Adaman Hauberk =

2nd Tarutaru on Midgard (Stephen being first -_-) with it, and only Taru Drk with one XD.

Getting it made is a tad less stressful; just dont want to break synth ><;

Errr....Corvus already has both the abjuration, and has had it made Kuma. He's in Valor, and he's been wearing it for a few weeks now. Although you are the only taru drk with it ^_^

I know atra.. keyword: Taru :p I said 2nd Taru with it.

Only NA's with it I know of is: Seikenx(EV Drk), Sakarau(EV Drk), Toan(HM Drk), Howler(GK War), Corvus(EV Drk), Stephen(TT Bst). Also nice that Howler got Ridill too now.

My linkshell has gotten 3 and I own one of them. I'd say you can use ridill for any hnm except gods/faf/nidhogg, just be prepared for the hate you're going to get. Behemoth, etc all those baby HNM are so easy to hit acc isn't even an issue, plus the rate at which ridill attacks makes up for missed hits as well.

I don't think many melee are capable of matching souleater/ridill damage combined. 250+ a hit easy for a full minute and attacking constantly is a beautiful thing, try it on adaman you'd probably take away 50% of its hp by yourself.

Your 1hnd sword cap is still to low to hit very much, its good vs weaker stuff i guess but things with high evasion that you have a hard time hitting with a scythe forget it. It would be kind of fun to use vs adaman-roc-behemoth-sim etc though. Nothing makes drk great at HNM just do yourself a favor and get rng to 75. The best thing you can do is be stun whore or light renkei starter bitch.

Maybe you're doing something wrong, Jingo? In AA I'm never a starter renkei. Also in our last Fafnir I left bd idle in auto attack mode while I was playing Elhaym and I was getting hate and eventually during the end of the fight I caused Fafnir to move due to standing at a bad angle.

Start Light renkeis? Uh, arching arrow is like a what, 500 damage all the time? Sneaked Spinning is more...

"But don't you get alot of hate if you're hitting multiple times for 100+ (since it attacks consecutively often)? Wouldn't that mess positioning, etc. for important fights like Fafnir."


Not if everyone stands near it's front foot. Faf/nid will just fling it's head to the side to hit you, this doesn't make him move or turn around. But if you get too far away from the foot then it can Flail you.

This pic might help with position:

Just having like 5 BLMs and forcing them to keep casting ThunderIV and just letting them die, awesome.

ridill is not much of a sword if you don't have kraken club to go with. I equiped kraken and ridill during behe/adam fight.
Souleater+lastresort+Bloodweapon = 30 secs end fight.
Ridill give me about 120-160 damage, kraken give about 100-130 damage. But it a good sword for mission and other AF quest stuff.

[gix]

so what's a better sword which drk can use, since ridill is not much of a sword?

[kumaeru]

Ridill is still best sword for Drk due to that attack 2-3 times.

Saying it's "not much of a sword" without club is being ignorant.

Not to mention that it's completely pointless to use ridill+kraken when doing the 2hr trick...kraken by itself hits a lot more times in 30 seconds then both weapons together will.
