(here is my attempt to show you why)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attack vs STR<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>STR &gt; Attack now with the new update as 1 STR adds 1 Attack.\u00a0 It&#8217;s much easier to choose gear now.\u00a0 More on this in future &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Store TP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First of all to explain Store TP for those who do not know what it.\u00a0 TP rounded down to the nearest tenth; calculated as shown in <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.ffxiclopedia.org\/wiki\/TP\" target=\"_blank\">wiki<\/a> .\u00a0 1 Store TP gives 1% more of the original TP, which is often mistaken to give 0.1 more TP.\u00a0 An example would be +10 Store TP would make an original\u00a0 12 TP return and give you 12*1.10 = 13.2\u00a0 .<\/p>\n<p>Most common Great Katana are all 450 Delay which returns 11.5 TP.\u00a0 A lvl 75 Samurai will have 25 Store TP which will return 11.5 * 1.25 =\u00a0 14.375 ~ 14.3 TP return naturally.\u00a0 The most effective way for us to gain 100TP is 6 hits which doesn&#8217;t stress our gear with too much Store TP equipment.\u00a0 With 5\/5 Store TP merits which gives +10 Store TP, Rajas Ring, Brutal Earring which we will have 24\/7 we will need 5 more Store TP in gear to have 6-hit setup.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not that complicated, with the above gear and merit the usual gear left would be Hachiman Kote \/+1, Hachiman Sune \/+1 or Usukane Sune-ate.\u00a0 The feet and hands slot is usually used haste build in your TP setup so Usukane Sune-ate will be best suited out of all these setup since it fulfills both haste and store TP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Haste<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some people may think 2 handed don&#8217;t need haste and it won&#8217;t help, but they are absolutely wrong.\u00a0 Currently I have 21% in gear with hasso without anyone casting haste on me I will be swinging my 450 delay Great Katana at the delay of 310.<\/p>\n<p>We have to understand that haste is best stacked.\u00a0 They give increasing returns.\u00a0 A simple example is player A has 0% haste, player B has 20% haste.\u00a0 Player A will be hitting 20% faster than Player B; meaning every 10 swings player A makes player B only made 8 swings.\u00a0 A will do 1.25 more swings than B.<\/p>\n<p>Now lets say they both increased their haste gear buy 20%; Player A will be hitting 20% faster than Player B again but now every 4 swings from player A player B will only have made 3 swings.\u00a0 A will do 1.33 more swings than B.<\/p>\n<p>From this logic you can easily see that if we go haste we should go all out.<\/p>\n<p>Since Samurai damage comes from our WS damage and the number of WS they deal out, we can see 6-hit setup with as much haste as we can equip will bring us the most WS.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Accuracy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most monsters besides high level monsters is what we usually hit and require to spam WS like limbus, dynamis,\u00a0 and merit PT.\u00a0 I would recommend an accuracy of about 400 for most of these situations without madrigal.<\/p>\n<p>Accuracy from skill information can be found <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.ffxiclopedia.org\/wiki\/Accuracy\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.\u00a0 My Samurai\/Warrior has 297 skill and70+26 DEX which returns me 200 + (97*0.92) + 96 = 385 accuracy.\u00a0 I wear +35 Accuracy of gear which brings me to 420 Accuracy.\u00a0 Thanks to this last update 1 DEX gives 1 Accuracy, I now hit almost anything at 95% capped hit rate.\u00a0 My accuracy caps me just about anything I merit on, but I still need to carry more for stuff like Byakko, Wyrm KS99 etc with high evasion.<\/p>\n<p>A general rule would be 1 accuracy increases 0.5% hit rate.\u00a0 More information on how to calculate hit rate % from your accuracy with monster&#8217;s level and evasion <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.ffxiclopedia.org\/wiki\/Hit_Rate\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>End-Game Gearing I will go through the basics and logic of what type of gear to choose.
