Spent the last month or so fishing for my Haubergeon, and finally doing a full overhaul on equipment.
And, what equip are you saving towards?

Soldar stopped staring at Deedlit long enough to write:
How much does the Ochiudo's Kote run on your server? It's about 420-450k here right now.And, what equip are you saving towards?
Kote is about 500k. Saving up for a Sniper's Ring atm. Topped with my Ronin Ring I'll have +31 acc when my TP is below 100% and +26 acc when it's above 100%. Next item on my list is a haubergeon, which is about 1.3 million, I will end up selling the sniper, my master's gi, and my valk mask to fund it. That's about 900k right there.
Should be at +15 STR, +44 ATK, and +24 ACC at level 59... Simply don't do enough damage otherwise, I've found. Then again, I'm keeping up with some crappy Dark Knights.
Haubergeon, Kote, Spike Earrings, Royal Guard's Collar for the Attack,
Sun Rings, Myochin Haidate, Royal Knight's Bascinet and Haubergeon for the STR,
and Life Belt, Haubergeon, and Royal Guard's Collar for the ACC.
I never liked the -DEF on the Sniper Rings, personally.
I'm just having a little trouble hitting stuff, figure the sniper would be a quick fix.
Oh, I should throw out my linkshell's homepage.
I occaisionally do updates for them, and I wrote a guide on Skillchains...
Then there's the video of me dying at the bottom of the updates page. Soldar fucked around with this message on 09-17-2004 at 04:54 PM.
I think once I get the sniper I'll snag a Archer's Knife and pick on those antican rangers outside of Rabao, since I can't find any worms.
The whole Spirits Within thing seems... anti-Samurai-ish. Because it doesn't chain with anything, or even interrupt skilchains.
If you want to level up archery fast... Grab a Speed Bow, and get a group down in Garlaige fighting Chamber Beetles... and about 2500 wood arrows. Brought my archery up 50 points in about 4 hours. Then again, I was always the puller, and I had a level 45 Thief before I quit that job. So I had a base of about 125-ish archery before heading into the Citadel.
You understand the whole thing about skillchains doing more damage if it's a longer total SC, right? An example here, would be when I fought the WHM AF1. (125% Fragmentation on the Sidewinder)
Not too many people read the forums, so I hope they don't exceed angelfire's crappy bandwidth limit. My LS's filebox is down. Soldar fucked around with this message on 09-19-2004 at 11:24 AM.
Since I have a set now, I can level Ranger during non grouping days to help get archery up.

Verily, Kael doth proclaim:
Spirits is more of a HNM thing, start the fight with a clean 500+ damage.
Hmm. Didn't think about that one. Throw the 2 Hour in there with Meditate, and an Icarus wing, and pull off a quick 2000 damage, assuming that you're not getting hit.
(300%, SW, Meikyo Shisui, SW, Meditate to 300%, SW, Icarus Wing, SW)
Though, I think I might level up warrior after seeing my friend Darke bust Hakutaku's chops with 1024 Steel Cyclone vs. my piddly 275~300 Asuran Fists. Skaw fucked around with this message on 09-19-2004 at 04:47 AM.

Kael had this to say about (_|_):
Can't gain TP while Meikyo is up. But that would still do a lot of damage. Just need to keep your HP up.
Meditate works, I know that. Just can't get TP with melee attacks.
Don't know about the Icarus Wing though.

Icaurs Wing works. It's needed for the 7-Weapon Skills-In-A-Row tactic to beat Maat as a Samurai.

Is it 7 Weapon Skills?
I've heard other people say that you need to make a level 1, a level 2, and a level 3 skillchain in a row on him. Others say just a level 3. And everyone else says "Pound the fuck out of him." D:
How do Icarus Wings work anyway?

It should be 6 weapon skills in a row.
100%, Meikyo Shisui, Meditate during Meikyo, and Icarus Wing.
I did a 5 Hit without an Icarus wing on the WHM AF1 (which I fixed the link for) and did a 125% damage Fragmentation with Sidewinder... which made me feel good.
I need to look at my SC Chart to see if you can do a Self L3 chain... Without Kasha I mean.
So the way we'd do an L3, would be Enpi -> Enpi = Distortion -> Gekko = Dark. And for Maat, we could do that one twice.
What I would prefer doing (if we had a WS capable of hitting for a compression) would be Gekko, Yukikaze, (Compression WS that we don't have), Enpi, Jinpu, Gekko, for a pumped up Dark SC.
Since I'm in a melee heavy set my TP is rarely over 100% for very long, this makes my Ronin's Ring (+5 acc if tp at/is under 100%) work like a Sniper's. This means I can get a Sun Ring for the open slot. I'll have my AF helm by 60 for sure, so selling the mask might not be a bad idea.
I hate that my static party broke up.
2 terrible groups, an okay group, and soloing 1000 exp later... I proudly wear my Haubergeon.
+24 Accuracy, +44 Attack, and +15 STR (I'm not wearing my RK Bascinet, because it's ugly as sin.) Soldar fucked around with this message on 09-27-2004 at 01:10 AM.
I should be 60 by the weekend and have a pretty good idea on how I'm gonna save up for my Haubergeon.
... yeah, you'll progress in levels much quicker than myself...
Having a static party is so much faster for leveling post 50.
Though, now I'm a smooth pimped out player from the streets... or something. Soldar fucked around with this message on 09-27-2004 at 08:36 AM.
On a good note I did get the key off the first Temple Bee we killed. I only took an hour to search for it so far, oh well tomorrow is another night. There have to be JP players that still need that map and are willing to deal with those "3 impossible to solo spawn points".
I mean, we snagged the Eldieme Necropolis coffer key, Crawler's Nest, Quicksand Caves, and attempted the Ugly temple one... Needless to say, A level 58 Paladin, 58 White mage, and 58 Samurai are going to have some problems alone.
Congrats on your coffer key though, it's the first step to that Domaru... And I'm going to need that Domaru if I'm ever going to take a hit.
Oh, by the way... Yukikaze with SA is actually pretty good. It's some good damage.
My set has this make up: sam/war(/thf, /rng?) drk/war(/nin), thf/nin, rdm/blm, and whm/blm(/smn, /brd). I'm thinking about taking Ranger up to 30/32, so I can use Sidewinder with Guillotine. But I think farming for a Haubergeon is more important.
Mine and my girlfriends characters schmoozing in Hall of the Gods(Would've been Ru'Aun, but she doesn't have the cerulean crystal yet.)
I should've taken that shitty looking hat off. Eh, oh well.

Heads up for Sidewinder, as you're going to need a lot... and I mean a LOT, of Ranged accuracy... to make it land half the time, on VT's and IT's at least. I don't like Ranger sub in exp groups. Thief sub makes me accurate and useful for SC's, so that's generally what I like staying with. A guaranteed WS to chain with = consistant bursts in my opinion. And it really needs to be pretty consistant, if you want to fight Toramas in Onzozo. Those kitties are fast.

Skaw impressed everyone with:
Heh.. Toramas..... No amount of Accuracy Gear will help you hit those things.
Yeah... which is why I love SA for them... I'll be damned if I'm going to not have a weapon skill land on those things.
We have a saying in my LS about Toramas.
FUCK Toramas.
I'm giddy.
Also: what are the current good information sites? I completely forget the ones I used to use. Alaan fucked around with this message on 10-08-2004 at 04:37 PM.
Who will give me money and a world pass. I dont have my Seyna account anymore, it got nuked. But i do still have my freebie account.

A world pass would indeed be nice. Especially since my char is only a whopping level 3 right now!
