For The Shinies! A Guide For Thief

Hard to say without knowing what else you have (ie: Qaaxo), but noteworthy pieces are:

- AF hands: boosts Trick and crit damage (fodder and WS piece)
- AF legs: crit damage, attack, and accuracy (worth wearing fulltime)
- AF head: crit damage and accuracy (good for WS)
- Relic feet: Triple attack rate and damage bonus (worth using fulltime unless you are hurting for accuracy)
- AF/Relic body: it depends-- AF offers highest acc and crit damage, while relic offers crit rate/damage, more STR/DEX/AGI, and the Ambush bonus of 1% triple attack per merit. I personally think you can get less costly accuracy options if you're not willing to upgrade the AF. This one is gonna depend on the things you use THF for, your merits, and overall playstyle.
- Relic hands: TH+3, but also they have exceptional evasion and decent accuracy.

I'd prioritize them based on what you can get, and what slots are currently your weakest. I would say the AF hands are probably the best piece to start with since the Trick Attack boost is substantial, and Beryllium Ingots are pretty cheap on our server.

Why give a Thf a club (Eosuchus Club) and his skill is d+. I recently got this NICE Club but my main is Thf, (BOO to you if you think Thief is just a job to farm with. My LS hates when I off hand this weapon although using my relic (119) is far better I still like to thrash about using a club in my off hand with 130 dmg. Why give a thf a club?

This club is the remake of Titan's Cudgel. Back in the days of Sky this was a pretty popular item for a THF to use as the combination of SA with a blunt-damage single-hit WS (True Srike) was especially brutal against magic pots, which you brought THF's for since you needed a drop from them. It was a novelty piece back then and they're just keeping with that today.

I have asked this before in another thread but it went unanswered so I thought that perhaps the thief forum would be the more appropriate place to ask this.

With Feint, do you have to have the relic legs equipped as you activate the ability or as you strike the mob?

When you strike the mob with Feint.

I lub you Ocelot gloves :I

So has anyone put together a ranged gearset, yet? We're getting xbows and guns, I'm thinking of playing COR as a side job, so looking to get my ranged on.

I don't understand why anyone would make a Last Stand set for THF

For practical purposes its pretty much pointless, but for this foreign alien concept called "Fun", its actually quite tops. Subjectively.

must be fun carrying all those junks with limited inventory space just for the purpose of I can hit a few K damage on a low level ***that no one really care even if your melee SMN can hit a few K. in the old days thf carried a range set for drain bolts only for soloing NMs, but the game completely changed with no new timed NM or the need to drain hp with the introduction of trust. I don't know why thf still carrying a range set.

I haven't really looked at hands or belt slot, though. Alruna's gloves look pretty solid and probably elanid belt, as well.
