Re: Blink Tank Equipment/Thoughts Levels 1-30
Not sure if you're aware of this, but SE nerfed Navarin's Eva+ bonus (not sure if it was just reduced as a flat pt bonus or removed entirely but it's definitely not a %+ anymore) So you might want to update your listing. Mithkabobs also got nerfed (all of these caps have now been put into place for most foods) You could put Dhalmel Stew or Pies in place of Meat Miths and Pumpkin instead of Navarin.
Also, when leveling NIN, I find it's a waste of time and money to get eva+ gear up to 20s. Focus on VIT+ and Def+ gear (basically, anything a PLD would wear and if a NIN can equip) Too bad NIN can't equip Battle Gloves since the eva+ and acc+ would be very helpful (But then again, those gloves would be selling for 100s of Ks)
I think once you get your debuffs, like Hojo and Kurayami, you can tank effectively. But it's actually at 30, when you get Jubaku, does it get a lot easier to solo blink tank until 37, when you get Utsu: Ni.
If you're in a static, I would agree with going all out and not having gils stand between you and being uber. But if it's going to be a lot of pickup parties with tons of idiots, then you're better off not blowing 100s of Ks for those kinds of situations ... :sweat:
Oh and one note on the Kote. I was in a party with my THF and a NIN (level 34, one level lower than me) was main tanking. He had Kote on. First off, his dmg wasn't impressive on those Worker Crawlers. Secondly, -eva hurts, regardless of how much other +eva you have. Sadly enough, at those levels, anything -eva will come back to bite you in the ass. It did to the NIN who died three times in half an hour and on the 3rd death, just Mijin Gakure, HP'd and disbanded. LOL
