Torcleaver numbers.

u need 92 store tp to get a 4 hit on that GK

(base 13.0tp for 4 hit u need 25 tp 25/13 = 1.923) so u need 92 stp (well 93) and cap is 50/51 in gear/sub.

the "cap" is 65 gear 35 Job trait but you dont even need that to 4 hit a 480 delay GK

need 38 STP in gear including the +6 on the GK itself.. maxed STP merits and any +20 STP atma

hell with the +2 body hat and legs you can get the +58 STP needed without a STP atma at all..

Since i don't play SAM i just read what wiki said but i didn't know u could get that high.

thats kinda crazy

This post was supposed to be about data regarding Torcleaver and yet its devolved into a slug fest about how DRK should be played as a DD versus other DD jobs. Silliness if you ask me. Please try and stick to the topic in the OP. If you have a discussion regarding something off-topic(see 80% of the posts in this topic), please take it to a new topic or a more relevant one. Thank you!~

P.S. I appreciate all the info regarding Torcleaver so far, keep it up! The more information we share about these new(Relatively new) weapons and weapon skills, the more we can maximise their effectiveness inside and outside of Abyssea.

It's not too hard to make a decent VIT setup for TC. In some slots though, there aren't any good VIT peices for DRK, so I stack STR or attack in them, and it works pretty well. It's a very consistent WS outside of abyssea, I regularly break 3k+ on NMs such as Tiamat, and other mobs that used to be the benchmark for damage before abyssea lol.

I'm too lazy to dig out the dmg SS's from my folders, but I can assure you, if you play DRK correctly, you will 100% not be dissapointed with Caladbolg.

hey finally got lv80 version of cala done up an was looking for confirmation on ws gorget/belt (snow?) if ws belt/gorget outperforms for their slots vs other items (bale neck etc) what is best for hand slot and what combo of earrings/rings you would use

i m not looking at dropping xhit builds or the like atm with new update an possibly new gears coming out (meaning dont suggest doing znm/nyzul floors for askar/aurum just cause theyre a time sink inmo) and i have ares body and working on the damn twilight head <which i swear to god hates me> just the mentioned slots really, o btw pld +2 hands are like wow for this ws <_< kinda makes me sad.....

Its snow gorget/belt

for hand slot Heafoc or BAle +2 hands are what i see alot of ppl use but there are augmented glvoes in Attowha that have ATT +6 VIT +5 (Vera mufflers)

[vedder]

thx jar guess ill have to cleave chigoes til i see them, found ones with vit+2 but no attack so npcd em

edited in: would the rse gloves for galka from the fairy (i think fairy) (7vit) be worth using if your a galka?

[Afrohatch]

I'm not the super mathy type, but I'm pretty sure Heafoc mitts will still trump VIT+5/Attk+6, it will at least be very close

[Gradd]

Heafoc only wins outside of abyssea, inside due to FSTR being capped the VIT+5/Attack +6 mufflers are actually pretty nice for Torcleaver.
