I believe you auto-cap the Ninjutsu Skill potency on the spell with just your native skill. I'm guessing because it makes it wear off earlier then you actually want it to correct? Thank you for the answers. Just to make sure I understand the Aeonic Aftermath correctly:
Shun(3k TP) -> Hi -> Kamu -> Shun -> Shun would be Gravitation -> Fragmentation -> Light -> Radiance and all SCs would get 10% SC dmg bonus? eliroo said: » Odin.Llewelyn said: » Empyrean Body is a detriment to use with Migawari; same as Ambuscade cape, but there's no getting around that one with how awesome Ambuscade capes are.

Also your MB damage scales with the number of steps you have in a skillchain, so there's also that to consider. But yes, 4-steps are generally the way to go if you can. Some people like to try doing longer skillchains, but you start really increasing the risk of having your long SC interrupted by misses, stuns, poor RNG, etc.. Personally I'm not a fan of multi-stepping on NIN because lulKamu, so I go on other jobs if I want to do that sort of thing. I am very unfamiliar with aeonics, is why I asked. SO ideally you would 4 step light, mb san and lagh as the mob dies? seems fun to me! If only they would make relic ws usbable if the relic is used offhand.... metsu is the full reason I would hate to use aeonic. I love that dang ws and its sooo consistent. Aeonic aftermath gives your weaponskill either Light/Darkness property. The aftermath can be consumed to make radiance when doing a "level 4" type skillchain (Light -> Light or Darkness -> Darkness). The aftermath level corresponds to the minimum number of steps required for this to work. Level 1 aftermath - 4 steps Level 2 aftermath - 3 steps Level 3 aftermath - 2 steps Adding to this in that you can make Light/Darkness when aftermath is up if the above conditions are not meant. 1000 TP Shun -> 1000 TP Shun = Light with AM1 up The aftermath will not be consumed and you can repeat if you want. It's not ideal for solo DPS but it may be ideal for less coordinated group DPS. If you're paired with a BLU, for example. Ten -> CDC or CDC -> Ten = Darkness Shun -> CDC or CDC -> Shun = Light (with AM1 up) Verda said: » eliroo said: » Odin.Llewelyn said: » Empyrean Body is a detriment to use with Migawari; same as Ambuscade cape, but there's no getting around that one with how awesome Ambuscade capes are.

Thank you for the answers. I remember reading a post in this thread that the in the JP client it says +5 Migawari and not +5 Mikage - Not sure how accurate that is.

Okidoki then, added that info to the wiki to spread the information about the misinformation.
Hello!
It's a bad setup for blade: hi? Code
ammo="Happo Shuriken",
head={ name="Rao Kabuto", augments={'STR+10','DEX+10','Attack+15',}},
body={ name="Ryuo Domaru", augments={'HP+50','"Store TP"+5','"Dbl.Atk."+2',}},
hands={ name="Ryuo Tekko", augments={'DEX+10','Accuracy+20','"Dbl.Atk."+3',}},
legs={ name="Herculean Trousers", augments={'Accuracy+25','Weapon skill damage +3%','AGI+9','Attack+14',}},
feet={ name="Rao Sune-Ate", augments={'HP+50','Crit. hit rate+3%','"Dbl.Atk."+2',}},
neck="Rancor Collar",
waist="Fotia Belt",
left_ear="Steelflash Earring",

left_ring="Apate Ring",
right_ring="Epona's Ring",
back={ name="Andartia's Mantle", augments={'AGI+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','"Dbl.Atk."+10',}
With Innin up user hattori head. The set was tying put DA and critical hit rate. but dmg no good! Got Kanarie, Ochu, Mijin, vagary katana, Raicho Tancho. Working on Kikoku 90 now. Asura.Squallbr said: » Hello! It's a bad setup for blade: hi? Code

With Innin up user hattori head. The set was tying put DA and critical hit rate. but dmg no good! Got Kanarie, Ochu, Mijin, vagary katana, Raicho Tancho. Working on Kikoku 90 now. I don't know the perfect set but I can take a stab at it. Blade: Hi is an AGI Based, Single Hit Crit Weapon skill meaning that you will get the more value from Crit Rate, Crit Damage, Weapon Skill damage and AGI (Not in that order). I'd recommend: Ammo: Yetshila (+1) Head: Adhemar Bonnet Body: Abnoba Kaftan/ Herc Vest (+10-15 AGI, 40Acc/Atk, 4% WSD) Hands: Herc Gloves (+10-15 AGI, 40Acc/Atk, 4% WSD) Legs: Herc Trousers (+10-15 AGI, 40Acc/Atk, 4% WSD) Feet: Herc Boots (+10-15 AGI, 40Acc/Atk, 4% WSD) Back: Ambuscade Cape (+20 AGi, 20 Acc/Atk 10% WSD) Rings : Heiteraoi (sp), Begrudging Belt: No clue Neck: No clue? Iga neck? Earring: Moonshade + Ishvara Also don't worry about putting on the Empyrean head with Innin up. That is close to what I'm going for. Though if you are getting your Kikoku up there, I'd focus on getting the same Herc Augments but with DEX instead of AGI. (Since Blade: Metsu is DEX based and Single hit)

yes, unless I need hi for a sc I always use metsu/shun/then for best results.
I'll try to spreadsheet an optimal set when I get to gearing Hi for myself, but most the options eliroo listed are good. I'd suggest Svelt. Gouriz +1 or Crudelis Belt for waist, Moepapa Medal for neck, and wouldn't use Heiteraoi since multihit won't help use Apate as the other ring perhaps.
Seems odd to me:
Relic Head ( Assuming 5/5 Merits) 22 Int 30 Mab + 25% Damage Calculated afterwards Ryuo 11 Int 20 Mab + 15 Ninjutsu Skill ` 7.5% Increase given you aren't capped. Relic very clearly wins on paper. Well the way it's worded I think relic head is 15 mab and 15 base damage, I'm also not sure the augment for Increases elem. ninjutsu III damage is understood. At least, I've never seen testing for it. I'll report again after I master and get better sets.
Edit: and yep I'm 5/5 Edit 2: I hadn't locked GS like I usually do for testing, was my bad. 4791 is with relic head for san and relic head is also better for Ni. Thanks eliroo. Bit off the current theme but I wondered if you guys have bothered building a fastcast cape for, you know, casting...?
Bismarck.Nimla said: » Bit off the current theme but I wondered if you guys have bothered building a fastcast cape for, you know, casting...? I personally have. It's essential if you want to floor Utsusemi recast timers. For precast it doesn't matter as much because you have 20 ninjutsu cast time reduction from job points. Has anyone ever confirmed or denied if Daken can count as an additional hit in weaponskills?
Bismarck.Nimla said: » Bit off the current theme but I wondered if you guys have bothered building a fastcast cape for, you know, casting...? Yes. Go for it. Bismarck.Nimla said: » Bit off the current theme but I wondered if you guys have bothered building a fastcast cape for, you know, casting...? But eventually I'll probably make one, if I don't quit this game before then lol Has anybody here ever received a Triple Attack +4 augment on a Kanaria? I have seen +3 using a Pellucid Stone, which leads me to think that it is possible, although I have personally never seen it.
Fenrir.Snaps said: » Has anybody here ever received a Triple Attack +4 augment on a Kanaria?

Also I made a FC cape too, its good and worth it. Asura.Azagarth said: » Fenrir.Snaps said: » Has anybody here ever received a Triple Attack +4 augment on a Kanaria?

Also I made a FC cape too, its good and worth it. It took me like 600 stones to get a Fast Cast 6 augment on Herculean Helm. I know I have not used this many on Kanaria. Hopefully others can chime in and share their experiences. Fenrir.Snaps said: » Has anybody here ever received a Triple Attack +4 augment on a Kanaria?

Yes that's the inferred conclusion. Have you actually witnessed it? Wait, FC on Herculean caps at 6? Thought cap was 4%, 5 with Fern
I have a 5 , and a 6 from a dark matter, I also thought it capped at 5.
6 is definitely possible using just Fern (I have one), although very rare.
