Sigurd's Descendants: The Art of Dragon Slaying.
So how bout that new Cover for the wyvern, eh?
So the big question is... Is it still worth it to r15 Trish or not?
I have a sliver left on my aeonic clear mask which will be done on Sunday. Just not sure on differing opinions.

Hold please while we process the update. Please check back in 48 to 72 hours.

Wonder why they would make it only work on the first hit given that Dragoon specializes in having multi hit weapon skills. We don't have any 1 hitters with damage varies with TP except Full Swing and Retribution.

Hmmm my Gungnir is R15ed, might resubscribe to mess with it.
The trait only works when wyvern is out or does it just scale with its level? My questions is does /drg get use of this at all
It gets 7%. I went MNK/DRG and got the trait. There are two unique bonuses: one 6-tier trait called "Weapon Skill Damage Bonus" (21%), and another passive trait that is linked to your wyvern's level-up bonus (10% max). The 1st (and only) subbable tier for /drg would get 7%, making it a little better for hate shedding sub job of choice.

I am really excited to get home and test my own numbers since I don't own a RMEA for drg yet, and just want to see what I can do lol.
Was poking selkit and avgd about39k a ws. Had 2 geos and a cor for buffs.atk was at about 3.3k tho not sure what i should sit at to cap it.
R15 Gungnir is pretty nice. Especially when spamming at 1k TP.
If there is TP overflow you can still use Stardiver.
I think Trish still wins for pure damage/ideal buffs.
But Gungnir is a really nice weapon when fighting multiple enemies with groups of people. Not to mention it's probably are strongest option for spamming light skill chains.
I tried out Cam. Torment and it wasn't too hot.
The only thing I hate about 1 hit weaponskills is:
-Low tp return, even more so since you are stacking WSDMG gear.
-If it misses, you also miss out on dealing a huge chunk of damage. Missing the first hit on Stardiver only screws with your tp return.
Sonic Thrust got a really nice boost with this. It becomes an even stronger cleaving weaponskill.
Impulse with Shining one seemed kinda lack luster compared to the lances I mentioned, even at 3K tp.
I'm too tired to do math stuff. Get both :P

^came up with this for DRG/NIN with swords. Emicho hands path D. DRG can use a few swords, such as Tanmogayi +1, Vampirism, Hepatizon Rapier +1. Figured OAT on the offhand could perform better than the other options.

I did the same thing. Go /dnc though, you still hit haste cap and it has a few better features for keeping yourself alive (since shadows are iffy now of days).
Also, you can cap haste single wield with /dnc as well, amazingly. Drg power go go!
As far as offhand swords, there are not many options though. I went with the same one, though I suppose you could wield a kaja sword OH if you need more acc/atk/stats.

OAT sword off hand seems like a waste since DRG gets a fair amount of multi attack imo.
Naeg/Kaja might be pretty solid.
Messing with bats/trusts
Gungnir
Trishula
I know it doesn't really prove anything. I tried going all out with both. Just trust buffers like Sylvie/Qultada/Haste 2/Dia 3.
Stardiver is a hell of a lot easier to gear for though.

Dont have the trish yet, so terrible polearm instead.

Fotia for savage?
Dont you get better mileage out of drg JSE neck and any str/atk belt?
Without a tp bonus offhand or range I’m afraid those savage blades won’t be all that great anyways unless holding TP.

You are correct, though there are times piercing damage does jank.
Gonna do more conclusive testing after work, but as of right now, it looks like our new trait and the wyvern bonus are additive with gear WSD, but they also apply to all hits of a weaponskill.
Thanks for posting a dual wield set, it gave me an idea for how to test it out without praying for RNG misses.
I'll go into more detail when I've got time for a proper write up.

I'm hoping it does apply to all hits. But my Stardivers don't "feel" any different. My current buffs/trusts are too inconsistent though.

Is that just one cherry picked out of a few? What was the average looking like.
Niqmadu Proc, full crits, etc?
It wasn't worth holding TP just to see those numbers.
Asura.Yso said: »
I was checking wiki. Hepatizon rapier +1 has higher dps than kaja sword offhand and comes with two mild savage blade modifiers in str/mind.
Are you guys considering perfect Vampirism? Seems tailor-made for SB with STR+25 and Attack+23.
Wsd usually only applies to first hits I thought?

It does, and it should, that doesn't mean they didn't screw up just like last time.

Traditionally any listed on gear is only for the first hit of a WS. Same with Gifts.
However, if
