M6S Week 1 Appreciation

[Jamini]

I personally hate these hard dps checks in Savage, because it make you feel guilty, if you don't have pentamelded crafted gear. In ultimate it is fine, because crafted gear is not bis in ultimate. You are not forced to grind 30M gil to have advantage during first weeks.

A full set of 740 crafted gear was 9mil on release. Pentamelding costs about 4mil depending on RNG. Your numbers are off. This also assumes you have no uncapped tomes, no materia shards, and no crafters or crafter friends.

Full sets are down to 5.5mil as of this morning and materia has similarly fallen. It will likely continue to fall to about 3.3mil if trends follow the last tier until next savage drop.

- Also if you don't care about parse, pentameld your left side and weapon (or better, get the ex weapon!), get x4 normal mode jewlery and a Tome ring week 1. You will lose about 1-2% dps, but the cost becomes effectively halved. Jewlery is the first stuff you replace on clears and the cheapest tome pieces, as well as giving the lowest stats- so it's the most cost effective pieces to cheap out on.

Doing this I can still reliably hit high greens/low blues week 1- Which is perfectly fine for me

Mind, I don't generally Week 1 an entire tier. Don't have time for alarm clocking.
