LOL yeah i forget add the 3% DA from the ring lol. And yes everything was taking in consideration, critical hit damage and critical hit rate ^^ But both combos are very close, just choice what do you like ^^

Lower TP feed? No... They have the same AGI and Subtle Blow. Lower Damage output? How is that a positive thing?

I would have thought it was obvious? The Apoc build has 15% more triple attack procs (thus more TP feed) whereas SS just gets it done through more damage per hit.

Also, we are just talking Kinematic's spread sheet. I have parsed them to be very close. But I also prefer the HP boost of SS, rather than relying on RR from Apoc....I'd just rather not die.

Bah, try being a taru for a day lol

I've been using RR/GH/Apoc, Simply because an additional 15% Tripl attack means i Trp 1/3 hits, as opposed to 1/5 without. this helps with THF Set bonus procing too...

That and i rarely get to use SA or TA as im generally always the Main Tank.

RR/GH/SS does seem to hold some merit now that Critical hit damage cap is increased.

Count me among the THFs who almost always infuse RR/GH/Apoc. I use Future Fabulous for fighting NMs that deal considerable amounts of magic damage as it's incredible when paired with a solid MDT set.

Please tell me you stick a Sneak Attack in if/when red is proc'd on NM though? Bugs me when I have to go a job other than thf and our thf doesn't bother to do this. (unless mob HP is getting low and yellow still hasn't been proc'd perhaps)

Why wouldn't i Lol :P?

The second i see a red proc my ass goes behind the NM with someone (even if its a mage damnit!) and SA/TA > WS the thing and rape it.

Haven't really fought things lately we 'need' procs on, (been doing mostly Empyrean weapon NMs). So yah, once we hit red i always SA/TA, usually we line up a Skillchain if i happen to have a friend with me.

(I occasionally do Abyssea with a NIN and a DRK (my brother and my GF's brother))

Nice, I usually end up either in a pickup group, or if I go with friends I'm with a rdm and nin, so depending if we need red (war), yellow (blm/brd) or just plain TH (thf) depends on which job I get to go.

what atma is AOA?
