So i just got 3/3 skadi hands today and will have the actual bazubands tomorrow. My rng just hit 70 not long ago so looking at endgame gear now. Basically, trying to figure out what to do about CFG/Seiru/Skadi hands. The only one i actually own is skadi though I am able to obtain both kote/CFG as i do sky but i dont want to pick up -inv gear i wont ever use, or is VERY situational as my inv is getting rather tight. In other words, if one is better "most" of the time and the other being 2% better 3% of the time then i cant afford the -inv. While i like rng a lot, i wont be dote-ing on it like my thf and drg with tons of specialized/situational gear/sets.

Obviously Skadi with str/agi/ratk are good for the POWA, and both kote/CFG are heavily acc oriented for the simple acc vs attack dichotomy (I will also be primarily an Obow/Hellfire rng as i have marks merits from thf) but do you really need both CFG/Kote? If one, then which for a marks rng with the knowlege that i have skadi as well.

Edit: Ive been looking in the monster thread on this page, but as its from like 06, skadi isnt even listed. I know its a ded horse topic, so a simple quick answer would more than suffice.

I would say use skadi hands if the rest of your gear can support them. If you find that you're missing quite a bit on tougher stuff then its definitely good to have Skote or CFG/BFG for that extra ranged accuracy without gimping your WS damage.

So for a "quick" answer...at least get S kote for tough to hit stuff and use skadi for everything else.

I have 4 Marks merits from Thf so not ideal, but not bad. Obviously ill be using skadi when Racc isnt a problem. The question is, which would be a better combo: Skadi+Seiru or Skadi+CFG, or do i REALLY need all 3 as a Marks rng. On WS it is probably close enough to a wash between Sieru and CFG for me to not really care much for slug with 7.5 acc+agi vs 10ratk on slug. But on TP, its a little more complex with 7.5acc vs 10ratk (when not using skadi for powa! of course).

Currently leaning with Seiru+Skadi for a simple: Easy mob=skadi. Evasive=Sieru and not worry so much about a hybrid power/acc piece like CFG.
