Glorious shortlived redemption aside, I tend to agree. Most of the voidwatch armor is pretty second rate, but when things like Relics exist, Creating first rate weapons is impossible. however, that new Shield/Sword/Staff really are the best new melee weapons short of the Legendaries. So that goes for something.

Nyzul Armor does hold king in most spots, but some Voidwatch gear is respectable, if only for some situational armor. like the DT body. Or the Cure Potency body.

But on a serious note. Melee Summoner Staff. I'm going to get it one day if my Account is ever reactivated. If only for the glorious lulz i can have when I whip that thing out in public and bash on things with it. I tried that once before with a type of staff, People didn't appreciate it. But this time will be different.
I actually thought that Pchan post was respectable too, except for the underlying assumption in nearly all of his posts that one should be Neo-Nyzuling or farming ADL for money and nothing else. I am Neo-Nyzulling myself but it's a few hours every 5-7 days (more commonly 7 days since statics like to meet the same time each week). I agree the rewards from Neo-Nyzul are superior, but my activity in the event is not mutually exclusive to doing VW for those other pieces that benefit my jobs (however "great", "minor", or "sidegrade" they are). I sometimes see him castigate drops for jobs that he doesn't play, which ties into his overal opinion that the majority of jobs besides MNK + WHM + BRD + COR are worthless (and SMN but he'd say "only its 2hr").
