which is best for a bm endgame cuz after seeing bms getting r4ped by rank 9 sins is a bit too much. the only reason why i personally choose nirvana is for the apps. so like i said. which is the better of the 2 for the bm class endgame wise. :P

    You personally choose Nirvana for the what? Obviously R9 is better than Nirvana. I'm not sure why you even need to ask this.

    Since there is no r9 fist to my knowledge.....Nirvana Claw/Fist, R9 Axe.

    There are only two "best" options for a BM in PK:

    1) Full -int setup to hit 2.86-3.33 aps (as 4 aps would need LA, which is debatable) base
    2) Full Rank 9 to get the best possible defence and attack with axes.

    Kupuntu: Isn't the overall attk lvl + of the r9 gear 60?
    Then you would just need the wep (+30 on it) and a Jonas Blessing (+30) and you have the attk lvl of the full r9 gear. Then you can also shard in some JoSD of DoT (or DoD, idr which has the +1 def lvl, srry :s) and I believe you could come close to the same def lvl as r9 gear, with room left over for other stones....

    Tho correct me if my math is wrong :X

    You get +30 atk level (you need 4 pieces for the first +10 atk levels and 6 for the next +20 so you need wep too) and +20 def level, better refine than G12/G13/G15, you can use full JoSD that you can't do with TT99 pieces etc.

    Not to mention you can use Jones with R9. b:chuckle

    Even then, you can only get 3 pieces (best option would be helmet, leggings and plate) of Nirvana if you want to stay 5 aps unless you get tome AND LA/HA orns. Which, as we know, would be epicly bad idea.

    so getting r9 fists is better than getting nirv fists? cuz i want something that does more dmg for my endgame. and still keep 5 aps.

    There are no R9 fists.

    Nirvana with +20 atk level and possibly with some -int mods would be the best one.

    There are no other R9 weapons than R9 axes for BMs.

    there aren't any official stats on them yet, but when they come out then i'll look into their stats.

    *edit: im sure if they're not out now then they r coming out with more r9 weaps for us bms which will give us the edge in pvp <genesis expansion>

    pff then why show pics of r9 weaps then? imo whether they exist or not. they need to complete the set of bm weaps for r9 if they want more c$er's lolz.

    ***and when i say that more bm's will go endgame r9 and pwi will have an uber op class in its midst. perhaps that happens r9 endgame+nirvana chest plate,nirv leggings and nirv headgear is mine. :D

    well my friend has rank9 and he had 5aps gear before rank9 so he uses 5aps gear for pve and rank9 gear for pvp(he mix and matches his gear during pvp).

    This is my endgame build. As you see i didnt want to give up APS 5 for r9 but its still pretty tough though.

    like most have said if u have the money then use moth aps gear and r9. and then mix and match if needed. i wish i could do this if i had thee money but atm i dont but i sstill think a aps bm could beat a r9 in my opion, but if u mix aps and r9 its jsut unstopable.
