# Other options to supply the missing FCT include the combo of Thanatos Accessories consisting of {{#icon:490052}}{{#linkitem:490052|Sinful Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490053}}{{#linkitem:490053|Sinful Sapphire Necklace}}(0.3s FCT), and {{#icon:490064}}{{#linkitem:490064|Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490065}}{{#linkitem:490065|Brilliant Light Sapphire Necklace}}(0.2s FCT), then wearing {{#icon:24747}}{{#linkitem:24747|Spell Caster Shadow Armor}} + {{#icon:24748}}{{#linkitem:24748|Spell Caster Shadow Shoes}} (0.3s FCT when both at +10). And though you will encounter a noticeable damage loss and minor but solvable instant cast problems with that set-up by losing key parts of your HoL set, it will still be good enough to let you farm low to mid game dungeons but not endgame dungeons anymore. | # Other options to supply the missing FCT include the combo of Thanatos Accessories consisting of {{#icon:490052}}{{#linkitem:490052|Sinful Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490053}}{{#linkitem:490053|Sinful Sapphire Necklace}}(0.3s FCT), and {{#icon:490064}}{{#linkitem:490064|Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring}} + {{#icon:490065}}{{#linkitem:490065|Brilliant Light Sapphire Necklace}}(0.2s FCT), then wearing {{#icon:24747}}{{#linkitem:24747|Spell Caster Shadow Armor}} + {{#icon:24748}}{{#linkitem:24748|Spell Caster Shadow Shoes}} (0.3s FCT when both at +10).

As the three options are listed according to their importance and tested effectiveness, my go-to choice in the absence of an Ultra Limacina Card will always be the first one because though it doesn't allow me to cast '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' and endow '''{{#skill:2449}}''' to other elements, it still gives me the ability to cycle my 4th job skills and wear drop rate shoes/headgear. The main idea behind this build anyway is to spam PW as much as possible in any given opportunity and doesn't revolve around Elemental Buster. Just make sure you wear your [[The Complete Elemental Master Guide by Goldie#Tank Gears|tank gears]] when summoning <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> so she doesn't die that often and then give yourself a minute or two of allowance before attempting to resummon her. Resummon <span style="color:green;">Ventus</span> while she's still active and on Passive Mode so you can capitalize on that 1 second FCT for faster summoning. | As the three options are listed according to their importance and tested effectiveness, my go-to choice in the absence of an Ultra Limacina Card will always be the first one because even though it doesn't allow me to cast '''https://static.divine-pride.net/images/skill/5380.png <span style="background:linear-gradient(to right, #FF3F34 0%, #2C6FBB 25%, #268F15 50%, #B5651D 75%, #800080 100%); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">Elemental Buster</span>''' and endow '''{{#skill:2449}}''' to other elements, it still gives me the ability to cycle my 4th job skills and wear drop rate shoes/headgear.

I've always viewed Psychic Wave as more of a Farming build and less as a core DPS build which is why any pieces of gears that will make PW optimal and comfortable for farming will be chosen over damage once you can OHKO monsters with the skill. | I've always viewed Psychic Wave as more of a Farming build and less as a core DPS build which is why any pieces of gears that will make PW optimal and comfortable for farming will be chosen over damage once you can OHKO monsters with the skill. | ||
For starters, the Lord Bearer's set comprising of {{#item:24764}} + {{#item:24763}} is preferably chosen over Sorcery Master Shadow and Full Spell Shadow due to the Lord Bearer's undeniable utility in the form of permanent '''{{#skill:8}}''' effect. By having unlimited Endure, you can never be flinched by normal physical attacks of monsters which will make your farming more efficient and smooth. | For starters, the Lord Bearer's set comprising of {{#item:24764}} + {{#item:24763}} is preferably chosen over Sorcery Master Shadow and Full Spell Shadow due to the Lord Bearer's undeniable utility in the form of permanent '''{{#skill:8}}''' effect. By having unlimited Endure, you can never be flinched by normal physical attacks of monsters which will make your farming more efficient and smooth. When opting for higher damage per tick of PW, decently enchanted '''Clever Shadow Gears''' will give slightly more damage than '''Magical Spell Shadow Gears''' since PW does not scale directly with SPL unlike your 4th job skills; and while SPL grants some StatusMAtk which PW can benefit on, the MAtk% from the Clever Shadow Gears bears more weight and value for PW. | ||
However if you're still lacking in the damage department, '''Sorcery Master Shadow Gears''' will give out the highest damage output while '''Full Spell Shadow Gears''' were once your transitory gears that can still serve their purpose by coming in second with the highest damage output. Sorcery Master Shadow Gears are also incredibly expensive to make so stick with Full Spell Shadow Gears when in need of more damage. | However if you're still lacking in the damage department, '''Sorcery Master Shadow Gears''' will give out the highest damage output while '''Full Spell Shadow Gears''' were once your transitory gears that can still serve their purpose by coming in second with the highest damage output.
