    Can I piggyback a question on this thread? Not really worth making a new one

    I'll have 8 pages next week, really torn on whether I should get the gun or chest

    right now rocking the 360 24-man chest. Skill speed ; ; ; ;

    The 365 Tsuku weapon isn't all that bad

    I really want to get the chest, since when I upgrade the other ring I'll have to pick up more skill speed. I also feel like I have a better shot getting a coffer and/or weapon drop since I mainly still get my clears on war until I learn it better on mch. But the gun is an awesome gun of course.

    So, should I get the chest or the gun? Heavily leaning toward chest just because of secondaries. I know the gun will help my dps more, probably, but I feel like I need to learn the fights better to really take advantage of that.

    Hmm. The crafted upgraded chest is better than the Ridorana one. That + diamond gun would probably be best short term. But you're right that the tsukuyomi gun isn't that bad. Diamond still wins out easily but skill speed can be problematic as you know. You arguably have a better chance of getting the gun as a direct drop though as you say. Up to you really, depends how much speed you're willing to tolerate in the short term.

    Yea, if wasn't so late in the cycle I'd consider crafted chest, but don't really want to overmeld at this point.

    Welp.. Still undecided. Might just have to flip a coin when it comes time lol

    Depends.
    Is this a static or pug situation? In a pug I might be more inclined to buy the coat since the coffer is FFA.
    You get a guaranteed weapon someone can use every week in the form of the coffer - do you get free lot on those (especially for an alt job)?
    If the brd/mch coat drops, would you get free lot on that?

    Personally, I never got the coat to drop but it's easy enough to get a coffer in my static now that all our mains are kitted, so I used my books on the coat.
