Nice weapon. I don't know what flaw we are supposed to be seeing.

Wow I wasn't even aware this was still a thing. Sad that there's shallowness like this in the community. I guess people forget the whole point of doing that insane amount of work for Novus was to allow for creative customization, instead of taking the easy way out and doing Soldiery (with fixed stats).

Pretty sure it won't matter once you turn your Novus in for Relic quest 3.0+

Unless you spent hours spiritbonding and millions of gil.

Dood, all you did was beat me to it, I'm putting most of it on strength and a bit on crit when I have the courage to tackle ATMA grind, hitting crits all the time might be nice but when the drop off of not hitting a crit is quite shallow I feel like I've dropped DPS.

I'd prefer a mixture of the two, slightly more strength based, so I'm consistently doing decentish damage while keeping crits quite a high volume, + YOU GET a skill that pretty much gives you 100% crit hit rate. Honestly, I think it's enough.:P


Screw it, I'd love that weapon. ENJOY.>:

i really dont get whats so bad. it seems like a pretty solid dps weapon. great strength, it adds to accuracy, so that isnt always a problem, theres cetermination to increase the amount of damage, and you have decent crit rate. honestly, im not entirely certain how important vit is past T5, but you definitely have a lot of it.

It's a good weapon. He was just mocking the min/maxers who will spend millions just to get that extra minuscule dps that's not even worth it.

i understand the post now, but i dont understand the seppuku time reference.

i also dont understand the "leroy jenkins" reference that i am always seeing, i recognize the name, but the meaning eludes me.

I'll bite if this is a troll bait :x
"Seppuku", without going into details, is Japanese style suicide. Basically sword on abdomen then throat. What he means by that is that he had "dishonored" the monks by making that weapon he should kill himself.
"Leroy Jenkins" just look it up on YouTube.

And why mock people for putting in the extra effort to maximize their weapon? I say more power to them for putting in the time and effort. As for myself, I have yet to collect a single atma.

Because some of them are elitist enough to call anyone who doesn't have a 31/44 crit/det or whatever the maximum output for their novus is a trash. Even though the increase of dps is minuscule but to them it's worth the extra 4 million which doesn't make sense. Oh and if you're a true min/max person you wouldn't even go the novus route which makes them even more hypocricital.

So because you believe some of them to be elitist you wish to mock people that maximize their gear? Is the increase minuscule? Does it really not make sense to spend that extra gil? It's just in game currency. Not like they're throwing down 4 million USD. If the increase in damage output is something like 1-2% that seems more than worth it to me. I like to maximize my output. That's part of the fun. You need things to strive for when content is on farm, no? Otherwise you just get bored.

Perhaps you like being critical because you do not put in the same effort as them. It's fine if you don't want to 'try hard', but it is no reason put down others for doing so.

Look sweetie, I was just explaining to the one who asked what was the op trying to say. I gave the explanation to why to OP made this thread. You gotta relax a bit. And tell me, how am I mocking them? All I said is that it's not worth it, it's a waste of money considering SE will allow you to redo your scroll in the future and yes if you checked the dps of someone with a 31/44 along with someone who didn't max, let's say 30/30/15 (crit/det/accuracy) the difference is minuscule. If the first one is doing 405 dps the other would be doing 400. Assuming their skills are equal.

One last thing, stop being so defensive sweetheart. Like I said, I was just explaining why the op created this thread and I gave my opinion . Assuming you read my posts. I didn't say min/max people are bad or anything. All I'm saying is that doing it on a novus is not worth it

/blow kiss ;)

People discuss about if putting this or that secondary stat is or not better. I don't see the point in, without knowing for sure what is the best option, deciding to put only 2 stats. It might be that some points in a third stat (or even 4th) are more worth than the last ones in your chosen 2. And secondary stats are always secondary. Useful, etc. of course, but secondary. The last points are the most expensive because there is a high chance of failure and probably you'll need several of the highest materias for it. For someone who is really sure of what is his best option, perfect although expensive. If you are doubting, you might as well distribute a bit the points. It might be cheaper and also better. Anyway each one has his options.

I think the point of working for Novus is getting a ilvl110 weapon that in the future will have upgrades. The possibility of customizing the secondary stats is some added nice special feature previous upgrades of relic weapons didn't have before, not the main reason for getting the Novus weapon.

Well, to be expected from his previous posts in this thread. He seems to spend quite a lot of time talking down on people. Not really worth another response.

Oh please stop /blush ;D I would never talk down on people! I only give what's due love! Your defensiveness is so hot <3 it's almost too tempting to transfer to your server just to be close to you! I just wish you weren't so easily offended with my opinion :( but for you I'll change just say it sweetie and it will be done :3

Actually, that would be "The adults are talking now, go play somewhere else."

"Look sweetie" is pretty tame.
