Best "Chant du Cygne" WS gear

[Kanyaa]

A/O (best)

A/O is Atma of the Omnipotent?

stout arm is only giving 20% without loki's and 15% with

You're talking about Sanguine Scythe, not Stout Arm, right?

And i know i'll get hate, i'll take it even without Almace. I just don't want to charge myself with more and more enmity, so the tank will be useless. Hopefully we got good nins.

Meant Sanguine Scythe, sorry. A/O is Alpha/Omega. Blu should be fine tanking most mobs anyway.

[Kanyaa]

I tried RR/GH/Apo, then RR/Apo/AO, and finally RR/GH/SS
RR/Apo/AO is very good, fast TP building, constant 3k+ ws

And blu/sam is good to deal 10k dmg with Sekkanoki CDC>CDC=Light

[Sekundes]

I thought atheling Mantle and Epona's ring were going to be the best in slot for pretty much any given situation.

[Neisan_Quetz]

Forgot Epona's admittedly, thought I mentioned Atheling already.

Mine is

High buffs

Almace/Shamshir+2(STR)/---/Thunder Sachet
Aias Bonnet/Snow Gorget/Pixie Earring/Brutal Earring
Loki's Kaftan/Ocelot Gloves/Epona's Ring/Rajas Ring
Vigilance Mantle+1/Cuchulain's Belt/Mavi Tayt +2/Lithe Boots

standard buffs

Almace/Shamshir+2(STR)/---/Thunder Sachet
Aias Bonnet/Snow Gorget/Pixie Earring/Brutal Earring
Loki's Kaftan/Alcide's Mitts +1/Epona's Ring/Rajas Ring
Atheling Mantle/Cuchulain's Belt/Tumbler Trunks/Lithe Boots

low buffs

Almace/Shamshir+2(STR)/---/Thunder Sachet
Aias Bonnet/Snow Gorget/Pixie Earring/Brutal Earring
Loki's Kaftan/Alcide's Mitts +1/Epona's Ring/Rajas Ring
Atheling Mantle/Anguinus Belt/Tumbler Trunks/Lithe Boots

that Shamshir+2 on low buffs will also be a DEX one in future.

EDIT: Notes:

Gorget is ~equal to Love Torque in best case but without the accuracy so I generally stick by Gorget (that and I don't have Love Torque). Mathematically 4DEX is inferior to 5% DA by <1% on CdC negating critrate so more or less the same. Epona's beats 7DEX negating critrate increase and Rajas is inferior where fSTR is not being added (most of Abyssea) but by a margin of <1% (since the dDEX is unlikely to be adding anything too) which does not justify spending 1m and an inventory slot to me. Alcide's+1 vs Lithe Boots suggests Alcide's+1 will win under low buffs but I have yet to buy it for that purpose.

[Kyte]

Shouldn't Aesir beat Pixie in low-mid buff situations?

[RaenRyong]

Yeah, it likely will negating critical hit rate increase. Something I forgot about; cheers~
