Best equip at lvl 60?

[Darkani]

Ive stopped leveling now to get the absolutely best equip I can (dont care about money)
Im elvaan so I need acc.


this is what i am planning to use
weapon: GK lance (61)
Head: Mermaids Gorget
Neck: Peacock Charm
Hands: AF?
Rings: Sniper ring (or was it sniper earrings?)
Earrings: not sure here
Body: Scorpion Harness
Feet: AF?
Legs: AF?


Anything better I can use?

[ElJoyo]

weapon: gk lance
head: valkyries mask
body: scorpion harness +1
gloves: AF
feet: AF
legs: AF
neck: peacock charm
rings: 2*sniper's ring+1
earrings: assaulter earring and spike earring
belt: life belt
back: the ex bastokan(2 str 2 dex) or sandorian(2 str 2 mnd) mantle you can only buy with CPs when your rank 6

thats the best EQ i can think of atm ;P
the mantle is not really needed because you can get amemit mantle at 61 anyways ^^

I think for gloves the better idea would be hold onto your battle gloves. +3 acc, and you lose 3 dex and some defense. Worst comes to worst, just macro to chance into your AF gloves if you get aggro for the defense, but besides that, battle gloves are a cheap +1-2 acc over any other glove option at 60..

Have fun getting a scorpion harness :sweat:
No way you can get one with a level 60 char..

Reminds me of iRO, the Novices moving around in place and saying they are dancing, asking for zeny.

Of course can I get a Scorp harness. Sure it will take some time but I've stopped leveling for a while to get best equip possible.

FFXI needs more people with an attitude like yours. I'm tired of seeing people with outdated equipment.

For most gear, that's a true statement, but I think it's a gross understatement when Scorpion Harness is concerned.

Though I understand that the price is somewhat reasonable on some servers. If that's true on yours, ignore what I say. But it goes for 6-8 million on mine, which I don't consider reasonable.

Let's say you can farm 20K gil per hour. That's 5 hours of nonstop farming to make 100K. Let's add 1 hour to that for travel times, respawn times, and other miscellaneous delays. So 6 hours nonstop farming for 100K gil.

Let's say you can devote 6 hours daily to do that. To make 1 million gil would require 10 days.

To make the 6 million will take you 60 days, or two months, where you devote 6 hours every single day to nonstop farming.

Seeing how 6 hours is at or near the upper limit of how many hours most people play each day, that is a HELLUVA lot of time required to get Scorpion Harness.
