Footwork

[Ryozen]

You got me for a second there. It sounded like a pretty good idea, until I realized they were in the same category. It wouldn't be a terrible earring, if MNK was the only job you planned to use it on.

lol can tell it Pchan with his retarded upside down ?

[wish12oz]

U GUYZ R ALL RONG! PCHAN IS AWESOMZ AND SUPR KEWL!

[Vortex]

Arguing with pchan is like arguing with a rotting corps, no matter how much you complain that it smells, over time, it will just stink even worse untill you learn the inevitable and back away.

been away from forums for a bit, heres my op on h2h to use w/ footwork, IF tp per kick isn't ur focus .. Taurine Cesti / Ursine 2-4 .. if it is, +15 STP Barracudas from ToM. havent used my Footwork build lately cuz of tanking reasons, but iirc im @ 18 tp per kick w/o losing haste cap on gear all while /drg and spamming WS, most of the time people argue about the usefulness of Footwork w/o understanding the builds behind them.. even if i were to use Verthganda w/ Footwork id have 15 TP kicks and id still self SC.. admitedly i dont know the numbers between a Verth h2h DoT > WS vs Verth Footwork WS > DoT (not entirely sure if the AM effects Footwork either which would be a downside too). Either way i play mnk/drg + Footwork for fun sake~

It was 70%+ double kick rate on 2-3 ursine. I'd only imagine that being higher w/ 2-4. No way 15 stp is beating Ursines ever, lol.

Actually depending on Atmas, there is a decent chance 15 store tp would beat Ursine in certain gear situations. It wouldn't be by a ton, but even barracudas could get 1.677 hits per round avg with all the DA and TA now. Ursine 2-4s should come out to 1.858 hits per round, once ya throw in that Store TP, Barracudas could technically have a higher footwork WS frequency.

If you've got Vereth and you're not using Victory Smite... do I need to finish this sentence?

Damage range with Pure DD Setup: 250-760 (Including Crits)
WS damage range with Pure DD Setup: 2500-3500 (With Kick WS)

It is, I have roughly a 85-95% Double Kick rate outside of abyssea.

At the same time though the proc. rate for the 2-4 hit Ursine claws when using Footwork is extremely high, so much so you could sacrafice any DA/TA atma's and gear and probably see little to no difference in the proc. rate. Granted the rate of probability in this game is high, so I imagine there are some situations where it might be more beneficial, even the 2-4 hit Ursine claws have their uses outside of footwork.
