I believe they dig through the Update files

Now I'm tempted to run my first Zodiac quest as WHM instead of DRG. Grab Allagan Spear Thurs or Fri (hopefully...going to be farming Twin a lot the next few days) and just use that til I get Liberator (maybe bump to a Levi Weapon just for the Weapon Damage if I get one til I get Liberator).

[Dervy]

lol. So far, using 2.1 Stat Weights, along with the items I've currently added to my solver, with a Liberated (i110), we'll be looking at 470+ skill speed....

EDIT: 488 atm lol. This is for 472 Accuracy however. I'll bump it to 500 after I'm done. There's 4 pieces of new gear for each slot, 7 weapons >_<

My one concern about Zodiac quests is: I'm sure it will be similar to Relic quests in that you can only do one weapon at a time. However, if the progress is spread out over several patches, does that mean we are stuck on the one quest for however long it takes for all content to be available? Or do you think there will be a stopping point each patch were you can pick up the quest for other classes and work on those? I have 6 relics I want 6 zodiacs XD

Likely there will be stopping points. Looking at the patch notes, there's two quests under the Zodiac line. First probably upgrades to Atma, second to Animus. So get one to Atma, start a second Atma and get Animus for the first at the same time

100%. You upgrade Zenith to Atma, then to Animus. Atma and Zenith have same stats. Tidal Wave Harpoon > All 3.

[Butcherboy]

So right now the best thing to do is upgrade fr zincite to atma since both have the same stat, then get 10 Rowena primal token and purchase tidal weapons? S this correct? So tidal weapon is best ATM till we can get our atma to animus?

[Dervy]

Tidal is best until we get our Weathered Liberator to Liberator. Liberator is i110.

Anyway, BiS full i110 suit @ 500 accuracy w/ 2.1 Stat Weights w/ Buttons in Blanket (HQ) are as follows: (This also includes drops which will drop from T9, so not 100% reliable as of yet)

Weapon: Liberator
Helmet: High Allagan Headgear of Maiming
Chest: Suit of Astrum Mail
Gloves: Astrum Armguards
Belt: High Allagan Belt of Maiming
Legs: High Allagan Trousers of Maiming
Boots: High Allagan Sabatons of Maiming
Necklace: High Allagan Choker of Slaying
Earrings: High Allagan Earrings of Slaying
Bracelets: High Allagan Bracelets of Slaying
Ring 1: Gloam Ring
Ring 2: High Allagan Ring of Slaying

Strength: 575
WD: 51
Accuracy: 500
CRT: 456
DTR: 298
SS: 486
Stat Weight Total: 807.096

BiS @ 500 accuracy w/ High Allagan Spear w/ Buttons w/ 2.1 Stat Weights:

Weapon: High Allagan Spear
Everything else: Exactly as above

Strength: 578
WD: 53
Accuracy: 500
CRT: 489
DTR: 309
SS: 442
Stat Weight Total: 830.009

The new updated Black Truffle Risotto HQ is still the same as Buttons, lol.

Astrum Armguards is in slot for every accuracy. Below 496 accuracy, the High Allagan Chest is best.

So 1st upgrade for everyone will be the Arm Guards. Once people have found a comfortable accuracy for Turn 6, we'll start from there.

[ZanderMist]

Wave Harpoon is equal/better than Allagan Spear. I lost all interest in killing Twin now.
