Question on end-game gear nebulites, scrolling, etc
Hey, guys.
I just had a question on what is wise to invest in at this point. I currently have clean RA pants and top with decent potential, but I'm still using a 4 set-empress effect since I can't find an RA hat that boosts my range yet. Because of this, my boss damage is quite...lacking... hovering around 60%. However I also do not have a completed Superior Gollux set yet, nor have I mounted any Nebulites.
My range is okay ~ 544k buffed, but now I'm starting to feel the lack of % boss damage.
I recently purchased a 25% boss nebulite, and was wondering if it is worth putting on my sword - or secondary weapon (Nova Truth Essence) right now. My secondary has only epic potential and rare bonus potential (but I imagine I'll be cubing this in the future). My weapon however, is what I want advice on. Currently it is +10. with seven 30% spell traces and three 15% spell traces. It has 318 wep att, unique pot (18% str), and epic bonus pot ( +6% att, +12 att). So a total of 330 wep att on the weapon, with 18% str and 6% attack. I am soon going to give it a soul as well.
Is this weapon worth using a 25% boss neb? Finished Fafnir swords with good potential are hard to come by, and I don't know if I want to invest the money it will take to "perfect" my weapon. Especially considering I would have to buy a psok to get rid of this one, which I scrolled myself.
Is this sword good enough to be considered "end game"? Keep in mind I do want to cube the unique potential and try to get legendary with % boss or % att, but I was more concerned about the fact that there are seven 30%'s on it which could be 15%...does it make a huge difference? Should I scrap the sword and go for perfect? Or should I just spend the money on perfect superior items/tyrant boots instead, which I think will give me more of a range boost than a "perfected" weapon (since I'm still using Solid Gollux...and Empress equips too...but my sword is pretty decent).
Sorry for this wall of text, and thanks a lot.

@MrSinDeath19: Thanks alot man! I think I will go the reinforced route. And yeah...the reason I'm not running the full set yet is because I can't find an RA hat that gives me more range than the Empress one...I think it's because my Empress hat has decent potential and it also completes the 4 set Empress for +15 att. So unless my RA hat has more than 15 att and the same potential or better, it's nor worth replacing my existing one. The only reason that I wanted to complete the set is that I just noticed my damage vs bosses is not what it should be at my level/range T_T.
[quote=Mobbo]@NaakteShadow: Yeah...I noticed a lot of people are simply using reinforced. I just assumed end-game mean't superior, but I think the reinforced set will suit my needs, and if anything I can always sell them later and upgrade to superior once I have other perfect end-game gear and am ready to increase my damage even further.[/quote]
Superior only gives a slight boost compared to reinforced. And It costs about 10bil more (Or even more than that if you already got your own rings and earrings but sold them). You can always scissor the reinforced set and resell if you get some decent potentials on it.
Also, even a 3 set CRA is good as that what gets you the +50 attack. You can worry about boss damage a bit later

@trancem5: That's very helpful, thank you.
@Mobbo: honestly id just cube and hope you get something amazing and stop when you get 2/3 lines of good things. so if youre cubing your essence and you get like 21% atk just keep and work on your other gears.
then when you do your emblem and you get like 75% pdr keep it for now.
its all about balancing out your stats. a good balance i would suggest is your
total pdr = 91-95%
boss = 200-270%
%atk 60-100%
don't cube for specific stats but try to have them balanced out. you might end up getting like 40% boss 18% atk on weapon, then 40% pdr 18% atk on secondary, then 21% atk on emblem.
just stop when it gets good.
@trancem5: Thanks. Should I be aiming for %att on my nova truth essence? or % boss (if that's possible)?
@NaakteShadow: Thank you, that means I should have a little more money to work with on other equips in the meantime. What do you think I should prioritize? A perfect reinforced gollux? Or superior? OR should I opt for tyrant boots/belt instead? Maybe better RA gear?
I just want to know what will give me more bang for my buck at this point since I imagine accumulating perfect gear is going to be a slow process for me, I want to ensure that I get the most for what I'm paying right now.
I wouldnt neb any gear unless its finished.
You can definitely neb the nova truth essence since that will never change unless you got a better one with better pot. Safe thing to do is wait til you have double legendary main pot/bpot before you neb either your sword or truth essence.
I suggest getting a clean fafnir sword and waiting til anniversary to scroll it. they may come out with a really good anniversary this year with easily obtainable scrolls. then wait til miracle time to cube your weapon. Only then i would suggest nebbing that.
