How do you feel about BnS Dark Pirate weapon

I got one of these from surveys and I am extremely tempted to use it on the box for the weapon from fighting that monster that you summon with the dead pig cuz it's a real pain in the ass solo(over 300k life with grapples and throws and charges and a crap-ton of dmg - for a solo). But I don't want to blow it on that just to find there's some further weapon that I'll be pulling my hair out over even more.

You should have saved it for Dark Pirate weapon. You can get the boxes from 24 man which took me 6 kills to receive safe bns gold. It's an RNG box that drops from an RNG box. You can also obtain it from 6/4 man daily reward I believe. If you are having trouble with Hujikar or Forgotten Brightstone I'm sorry, but it gets much worse. I have over 200 Purple Brightstone from soloing it, since you get one per run. Easily soloable so using it there is bad advice. The keys are also 8-10g now, not 2g... Check the prices the past week? They probably won't go below 8g now that RNG boxes are gone.

Setting real AA via Nvidia control panel has no effect, FXAA does work, but FXAA is a cappy and cheap AA that just blurrs the edges of everything including text (chat window, character/npc names, etc.)

What people misunderstand about forcing AA through Nvidia control panel for BnS is they would set FXAA - ON then proceed to set supersampling to 8x (which does absolutely nothing and FXAA just takes over afterward) which is wrong and not how you go about forcing real MSAA or SSAA for BnS.

If you want real AA setting, you'll have to use Nvidia Inspector (3rd party program) and its the only way to have proper MSAA or SSAA. It allows you to define the correct AA comparability bit for BnS and specify the exact AA that works for BnS. There's already plenty of information on how to do it, not gonna spend time repeating it.

There is a thread on official forum with this. Someone mentions that changing it in NVCP won't work on blade and soul gold farming. You have to use Nvidia Inspector to force the profile. Both didn't work for me after hours of testing, so I gave up. But apparently, it works for him and he shows screenshot where I can see the difference.
