Hi DRG Community,

It's almost time for Maat soon and I was told that from 70-75 that I'll be in 65-67'ish parties. This being said, will I eventually need the 1.8 million Lv. 70 spear or can I skip it and get the Lv. 75?

I currently have:
lvl 60: Grand Knight's Lance
lvl 66: Cermet Lance (Waiting for +1 Cermet to appear at AH)

Next big purchase:
Lv. 75: Mezraq


Thank you.

Best,

~Rubi

Never use Engetsuto on Drg. There's a variety of options available 65-72 that I would use over that polearm.

https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Narval

https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Gae_Bolg

https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Colossal_Lance

https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Dreizack

Any of the last three are good to use until 75 honestly. Don't spend gil on Engetusuto unless you're a Sam or War. Even then I personally opted to just farm the mats and get it crafted because fuck spending 2 mil on that item. Only reason it's even worth that much currently is because Gondo-Shizunori and Tomoe are unobtainable atm due to the fights not being coded.

A lot of people sleep on Gae bolg.

It has an unusually high delay for a polearm which is good becase it makes for a free 6 hit when you sub sam without any additional store tp. You could probably 5 hit it if you are get creative and are using penta thrust or even 6hit as any non sam sub using carbonara with and maybe just using rajas + penta thrust. Also its rare/ex and 100% free to obtain.

(Also incase anyone doesnt know a 6 hit is when you have enough tp to WS with only 6 attacks/ws + 5 attacks which is what you ideally wanna shoot for as a 2 hander)

Thanks! Great to know.

I'll save the 1 mill for the Lv. 75 spear ;)

Cheers,

~Rubi

Yup, Gae Bolg is nice for pure TP, likely to be the strong choice. I have to say though, most of the presented options have their up sides. I swung a Narval for a bit, but that's mainly because I'm a taru and I'm hungry for any scrap of hp I can get (addl effect, as is the trend, doesn't work). Colossal Lance is cool because the extra vit beefs up your jumps, and who doesn't like str. The auto attack damage on the Dreizak is great, but again, broken addl effect. Personally, I did sport an engetsuto for a while, but this is because I got it cheap back when people didn't really know it's potential on sam and war, and I was regularly seeing myself at 999 TP with the gearset I had, so that store TP was nice. I guess my point is, take your pick. Try the free ones. Tweak your numbers. Have fun with it.

Personally, I'd go with the Mezraq since Gondo-Shizunori, Cletine, and lolTomoe are not accessible at this time. I will make one for you for free if you gather the materials.

Very yes, the Mezraq is the best polearm besides the relic, I’m just sayin all those free options are workable until he gets to 75.

Hi Everyone,

I am 74 and will be 75 tonight. Thank you for the info and threads. Very helpful. I found someone to help me kill Ooze.

I'll gather the mats for Mezraq, thanks!
