You can buy something before the weapon and still have enough when you acquire your 7th token.

Here's my buying plan so far.

450 - 0 (nothing): 450 3 tokens
900 - 825 (chest): 75 4 tokens
525 - 0 (nothing): 525 5 tokens
975 - 0 (nothing): 975 6 tokens
1425 - 1000 (weapon): 425 7 tokens
875 - 825 (pants): 50
500 - 375 (belt): 125

Temporarily moved to Omega since NA was having lots of problems. I do plan on going back to Leviathan once the 90 days are up.

So....Savage is out and i got a few questions for you =D

First of all, what kind of build are you going for?
up till now i maxed on DH and am running around with 2000 DH but with the new gear i can't reach that high, the highest i found for DH would be this:
http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11LVT
this should give us a ~40% chance on DH and roughly ~17,4% chance on Crit

but im actually thinking of going full crit, since the gear seems to hold a lot of crit, which would be this one:
http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11LVJ
with the we have only ~31% chance on DH but then again ~21% chance on Crit, and a little more DET XD

Which one are guys going for?

Next question....when are you ppl using Embolden? I'm using it right after Enchanted Zwerchau so that my 2 highest Potency hits get full bonus. Haven't aligend it with my Static to max out raid dps but still wonder if its placed there best or somewhere else.

And last one, Pot Usage xD
The new INfusion Pot's hold for a freaking 30s. I have noticed that if I have Manafication and Embolden up + full Mana its really nice to use after Enchanted Riposte since the pot will last for 2 melee combo's + finisher. But that can't be optimal for opener to hold your Manafication so long. For the opener im going like this right now (using optimal procs):
precast Veraero>Verthunder>Pot>Verfire>Verthunder>Fleche+Contre Six>Verstone>Veraero>Displacement+CaC>Verstone>verthunder(for difference)>Manafication> E.Riposte>E.Zwerchau>Embolden>E.Redoublement>Displacement>Verholy>CaC>using procs/oGCD till mana full like allways

When are you guys using the Pot? :3
Similar place or later? ^^

So, I just got Impact. Visually stunning but I don't get why it's a separate spell. It's basically like Enhanced Scatter or the enchanted weaponskills.

Been awhile since I've updated. Been visiting family on vacation and progging as much as possible. I've seen some questions so I'll try and answer best I can.

Pot usuage and Embolden - using it anytime before you use your melee combo. You want to try and weave your potion after a dualcast. And with my party comp, I'm using Embolden more for group benefit. I've been strictly using this opener.

PreCast Accler + Diversion + Veraero > Vethunder > Flèche + Contre > Ready Proc > DC thunder/aero > Corps + Embolden > Jolt or Ready Proc > DC thunder/aero > Displacement + Potion > Ready Proc or Impact > Mana + Corps > Melee combo
