What to change if any besides moonshade > Vulcan pearl and possibly using Myrmex for uncapp. Unsure how to improve besides what i listed, any input appreciated. Thanks

Nothing available to you will really make a huge difference. Would sell the bier +1 and just use Black belt. Worst case scenario you lose ~15 damage if dDEX doesn't change, if it does it's an increase. Also saves an inventory. Kacura +1 feet unless getting dDEX gains from thaumas.
Rancor Collar with Atheling and Thaumas Hat should be in both sets. Wanion instead of Beir +1
I've been told Rancorous + Justiciar's is better than Rancor + Atheling.
I might just be confused or something, but why would you trade 1str 13dex & 3% DA for 5 accuracy & 12 vit (Toci vs af3+2) if Impetus being up or not isnt part of either set?

because the beret gives a better STR total? idk, honestly.
What I'm using at the moment:
Impetus Down
Impetus Up
Not a lot of big differences, just some mild tweaks... My Verethragna is level 90.
Am I missing anything noteworthy at a glance (aside from Myrmex... I'm not convinced they exist)? I'm not on MNK too often, so I don't get to experiment much... I'd macro in elemental belt/gorget if accuracy was an issue.

Tantra Tathlum when attack is maxed. Potestas when not, or stay with Thew if you don't feel like paying for Potestas.
Moonshade over Vulcan's
Moonshade over Vulcan's
Azy, can you drop the nef collar when impetus is up, or do you still need that 3%? That might be a slot to look at as well (maybe just a justicar torque or something?)
Yeah, my Moonshade is refresh/macc, so that's a no-go. For ammo I was considering using a Cheruski Needle for decent STR and a little more DEX for crits... That might be viable.
So the spreadsheet I've been using is giving me mixed reviews, it's saying different ***wins that what people in the forum are saying. So, this is what I currently have at the moment.
VS (Imp/Ber down)
VS (Imp/Ber Down, this I got from someone else)
VS (Imp/Ber Up)(no idea what I'm doing for different gear, honestly.)
Any gear changes to be made? Aside from Wanion/Tenryu+1/Salvage I have most gear.

What monster are you fighting?
That second set is garbage. The first set and the third set are exactly what I use, except I have Wanion Belt in both sets, and Potestas Bomblet in the first set.
Although if you look back a page or 2 (I can't remember now), someone claimed that Aias Bonnet was better for one of the sets depending on race probably.

Is Prosilio belt worth keeping for Smite at all? I currently have Wanion, Prosilio and Light Belt as my WS belts. If I can sell if off that would be nice.

I've been told Rancorous + Justiciar's is better than Rancor + Atheling.
Can anyone confirm this? Every time I use spreadsheet I get differing numbers on both sides if all things being equal and I can't figure out why.
Also is Prosilio used for all sets, or just Berserk down?
I've got Rancorous Mantle + Gorget/Nefarious winning on most things but the minute you benefit from all of the attack Justiciar's offers its the clear winner.
Just finished my Veres tonight and putting together a starter set to hold me over until NNI. I found gear for every slot, but I got to legs and I'm stumped... Is Hachiryu Haidate the only substitute until Thaumas?
This is what I threw together just now with what I own, gonna work on Aias Bonnet and Moonshade Earring asap. Waiting for a Prosilio Belt to go on AH but I don't know if it's for every WS set or just Berserk down?

A few substitutes, some of which are useful for other things. Can work on Usukane which you can use to +1 later on if you play PUP or NIN. Abatteur has a lot of uses on it. Can just buy an alcide's +1 on AH for quite a bit cheaper, too.
What are my option until i get vulcan earring and if i dont have moonshade right augment. (going to get refresh because im playing mage 90% of the time.)
should i just go for flame pearl?

If you don't wanna spend money, for a long time I used the abyssea trophy pants. They have 3 STR and after like 20 attempts I got a pair with +3 STR augmented on it.

Ended up trying that, 45 trophies later still only managed +1 STR and gave up. Luckily found a pair of Hachiryus in a bazaar the next day.
Augmented Byakko's Haidate
Although I guess it's a lil late to mention them now

Hachiryu looks way better than Byakko's though.
Edit: Would Usukane Hizayoroi +1 be better than Thaumas Kecks/Abatteur subligar for Smite?

Would you use Caudata Belt for VS? I currently use wanion belt.

Wanion Belt:
STR+8 DEX+8 VIT-5 AGI-5 INT+8 MND-5
Caudata Belt:
STR+6 VIT+6 INT+6 Attack+15 Weapon Skill Accuracy+10
Wanion Belt:

I just added it to my impetus up set, gonna try it out and see if I like it. Was using Prosilio.
Ok looking forward toward your opinion.
