Decisions, decisions.
The WHM in me wants MP+25, Enmity -4, and of course "Cure" Potency +5% (this makes Blessed Trousers +1 only good for recasts on certain spells as well as melee situations). The BLM in me wants the "Magic Atk. Bonus"+4 and "Magic burst damage +10%". The BRD in me would take Haste+3% and Song recast delay-3. The RDM in me wants the movement speed more than most of the other stuff, due to no w.legs yet.
However, considering that I used my Royal Redingote for my melee WHM, and how I'm going to augment Selenian Cap to have MND+6, Fast Cast+2, and "Cure" Potency +3%, I will likely choose the option for WHM (hell, I'd even bring it along on my other jobs for cures, I've been known to bring Roundel along on BLACK MAGE).
DRK's 51 now. Doing AF for it sooner or later then I plan to level my WAR sub as well as my SAM sub.
Also, a shout to my wife kyegimyais due because she recently dinged Dragoon 75. We're working on getting her a Raidant Lance so she can obtain Drakesbane. A long road is ahead of both of us, as we are going to need a lot of end-game gear for our DD jobs to do well (moreso her than me, as no matter how many melee I ever miss with, I will always be a career mage).
My end-game wishlist for DRK, for example:
Einherjar (I will NEVER camp a Fafnir/Nid/Behe/KB/Adamantoise/Aspid ever again): E. Body, N. Head, N. Legs.(Though I can't say if I really need n.legs; n.head though definitely.)
Limbus: AF+1 items for the hands (only piece worth upgrading? Thoughts?) Homam hands, legs, feet.
Sea: Justice Torque. Gorgets for Guillotine, Spiral Hell, Spinning Slash, Ground Strike, and Insurgency.
Sky: N. hands, n. feet.
Misc. stuff: Dusk Gloves +1 (lol) Kraken Club (who didn't see this coming?) Gloom Breastplate Velocious Belt Decent HP Earrings and Rings for zerg setup.
Weapons: Apocalypse...?! (this is a huge maybe) Naglering for GS setup, until then I'll try for a Subduer or even use a Bahadur if I have no luck finding a decent rare/ex GS. Trying to get an Algol hasn't passed my mind either.
Plans for merits that involve DRK specifically: Scythe 8/8 GROUP 1 - 5/5 Last Resort, 5/5 Souleater Recast? GROUP 2 - This is where I'm at a standstill. Desperate Blows is definitely ideal for a zerg situation, so I'm going to max this. Muted Soul wouldn't be bad, considering Souleater generates a decent amount of enmity on its own. Diabolic Eye... eh, I don't see the real benefit of this. Dark Seal would be nice.
[Edit]
Oh, another side note that I forgot to post about. Wednesday night I decided to finally pop an Armed Gears that I was able to obtain the pop from the suckiest way - on an Iriz Ima fight I participated in for Avocat feet, everyone but me passed the drops - I was a bit afkish. The person that was meant to get Iriz Ima's Hide zoned before it dropped, and I ended up with it instead. Anyway, months later, we get back into contact about it, and I told her I still had the pop. She was shocked. She also had a pop, and we decided we'd let trophies go freelot, and have first priority on aurum and oracle's. Needless to say, it went JUST how we wanted it to. She popped it first, and oracle's gloves dropped - only way I get stuff usually is if I am the only one lotting from ZNM, and needless to say, I scored (Tomoe dropped on that pop as well, but my wife didn't get the winning lot on it). I popped mine after, and it dropped aurum feet, much to her dismay. 1/10, I believe, for her luck on said feet.
I decided to help with an Iriz Ima or two after that, in all cases, people only need trophies, with Avocat feet as well as the GS (though it is pretty much a toy) freelot on all pops. First one was a fulldrop and I managed to score them (after 117 times of helping with that damn thing), and Kye got the GS off the first pop. Second dropped hide only. Third was a full drop, again, with the GS falling to the floor and another mage scoring avocat feet. The plus of helping with this NM? I get to tank and kite, I actually have fun doing that. After doing 1700+ AMIIs on it constantly, who wouldn't be kiting? I can't think of another answer... |
