Hi, I am looking to get some advice on how I can better my current/goal gear sets for my BRD.

I am Grim Dhalmelneck from Hyperion, I am also looking for a DL run/Primal LS if there is someone here from Hyperion!
Please /tell in-game if you want to know more about me and my character! Ok, to the gear sets~

Current set...

Feet - Choral Sandals (also have Explorer's Moccasins)
Ears - Explorer's Earrings
Neck - Electrum Gorget +1

On the feet, you'll want to aim for Darklight Boots rather than Darklight Caligae. The extra +5 piety and -30 emnity is worth more than the +20 crit attack power and +10 accuracy. ie: Go to Aurum Vale rather than Cutter's Cry.

I have gotten Darklight Boots for my BRD now, still after the Callligae for my DRG and MNK. I also gained a Raptorskin Harness with +33 PIE, went 1/3 on it and gained a pair of Felt Bracers with +52 Attack Power, went 1/1 on them. A setup for my Relic has also been planned out for when I get my hands on it.
