Currently on turn 2. To be honest I dont really care about BiS, I just want the best gear for what I have now.

I am so confused as to what gear should I buy next. Should I save the money for myth chest piece,
or
should I buy other myth gear in other word, delay the chest piece and buy the materia for the gryphon tunic instead? If so, what gear? I'm thinking of getting another ring but after all this discussion I'm so confused.

You could save the Myths for the AF2 hands(really REALLY nice piece) or the AF2 body and make yourself a Gryphonskin Ring and meld that instead with the fats since our ring drops in Turn 5. It's a nice combo to use with Hero's. You can meld it with IV VIT, 2x III Crits and 2x III Dets for the best meld you can get.

Blah blah stats, once I hit 50 I'm going for the relic +1. That glow is sexy.

Yup. I hate the way DL armor and head gear looks on brd. I skipped DL Body completely and went for af2 armor, and i'm planning to go for af2 head piece now to replace the dumb lookin DL head gear (EYE PATCH! REALLY?!?!).

I'm finally going to give in and buy the pants after holding them off for so long now. I'm going to miss my all pink bard when I get those ugly pants in 3 weeks!

Ok heres my problem. RIght now im at 483 accuracy which is right at the cap for coil turn 4. I am geared with Myth belt, ring, gloves and allagan bracelt. My next upgrade should of course be the myth pants. However I will lose almost 18 accuracy and that will put me to 465 which is way under the cap. What should I do?

Use the Acc food. See if your stats meet the req and get a HQ or get a crafted ring.

Guys ! Is the first post still accurate ? What is the BIS ? Is the +1 weapon still not the best way of spending our mytho' ? Thanks =)

It is still accurate. We are the only class that gets a 1 weapon damage increase as opposed to 2

It's accurate if you want to base your spending solely around an auto attack damage formula that ignores skillspeed, limit break damage, vitality, the possible allagan drops that are competitive, AND the fact that you need to maintain Accuracy cap... : /
(that is to say, it's good information, but it's FAR from "Calculated optimal Myth Spending")

This. I got my Ring first (since I didn't have the Relic at the time), then got my +1 and my Pants; I'm now working on my Gloves. Skill Speed isn't a huge increase, admittedly, but the Limit Break damage is relevant. Also, those 3 items ALL drop in Turn 5.

I know I should buy the gloves then the belt first, but I can't spend one more week in the darklight chest. I'd rather blow my brains out. Plus the Myth chest looks amazing on a Miqo'te.

I felt your pain a while ago. Darklight gear is hideous on a bard. I can't wait to replace my boots with Allagan. xD

Honestly?

Casters have that hideous hooded cowl, tanks have that ridiculous tin bunny knight....thing, Monks have a goddamned subligar...

Bards have the best looking DL imo.

...Which just happens to still look pretty awful. Still, I was so vehemant about not wearing Monk DL I went the Gryphonskin route. Atleast Bard doesn't have to rock a steel diaper.

Personally I find all the Darklight looks bad. I went for the HQ crafts instead for my casters.

I think you need to do another one based on the new gear if you don't mind! Please Please !

Putting "please" at the end of a demand doesn't make it sound any nicer.
