What is the best DD?

Does your drg not have a PDT/MDT set for some reason?

Mdt is a bit old fashioned. We are in abyssea and play the easy mode game. Cure VI spam go, invo -10. Not to mention that atmas of the easy mode allow you to cap a given element's magic evasion, if not all all at the same time for elites, if needed. Pdt is still useful for cleave.

Completely incorrect if you want to be efficient in any way. PDT/MDT sets will never become obsolete.

Or you can have a MDT set and use useful atmas.

In which case it means that you can afford taking 50% more damage which means that reducing magic damage is useless ? Just for your info you can easily macro single element meva and paired with the appropriate barspell from a whm you will easily sit at 250+ at which point you have 50% resist rate at worst and 25% mdt from shell which destroys your lol mdt set. Stop trying to find excuse for having a mdt set. Either it saves little magic damage (200 damage is nothing, not worth the invo +10) in which case both meva and mdt are retarded, either magic damage is a threat in which case single element meva is THE way to go. There is no inbetween. Except maybe multiple element nukes, but that's when you can use multiples atmas for little damage speed sacrifice.

Are we playing the same game?

Also why are you complaining about "invo +10" (which btw is a huge exaggeration) for a multielement MDT set while advocating single element meva gear? That's a lot more of an inventory leech...

lot of stuff

lol. so with your post in footwork thread that sum to
using an elem atma
+ using footwork and shoulder tackle
+ gearing with subtle blow+50
+ using an agi atma for dAgi
= a little dmg speed sacrifice?

I don't "gear" myself towards 50 SB, it's like this even if I try not too. I don't use agi atma, agi is here (cruor buff, gnarled horn, lalala). And you are mixing 2 things I think, in two different threads. In one thread I talk about stun locking a mob (on monk) and in another about minimizing magic damage taken. I mean you can stun lock a mob that doesn't cast magic and you can minimize magic damage while not being a monk. //facepalm.
