Talk:Scryes Imperial Blue Mage Equipment Guide

W.W. Anelace over. Msk.Cmd. Falchion? Really? Let's look at these: W.W. Anelace DMG:34 Delay:226 Atk+14 DPS:9.03 TP/hit:6.1% M.C.Falchion DMG:36 Delay:236 Atk+6 Acc+3 DPS:9.15 TP/hit:6.3%

Point the first: M.C.Falchion wins for raw DPS. Point the second: M.C.Falchion has Acc+3 which increases the accuracy of all physical blue magic as well as melee attacks. Point the third: You only lose Atk+8 in taking the Falchion, which has no effect on your blue magic damage. Point the fourth: If you're in a DD position, chances are a lot more of your total DPS is from blue magic than from your sword, so the Acc+ matters a lot more than the Atk+.

In the Anelace's defense, it is much cheaper from the AH than the Falchion... but "it's cheaper" is a poor defense when the Falchion isn't entirely unaffordable (it's cheaper than a Hauberk). AND you can buy a Falchion even if you're not from Bastok, when your nation is in first and Bastok is in second, for 32,000 Conquest Points. You cannot buy a W.W. Anelace with CPs if you are not from Windurst. So... if you have an Anelace, I'd say use it until you can afford a Falchion, but the Falchion is clearly a superior weapon.
