Acc / Att / Eva

[bleegh]

I know that this subject has been touched on in previous topics, but since I could use a more focused discussion, here it is:

What stats do you put priority on, and which do you sacrifice? I know that some of it is situational, like how well you're hitting or evading at a certain time, but I was just wondering what seemed to work for you, and a general equipment outline for 40+

Equips that I wanted opinions on:

Rings - Snipers, Str Rings
Hands - Kote, Fed Tekko
Neck piece - spike, evasion torque, spectacles (or peacock >_>)
Body - Jujitsu Gi, i assume until AF?
Legs - Jujitsu Sitabaki until AF?
Earrings - Dodge >> ?
Head - Emp pin >> ?
Feet - Leaping, Fed Kyahan, Fumas
Belt - Survival, Life

And I suppose I'd be most interested in the equipment setup for an exp party setup minus the hate control from a thf...

Evasion and Accuracy are most important. Concentrate on those areas. Don't forget enmity either. I think that it's very important for a ninja tank.

Re: Acc / Att / Eva

Rings - Snipers, Str Rings
- I'm currently using +2 AGI rings, but am strongly considering archers or snipers. I static with a BRD and even with his ACC+ song I go on my whiff fests from time to time which makes holding hate (esp. at the start) rather difficult.


Hands - Kote, Fed Tekko
- I've had kote's since lvl 34 and love them..even if the damage it adds at times feel's minimal any extra helps to hold hate.

Neck piece - spike, evasion torque, spectacles (or peacock >_>)
- Currently using spirit torque

Body - Jujitsu Gi, i assume until AF?
- Currently using Jujitsu Gi, probably will for awhile..

Legs - Jujitsu Sitabaki until AF?
- Currently using Royal Squires none of the Sitabaki's have impressed me as of yet.

Earrings - Dodge >> ?
- Currently using Dodge, don't forsee me using anything else in the near future.

Head - Emp pin >> ?
- I'm using emp. pin right now, to me that +10 evasion is priceless

Feet - Leaping, Fed Kyahan, Fumas
- Using Fumas atm, they seem to shorten spell timers by just a little bit.

Belt - Survival, Life
- Both, depending on how much the mob is hitting me or how much I'm missing the mob it's best to switch them around as the situation dictates.

Think he's aware of that, he wanted more detail of why to pick one of the gears over another. Just about all the gear he listed focuses around Evasion and Accuracy. His last comment also suggests he understands the need for possibly enmity. He wanted more detail about gear specifically.

As far as I can say the Emp. Hairpin seems to be a very big thing for NINs. Like you'll notice with the previous person most his gear is focused hugely on AGI and evasion. The Drone Earrings are the best I can recall that have the highest AGI on them.

Having Utsusumei with extreemly high AGI and Evasion should make getting hit extreemly unlikely. When I go NIN I tend to use those two gears I can't comment on much else since I really don't focus on raising NIN a lot.
