| Pondering COR/DNC build Well, finally polished of DNC as a sub and have DNC nearly ready for a static PT that will start in the coming weeks, much like SCH, I've taken quite a shine to it and enjoy the role.
And seeing as it extremely compatable with my existing COR gear, I see no reason not to do a little advance work on high level DNC gear since /DNC appears to work rather well with COR. Granted, it does mean giving up most of the gunplay I enjoy on COR, but at 75, I feel /DNC may be more suitable for merits, Limbus, Dynamis and Assaults than /WHM would be. For Gods/HNMs, mage subs still retain some advantages, but I have most of the MP gear I want already and will probably round out MP merits soon.
For COR/DNC, I'm thinking mostly of rehashing my /RNG build with a few tweaks:
- I keep all hats I use already, favoring Tricorne for QDs and then use Optical Hat and Walhra Turban as the situation calls for it.
- Switch out Crimson Finger Gauntlets for Dush Gloves
- Switch out Gun Belt for Swift Belt.
- Switch out War Boots for Dusk boots.
- Dusk Trousers stay for now, quest Ashu Talif for Barbossa Zerehs.
- Reobtain PCC, probably sell my Qiqirn Collar for good, I liked PCC better but sold it for Dusk Trousers.
- Earrings stay the same, but maybe favor Hollow Earring over Fenrir's Earring for /DNC, maybe finally get off my ass and get to work on getting Brutal earring. Suppanomimi stays constant for melee.
- Keep Raja's, substitute Sniper's Ring for Jalzhan's Ring,
- Back piece, stick with Amemet +1
- Stick to Joyeuse for main hand, maybe pick up a Mercurial Kris for 50 and 60 capped events.
So basically, I'm looking at a bigger haste and melee accuracy built and shedding ranged accuracy. QD Build would still be a fixture no matter what. To be honest, most of what I have right now is more than adequate to do the task, but since most of this stuff will also be used by DNC when it catches up, I see no harm in working toward it now if it gets me more out of the subjob. |
