Just got this belt last night. Thank you very much to my LS YattaCo. You guys are a great and fun group of people. The belt is very nice and I love it. I don't have a Swift Belt so this made me very happy to say the least.
I'm guessing I'll hang on to my Speed Belt even if I get this. Speed Belt will own it in merit PTs for sure, but this piece would be good for dynamis tanking. In dynamis too much gear changing can be fatal, and probably cause a fair amount of lag.
If I decide to sell my belt to fund other things, atleast I'll have this baby to comfort myself.
Actually, NIN gets a lot of belts that use the Sarashi model, and considering MNK and NIN are both far-eastern in origin, it doens't seem all that strange to me.
what he means is its a WHTE belt, in all eastern martial arts white is the color of tranquility signifying a beginner, basically harmless. black is the color of death such as the black belt. this sarashi in reality should have been red or black to symbolize power or death as ninjas are most commonly known for black robes and the game's koga armor is red. white is just not practical for this item. but its not like this game is from japan or they would know what theyre doing or anything like that right?
This > speed. Why? would you trade hast+2% for eva+4 def and magAcc, pretty sure I would... Much better then swift belt. Only thing better is AV's sash.
Also, pretty sure this drops in Dyn-Qufim, never been to dyn but thats what i heard.
1 of the best belts for nin so far, next to swift belt & speed belt. but with the crappy camping that KA has & the low drop rate for swift it will still be a pain to get any of them.
