Current Empy 95 Price

[MarkovChain]

All of those involve you spawning a powerful mob and killing it, just like VW.

In fact, VW has its own powered up version of Kirin in Qilin.

Yes that's what I thought, you think you are killing big things. Let me guess. You were in a HNMLs, thought you were important, and this time you see voidwatch is the only alliance event and decide on your own that it's something serious. SE themselves made it sure to prevent the playerbase to rush to it :

- no good gear
- not the best gear
- no thing great for the best jobs
- extremely situationnal crap

You realize dynamis NMs drops are mostly superior to viodwatch ? Oneiros grip for instance. Does your ally have this kind of good gear or are you going to have your LS spam VW until you get mats to craft gear that you will not get from VW but from the AH since you will have to sell the mat and the gear doesn't drop directly from VW. VW is fail on many levels. Enjoy your 1.4% TP body lol.

holy hell i spend 4 days driving and this thread blows up ill update the empty space tonight once ive shifted through it all and look on AH for any price listings.

There's lots of good gear there, most of it is the hands down best for what it does on one or more of the jobs that can equip it, and there are no "Best Jobs".

Your list had some issues:

Ganesha's Mala - Good

Langeleik - Good

Strendu Ring - Good

Tyrant's Ring - AHable so no need to do the event for it.

Mekira - Situational at best.

Mantis Eye - Situational again.

Lenore's - Why is this here?

Oynos - AHable so no need to do the event for it.

Eurus - AHable and only good on RDM, COR, RNG and really it only matters to a DD RDM.

Magma - AHable so no need to do the event for it.

Omphalos - This is the best QD bullet can't argue with it being wanted by CORs.

Heka - Cool if you're not a WHM and looking to pimp out your curing set.

Grotesque Cesti - AHable so no need to do the event for it. Nice for Soloing I guess though I'd rather look at Magian/Emp/WoE.

Romanus - AHable so no need to do the event for it. Really only great for BLU Whisker build but at 90 the build already 1 shot mobs so not even needed then.

Wiglen - AHable so no need to do the event for it. Situational.

Bruiser - AHable so no need to do the event for it.

Aliyat - Pretty decent though situational.

Dilaram - Good

Toci - Good

Ace's - Good

Fajin - Situationally good.

VW really has such amazing gear options >.> Of ths list if you include situational items that's 12 that are worth doing VW for, and even then some of those situational items won't be used much so its really 8 items.

How are those going to keep people happy while one person is getting their 1500 plates?

Also what happens when people don't have jobs for those items so they have no value?

What about when everyone gets those items and has nothing to benefit from the event aside from helping someone else out with plates and gil from the AHables (Gil payouts aren't as appealing to most players anymore)?

You mention doing other events to entice people to do VW but the more events you add, the less VW you can do, and in turn the longer finishing 1 weapon takes. Which makes the whole thing even worse.

*** the quality of gear doesn't determine if an event is Endgame, the levels do.

Of course the quality is the most important part...

What?

Ganesha's Mala

Mathematically proven to be inferior to AF3+2 to monk.

Langeleik

Is this a joke. What is a Gjallarhorn ¿¿ 2 weeks of work. What is a daurdabla ? Two week of work. Facepalm.

Strendu Ring

Nice inferior ring for your local BLM. lolcor etc. Don't get me started on this. Inbefore accuracy matter and an argument to prefer this over real magic accuracy rings.

Tyrant's Ring

Rajas ring , eponas ring, oneiros annulet.

Mekira

Look at my sig. This piece of crap is the most useless piece of gear I have ever seen.

Mantis Eye

Sidegrade in case your LS sucks too much and doesn't already have double daurdabla bards maybe ? You know usseful gear etc.

Lenore's

lolwut -enmity

Oynos

This is junk obviously

Eurus

Parry +8 go.

Magma
situational and cheap at AH, plus lol @ the jobs
Omphalos
lolcor, I hear they finally beat PUP in the last census

Heka

I hear WHM has cure V,VI curaga IV,V and caps cure potency. Alos I'm pretty sure RDM,SCH and SMN are no longer healer due to SE deciding so.

Grotesque Cesti
you must be joking



Romanus
200k. I don't think anyone with half a brain would team up with a 18 man alliance to farm a 200k item...

Wiglen

Anyone gearing this instead of twilight torque is dumb.

Bruiser
mathematically proven to be inferior to kewl earrings.

Aliyat

I hear THF pull in voidwatch.

Dilaram

crit -8% lol

Toci

I think you pointed the only side grade outside of impetus and only when acc is capped, aka you purposely don't use sushi nor madrigals, and you also need the head piece. All this for 2% damage up maybe, but the fact that real player have 6 songs if they need acc makes it useless. Have your CORs level BRD and farm daurdablas already.

Ace's
no
Fajin
lol

There's lots of good gear there, most of it is the hands down best for what it does on one or more of the jobs that can equip it, and there are no "Best Jobs".

I see 1 situational upgrade, and plenty of junk.

[xbobx]

maybe SE is trying to get more subscriptions by making this game very Gil seller friendly. Get gil sellers back get monthly payments from them, get to report greater profit.

Either that or SE is back to their old pathetic grinding ways because that idiot at the helm

[Kimble]

So what, if your group doesnt have 2x daurdabla bards, it sucks?

Wasnt it also already proven that tanaka never left?

[MarkovChain]

So what, if your group doesnt have 2x daurdabla bards, it sucks?

If you claim to do endgame, farm "good gear", and act as a pseudo elitist, it's the least I expect. Last I checked having 2 madrigals beats gaining 4 accuracy in a slot. Complain to SE for making game breaking empy and AF3+2 and failing at releasing better stuff.

[MDenham]

Heka

I hear WHM has cure V,VI curaga IV,V and caps cure potency.

It frees up another gear slot from having to be used for cure potency, so it's got that going for it at least (outside of Aby, this + cure staff + AF3 +2 head + Oretenia's Cape = it works; at 99, you shouldn't even need the cape anymore unless they decide to have the staff be 24% at 99, which would be lame and entirely expected).

And it is at least a better piece than a Facio body, which is the only other way you're pulling off 50% in four pieces. Enjoy putting on either a Fast Cast or MND earring instead.

[Neisan_Quetz]

Staff + head + neck + roundel + augur's hands + back, use Emp body, that becomes a curaga macro piece.
