Cheap stats... WTF, SquareEnix?

[Raxiaz]

Something like haubergeon, when scaled down to 45, ought to give at least DEX+2 (in correspondence with Brigandine). Basically, I feel that level 60 gear with +5 stats ought to give +3 stats at level 30 if there's a level 30 piece (same slot) that gives +3 stats. Just an example. I don't feel like scrounging through equipment lists to find comparisons and/or appropriate scaling for gear stats.

(Edited because Haubergeon doesn't give VIT+.... I think)

Hmm.

Ukon WAR...or SMN...

Well if something is tough and the group sucks at stunning, I guess you can always use that extra PDT from the EA b*****

[Dallas]

Rax, if you don't know what SMN and BST can solo, you don't know what they can duo. You probably also don't know that involves next to 0 hate. You probably also don't know that WAR and BLM are going to die in that party. We don't invite WHM, they are going to die in that party.

That's

the

point.

Which you don't appear to want to know. So lol.

[Babekeke]

That's enough for me. I've seen too many threads trolled by that idiot. Congratulations Dallas, you are my first addition to ignore list.

I can only hope that others follow suit and stop biting to your idiocy.

As for OP:

DRG legs with haste +4% is best in slot for tp

WHM body with 13~14% and refresh is best in slot unless you have roundel

MNK legs aren't bad for ws, but not best by far

there are some other key pieces.

You can cap Cure Potency without Roundel and still use AF3+2 body, which also happens to have Refresh+2 so Facio body is just a stepping stone to better gear, hardly best in slot.

Using a Medicine Ring. There's no problem with the set, but when you add in human error using latent rings can become a problem.

You don't need a roundel, but, at least personally, I think a more defensive WHM (one who doesn't have to gimp his HP from Medicine Ring) is better than a WHM that could die. Weakened recast of Cure VI is not such a great thing.

Like it's hard glancing at your HP every minute or so or staying out of AoE (like you should be doing anyways).

10% is a lot, especially if it frees up your body slot to use Orison Body. Calling WHMs who do not use Medicine Ring (because of the latent) defensive is just lol. I call them lazy.

Shit can hit the fan easily. It's not so much an issue in most content at the moment, but having 25% more HP when you get Spike Flail'd with Stoneskin on might just make the difference in the fight.

The best WHM has both options.

I can agree with this.

[Leonlionheart]

I can agree with this.

Yeah, I'm not disagreeing with you; Medicine Rings are amazing.

I've just had too many situations where I needed that little something extra. 12/12 HP merits D:
