was a complete lie because I had seen him say someting in /say just a few minutes before. Needless to say he lost any ounce of respect that he could have possibly gotten from me that day.

The funny thing was that they were a party of 58+ and mostly 60+ players. They procceeded to aggro the Haunt at the beginning of Kuftal and had to zone it because they couldn't kill it. :lol:

I know Mufassa was the most rude of them all, I can't remember any of the other players names. Some paladin with a really bad name I think. It's been a couple of months since it happen.
