I wonder whats wrong with you. No flaming or anything, star necklace is useless comparing it to a torque.

Wind Torque should be a must.
Think about it. You use Wind insruments HOW much for than String?
You can whore out CHR anytime, as well as MP no problem.

Wind skill is useful not just for Minuets (Which you CAN merit), good for your Elegy~ing, Lullaby~ing, etc. Depending on what instrument of choice.

I bought mine for 1mil. Don't be cheap and only recongize one measly difference of which you didnt approve of. Don't get me wrong, not everyone is made of gil.

String torque is useful, obviously for those stringed instruments~ In which are used alot more rarely in most cases, still nice to have and extreamly cheap in comparison.

To each his/her own i suppose. I, personally prefer it. Comparing it to my other gears i use and the tons of merits i have it works in my favour. :)

As an owner of both wind/string torque and other BRD necklaces allow me to chip in my 2 cents for those of you that can't decide what to equip:


After much farming and AH camping, I finally bought 1 string torque and 1 wind torque. I carefully macro'd each of them into my gear setups so that they would automaticlly switch out when I played the matching instrument...

the result: near nothing.

For example, at Level 75 my Valor Minuet IV increased by 1 point with wind torque.... Let me repeat that for you: 1 friggin point. As in Attack 255 -> 256.

Is that worth 1-2 Million? I don't think so. You may think differently. 99.9% of the time you will see me with Star Necklace equipped. I promptly sold wind / string torques at AH and I enjoy my 3 CHR and 15 MP.

It's up to 1.4 mil on Kujata, better get yours while you can. I just bought the String Torque for 100K, but this one is out of reach almost already.

When I get BRD to 65 Im going to buy this and a String Torque and carry them both around with me at the same time..... those 2 will be my end-game Neck Armor. Only Bad thing it doesnt add CHR so if you want that go with the Star Necklace or Torque +1. Just my 2 cents.

CHR helps land debuffs. Skill helps land debuffs. Skill > CHR. Therefore, carring a CHR necklace and the Wind Torque is a waste of space.

No.

Endgame HNMing and Sky: CHR > Skill.

1-74 level grind: Skill > CHR.
