Both.

I think there's approximately 120k different combinations of gear and melds you can use this patch.

i Dunno the accuracy cap for a8s so went baked pipira to be safe but i would definately use steamed staff on every over fight

Just for your information. you have 1x Acurracy IV so your BiS actually has +3 accuracy than you've listed on the website :)

No? The piece with the Acc IV is capped on Accuracy, and if you shift that Acc Materia anywhere else, you'll end up replacing 12 Crit with 12 Det, which is a net loss of stat weight, when breaking things down.

The idea of that set is to maximize Crit while reaching ACC and SKS caps? I don't particularly like it, but yeah.

my bad then sry :)

Is it confirmed that the acc cap for A8S stands in 723? or is it 720?

if its 723, ive come up with this one: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/TEEK

any ideas?

No one knows. No one is saying anything, but it's definitely in the 700-730 range.

EDIT: 696 is the value that's been flying around for A8S Flank, afaik. But from the looks of it, there's definitely a few mechanics where you're forced to attack from the front on Brute Justice.

705 for front at most, apparently: https://www.bluegartr.com/threads/12...=1#post6662298

Yeah, I just read it myself. If that's true, then our BiS stats will be:

705 Acc
1135 CRT
613 DET
611 SS
Baked Pipira HQ

Need more confirmation however before I post the set.

Oops, he made a very slight mistake in one of the gear pieces, meld wise, when listing them all in his spreadsheet :(

I can't beat it. In fact, I'm not even sure how you got to those numbers, as I always end up short on crit or sksp. Best I could manage was: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/TG82 705 Acc/1084 Crit/613 Det/594 Sksp. I take it there's something I didn't consider lol.
