Christmas Break Update
Wow, so what have I been up to recently?
Christmas break, and I’m not touching Masspspectrometry until January 2nd! I’ve been levelling DNC like crazy! Lv.37 -> lv.54 during the christmas break. The Dagger merits are getting used! I’ll come back later with a picture, when I’m not looking too retarded in my mismatch outfitaru!
We did Einherjar yesterday. Only tier 1. Didn’t really clear, we finished off the Manticore boss, but remained was 2 Dark Elementals when we pinged out. We knew something was fishy when we got into the zone and the only mobs there was Dark Elementals and the Manticore boss. Seems like Sage Sundi forgot to mention that they were gonna implemend a new update into Einherjar! Mass PING outs!

Hilarious, LOL ensued, followed by panic and frustration!

Nuking gear
Like I mentioned earlier, I’ve been thinking of upgrading my equipment for SCH, since I lack a nuking setup (and detest it!), don’t even have all the IV nukes yet, (I’m a poor taru!).
So after reviewing http://kanican.livejournal.com/34049.html#cutid3 I’ve come to the, very brief, hysteria that I can manage the gear and get some decent nuking gear on my Taru!
| Main | Elemental Staves (need) |
Potency +15%, Hidden MACC |
| Ranged | Sweet Sachet |
INT +2 |
| Head | Argute Morterboard |
Skill +7 |
| Body | Scholar’s Gown +1 (need) |
INT +3, Skill +15 |
| Hands | Genie Gages (need) |
Skill +8 |
| Legs | Mahatma Slops (need) |
INT +8 |
| Feet | Goliard Clogs |
INT +4, MACC +2 |
| Back | Merciful Cape (need) |
Skill +5 |
| Waist | Argute Belt (need) |
INT +5, MACC +2 |
| Neck | Elemental Torque (need) |
Skill +7 |
| Ear 1 | Elemental Earring (need) |
Skill +3 |
| Ear 2 | Moldavite Earring | MAB +5 |
| Ring 1 | Tamas Ring | INT +5 |
| Ring 2 | Snow Ring (need) |
INT +5 |
So I need: All HQ elemental staves (except Terra’s Staff), which I use for Elegy on BRD.
What I need to be dropped is Synthesis Materials for SCH body, Argute Belt, Merciful Cape
Need to be bought is:
Snow Ring ~ 300k
Elemental Earring ~ 550k
Elemental Torque ~ 160k
Mahatma Slops ~ 280k
Genie Gages ~ 150k
Aquilo’s Staff ~ 130k
Jupiter’s Staff ~ 550k
Total: 2 120 000G /sigh
Set Bonus would be:
INT +32
Skill +45
M.acc +4
M.atk +5
Granting a Tarutaru SCH/RDM without Elemental Magic Merit nor INT merits, this would grant Skill 301 and INT 109
Anyone with any BLM or SCH experience that could tell how this would fair against HNMs?
