GMS End Game Gear Post 5th Job

I made this thread on Reddit talking about what I think might be end game gear once 5th job is released and people are able to clear Lucid

What are your guy's thoughts on the gear? Will you switch to this asap? What do you think would be the highest percent of stat you will be able to obtain on the 200 equips?

Well, for DAs at least, going CRA hat over Arcane would be preferable. The all stats does nothing, so it's 5 atk and 5 ied vs 10% maxHP. Probably a good thing since Arcane gear won't be easy to come by.

I have been thinking of another set but it involves Tyrants to be transposed.
4 set of SW: Cape/Boot/Glove/Hat
2 piece of CRA:
Hat/Bot
2 Arcane:
Shoulder/Weapon

Nexon will just add the new gear in Marvel or Philo anyways. No need for this 24 kill+. It's sad but that's how it will be most likely.

@star909 @darksword I agree with you guys that its going to be hard since we don't have the 25 star and flames and that probably would be the biggest factor, but we do have SW and Gollux stuff where kms does not have that so our end games gear currently is a little different than theirs.

@darksword: And how Bonus Potential is actually a paywall because buying NX is the only way to get it lol

@star909: Exactly what you said, I was referring to the expiration date controversy. My point was that Nexon America is making the decisions with huge amounts of ignorance, or without taking the words of other players. They're constantly making decisions with the assumption of making it better for the player, but the end result turns out for the worse.

Whoops on my part for MEE, forgot those were actually P2W.

@darksword: I know about haunted house and kishin but tf did they do to easter egg buffs this time? Last time i chceked they put a expiration date and then went back and removed it. Unless you mean making them untradable.

Also MEE's are a bad idea, they're not a free2play options they're disasters.

@musaab1: No, Nexon America is specifically against free-to-play when you compile all the recent actions they have done to the game. Haunted House, Easter Egg Buffs, Kishin. There are more examples way back such as hyping up Destroyed New Leaf City just so they can slip in Nebulites.

They were open about denying MEEs and Additional Options before said updates that were suppose to introduce them. Many players have pushed for the release or ways of easier upgrading but no action has been taken. That should speak for itself.

@darksword: Do you think they will add MEES, Flames, 25 star force etc? To me, it's just another case of cra when it was released.

IMO... I guess that these level 200 equips will come with e new and better potential tier, like we can get 15%~18% stat per line on legendary, so maybe it will be worth.

@musaab1: Someone said it was pretty much impossible to beat Lucid, Hard Damien, and Hard Lotus without a party with near-perfect gear as the minimum when we don't have MEEs, Flames of Rebirth/Additional Options, and 25 Star Force Cap.

Considering it's going to take forever to get these equips, I think people will try to switch to them but it probably wouldn't even be worth switching. You need pretty godly potentials and control to kill Lucid once, imagine 24 times, 20 times, etc,for a single piece of gear . LOL, thanks nexon for greater accessibility.
