DRG 75 gear other than Endgame

[odjnlinus]

Ok so due to my current work schedule, I cannot do anything pertaining to Endgame, I tried Dynamis but because I work night-shift the LS leader really did not approve of me only making 2 runs (if that) every other week, which is acceptable on my part. I can rarely do Nyzul Isle runs because I'm not that proficient on it yet to start my own runs, not to mention I'm always picked last if there is a SAM seeking a run also. For the static Nyzul Isle LS that do runs all the time, I tried to get into several of those but with their times and dates, they always seem to correspond with my work days so that's a no no too.

In all I'm looking for advice from all you veterans of the game (playing since it came out) on acceptable gear to use that would match my skill level of playing as DRG. My current gear set up (which is my penta thrust setup because I don't have Drakesbane yet) is the following:

Mezraq - Weapon
Pole Grip - offhand
Angon/Tiphia Sting - Ammo
Walkure Mask - head
Chivalrous Chain (upgrading to Peacock Charm soon) - Neck
Assault Earring, Coral Earring - Ear
Woodsman Ring x2 - Ring
Barone Corazza - Body
Tarasque Mitts +1 - Hands
Forager's Mantle - Back
Life Belt - waist
Barone Cosciales - legs
Marine M Boots - feet

I also have STR gear setup, ACC gear setup (need help on haste gear), and a mage setup I use for soloing but those I can work with well except the haste gear part.

I'm pretty badass as playing DRG (only 75 for about 7 months) yeah I'm bragging but that's beside the point, just looking for gear that can somewhat match (not really match but is acceptable) Endgame gear since my time schedule does not permit to make any runs.

thanx

Hmm.

Walkure Mask > Walahra Turban (5%)
Body > Assault Jerkin
Hands > Dusk Gloves (3%)
Neck is fine
Feet > Dusk Feet (2%)
Life Belt > Swift Belt (4%)

The above gives you an overall haste rating of 14% which is pretty acceptable/normal. I haven't seen your STR setup but I'll throw out the basics below:

Then you want to purchase the following:
Warwolf Belt
Wyvern Helm
Some form of STR ring (2x Ruby Ring)

All should be quite cheap.

If you do Sky, you can aim for Neptunal Feet, Hands and Body.

As for gear setups (i.e. Acc as mentioned), depends on what you're doing really.

Yeah I just got the Walahra Turban working on trying to start a run for Assault Jerkin, got the gil to buy the dusk pieces so I'll probably be getting around to getting those when my days off come. I have to look up the run for Swift Belt for now, but in the coming days I have a lot of work to do to improve my skills as a Dragoon, which isn't very far off, for now it's just coming about the right equipment and stuff.


Thanks for the Tip and I'll let you know how it turns out, post a youtube video or something.
