Iota Ring Worth It?
Ramuh.Haseyo said: The point is - don't go talking about someone else using a not-so-good alternative when you are in the same boat yourself. Exactly. All the acc rings that are above +5 are really expensive.
Ramuh.Haseyo said: Exactly. All the acc rings that are above 5 are really expensive. ^ QFT Well I don't have an Iota Ring but I wouldn't say no to one. It's not that bad for two handers; better than Snipers, just not as good as Toreadors. Since a Toreadors is ~3m, this is a nice, free alternative. It's only a little less accuracy.
It's probably not as efficient a use of Ichor as, say, a Morgana's Choker or Aslan Cape for your RDM, but if you haven't got anything else to spend the Ichor on, then Iota's okay imo. I don't know why anyone would call it crap - that it certainly is not. Lakshmi.Aeyela said: Well I don't have an Iota Ring but I wouldn't say no to one.

I'm sure I'll end up with them all eventually anyway. The Italian girl is correct.

Iota is an excellent ring for certain jobs. I macro it in for Raging Rush (I tp in Rajas and Blitz). It's definately better than your standard 5 accuracy rings for 2 handers, and even for 1 handers provided you have enough dex. As for all the talk about it being difficult to get.... i'm not sure where that's coming from. Even if your linkshell doesn't do Einherjar I'm POSITIVE another LS would let you tag along for ampoules and help out if they have open slots (most do, since you can take 36 people in). Anyways, it's worth getting based simply on the fact that it's FREE. Good luck and hope u get what u want!

Headlong belt is crap, whenever I see someone using it I know they're a bad player. Go clone yourself, so you can go *** yourself. Sadly I agree, 0/6 on Swift. Just waiting 'til the June update for CoP area cap to disappear at this point so I can spend a day spamming it. *Let the rate downs begin!* I went 1/22 on Swift Belt, but it didn't stop me from going daily until I got it to drop, anyone one who steps down to getting that belt needs to have their POL account suspended until they learn from their poor choices. As for Iota Ring, I never really liked it, I thought it was kind of a poor persons choice if they couldn't afford a sniper's ring, I do have one, I used to use it and I wasn't really impressed with it at all, now I'm debating weather or not to throw it in my Blade: Jin macro or not.

It does seem defensive when someone only made a comment about your gear similar to the comment you made about other gear, and you respond with demands about cloning and self-***. Just saying. Sylph.Kozuki said: You're going out of your way to DOWNGRADE an item. Hey guys, is denali head > wala turban? Can of worms.jpg No, but seriously, that was a bit harsh of a statement given you don't have 'the norm' for gear.

Ramuh.Dasva said: WHOOSH Sylph.Kozuki said: uh? A woodsman ring is 50k which is 4000000x easier/faster to get than 15k Ichor for Iota, I can't buy a swift belt. Your argument is completely flawled. You're going out of your way to DOWNGRADE an item. I'm already aware iota is fine for 2h, I was talking about 1h jobs using Iota. Go to AH, spend 50k, save your 15k ichor if you're a 1h job.

This is what you said, missy. I see nothing about "ohlol1handersonry." You guys do know dex for crit works on tiers right? So if the 3 dex doesnt break a tier for you, your crit hit rate will not go up.
And jesus chirst, its a damn headlong belt. Its not like shes using a Warwolf belt or something in her TP set. Or should we get on everyone that uses a swift belt cause V belt is better? Or hell, even if you have a V belt, you're gimp cause N sash is better. Inb4 "LULZ BUT SWIFT IS EASIER TO GET!" Since you can control drop rates. >_> @Dasva(I heard you were a complete retard on ramuh and terrible at this game btw)
No prudence torque? Gimp much? 10 acc 10 attk mirke? really? I guess 3% dw is worse than 10 attk brb tping in okotes over dusk gloves! http://www.ffxiah.com/item_sets.php?id=117585 You have literally ZERO IDEA how macc/int/ele skill works. Just quit talking, stop thinking, quit playing, and sell your account to some RMT, he'll put it to better use. @Airbag, Really? You think with your ONE level 75 job, which isn't even very well geared at all, gives you the right to even THINK about commenting on a headlong belt vs swift, let alone say it? Seriously? How are those 2 int boots going? Assaults too difficult to do for a 100% DROP RATE(buyable) item that's better than everything besides 5/5 morrigans? 4 int ring instead of a 5? You have no room to talk, so don't even reply to me, actually, don't even post on these forums again. LULZ BUT SWIFT IS EASIER TO GET!
Had to do it. /shrug Ramuh.Haseyo said: Exactly. All the acc rings that are above 5 are really expensive. Also, with the level cap increasing Fairly shortly (About two months) it's very dangerous to invest in expensive AH gear right now. There's no telling what (If anything) will come out that will make things like Sniper's/Woodsman's/Toreador's Crash, and it's not an unprecedented event for that to happen, just ask any Leathercrafter. (Pre 2007) Accuracy is also one of the most misunderstood statistics, it is either the most important to melee, or the most worthless. So it really depends on what you do, what you need, and many other factors. And just because I want to be part of the baseless elitist flamewar. MARS'S RING OR GTFO THX LOL U SUK. Zilant Ring! Has as much acc as Mars and the 3 Dex might help you break crit tiers! ohohoho... And it's free :D
Sylph.Ashaaman said: Zilant Ring! Has as much acc as Mars and the 3 Dex might help you break crit tiers! ohohoho... And it's free :D Hasn't even been found yet I think. As if VNM wasn't bad enough with the upwards of 100 kills just to evolve a clear to a colorful, let's *** it up more by making rings 5%. AWESOME! Why would you call some on a Bad player if they use this ring. Especially if they are using for a TP ring the dex will give another crit usually every TP build round. Plus the +1 acc ring are astronomically priced. It's not a WS piece except for a couple jobs pending your set up. My point is that this a decent challenge to tough TP ring build ring for the normal players. I have one and use it on DRK for my TP build and enjoy the extra stats over a Woodsman Ring.

While we are at gear then. Get some dusk +1 boots. They only like 3.5 mil. And if you want to QQ about money well theres a cuch mantle in there... rajas ring where? What why don't you have a love torque!?! What no Novio earring!?! Relic belt etc? And good luck nuking anything hard in that setup lol. Seriously only +48 int and 25 skill and no macc except maybe MKE head on ice nukes and you still can only scrape together 12 MAB for dmg? Assuming you are hume that puts you at 125ish int and 297 skill if fully merited and only nuking ice without obi + whatever that head is giving you. Lulz if you do know how int/macc/skill works then you are purposefully gearing for resist which is even funnier. The funniest part is my rdm nuke set which isn't really used that much has like 10 more int, 4 more MAB, and while it has 5 less skill it has 11 more macc. Hmm I have an Iota ring, my only 75 jobs are PLD + RDM.
While on PLD I like a Hercules' / Jelly Ring combo there will be that time when i'm against a magic casting mob and don't want to be using Jelly so I would switch to Iota. But since I got Rajas it builds up the cobwebs. Dasva, just stop. For some reason you have it in your head that SCH can't nuke at all.
Why do you have Valkyrie's Hat in your "max resist build" when BLM Relic hat is +10 Skill? I think you are missing the point, if you are going to call people out over something like hedlong belt vs swift belt, then people will call you out if you are missing gear that is clearly better and not that hard to get.

Meh I like I taking more dmg. It was mostly to see how much macc instead of skill I could get. And you are missing the entire point of this. 1: I wasn't the one to point out the headlong belt 2: The only reason anyone pointed out headlong belt on her is because she said "Iota ring is crap, whenever I see someone using it I know they're a bad player." No one was going omg headlong belt is so garbage don't wear it. They are just saying that someone who says something like that shouldn't be. The really funny part is my gear is overall way better than most and aside from af+1 and some magian weapons there is pretty much little room for improvment that is easy to get. Way to not read the thread. And another one gets whooshed |
