Bard DD Set

I'll poke my head in here, but address the original OP. My main is ninja, but my guilty pleasure is DD bard. Not the best, but something to shoot for if you want to. Averages 2500-3500 on la theine worms with RCB, spiked to 4k once in a few hours; GH RR Apoc & Min5 March.

Heca head +1: Atk +8, Dbl Attack +2
Heca hands +1: Acc +5, Crit hit dmg +3
Heca feet +1: Str +3, Atk +5
Byakko's haidate: Agi +5, Crit hit dmg +3, Store TP +5
Kirin's Osode: Eva +6, Dual Wield +2, Crit rate +2





Neptunal legs are just stupid to get ahold of now, so don't even bother.

Good daggers?

STR Kila I've been considering.

until you get those, because fire weather is a ***, what about the BRD specific dagger/twilight?

Meh, Twilight/Felibre's you mean?

It'd work, but you'd do much better with many more options. Inside Abyssea, Oneiros Knife would be very nice for off-hand... If you wanna just buy a dagger, Gnadgott has a nice Dmg/delay, Verus Knife +1 would be decent as well.

Fusetto options could be nice too, but not sure how much ya wanna invest into Brd DD @_@

TP


I honestly don't know if this is the best... but it's the best I could think of.

WS


Obviously there is some better stuff like +1 Heca and stuff but meh.

Sure it's been adressed, but swapping instruments for your WS would eat your TP before it went off.

Heed Ring doesn't become a viable TP option just because it's cheap and looks cool, Keen or Mars's are better.

Hey look at this guy, so smart.
I guess we're all idiots for putting different instruments for ws and tp sets :(

If you lost tp when switching instruments, it would more or less completely destroy dd bard.

First of all, why is BRD clearly not meant to DD? Why does SE give them things like Mordant Rime which can do 600-1k easily outside Aby if they dont want us to melee occasionally? Back in the day of bird parties, melee brd was the ***! Second of all, /sack & /satchel say hello for extra gear.

To answer Brink's question, I made parizonium +2 2-4x attack dagger for my brd as an offhand dagger. I was in the process of making the dex magian dagger for mainhand when Shinyru stuff was released, so I just have been using twilight dagger for mainhand.

Surprisingly, brd is a REALLY easy job to get 26% haste on as well. I am currently trying to figure out where to lose some haste. Walahra turban (5), goli body (4), dusk gloves (3), bullwhip belt (7), byakkos (5), dusk feet (3) angel lyre (2) also use acc ring/rajas, brutal/aesir combo for earring & rings.

Mordant Rime is actually a really useful WS if you dont already have it, and is a CHR mod (easy to get gear for). Otherwise you should look into getting evisceration and making a build for it inside aby!

Have fun!

No one has yet to show a WS set for Exenterator :0
This is what I have as BRD/DNC WS for Exenterator out of aby. Yea I am aware that there are better pieces (new gear and such), but until I am able to get that~> This is it

Cap augs are +4 agi/str Weapon skill acc. +15 weapon skill dmg. +2%

Tp set~> (Just in case you ask XD)

I am in the process of obtaining Hect. Harness +1

Wouldn't an Osode augged with Double Attack or Dual Wield be tops? Attack is also a possible aug.

Haste+3 on Feets Hmmm..

!

Excuse my noobiness. What is the augment on the Thokcha?

STR/Attack
