So wait, does that mean you can only have one clone if you started out with a full party of 5? I see that Tagen Battou has a ridiculous damage modifier (like 5100% or so) if you use it with five clones, but I was sort of on the fence about how much you would have to set that up and everything even if those clones were "free." If you have to basically solo a Ninja to even have the room to theoretically do that, though? Man, fuck that.
I guess sticking a Wildling pet in the sixth slot may have its uses, though. Hmm. Maybe I'll sub it at some point or something. Like I said, I'm pretty happy with my party for what it is right now, but it's only floor 1 and I haven't even beaten the "map this chunk of the floor to prove you're not a complete n00b" quest yet, so who knows what the future holds.
Also, Hexer + Ecstasy is nice, they complement each other well and such, but I wouldn't call it broken, especially because Dark Hunters could pretty much take care of everything by themselves if they wanted to with Dominate anyway. Especially with their Force Up whip (the aptly named Dominator) equipped.
According to the skill sim, Waste Not caps at +5%, but since I assume that's just straight-up added to the drop rate (80% chance to drop items are now 85%) rather than going through some arcane formula, that's not too bad. I mean, it's not the night-and-day "enemy drops? what are those?" vs "OH MY GOD I ONLY GOT IN TWO FIGHTS AND MY INVENTORY IS FULL ALREADY, HALP" difference EO2 Scavenge made, but it's helpful. As for Keen Nose, considering I still have traumatic flashbacks of trying to get those damned Pop Leaves for Ur-Child, let's just say Keen Nose is one of the main reasons (though there are surprisingly many other reasons when all is said and done) I'm maining a Farmer.
