    Re: Lvl 50 Blu equipment

    Here's the thing: If all you do is solo then you kinda have to mention that. It's implied that any advice you're asking for is for EXP parties unless stated otherwise.

    Literally all of the advice you got - and the disagreements that stemmed from them - was posted under the assumption that this was for party play. A large part of what has been posted was in the wrong context and needs to be re-evaluated. 6-man parties and soloing are two entirely different activities with different considerations. E.g. The assertion that -Eva doesn't matter is true in EXP, false when solo. The assertion that you must eat food is true in EXP, none of my business if you're solo.

    For solo I would still recommend the whole Crow set except for the head and hands simply because the DD boosts you can get out of other slots are pretty sad right now compared to the survivability boost of the extra Evasion. On the other hand, your aversion to Battle Gloves is downright baffling, since they have +Evasion in addition to the +Accuracy. I would also recommend Bat Cape for the Evasion since Red Cape isn't doing much for you.

    I would still recommend Marinara Pizza simply because its stats are fantastic and you've no need for Defense food, and soloing is more profitable than EXP anyways. That should just about solve all your Accuracy problems and still give you a fat Attack boost to boot. But if you choose not to, it's your EXP that drops, not mine. If you chose to use the pizza and you're parsing at 95% hit rate, dropping Life Belt for Survival Belt for even more Evasion is another option, albeit an expensive one.

    The comment about Spike Necklace still stands. It's still superior, and the -6 MND can be bypassed easily with some simple gear swapping. However, the suggestion of getting +Attack earrings needs to be retracted, since those come with -Evasion. On the contrary, I would suggest Dodge Earrings if they're within your budget.

      Let me qualify what has been said now that you have mentioned that you mostly solo: if you party, you're going to need to eat food. In a party, food is much more impacting upon your performance than Woodman rings are (but wear them anyway).

      And now that the case of the OP comment has been solved, my work here is done.

        Thank you. And I'm sorry for not being more clear about being a solo Blu. I thought it would be clear from my gear or other things I said. I also wanted this not just to help me, but other Blus that might be worried about what to do now that they hit 50.

        See? Now we're all communicating ^^.

          Okay, changed Crimson Blade out for another CCS+2. Also traded out my Red Cape +1 for Bat Cape. I'm going to carry my Battle Gloves (yuck) around to try them out.
