My gae bolg is also a lowly zenith atm. But i have the DW spear so i cant really complain. I still get salty at the thought of a non-raider getting a better weapon than i do, albeit a small difference :p

In my case, I had a litle trouble with all that overcaped accuracy of the Ironworks spear, and the relic would be a great help on early t13 progression. So I'm reaaly preparing myself for next content.

got helm from t11 tonight. have the gloves,waist and helm now and dragoon was just my main alt class but i'll be switching it back to my main(from nin) after i get my zodiac this week about 1k light to go just

598 DPS T11!!!

No drops T10-12 again, T13 tomorrow. T10 and T11 I goofed pretty hard this week, T12 I beat my record, T13 we'll see tomorrow. One problem I'm always noticing is DPS keeps being pushed close to 51% on Bahamut right as Rage of Bahamut pops, so we've just stopped dps completely until that last add spawns, kill it, then push the phase. I'm kinda curious what you guys do.

And nice T11 run, you have the dreadwyrm spear right?

Yeah, I'm just missing the Dread neck and ring from being BIS, of all the things to be missing. Ramuh ring holding me back, would've broke 600 easy.
Would've broke 550 DPS on T12 but we had a death and didn't skip 2nd plume phase which tanked my DPS.
T13 We have the same problem on T13 with that last add, kind of just have to stop DPS :-/

Only drop I got this week was tank pants lol, still missing pants, boots, neck, ring wrists.

make your raid push dps faster so you push 76% & gigaflare before 3rd megaflare in p1, which leaves you on pace to full dps and not run into any problems for the most part. the awkward megaflare push leaves you with bahamut at like 73% as gigaflare actually starts casting rather than 76%

if you push too fast even with that, then push before the rage and go into dbs with shadow lolol

My group has managed to put off getting to that point by using very inefficient strategies :)

I finally completed the left-side drops tonight! (pics) I... don't really like the look of the helm especially, but whatever. Also, I finally got the stinkin' drop from stinkin' Lost City so I finished up Longinus as well. It was a good day for me.

(Dear Based RNG, please stop pwning us all on drops, thank you.)

I also managed to finish the Longinus today, to great relief.

But I have a question, I have all the bis items from the det set build, except for the Dreadwyrm spear, as it refuses to drop.

Now a few pages back, it was mentioned that the Longinus has an overall greater dps weight than the Augmented spear when the accuracy isn't needed.

So I've been using the all the bis det set, except with augmented spear and dreadwyrm chest. However, now that I have longinus, would it be of benefit to use the Longinus and the Augmented iron works chest instead?

Thank you.

Between the two sets you propose, stick with the Augmented Ironworks. It's ~1% more DPS in simulation, and the skill speed is not so high as to cause headaches.
