Hello Drgs and DDs interested in giving feedback. I have been working on many gearset combinations in my disposal to fully optimize a 6hit build that also includes a 26% gear haste. After much effort in collecting various haste and store tp gear I've found the perfect combination (that I have access to) of gear that can not only grant me 26% haste and 6hit, but also a 10% DA. The question I have now is i have an option to switch grips from a Pole grip to a sword strap (2-handed weapon delay -3%), and still maintain 26% haste and 6hits as well but will sacrifice 2% DA.
My question is what will be my best option: 26% haste, 8%DA, 6hits and an extra -3% delay OR 26%/6hit/DA10%?
In case this info is needed I'm using a 492 delay Polearm.

-Also note that I'm aware of the store tp and haste Neo-Nyzul pants. I'm currently hoping to make a group to gain these pants as they are super awesome lol.

This is my sword strap gear, I don't know how to make the Gearset diagram appear on this post so please bare with me.

Main: Rhongomiant Sub: Sword Strap Ammo: Hagneia stone
Head: Zelus Tiara
Neck: Houyi's gorget
Ear1: Brutal
Ear2: Etheral earring (Drg/Mage survival earring for me atm)
Body: Lancer's Plankart
Hands: Brego
Ring1: Tyrant's Ring
Ring2: Rajas Ring
Back: Atheling
Waist: Goading Belt
Legs: Bestia w/ Augment haste 4% Or Ace's Hose (opinion on that too please if possible)
Feet: Lancer's Feet +2

Please note in order for me to maintain the 6hit build when adding the sword strap, I had ~5 store tp extra in my gearset to offset the loss of store tp when adding Sword Strap.

This is my Pole Grip setup (If I was to not worry about handling the -3%delay)

Main: Rhongomiant Sub: *Pole grip Ammo: Hagneia stone
Head: *Lancer's Helm +2
Neck: Houyi's gorget
Ear1: Brutal
Ear2: Etheral earring (Drg/Mage survival earring for me atm)
Body: Lancer's Plankart
Hands: Brego
Ring1: Tyrant's Ring
Ring2: Rajas Ring
Back: Atheling
Waist: *Bullwhip belt
Legs: Bestia w/ Augment haste 4% Or Ace's Hose (opinion on that too please if possible)
Feet: Lancer's Feet +2

-The only advantage I see when not counting the change of grips would be an increase in Attack power as the af3 helm gives polearm skill +7 and Attack 20 to my single attacks during my tp phase, but a -75Hp decrease and a bit more squishy to elemental damage I may suffer against certain monsters (Bullwhip belt). So yeah need some help on this matter please.

New bodies from Arch Omega are good. Enif Corazza offers 2% Quadruple attack, 3% haste; Murzim Corazza gives 4% haste and 6stp. They both offer plenty of HP/MP too^^
Note that swapping to a sword strap will reduce your TP per swing a little, so you need to increase your stp. Be sure to account for that.

Just thought of 1 other thing about DRG/mage combo... you generally only ever use this when you're going to get hit. Assuming that you get hit at least once between every weaponskill, and that's 2%TP for free^^
