Merging Elemental Obis/gorgets

[Kincard]

People rarely use the waist slot for MDB/MDT (MDB+4 for PLD? Slipor Sash for mages?) and can cap out easily with other slots and Shellra V

I use Lieutenant's Sash myself. I'm not entirely sure I'd drop a consistent damage reduction like that for something that's actually going to increase the damage I'm taking 1/8 of the time. It's only -2%, but always remember that capping in any other slot allows you start gearing MDB in slots that would otherwise be occupied (Mujin Stud instead of Merman's Earring, etc) Granted, I could always make two seperate MDT macros, but a lot of times there's little going through my mind when throwing on a DT set other than "oh shi-".

But yes, please, please do this SE.

Still waiting for a response.

And bump, necro even.

This quite clearly needs to happen. I only have a few of the relevant items but, like many people here, I would be more than willing to make the whole lot if I could combine them.

Elemental Magian Staves and stuff too please... As much time and effort goes into making the magian weapons it definitely wouldn't be too over-powered to be able to combine all 8 of the same types into a single item... (Particularly the staves, obviously... but I don't see a problem with the other weapons either except maybe system limitations on the number of mods an item can have... in any case, I'm sure melee people wouldn't be completely heartbroken if only the staves were combine-able...)

At this point, I've been bored enough that I've accomplished the 8 smn staves (III) and soon to be 8 nuking (I) staves. In addition to the set of obi's I've accumulated, that's 24 inventory spaces that i'd really want to have consolidated. As said before, can use the iridal staff icon (8 element) for -casting time, magic damage, magic accuracy, avatar perp cost, bp delay, etc. Similar can be done for obi where only spell of day gets boosted. It shouldnt take too much to code for the synergy recipe to combine them or make effects work on the staff. If synergy is that bad, make it a trial using Crook and turn in all 8 staves of same path.

Staves will definitely not go beyond current ilvl staves, but it would certainly reward the ppl who've put in their time.

[Kimjongil]

One thing though. Maybe I am wrong. Wasn't their a hidden affect on obs that the reverse element of obi would be weekend? And the staves the opposites would increase timer? So how would this work after taking into the penalties they may cause?


I do agree I would like this done though.

Melee jobs, no.. pet jobs, yes. BST, PUP and SMN pet weapons are all stackable with Pet Level gear, and provide an assorted of nice stats to boot.

I think SE has moved beyond the whole magian weapon thing though, so don't expect anything while it could be usefull still.

As I mentioned in another thread that suggested this as long as they keep the item aquisition fair and not something simple like a synth I'll support... then again I only own a light gorget
