Rng Af+1

[Caspian]

I've been comparing stats b/w af and af+1. The only major addition to any of it seem to be extra +agi and the socks getting +dex. EXCEPT for the bracers+1 with the oh so sweet sounding "Enhances Barrage Effect" I'm guessing it adds another arrow onto barrage. Atleast that seems to be what it most likely means anyway. Besides this one badass piece of equipment (that will still only be of any real use when using barrage) does any of it seem really any more useful than current endgame setups already? I know the extra arrow will be huge for barrage>WS>barrage (any commonly used ranged weapon now will be able to do it with this equip i believe). Just curious if any of the other stuff jumps out at anyone else at being especially useful.

That seemed to be about what I caught on it. But keep in mind when it says Enhances, it isn't a guarentee of what exactly it's doing. For example two items that Enhance "Cover" Effect, 1 makes it were a PLDs Cover works with magic, 1 makes it were a PLDs Cover gives MP to the damage he takes.

So the Enhance "Rapid Shot" from the normal to the +1 might be different probably better then the normal one provides. Likely get the same out of the other enhancements too. The upside for the bracers is now there is a reason to collect them outside of just having the set to store your AF.

Is the "enhances shadowbind" of any real use? Do you use it endgame? I really only use it right now for the hell of it.

Re: Rng Af+1

Lol, I've actually been bad in that one respect. I blindly accepted someone stating that the "shadowbind" effect sucks without testing myself, so I have not yet collected the Hunter's Gloves. I instead currently have Noct Gloves +1 and Sand Gloves, my prefference so far has been Sand Gloves the +2 DEX/AGI seems to be benefiting me more then just +2 Rng. Acc...

EDIT:

If no one else is going to post we might have to take any more to PM, as it is right now this thread seems kind of dead.

Re: Rng Af+1

I think it couldn't hurt to swap out your original hand gear for the Hunter's Gloves when Shadowbinding. I know in HNM Shadowbind is a godsend, and if you can increase its duration, even by just a second, it'd be worth it to carry those gloves on you.
