Where should I spend my money?

If you're going for WC squads, then in terms of priority:

1.) TT99 necklace to complete the bonus
2.) 2nd cast nirvy legs (you already have the TT99 legs)
3.) Pan Gu tome.

If you buy everything, TT99 necklace should be around ~12m or so (probably even cheaper due to x2 atm), 2nd cast legs would cost you 75m (300k per canny, and you already have the legs to cast), and a pan gu tome (if you buy the mystical tome fragments and pages) should cost you around 210-220m.

That's a total of roughly 300m to get the maximum APS for wc nirvy squads. From there you'll want to get at least a +7 refine on your weapon and +5 or higher refines on everything else. Balance your refines.

Then either go for r9 or g15 nirvy
Alot of sage sins on harshlands have +12 g13 but I don't know if that's a good idea

For a sage assassin:
G13 TT Nirvana +12, 1x Darkflame Stone = 509 097 dps
Rank 9 +12, 2x Garnets = 504 562 dps

This assumes:
Triple Sparked
Level 11 Dagger Devotion

So with the G13 weapon, you get more dps as well as faster chi gain.

+12 G13: 204,988 dps
+12 R9: 224,296 dps
+12 G15: 203,737 dps

For further comparison:

G13 +12 with 1x Garnet = 502 182 dps
Rank 9 +12, 2x Garnets = 504 562 dps
--> So Rank 9 wins by < 0.5%.

G13 +12 with 2x Garnets = 522 927 dps
Rank 9 +12, 2x Garnets = 504 562 dps
--> So again G13 wins by ~3.6%.

G13 +12 with 2x Darkflame Stones = 536 758 dps
Rank 9 +12, 2x Darkflame Stones = 516 812 dps
--> So again, G13 wins by ~3.9%.





I am not sure which build you are referring to, but all the actual calculations use the gem boost shown in the spreadsheet.

Not to ruin your fun, but the sheet is gravely faulty. You use the Dexterity and Dagger Devotion multipliers in the Base Min and Base Max values, then you re-use them in the "Average" values. That is, the weapon damage is multiplied by your Dexterity twice and your mastery once.

Also, in the Sparked DPH column, you divide the +500% from Sage Spark by 150, which is faulty, as Sage Spark is not Dexterity and thus does not get the division by 150.

Also, your multiplier for Slaying Levels is off. It should be (3 * Slaying Level) / (300 + Slaying Level).

I figured something was off when the sheet was showing numbers about twice as high as what I got off of PWCalc.

im a weak sin that cant find any nirvys squad

(just kidding guys, fish claws back in).

If they are sage, I'd say G13 after pants is a good idea. If they're demon I'd say keep your R8 and refine it and ornies for damage and defense, and start saving towards your tome. Skip G13 if you're demon.
