Do Relic, Mythic, and Empyrean staves lack utility?

The blm and sch mythics are pretty terrible, nirvana is awesome though

Wow, can you be any more dense? I mean, seriously?

He's 100% serious it seems.

Hey Korpg, is it time to point out that 400-250 = 150 = Bp/release fail?

Hey Dallas, is it time to point out that I never said I did BP/Release and that your whole argument fails? Your ENTIRE argument fails completely.

So SMN meleeing > Avatar BP x1.3 and Perp -6 on a single staff? Remember, it's going to have about the same crappy base damage and delay, so all you lose out on is ODD and ~1500mp that you aren't using anyways, and you gain some random crap staff WS damage in the mix.

At 254dps on melee swings with ODD 60% your regular dps would be 158ish. Lets say PC goes from 4500 -> 5850 average, you end up with 1350/45 = 30dps from better BP damage, so now you are at 188dps. You need 66dps to make up the difference. Lets say you WS once every 4.1 seconds, plus JA delay so 6.1 seconds. Your random crappy WS only has to do 400 damage and you are back on par with Empyrean meleeing, while having a staff that isn't actually completely gimp for every other SMN in the game except Dallas.

Except he assumed the Smn is getting the same buffs - you know, forget it, your skull is too thick to get it.

Who is the idiot who still thinks I said Hver beats Ukon in a thread where I specifically point out that buffs destroy pet jobs?

Oh so now you're accepting that buffs contribute to damage, this is good. This is progress.

How many days after you state that Hver beats Ukon did it take for you to say that?
