What have become of the RDMs.

[Neisan_Quetz]

Capped club merits, Pizza+1, +25 accuracy in gear to keep 25% haste, best Rdm can do is ~92% accuracy on heroes IT mobs with club, so while close still uncapped. Also means abandoning several attack options, of which Rdm already is lacking in. Enspells are barely 7-8% overall damage inside abyssea for Rdm, don't see it being useful.

Atma of omnipotent is a joke to anyone serious about doing damage.

[Protey]

the modifier for chant du cygne is dex, omnipotent gives +50 dex, don't see that as not significant. Also since stacking on dex, should cap acc. Also, last i checked, rdm has attack options in every armor slot.

[Neisan_Quetz]

Razed Ruins exist which is why omnipotent will always be forgotten. And if you're going for 25% haste (for TP) and don't have lolninurta's, you don't. I included RR and cruor buffs up to +50, so assumed slight bonus from dom ops, and composure. for Chant, you're still behind in the WS gear Department. Blu doesn't need to rely on pizza to still cap accuracy, Rdm does.

[Protey]

you can have RR and omnipotent at same time. You don't have to have ninurta's, you can also have speed belt, the 5% haste belt off lacovie works too.

OA2-4

Why do people think oa4 weapons are good?

[Protey]

offhand for tp gain

[Neisan_Quetz]

Omnipotent is a horrible atma for damage dealing, virtually anything is better than it, even demonic lash. VV, Stout Arm, harvester, scorp queen, gnarled easily, A/O, Apoc and Sanguine Scythe all outclass it. Was assuming without haste legs, otherwise Rdm can cap but is still lagging in acc/attack/stats/Crit hit rate/damage/DA/TA rate (unless assuming S Scythe which is still a pretty poor atma for melee, still outperforms omnipotent). Don't see how it's close.

Why do people think oa4 weapons are good?

Probably thinks Oa4 is giving him more rounds than it actually is.

[Protey]

was thinking of gnarled as 3rd. That with RR and omnipotent would pretty much cap crit rate.

[Neisan_Quetz]

No. RR capped your crit rate from dDEX. Omnipotent does nothing except WSC for Chant, worthless atma

[Protey]

If RR capped crit rate (which i don't agree with) then why would you suggest gnarled as well?
