@Krazyrs, change Homam x3 and Turban into Perle and your stat changes are:

+14STR
+10DEX
+27.5Attack
+4.5Accuracy

Question for some clarification. Here's what I've currently got...

TP


Penta Thrust


Wheeling Thrust


I don't understand the math behind this game, to be honest, so basically, my main question is... Are you telling me that I could use the below set as replacements for all of the above sets in each of their conditions, and that it would still be better than any one piece of Askar or some other piece (other than Dusk Gloves +1 as you mentioned)?

People are refering to TP'ing only..not ws, Perle should have very little effect on your WS gears.

Juggalo Perle hands and feet would be an improvement for your weapon skill gear from what you are already using.

Most of the perle can be beaten in WS's.
But some of it can have its uses. Each depending on setup for WS / Food and mob.

Drg and drk are the only job that benefits from full perle.

Due to it matching Turban/homam setup for a drg and giving youa good dex/atk/acc setup.

Anything else shouldnt even think about it.

and why pray tell should a paladin not even think about it

paladin needs more acc so I'd assume noctournus body +homamz wins there

This isn't the drk forums, but since someone mentioned drk...

Homam X3 + Turban... still wins for your Zerg gear set.

Homam legs are still great for some spells too (because of the Fastcast), and also for casting Utsusemi if you're /nin.

You'll be fine without the Ecphoria as long as you get 17+ TP from Drakes back. 16, swap in Ecphoria for 5hits. This is if you really want to micromanage of course :p

Yeah, technically... it would be a 7hit/5hit rebuild.

7hits if you start from 0%TP, but takes you 5hits to get back to 100% TP with the TP from WS.

It's not a true one, but works equally well (in fact better since you will have 1% Haste or such in your ring slot most of the time)!

Hmm really... i guess i never counted my hits after a ws. I guess i can still keep my blitz ring for tp with the full perle set on.

Yeah it takes you 7hits to get to 100% from 0% TP...but you almost never start at 0% due to meditate if you're /sam. And if you don't miss your WS hits, it should take you 5hits to get back to 100% TP, so it works great usually. Then, yeah... let's you wear blitz ring etc.

I don't dissagree with OP but as a DRG who spends quite a bit of time as /mage I can't dicount the importance of all the +hp and +mp on homam etc. To keep people from asking this is my normal tp set:

I have Dex on my forager's and can sub in cuch in the uber rare circumstance acc is an issue (esp at 80) not to mention outside of abyssea i have yet to be in a merit pt that wasn't trying to sync below perle level. My point is that with speculation from SE stating "Trials in the future to augment existing equipment", and the gear thats being released as we speak you should still encourage people to try for existing gear (not saying you aren't). This set i have below wouldn't be possible for someone who stopped doing limbus/znm because they just assumed old gear was obsolete now:

*Edit* (DMG:83 Delay:492 DMG +15 Store TP +8) Stingray path
TL;DR: All gear has it's place and situation. New gear or Old should never cause anyone to be elitest about "this R teh Best set" and no 1 set is perfect 24/7

This set puts me at a 5 hit with /sam and carbonara. Any suggestions for tp build besides the obvious +2 upgrades?

Haste legs (Ace's / augmented bestia) Timarli hands a decent Att earring are good upgrades
