On the up side, at least the Moogle book gives crit making it basically the best scholar weapon to use for everything except running Bahamut's Coil.

7 mind + 4 magic damage >>>>>> 31 crit hit rate.

Oh f**k... I just spend 900myth upgrading my omnilex a few days ago... way to go me...

Nope. Huge MND drop (and EFFECTIVE MND drop from weapon damage) is not worth that crit. At all. Even comparing it to NQ Omnilex it's -1 damage, -3 MND/VIT. Effective ~10 MND drop for the 30 crit. That's debatable. Anything higher ilvl? Forget it. Moogle book loses.

Also those stat upgrades on the allagan weapons. I guess it would be nice for the extra vit and mnd

because spell speed is a craptastic stat....

I can't wait to see how much 2 magic and 3 mind increase my healing by xD.

I am gonna try to make a spell speed set to see how much it affects my abilites. 2.5 second stoneskin would be really sweet.

The Scholar Allagan book is still BiS and such a great weapon.
Non of the WHM weapons have determination..GG -.-

I don't think you should really worry about it, especially given the increase in Myth tome cap per week. Omnilex+1 is still better than Cognitome so you have the second-best SCH weapon at the moment. That Allagan book though....so good.

Pretty close indicator. About 30 hp increase for me.

to the dudes talking omnilex:

1. yes, still +1. omnilex is better
2. no, you should not be upset about +1ing your weapon. omnilex is better

what about spell speed and piety makes you go "I NEED TO HAVE THAT?" primal book sucks.

i was hoping to get a pre-allagan alternative to relic with crit but i guess i'll have to hold out now. the stats on the weapons are completely backwards

I would argue Omnilex+1 is not so much better that the Extreme weapon is made obsolete. Both should be adequate for turn 5. If you'd rather spend the myth on other things, get the Extreme book. If you already have Omnilex+1, keep using it.
