My brewer was #1 on that list before Behemoth had any god items, so please don't make statements like that.??I've always had optimal success rates for the gear available to me.??
Brisingamen provide a 1.3% success chance increase each.??Nimble Orlean's Gloves provide a 0.5% success chance increase each.??That means TWO God Items provide a cumulative 1.6% increase in success chances for brewing slim whites.??Woo!
Similarly, a Mjolnir increases success by 4%.??An Excalibur increases success by 1.15%.??So that's a 2.85% success increase for a god item.
Man, you all had better camp castles for 3+ years so you can get these god items - they're totally game breaking for brewing, amirite???Even if you had all three god items that benefit brewing you'd come out less than 5% ahead of those who have good gear that they could have farmed solo.
No, Astaroth is #1 because of regular need for brewing and the help of a great group of people willing to play supportive roles for brewing on a constant basis - NOT because of god items.
EDIT: Unrelated, but how in the world does Bathory farming require Bathory armor? They're level 44 monsters with 0 defense and less than 6k hp. They used to be one of THE spots to level undergeared characters.
