I am going to recheck gear sets for store TP/Xhit, DA/TA rates and also mods/fSTR etc to see how that compares now. I am hoping they update salvage gear for ares's legs to get a better DA rate myself but otherwise I cannot comment at this time what I might try.

With the 95 scythe Heafoc might be better because of how hard fSTR is to cap now outside, but I wouldn't use them ever in Abyssea.

I carry grim+1 for my PDT set but it would only be useful on a LR down set and even then it would be pretty damn close.

I'm curious about the Abyss gauntlets +1 you use, is INT+9 the best you can get on hands? maybe I'm an attack freak but i currently use perle for STR+4 attack+10. I play a lot of Voidwatch so i figure my attack isn't going to be capped always.

Also i use grim+1 for body

I don't use DRK for VW and wouldn't use Cata if I did. Most of those mobs you aren't full time TPing and if you are you are probably capped on att :p

As an alternative I use

Apoc/Rose/---/Bomb Core
Twilight/Ganeshas/Bale/Brutal
Armadaberk*/Khthonios/Raja/Spiral
Atheling/Ele Belt/Calmecac*/Bale

Armadaberk is augmented to have STP +6, DA +3 which I have to WS in to maintain 5 hit. Generally switch between Calmecac and Bale depending on mob.

Yes Apoc is truly becoming a fun weapon again. I can't wait to see the 99 versions. I did my 10 Animated Scythes in about 10 minutes because we already had the pops.

Problem I ran into Monday night was, I had the trial done, but had not leveled to 95 yet lol.

I finished my trial and I ran up to the Moogle, traded him and when the red text came up "--increased level requirement."

I almost hit the button before going "wait a minute -", and realized I was still 91.
