equipment for a pathetic FO

Replace Guard Wave ASAP, it sucks.

Hunt weapons with hit, Angry Fist or Rainbow Baton, for example.

Anthing besides the loathable Sato 5/145/50/0 or 13/0/0/187

Do any of you think i could actually survive on this mag i have now, the 14/16/30/87 one thats only 151 and i can change the stats, because i really dont know who to listen to and why! i already started the sato for meleeing, and its already lvl 20 kalki. i'm really not sure what i want to do concerning melee/casting, but the casting sure seems to be a lot stronger. i don't want to be all casting though, which is why i want a better weapon for melee to equpi while casting. i'm going to raise this melee sato, but it may work out better for me to have just one mag that can help me with everything. so, i decided i want to do both sato and semi-balanced mag. what should i put on the current mag, dex, def, or power? this i guess will be the more casting oriented mag.
oh and p.s.--- don't you go dissing the RAmars! they are cool in their own special little way!!!!

Yes... partially... when you are more like level 170... Bringing DEX to about 46-50 and then using POW on the rest could make it a decent mixed mag for melee and casting... decent... if you used the right materials, that is.

Firstly! In regard to materials: DO NOT USE ANY MORE! Raise your Fomar to a level ending in 5 or 0, then go to the following site.
http://www.pso-world.com/sections.php?op...artid=1179
Unequip all your gear, subtract the ATP, DFP, MST, EVP, and LCK that they have listed there from your ATP, DFP, MST, EVP, and LCK, then divide each by two. That will give the amount of materials you have used. The ATA stat they show there may be off by 1, but that is only because the way they round it - the others are all accurate.

Then post what your materials used are! That is way more important than equipment.

ok i'll just go for making a better mag with equal stats, and maybe i'll switch between the two. i don't think that will be necessary though. the new sato will help me survive if it is more balanced, right? or do i really have to have more than 1 mag to switch between.
oh and i'll do that thing with the subtracting and dividing for materials thingiemabob.

in fairness, switching between 2 isnt that bad- you just have the melee on all the time, then switch if you see a load of nasty enemies/a boss.

[Kitsadoodles]

oki doki then....i actually think thats pretty good- but i would like to cast a little without having to switch mags, so couldn't i just make a pretty balanced mag with less mst rather than make an all melee mag?

[jarl]

the casting will be affected by having a mag with no mind and trying to cast, but not nearly as much as having a mag with mind and trying to melee!! think about it, you'll do about 500 with a tech lets say, with no mag (perhaps thats -300 MST) you'll be doing 100-200 less, but if you loose 20 ATA to give yourself a slightly better casting damage then you'll REALLY hurt (you won't be able to hit!). 2 mags is pretty much the only way to go, and s/d/j/z (main spells a melee FO uses) arent affected by MST much, pretty much all by level. damage with attacking spells and resta heal is the only thing you need to worry about which is related to MST, besides a high level resta will be pretty much all you ever need.

[Kitsadoodles]

ok that sounds good to me! i'm gonna continue that sato to be pow/dex/ and a little def oriented (just so i don't die trying to hit somebody). i still don't know what kind of weapon i should get, though i still really want to go for that agito for him. even if its not the best, its really cool, and the drop rate/atp requirement are really good too.

[jarl]

a really good weapon for a FOmar is anything with ridiculous hit %. 20 doesnt cut it, but if you've got something with 35+ then for gods sake, use it! it doesnt matter if its rare or not, but you need something you can reliably hit with.
