requiescat elements: Help ( it has WS elements)

[hideka]

Question1: Can anyone Confirm the elements of requiescat?
the WS is capable of creating Liquefaction (Quadrastrike), and darkness(for rudras). this means the "non-elemental" WS possesses SC propertys and therefore can be enhanced Via Gorget/belt combo. my guess is it has an element of either earth or thunder, as those are the only 2 elements that can lead into Liquefaction. if it makes darkness with rudra's that leads me to believe it at minimum has Earth/Darkness propertys. can anyone please confirm

QUestion2: do gorgets and belts stack? noob question, i know.
ive always been stacking them and never bothered to ask of they stacked.

Since Requiescat has no element, it’s an effective weapon skill against monsters that are immune to physical attacks. Considering that players can use attack boosts and double attack effects to enhance damage (edited at 12:28pm PST), we decided that an adjustment was unnecessary.

A non-elemental weaponskill can still have skillchain properties. (See: Vorpal Blade)

I apologize for Hideka, she's extremely confused.

Physical WS that has it's damage subtype set to none. Not magic, doesn't use MAB, fINT or Mag.Accuracy.

Known SC attributes are
A: Gravitation
B: Scission

Could have a third of Liquifaction, needs testing.

Gorgets that are known to work are,
Shadow
Soil

apparently your confused, the hits are what is considered to be "Spirit damage" akin to spirits within. not affected by physical damage reduction. so i apologize for your ignorance.
Also i never even alluded to it being magical damage,learn to read.

SE compared it to Spirits within in their post, hence why i was surprised that it possessed SC elements, not over the fact that it was nonelemental damage.

Ummm ... what ...

Spirits isn't physical, it doesn't use attack, accuracy, fSTR or any form of LCF. It's magical non-elemental as -MDT will reduce it's damage. Compared to Sang Blade which is Magical Darkness or Aeolian Edge which is Magical Wind.

Req is physical, it uses attack, accuracy, fSTR and LCF. It's physical non-elemental as -PDT will reduce it's damage. This is compared to Vorpal / CDC which is Physical Slashing or Evisceration which is Physical Piercing.

For crying out loud, Req STACKS with sneak attack, that kinda destroys your entire comment immediately.

There are two main types of damage, Physical and Magical, each has different subtypes.

Physical -> Slashing, Piercing, Blunt, Non-elemental

Magical -> Fire, Water, Thunder, Earth, Wind, Ice, Light, Dark, Non-elemental

Only thing that makes Req special is that monster physical resistances won't effect it. Slimes are Slashing -50% Blunt -75% Piercing -50% but magic +50%. Using Vorpal or CDC on them will have a -50% damage reduction, using Req will have no damage reduction. Using Sang or Aeolian Edge will have +50% damage bonus.

I don't know how to make it any simpler then this. This has all been tested prior to those WS's even being released into the live server. I've personally used Req vs various monsters on the test server to verify it's physical: non-elemental vs magical: non-elemental. Prime example is find a pot or eyeball, get it to use magic-shield then do Req. It will hit for full damage and completely ignore the magic shield effect.

question one was already answered, so I'll give you this'n. Yes they stack, but no, it's not always the best option. Depending on the job (by which I mean available gear alternatives) and the wsc/fTP of the ws, you may get more benefit from using just one (belt OR gorget) and having a different stat piece in the other slot. This is especially true of the new WS with their 100% stat mods, even the complete piece of garbage that is lolrequiescat.

Spirit is a type of damage. Non-elemental is (apparently) a type of damage. This is non-elemental, which is SE's way of saying, "Hey Paladins! You know how we took your WSs that bypass physical immunities and made them useless by making all new content monsters resist the shit out of them?" . . . . . "Well don't worry, now you can use Requiescat in those situations instead!"
