Neamhain Raid: Will you do it or pass?
Just gauging on how many people would be interested in fighting Neamhain.

@Necrochild You don't necessarily need 140 crit since 120-130 crit is more than enough. Of course, if you're going for 140 crit so you can crit 50% of the time, then good luck. 100 kills is +5 crit total, so participating in this raid is worth doing.
Lately, I've been seeing players going in with 13K - 14K DEF; lowest being 11K DEF Delia and 12K DEF TS Vella (Toxxy). I assume the 15K DEF and higher was to get a feel for the raid.
Hopefully, I can get my only best geared character (Hurk) into that raid. Current stats:
24.5K ATT
13K DEF
84 balance
46 attack speed
125 crit
94 crit resist
With AP shop items:
25.8K ATT
14.3K DEF
84 balance
46 attack speed
125 crit
94 crit resist
With Smash Update, AP Shop items, 100 Neamhain kills:
27K ATT
14.3K DEF
90 balance
50 attack speed
135 crit
94 crit resist
Items:
+11 Well-Balanced Enthusiastic Pirate Helm, +12 Temporal Stigma Pirate Mail, +10 Memorable Expeditionary Pirate Greaves, +14 Tutelary Armadillo Pirate Gauntlets, +10 Tutelary Armadillo Pirate Boots
Accessories:
Sig/Passion Innocent Cry, 3* Sub/Passion Emerald Belt, Explorer's Berserker Erg Core Brooch, CM/Passion Thunder Ring, The Dead/Passion Thunder Ring, Sig/Passion Werewolf Paw
No infusions other than DEF on armor.
There is also the update to Enchant Scrolls and effects added to scrolls; Armadillo ES will have a 3% chance to proc +50% crit resist from being hit. This will help those that don't have high enough crit resist.
On the upside, there's also the +crit paper that we're stocking up on in this chieftain grind to bridge any gaps that folks may have. Even easier if people are rocking Immoral over Righteous.
Unfortunately, I have terrible infusion luck. I get the feeling I'll never get crit infusion unless Nexon introduced crit element stones. 4 Accessories that I could potentially crit infuse to boost my crit.
Of course, there is room for me to improve my stats.
I do think it will be worth to have a succubus fang to swap to for this raid.
As for the 15 potion thing, I think I'll be able to adapt it. Whenever I do S3 maps or raids, I do have potions on hand, but I don't rely on using them. If I do, I keep it to a minimum. With the 15 potion limit, I think the most wise thing to do is use a minimum of 5 potions or less per phase. 1st and 2nd phase shouldn't be too much trouble for me, but I think with 3rd phase, I'll probably need to rely on the potions.
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll probably farm the Regular Succubus Fang since 150 seals isn't so bad and the 10 sec difference doesn't bother me.
Wasn't able to do my planned speed upgrades from Einrach and Smash 1 (SOONTM) all because of this.
