Relic or empy?Follow

It all comes down to honestly which do you really have more time for. Emp you can do in a week or less, relic probably in a couple months. Just remember emp u will get caught up at 85 or 90 depending on your friends, and relic you can get to 95 pretty easily with the trials. You are going to spam resolution anyways.

Torcleaver is sh*t.

Quietus is sh*t.

ODD is vastly overrated when you have a 30:70 split.

DRK can pass up both of their Empys and be far better off. Seriously. Don't bother.

Ragnarok's aftermath is only 5% crit rate, even with lv99, so there's almost no point in using Scourge, you just spam Resolution. Even then you become just a boring meathead DD.

Apoc with both Catastrophe and Entropy gives you crazy sustain of both HP and MP. With the Haste aftermath you can wear a ton of -PDT and solo almost any 75 content.

I agree with Apoc and the 2-4x great sword. As most people said even if you have a nice great sword, you won't use the weaponskill. Resolution spamming is godly. No one has time to standing by on a VW or a NM, while ou build tp with a long delay weapon.

The 4x great sword can be made in a week. Level sync and do many trials outside windy.

The time you save making the 4x you an get your +2 hands from dyna, and quest the ToM. This will add ten seconds to blood weapon. Doing that on a multi hit weapon will own.



I do use apoc when soloing. I use the 4x great sword in exp or on VW or Legion zerg.

Rae yeah your right, OAT is less work, and Apoc allows for much more solo ability. Part of why I chose rag is that I have WAR also. But based on the OP's question, Rag is more powerful then Calad, but a heck of a lot more gil/time to do

In that hands of a competent Drk, an Apocalypse is still an amazing weapon. Sure it may fall a bit short in terms of weaponskill damage, but the damage from the TP phase, especially in longer fights, will make up for it. Yes, I can't argue with the fact that Resolution is an amazing weaponskill, but well geared Apocalypse Drks are far from gimp.

Thanks for recapping the thread.

It'd only be a 100tp Scourge opening, so only 30 seconds or whatever of +5% crit rate, the skillchain could be 'stepped on' by someone else's WS, and even if they did chain (not positive myself) the Light damage could be resisted not to mention we don't have stuff like DNC's Skillchain Bonus.

Apoc is that car you wanted to buy but everyone warns you is not the fastest/most comfortable/and you need to really get to know it to keep it running well. An Apoc is a certified pre-owned Porche 911.

Rag is that car that you will have fun with, can't possibly let you down thanks to reso and any @#%^ing idiot could use. Rag is the Nissan GTR with a warranty.

Fulgurante is the car that takes so much less effort than the other two and you will get miles and miles of use out of on a dime. Fulgurante is a 96 Honda Civic that an old woman drove, in blue.

Calda is that strange car that looks fast and probably is but no one really gives two sh*ts because it got a bad rap. But rest assured, it needs a hell of a driver to be the Porche or Nissan. Calda, is a Panoz or Lotus...whatever.

Redemtion is a retard trap, so a first generation Fiskar.

Liberator is the Dukes of Hazard General Lee or the Bat Mobile. It's @#%^ing cool as sh*t but you can't have one so stop asking.

Now get drunk enough so that this makes sense and figure out what you wanna be behind the wheel of.
