Haste and You... A guide to the misinformed.

[rog]

You guys are so quick to call her gimp when she is simply defending her right to be gimp. Imposing all of your math and formulas and calculations on her is barbaric, bordering on psychological battery.

She's not defending her right to be gimp, she's arguing that she isn't gimp at all.

So you're the new thread troll..

Thread is about haste >_>

Not how not being able to handle opposing views on the internet can "traumatize" a person.

Nobody forced them to stay and post the same thing 50 times (reworded each time)

Are you gonna make this thread about you now.. or try to keep it about them?

The ramifications of this thread go much beyond haste.

No, she's saying she's not a bad player.

If she acknowledged so, we wouldn't be having this conversation right now, lol.

Thank you to the OP for the haste information, I have always liked haste when TP-ing, as a thf, I "normally" never believe in +attack and +str anyway.

Let me first say that everyone DOES have their own play style, and gear swap or not, play good or play bad is all just choice of wanting to perfect their job or lazy their way.

With that said, I just can't hold myself about people who doesn't gear swap and make a ton of excuse about why they don't want to. I played THF for many years, and have always carried with me a DEX, AGI, Haste, Evasion, R.acc set (I also have acc set too, but isn't used much any more). DEX for SA only and WSing. AGI for TA, Haste obviously for TPing, Evasion for tanking. Like I said if you just want to play plain, say so, but don't say no gear swap is anywhere as good as gear swap. Maxing out the stat that will benefit what you doing at the moment most will make you a totally different THF. Way before abyssea, many have always say THF sucks for reaosn b/c of people that doesn't swap gear, SA with haste, TA with haste, ws with evasion gear, YUP, that will make the THF suck!

SE made so many different gears, and they are all "situational" (there are NOT that many FULL time piece of gear out there), so you should focus playing the game and understand what gear is best under what situation if you want to be good at thf

just as an example: first instinct of a THF/NIN in a situation when your shadow is down, and the mob has good accuracy over your natural evasion should be... PUT ON THOSE DAMN EVASION GEAR and start shadow casting, NOT wait.. wait..wait.. that whm is gonna cast cure on me anytime now.............I shouldn't blink (even back in the days where stpt is not available)
BUT will you WS with evasion gear, SURE, if the situation demands it, the mob HIT HARDS and you have no shadow already, or the mob have very good accuacy on you, so you don't want to lose your shadow too early. EVEN THEN, you can do a quick change in between the mob's attack and switch bk to evasion, if you are quick and experienced

but then again of course, it's just a game, if you don't want to play a good thf, continue with no gear swap, it's your choice

The thread isn't about anything. The OP is an incredibly informative post meant to educate people. There really isn't anything else to discuss at all, and the first 2 pages give or take were just a couple people correcting minor typos in his charts and elaborating on some of the things he already stated.

18 pages of bickering is not a huge deal, but don't obscure the purpose of the OP. This thread wasn't made to discuss haste, or whether or not haste is good. Haste IS good. It is exactly as good as laid out in the OP. There is no debate. For players who want to educate themselves and be the best they can be, reading the OP will help tremendously.

For those who are too stubborn to care about Haste, no one cares how you gear. Your existence does not bother me in the slightest. You are free to play the game however you like. Just don't shit up a thread whose sole purpose is to provide empirically derived and confirmed information to the gaming populace. If you want to "Discuss" your "Opinion" on "Whether Haste is good or not", make a new thread with that purpose.

If people didn't know the benefits of haste by now they clearly had personal/religious reasons as to abstaining from its use and you should respect that- instead of waving your superiority around like a banner of pompous elitism.
