Sweet.water vs Fafnir

Greetings. I recently returned to the game and Ive been wondering which is generally better, the sweet.water set or the trixter set ?
I currently got a hold of both sets wands, but am unsure which one to use my resources on.

Also Sweet.water cannot be fully wrtten because it holds the very much insulting word "t.wat"

Sweet water is actually better if you do it right? I thought Faf/Tyrants were the end-all best in slots[/quote]

I find it stupid to go overboard with SW, considering its possible to cap with good cra/tyrants on most classes

SW is the end-all best in slots because you can transpose your tyrant gear (cape/shoes/glove) onto SW gear and get the SW set effect as well.
but that means that your gear will never be tradeable again (except for the first one)

The best end game is SW, at the VERY end. Fafnir + Tyrant is great, but once you transpose 15 star tyrant over to SW, it's better. Transposing basically takes the added stats on an item, and moves them over to SW. This way you can have a fully enhanced Tyrant equip's stats on your SW, plus keep the set effect of SW. At the moment I use 4 set SW and gain 195 all stats, and 107 attack (if my math is correct) from the set effect alone.

Even with all of that. Go Fafnir instead, it's much cheaper, you can trade it, and if there is a set in the future that has a better effect than SW, at least you can trade off the Fafnir, unlike SW.

i picked SW during its release cus i got gloves and hat drop from voyages i use 4 pieces and its amazing, sometimes i want to switch my shoes for tyrants or my hat for CRA(my stuff badly scrolled with 1 useful line) and hovering on 10b worth items shows about no range improvement.. o.o CRA + tyrants is indeed better but to match SW youre gonna need some godly tyrants making SW cheaper in the end, clean tyrant boots are over 4b~ if u dont plan on tranfering equips SW is best imo

Sweet water works

I suggest fafnir. Although transposing a full fafnir set and all four tyrants to sw is the best option, thereare some downsides to doing this:
-Fafnir set has a top and a bottom vs the sweet water set which has an overall. This means in the fafnir set you can scroll, cube, enhance, and neb two equips instead of one.
-Fafnir set is easier (no transposing required)
-Fafnir set allows the use of dojo gloves
-Fafnir set can be traded after use (incase you want to quit/switch chars)

FAfnir + Tyrants are much better.

sw has a better set bonus but its 69x more expensive than fafnir. plus you cant use tyrant equips if you use a sw set

Got it, thanks for the reply.
I will start with the fafnir wand.

SW is better when scrolled and transposed, but it's much more expensive and if you didn't PSoK them before transposing them, they will be untradable forever and stuck on your character. Because of this, Fafnir is preferred, and a lot cheaper. I would hold off on buying a the hat and pants for the fafnir set for now, since they're glitched and currently don't drop, so prices are really inflated for them.

EDIT: A lot of your questions about SW equips and transposing will probably be answered [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/MapleStory-Guide-Transposition-Guide-464.html]here[/url].

SweetH2O is genius.
Ive heard the term transpose but have no idea what it means, care to explain ?
Gotcha, will take on the Fafnir.

Fafnir is better unless you want to drop billions on clean SweetH2O gear to transpose your perfected equips and even then SweetH2O is completely untradeable once worn so there is no resell value
