Didn't you get pants too? I think that's a better sign.

shhh take it and stay drg.

If they keep us with gimped mag defense and lack of utility they had better buff our dps substantially to compensate in both the burst and sustained department.

I can't see the mdef going unchanged.

It wouldn't surprise me if thats all they do - buff mdef.

So, I managed to contact EasyModeX about new stat weights. He was kind enough to do a little math after the new patch. About the new values you should keep in mind that:
- EMX is not playing FFXIV at the moment but his model is still viable
- there's no chance he'll directly re-assess the stat weights
- in his spreadsheet you can put higher stat values and derive the new approximate stat weights

He asked me to post a "top-end set of whatever new gear is "in"" and let him know what my final stats are (WD, Str, Det, Crit rating, SS)".

I gave him two sets matching the accuracy cap 558, the one needed to cap frontal accuracy in T13, according to my sources.
I posted a first set with 564 accuracy

Weapon Damage: 58
Strenght: 663 (+388) My race, Mi'qote Seeker of the Sun has a bonus of +4 in comparison to the lowest strenght race (Lalafells)
Critical Hit Rate: 490 (+149)
Determination: 361 (+159)
Skill Speed: 363 (+22)

And this, with 557 accuracy:

Weapon Damage: 58
Strenght: 663 (+388)
Critical Hit Rate: 476 (+134)
Determination: 376 (+174)
Skill Speed: 363 (+22)

Sorry for the long introduction.
So this is the results from EMX:
Based on his model the actual stat weights are:

WD 9.355
STR 1.000
DET 0.329
CRT 0.234
SS 0.194
