Your Thief's Latest and Greatest Accomplishment!Follow

The new year has been going pretty well so far.

This week:

Neptunal Abjuration: Hands
Hecatomb Mittens +1

Back in 2004, I would not even IMAGINE owning one.

Denali Jacket O :D

- Finally got my hecahands. Had the abjuration for a while just never got around to buying the cursed gloves.

Maat mashed (melee) 1/17/09
Rapparee Harness 1/24/09
O Hat 1/24/09
Bastok rank 6 1/24/09 (1/24 was a good day for me)
Accepted to Absolution, great EG ls

Movin on up!

Got my lvl 35 body piece for Skadi. now i need to find 12 ingots. ive had the gil saved up for a very very very long time.

After a good 9 months of heads, legs and "If 2 hands and/or feet drop, I get one" I come back to my limbus shell and our first Omega run we get hands/feet!

Homam Gambieras GET!

Also: lolAssassin's Vest GET

I still have the mats for Rogue's Vest +1, but lack the ABCs. Man, if I got that this sunday my thf would have just been raped with awesomeness this week.

Now I don't have to worry about getting Cobra/Denali as a decent foot piece. I can focus on other things weeeeee~!

Well I haven't posted anything fun in this thread for a while so here goes. I decided to upgrade my scorpion harness +1 this past Sunday and grabbed an Antares Harness from the auction house. It may not be skadi, but the accuracy is the same as scorpion harness +1 and it's better for weaponskill than both DH +1 and HH +1, and to boot the 8 dexterity in melee puts me dangerously close to being capable of pulling off that melee critical build I spoke of. I now have 107 dex in normal melee, so come skadi's visor we could see some serious fun ^^. And the best part is that when I get all my rare/ex parts for skadi's cuirie I can resell the antares harness and have 60% of the money for the imperial wootz ingots immediately, so it should be an instant upgrade come that point in time. Cool!!

EDIT: Another cool thing is my weaponskill strength total with my other equipment

62 str (racial) + 5 (meat), + 12 (hecatomb cap +1) + 8 (heca gloves +1) + 5 (rajas) + 4 (cuchulain's mantle) + 7 (hecatomb leggings +1)

62 + 5 + 12 + 8 + 5 + 4 + 7 == 103 strength in dancing edge

This is with cuchulain's belt 6 dex 10 attack equipped as well!! A perfect fSTR + 10 at greater colibri. I'd almost swear S-E created this thing just for me O.O.

Isn't the weapon rank of most endgame daggers, baring P.harpe and Mandau, 3, meaning fstr cap is 11, not 10? or are you just going for 10 just cause. 5 str merits would cap you out ofc, but didnt see them listed as part of your str.

New Toy, NiN's Last Major Drop ;; Thanks Guys.

I thought that Mighty Knife, P. Harpe, and Batardeau/Mandau all had an fSTR cap of 12. Should be right, fSTR cap is 8+WD/9 which should put any weapon with a base damage of 36 or higher at fSTR 12 for cap.

Edit: I remember reading somewhere that fSTR for the day latent weapons was taken from the latent damage and not the base damage.

Yeah sorry about that, forgot that P-Harpe/Bart/Mandau were t4. XD

Like Meldi said, the fSTR for weapons like blau dolch is actually calculated using their non-latent damage. That means blau uses it's 26D when doing the fSTR formula.

It could go either way with mighty, I don't know enough about it to decide. ;x

Assassin's Poulainnes get.

I would have been more happy if I hadn't got Homam Gambieras recently as I would have used them xD

That sid I remember a post considering them for DE with the CHR and Triple Attack but I can't remember how they came out.

Whatever, 4th job leveled, but first to get 4/5 AF! I'm 3'5 on the others >.< Need 1 Beaucedine, 2 Jeuno and all 4 Xarcabard.

Damn you xarcabard, give me my Armlets and Armet!

After 14 cursed leggings synths (3 breaks) and a total of 26 including all Tier1 HQ attempts...

Cursed Leggings -1

Final cost 3 million, a saving of 500k :/

Sushi in merits or low level like campaign or assault, Hecatomb or Assassin's yeah. Madrigal in merit, I would still say it would be close, because you still probably wont quite be capped accuracy. But yeah, any situation where accuracy is capped, Homam would be an incredibly stupid choice.

Congratulations Mirax!

Rich cat ><;;

Feint Lv3 now.

So far: 2 trick, 1 assassin's charge, 3 feint.. I'm only doing feint first because THF is mostly used for Nyzul, where Feint is really useful for the harder monsters there <_<

Finally got up the ABCs and got myself a Rogue's Vest +1. Joyous day.

Need gil.

I just got my Trotter Boots the other morning, actually. 1/4 on them. It's very easy to trio Simmy with another THF/NIN and a healer, which surprised me after reading all of the comments on the wiki.

Almost have enough gil saved up for my PCC now, too. :)

{Blau Dolch} {Mine} :D

Got Homam Gambieras!!!! not.... lost lot.

But I consider being able to lot an accomplishment. :)

Broke 1000 for the first time on Kirin with a SA Shark Bite.

Also did a 550 dmg SATA hide same Kirin.

I was happy.

Also Freyr's Trousers GET, frogs Friday but I'm behind my Salvage LS's main thf. I just want 25 feet to pair with my 35 but we never do it. >.>

Armlets and Shadow mantle tonight...Armlets put me @ 5/5.

Yeah, I can't stand to look at myself in harnesses as Hume M....It's just unsightly. I use Jambiya/Sirocco cause I'm too cheap to buy a Blau for a job I'm not on very much.
