No one likes g3 due to Boal but it doesn't make doing C3 impossible...Why be people complaining about g3 when g9-12 has nothing to do it in story wise? You don't have to be a Drk to do g9-12, you don't need 'The savoir of Erinn' Title for g9-12, the obsidian ES is outclassed by the Caliburn ES (10 damage > 15 str, 10 crit > 10 luck). Theres nothing there to make g3 an excuse for future generation unless it was a continuation.

Actually, Baol was made easy thanks to Ice Mines. I mean seriously, Ice Mines make it a walk in the park.
Dual wielding Obsid still is pretty good.
But still badly outclassed by Caliburn. Only mages really benefit from it now due to only stat not outclassed by Caliburn being the 15int. Since you can only do weapons you can really benefit from it unless you put it on a wand, now would do that? Thats like giving out your bank account number and pin to a shaddy looking guy.I have a goddess/Trustworthy Combat Wand. It's sitting at 12/15 dura, and I don't have the funds to repair 72k/point at berched. I should probably put obi or caliburn on it though.
Goddess Caliburn is clearly the best ES combo for anything. Caliburn beats Spike and Stiff and when paired with a Goddess can add +18max damage. It easier to Enchant also with it being such a low rank. The costs are great when done on a broadsword since they already sport a low repair cost.

that aside... until g13 changes to INT system are made... the INT on obi is pointless even for mages, really. I could maybe see some mage using bolt mastery and paired goddess/obi daggers for some serious boltspam or something... maybe?
all else being equall, paired obsidian daggers versus paired caliburn daggers for final hit. Each strike is Base+weapon where caliburn adds 10 damage 10% to that strikes crit chance. Not too shabby. Obsidian on the other hand adds 15 str, which adds to base. so both obsidian weapons' str total is +30 str, or +12 damage. Similarly, the +10 luck on each is +20 Luck total, or +4% crit.
Spike similarly outclasses caliburn for damage, since it would add +18 damage to each strike. Horn is of course even better.
Goddess/obi or spike for damage, stiff or lizard/caliburn for crit.
Certain Alchemy skills' critical hit rate will now be based on cylinders' critical hit rates.
What dose this mean?
yup. and for comparison, 30 INT from dual gooddes/obi daggers would be (in g13) +1.5% damage, or around 2.25 more damage on lightning bolt.
YAY!
