Before we spam Kyou, I wanted to confirm, Unfaltering Bravado can be mitigated by Warder's Charm or Shadow Ring? I could have sworn I blocked them before when fighting Ou.

Series over for now, Kyou down! Might try Gin in the future and just free nuke him into oblivion. Will also try Reisenjima T4s if that's even possible. Thanks for the support everyone! Shout out to Xell and Z for helping me make these videos. Go SCH~

Xelltrix eats the Unfaltering Bravado while I tank it until he unweakens. We still dps it while he's unweaken or we'd time out.

Nuking all others would be taking things to pretty far extremes, I have a fastcast one, for use with my FC arts set that breaks the cap

Something I haven't yet done but is in the back of my mind is re-organizing my Fast Cast set for more HP. And for that I was thinking making a HP + FC cape because one of my current peeves is that I go from 2.2k hp in Idle set to ~1.7k HP in precast gear and loosing 500hp every time I cast something sucks donkeys.

hm, hq pinga would probably help you a lot with that if you aren't using them already.
example: FC+78 + arts to hit 80%; well over cap if /rdm

Here's my current:

ItemSet 368062

Just trying to avoid pinga cause i really dont like its lack of gear haste and also price tag.
Code
    -- Grimoire: 10(cap:25) / rdm: 15
    sets.precast.casting = {
		main="Musa",						--10  
    	ammo="Incantor Stone",				--2
		head=Amal.Head.A, 					--11
		body=Merl.Body.FC, 					--12
		hands="Acad. Bracers +3", 			--7
		legs="Psycloth Lappas",				--7
		feet="Peda. Loafers +3", 			--8
		neck="Twilight Torque", 	
		waist="Witful Belt",				--3
	    left_ring="Kishar Ring",			--4
	    right_ring="Weather. Ring",			--5
		left_ear="Loquac. Earring",			--2
		right_ear="Etiolation Earring",		--1
		back=SCHCape.FC,					--10
    }


Was thinking putting HP on the FC cape and tzacab grip, meh.

hm, acad. bracers +3 are FC+9, not 7. so you should be 4 over cap based on what I'm seeing.
could swap Twilight torque for a dualism collar +1,
and Kishar ring for etana ring without any loss in FC. (there are also rings with more HP but figured MP would also be good; meridian ring)
past that you'd have to boost FC which basically means adding pinga pants or body.

Ooh good catch, I guess I forgot to up my comment when I went +2 to +3 on gloves. Good suggestions though, I think those would be sufficient to bump up HP back to comfortable levels.

Just started SCH so just looking for all sets really. Was gonna pretty much use this OP and the old BG Wiki guide as starting points - but then I thought maybe theres things I would be wasting my time on if Omen gear or AF/RElic+3 was better.

Fast Cast was already posted on this page; my internet's crap so I avoid quick cast like the plague. Some use it a lot.
I'm going to use quotes where possible, as there's usually more discussion about those sets around the quoted posts.
for starters: cure

Chimerawizard said: »
here's a light weather set,
ItemSet 338349From what I see of Toralin's set, your focus is conserve MP after cure power/potency. Mine was enmity.

What are the current pieces for a regen/enhancing set?

Shiva.Arislan said: »
What's the general opinion on Chironic hose vs Acad. Pants +3 for light magic enfeebs? Is immunobreak worth passing up the extra macc from maxing out AF set bonus? /conflicted

(Gada vs Grio is tripping me up, too)

ItemSet 360663

next, nuking. Kaustra still requires obi to get 100% weather proc however helix spells always hit weather bonus regardless of whether you're wearing the obi or not.
Chimerawizard said: »
Elizabet's post is pretty much up to date from what I see. I just have a differing view on grip, 2nd ring & feet really.

I personally think arbatel loafers +1 just doesn't cut it anymore mostly thanks to the loss of magic accuracy in that slot. That really depends on what you're doing and how many buffs the scholar is actually getting.
ItemSet 367721
ItemSet 367722
ItemSet 367705
Chimerawizard said: »
likely similar to this. with potential swap to raetic staff +1 and merlinic body.
ItemSet 325975

Kaustra on the other hand. ugh...
Apparently someone discovered new stuff about it.
He suggested mizukage neck but that set may have been made before argute stole was available.
Looks like INT is super important.
ItemSet 325978

Link to his post where he explains his set; I only think I understand part of it due to google translate.

Oh and apparently the DoT from kaustra can do 25k/tick?! link
sets I didn't see when searching through the last 10 pages of the thread:
ItemSet 367743
ItemSet 363492
ItemSet 332150
ItemSet 332148
ItemSet 338116
after looking at the DEF & HP, shamash robe + 4/5 pinga+1 is probably better, but leaving as is.
ItemSet 338117
there's also idle:refresh but that is basically just dark matter augment hell + stikini rings.

Anyone actually use sublimation sets? I recovered my inventory and just roll with refresh. With the conserve mp, convert, mykr, aspir, even bombing t5 nukes I feel like mp is never an issue on SCH

pedagogy gown +3, useful for other reasons. If I had I would probably include in lua when sublimation is ticking.
academic's mortarboard +3, again, useful for other reasons. haven't checked but it's probably already in my lua.
The rest don't look like they're worth the inventory.

I haven't had MP issues on SCH in years.

Kinda like what Chim said, those 2 pieces I have for reasons. It's very nice to have as a set when i go /blm. Also, since you wanna maintain high HP while sublim is ticking, it's a dual purpose for me to make it the DT / Meva set as well.

So It's less about making a Sublim set, but more sliding sublim pieces to take advantage of it, into the DT / Meva sets. Especially when not with or /rdm.

two more, these I'm less sure about what's BiS as a MB aspir can suck out so much MP if it doesn't resist, that I consider MP+ a possible rival for more potency or MB. Not sure with that in mind if a path a amalric gages would win on MB set.

Nothing wrong with swapping feet. If you aren't at all worried about magic accuracy drop, could definitely also wear arbatel loafers +1
edit: amalric has basically the same magic accuracy as arbatel. next page I clarified a bit. merlinic are potentially better for damage and m.acc than either & jhakri are a good swap for magic accuracy if merlinic doesn't make the cut.
