Khepri Kecks are only slightly better than Abetteur Subligar, and the latter is likely obtainable:
http://wiki.bluegartr.com/bg/Umagrhk

It has STR/DEX+10, Atk+14, Acc+7, and something else. It is my reason for wanting to do meebles now. We don't have it on bgwiki (or in the .dat mines) because SE changed the item information formatting and stuck it in a different .dat. Rest assured, top minds in the field are working on it.

Khepri Kecks and Khepri Bonnet are both potentially useful for TP too, so they at least aren't inventory -1.

It's almost annoying that the subligar exists, because it outdates Kheper Kecks in every way. Now Khepri Kecks are another synth where the NQ is ***and the HQ is awesome.

To make it worse, there's no CC torque.

Yeah, Tier 0 like the Khepri Jacket (which people pay 100mil+ for and which requires essentially the same ingredients).

Also, the Bonnet isn't that hard to get, nor is the head abjuration. If you do Legion for even a little while you'll doubtlessly have the opportunity to grab T.head. I think we've floored almost one of everything except C.feet at this point.

Isn't that one of the deleted items?

It's real. They formatted the item .dats for it differently and NA/JP .dat mining tools don't pick it up.

Ah, hadn't checked the Meebles thread yet today.

Abatteur Subligar
DEF:50 STR+10 DEX+10 Accuracy+7
Attack+14 "Subtle Blow"+5
Haste+5%
MNK, THF, BST, RNG, NIN, BLU, COR, PUP, DNC

2 less STR/DEX, 4 more attack, 7 more acc, 5 less eva, 3 less subtle blow, and haste equivalent to a NQ Khepri augment. That's... honestly pretty good, especially considering what a *** Khepri are to get.

It's especially not bad when you consider it's a "casual" event reward.

I have a quick question: if you're doing dagger ws trials for TP bonus
and just doing x weapons skill on y mob, would you gain credit from any party members that use x weapon skill that meets your trial requirements?

Pretty sure that only applies to Relic/Mythic WS trials! But I'm not entirely sure.

You don't receive credit unless you do the WS yourself. Tested while working on TP bonus dagger for someone else.

Gusterion. A mildly good dagger for Dynamis.

Actually it is indisputably the pinnacle and absolute king of offhand daggers for solo dynamis farming.

1 shadow, 5 second duration, fairly generous proc rate on the add effect. Delay's a little on the high side but all things considered that's going to mitigate a large portion of incoming damage taken, which translates to more WS over time and less JA delay from waltzes. Add in 15 AGI as Exenterator mod and it looks like a winner to me.

Now you just have to get what is likely a 1% (0.1%?) drop from a fight you can do once every 5 days. Not a problem.

I suspect the drop rates from Meeble on pulse panoplia are much higher than their counterparts elsewhere.

But don't expect them to rain from the sky.

Hm, 2/32 on FFXIDB so far. I guess 5% drop rate would be reasonable given the limitations on entry.

But yeah, gusty is in my rough draft for the upgraded thread front.

I've been out of state for ... Reasons, so I'm slow getting it polished.

Huh, I didn't realize it has more AGI than a wind Thokcha. It's +10 Delay that got to me, but mitigating damage more than makes up for it I think. If you think acquiring this dagger is gonna suck, think of the THFs who went after an X's Knife back in the day with the once per conquest tally bs. Well, not that this is much different...

Difference being that Gusterion has a highly specific use, X's knife was good all around.

Did you miss the parts where I said "specific" and "solo"?

A very good highly specific use nonetheless. We can see use for it on other solo activities in addition to what is to come in the new expansion. It saves us time to not make two wind Thokcha's. We know it's not the only good thing to get from burrows that can keep us coming back for.
