Blade: Jin set up

So i am looking for a good blade:jin setup. i have went through wiki and tried to get as much dex and str out of what i have but the best blade: jin i have been able to put out was just barely over 1900 and that was in abyssea with razied rune atma, outside abyssea the bet i have seen is a little over 1000. So i am at a bit of a lose, is it my gear, my katana, i just dont get how so many other ninjas can wiped out 2500+ blade:jin's like it is nothing.

This is my setup:

Head: Fourth Division haube
Body: Kirin's osode
Neck: Chivalrous chain
Hands: Ochimusha kote
Waist: Warwolf Belt
Feet: Areion's Gamashes

Ah and i almost forgot i am also off-handed the Komome, with a Sekka +2 as my main hand and i have also tried my Shushui in my main hand

my jin setup is lazy, a year old, but decent.

Head: Gnadbhod's Helm
Body: Haubergeon
Neck: Breeze Gorget (get these gorgets, srs)
Hands: Ninja Tekko +1 (if you cant get these, I have no idea what other people use, I've had these for a long time. Aurore looks like a decent inclusion for WS?)
Waist: Warwolf
Legs: Byakko's Haidate.
Feet: Iga Kyahan (I'm lying, but I almost have them, I'm actually using Rutters)
Ear1: Brutal Earring
Ear2: Waetoto's/SomeSTRRing
Ring1: Rajas Ring
Ring2: Ulthalams/Snipers
Ammo: Bomblet

seems like a pretty good set up, bad thing about the legs is i still dont have sky (after 2 years of playing) and like you i swear the Iga feet hate me lol. Long story short here i guess is out of everything you listed i have the haubergeon, warwolf belt and bomblet >.>

My Blade: Jin is mainly just thrown together bits and pieces as I've not given it enough attention.

Atma - RR/GH/Apoc.

Hochomasamune/Kamome
Qirmiz Tathlum
Varangian Helm
WS Gorget
Ethereal Earring/Brutal Earring
Loki's Kaftan - Haubergeon/+1 is very good too.
Ochimusha Kote
Rajas/Epona's
Atheling Mantle
WS Belt - Warwolf is good as well.
Tumbler Trunks
Lithe Boots

This was the last set up I was using. Some of it is kinda meh until I find a better replacement.

Anwig Salade (w/ WS ACC and WS DMG augment)
Iga Erimaki/Breeze Gorget
Brutal Earring
Ethereal Earring
Iga Ningi +2
Iga Tekko +1
Heed Ring/Ulthalams
Rajas Ring
Atheling Mantle/Iga Dochugappa
Anguinus Belt
Iga Hakama +2
Areion's Gamashes

Ahh wow had no idea there was a belt out as well as a neck piece, ty

So i have a quick question, would it be best to try and keep the DEX and STR as close as i can for the ws or does it matter if you have say more str then dex?
