    Belt Choice at 30

    Alright well I'm leveling as thf/nin right now so that I can use sword in my main hand and dagger in my off hand to keep it up to skill for Viper Bite. Now at 30 I know that Mercenary Captain's Belt is a popular choice, but I was wondering if it would be better to use the sword skill +5 belt until I hit 33 where I am planning to switch to thf/war.

    oh and this is my gear set up as of now if it would change anything:

    any other gear tips (like necklace, earrings, daggers to use at 33) would be great

    Nice gear . Anyways, at LV30 I got the Merc. Cpt. Belt, and I'm planning on switching over to THF/NIN as soon as I get NIN leveled. I figured the extra Sneak/Trick damage is nice, if you want you could probably switch into the Swordbelt for gaining TP or something.

    What I'm planning for my gear at 33:
    Weapon(main): Federation Knife(two)
    Ranged: Long Boomerang(LV33)
    Head: Emp. Hairpin
    Neck: Spike Necklace
    Body: Mrc. Cpt. Doublet(LV30)
    Hands: Magna Gauntlets
    Waist: Mrc.Cpt. Belt
    Legs: Magna M Chausses(LV31)
    Feet: Winged Boots
    Back: Nomad's Mantle+1
    Ear1: Genin Earring(LV30)
    Ear2: Beetle Earring + 1
    Ring1: Balance Ring
    Ring2: Balance Ring

    At 34 I was going to switch the daggers for Federation Kukris. As for necklace, I would keep the Spike Necklace for a while, and earrings probably keep the beetle until Drones at LV35. Then of course at 36 you can get Deft rings. Anyways, hope I helped. Good luck.

      There's a BCNM 30 belt that enhances dual wield, but it costs quite a lot on Carbuncle. That's also a good choice.
      Carbuncle Server:
      Ichnob-35 Warrior, 36 Thief, 36 Paladin, 42 Dark Knight, 10 Ranger, 18 Monk (San d'Oria rank 5) //now I have to farm/save up for more stuff
      Hayama-18 Monk, 8 Warrior (Bastok rank 2)

        The user above is speaking of sarashi belt, I tried it when I was at 60+ and it wasnt worth it, but at your level it may be the best choice.

        At level 35 you will want to grab some Drone earrings +3 agi each. But KEEP your beetle+1 and make an equip change macro, when your TPing keep the atk+ and then switch to AGI @ the Fuidama/Viper Bite.

        At 36 nab some deft rings, and if you have the cash archer rings, then upgrade from archers to snipers @ 40, use the same technique as earrings, switching between tp gain and ws.

        This is optimal, a thf really doesnt actually NEED ACC+ gear until 65+ natural dex should cut it.
