Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Daweism]

another week with 0 loot

Got the gloves finally this week, 3rd drop in 13 weeks.
Haven't done T13 yet, we'll see if spear drops, none on server yet.

The best accessories you should play around with are:

Earrings: 18ACC/18CRT/13DET/9SS -or- 9ACC/18CRT/13DET/18SS (Latter usually comes out on top)
Rings: 18ACC/18CRT/6DET/19SS -and/or- 9ACC/18CRT/12DET/19SS

Bracelets and Necklace are extremely situational.

rings are like 15mil each to meld and earrings 7m

not sure how much stat weights we are getting with a gear set with earrings or earrings and both rings since the sets you posted used choker too.

I honestly wouldn't personally recommend the set you recommend with crafted rings and crafted chokers. That would be like 52mil for 3 str and that's mega steep to me especially with nothing to really use it for and I'm not lacking gil.

Think we should look into the +stats on using just the earrings as thats the cheapest to meld at like maybe 7mil.

Well, if you did go for that max crafted meld set I posted a few weeks ago, then you'd want this:

STR: 663
ACC: 353
CRT: 584
DET: 408
SS: 411
Weighting: 1043.617
DPS: 578.63133
Raid STR: 593.35988

Sadly, if you've invested into those boots already, then... The earrings are so good for us DRGs all because of the Accuracy on it.

The only way to use both the boots and crafted earrings would be to change the melds on your gloves to 9 ACC/ 25 CRT/ 18 DET/ 25 SS. You'd then switch out to using 9 ACC/18CRT/13DET/18SS Earring melds.

Unless you go for 2 i110 accessories? 9ACC/18CRT/13DET/18SS basically on both Ring and Earring.

Any idea if any of the World of Darkness gear is any good? I have only seen the Gloves so far and they have Det and Skill Speed on them. Not an improvement on the Astrum ones I don't think.

ya that set seems to be pretty good for cost.

I'll meld that when I actually get a spear `-` maybe in another 2 months and no helm+gloves.

I haven't actually remelded anything but the belt because I have too much accuracy with the augmented spear.

THAT ACCURACY!

You could cut the cost even more and remove the crafted gloves. Those gloves will be a bombshell as well.

wouldnt that leave us with 531 accuracy if we get the dreadwyrm

[Dervy]
