And currently have less def than any other stat.
Any Ideas? Did I miss out on something? Why are lancers made to be so very "magical".

Sorry if this has been brought up before, perhaps I did too little research.

Start using the Guild Marks Items which redistribute the stat points to another stat, like changing Piety to Dex or Str, its the best way, thats what I been doing.

Champions Lance with +27 ATT
Tortoiseshell Scale Mail (white) with Crit +23 Att
Cobolt Barbut with MND +17
Boarskin Skirt (red)+1 with +10Str/+10Dex
Cobolt Mits (red) with STR+17
Peistskin Hunting belt (Fire Veil +10)
Cobolt Solerets (red) With HP +23)
Mythril Bracelet
Rings Str+7 x2

Upgrading materia as I get it, and to adjust my setup. Going for a Hart Guisarme +3 too if I can get it.

Currently what I'm using:

Main: Hart Guisurme +1 +22 atk +23 atk = 7acc. +60 atk total
Head: Cobalt Elmo +1 (Red) m.eva +17
Body: Cobalt Haubergeon (Red) crit +42 (Blew up six savage mights trying to meld by now, according to Carraway's datas just gonna stop)
Hands: Felt Bracers (Blue) +15 Str +23 atk
Legs: Felt Trousers (Red) +12 str +12 Dex
Waist: Penance
Rings: Garnet x3
Feet: Cobalt Sollerets (Red) +16 m.eva

Currently sitting at 311 Str 565 atk. Gonna trying to sell off all these gear by late November then remax with HQ triple melds after 1.20. Just glad that Savage might is tested to be absolutely crap so saves a ton of money right there.

Savage Might isn't totally crap, it just adds to critical attack power by a slight margin. It certainly helps, but it's not worth sacrificing base damage on a weapon over.

I was a little more concerned with the economic issue with Savage Might than the actual performance issue. Currently it is the most expensive materia in game (on our server) seeing it is arguably the only offensive ability for the body slot for DDs. T4 minimum SMs (+42) has been going strong on Kashuan for around 5m a pop (at the height of the hype 8-10m/pop) -- at the same time T4 min attack (+26) going for 1 mil, Str (+16) around 300k. One could gear out to above average with the same amount of money it takes to buy one piece of savage might -- and that ain't going to taste right for the misinformed player that spent all of the savings on Savage might giving minimal gain.
