Ooo, grats valho!

I'm currently waiting for a FATE to pop so I can continue on with this book for the atma. Reminder all, you have to complete the entire book for the stats, not each section. So the skill speed is an underwhelming +2, not a +8 if you thought it was per part completed (meaning don't get the skill speed book, like I unfortunately did).

I am working on Book 1 for relic atma, I choose the str one, just need to get some mobs kill and 1 dungeon done, but not enough myth for the next book at the moment

Does anyone have a table with the stats of all the new Monk gear?

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/ has all the updated gear.
If that is what you mean.

Hmm ... close enough, I can probably use that. Thanks.

I'm too lazy to go open each item and transcribe from xivdb for classes I don't play.

Edit:

Actually I can't highlight copy-paste the data, or print to PDF and export into a convenient format. What an annoying site.

Edit2:

Apparently Adobe Acrobat is smart enough to be able to export into an excel format and interpret the table printed from the website. I am a genius.

Monk stat weights based on a "just below i110/115" baseline:

WD 8.730
STR 1.000
DET 0.332
CRT 0.187
SS 0.187

(SS is slightly lower than CRT, but similar when rounded)

Note: the prior stat weights are still effective for the i90-i95 gear level. The main shift in weights occurs from the spike in Strength with the new gear. This STR spike has a different impact on Determination compared to Crit/SS.

BiS with the new gear for a 470 accuracy target (may not be the correct target) probably close to:

H-Allagan Belt
H-Allagan Boots
H-Allagan Bracelet Slaying
H-Allagan Earring Slaying
H-Allagan Helm
H-Allagan Ring Slaying
H-Allagan Weapon

Gloam Chest
Gloam Gloves
Gloam Leggings
Gloam Necklace
Gloam Ring

Definitely not the cap, there are already reports that the acc cap is a bit higher in SCoB. Especially if you want that High Allagan weapon, I'd look at getting everything 110 and shoot for a 500-515 acc (just my guess for T9) IMO it would look something like this:

Or if you don't want to check out the link:
Weapon: Glanzfaust

Head: High Allagan Headgear of Striking

Body: Gloam Tabard

Hands: High Allagan Gauntlets of Striking

Belt: Gloam Belt

Legs: High Allagan Trousers of Striking

Feet: High Allagan Boots of Striking

Neck: Gloam Choker

Ears: High Allagan Earrings of Slaying

Wrist: High Allagan Bracelets of Striking

Ring 1: Gloam Ring

Ring 2: High Allagan Ring of Slaying

This setup gives the projected higher accuracy, maintains the 425ish Skill Speed "cap" for fitting 5 GCD skills into one Perfect Balance, and prioritizes the next highest weighted skill in Determination.

Obviously, I'm not perfect and this is all theorycrafting on my part, so any additional input is always welcome.
*afternote: this takes food into consideration*

I was missing with 501 accuracy from the back and flank on turn 9, after having to resort to putting on atma weapon (barf) to gain accuracy, @ 514 and didn't miss unless striking from the front (lolwut), I'd take a random guess and say accuracy needed for turn 9 to be anywhere from 520-530's

But as a mnk, hitting from the front is ONLY a last resort, so we're looking for a number between 501 and 515.

Wow, that's a pretty big acc jump. Thought it'd be 490's at most.
