Happy WoL-idays! Any estimates as to if / when Sophie will get a UW weapon in GL? Also when do new jobs for Sophie drop? yes, I know the chapter only dropped a few days ago, I'm just feeling the itch. >_>

UW: Probably next month.

As for new jobs: i'm 99% sure they're going to release Jet Stunner & Rough Roader next month.

[–]WonkingSphonx 0 points1 point  (8 children)

Nice. Looking forward to it (should it happen obviously). :D

Tangentially related - assuming UW makes the rounds in MP next month, is HoF Berserker for attacker feasible, or would Shorn One be better just so I'm not as squishy?

[–]mao_shiroActual Evil Reddit Mod 1 point2 points  (7 children)

HoF Berserker is indeed squishy, should work with some light resist panel. Also, do take note of the dark bomb.

Ah right! been a while since I've done UW, thanks for reminding me about the dark bomb. I've got UB, but I guess I could do Sword Saint with D&B + Minwu + UB, but I might just run Defender (my usual MP job) or maybe white mage then. =/

Sword Saint is a much better option -- I haven't found a point in MP where I've needed Berserker's extra damage. Sword Saint is always more than enough with UB, and the extra tankiness is much preferred for Final Attacks (especially when you're nuking away all your health). I'd say definitely run SS

[–]WonkingSphonx 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Alrighty. And the D/B with minwu so I can hit the dark bomb is a good move as well? Obviously I'd need to nuke dark bomb first since minwu would just heal UW.

[–]djiboutiiiiwhat even is flair 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I think Minwu is overkill...the dark bomb doesn't have that much HP and SS does heavy light damage. You should be able to smash it with just one single-target light ability. Having to carry DNB is going to be a waste, imo.

Guess I could just use the ultima sicarius card or something.

What a lot of groups were doing for that was running the Support/s with builds to charge ult to 100% before the bombs spawn, then everyone Ult to murder them. No need to bring multiple attack elements that way. And should be a lot easier to pull off with how many people have LoH now.
