For MCH and Alex/ Law gear

I noticed a lot of law gear and Alex gear lacks crit.

However because of this I am curious if the best gear at present is a combination of the Alex pieces with crit and the law pieces with crit.

I like the crits the MCH gets, a lot.
IE: get Alex gloves and boots. Get law torso

Higher ilvl.

The alexander chest piece is boo boo for MCH. Losing 48 crit and 66 det for acc and ss, no thank you. If Alex Savage needs it for the acc requirement sure, but until then, I'm sticking with my 180 piece.

Sure, higher ilvl with 1 exception =)

PS, where did you guys get such a low expectation for SKS?

Rest of the gear is fine imo, just the chest piece is bad. If they continue their current trend of raid gear being 10 ilvl higher than tome gear, then I would assume that esoteric gear will be i190 being able to be upgraded into i200, the esoteric gear will have the other side of the stats.

Yeah, I'm not sure how much acc savage will require. I'm also still not sure on the value of Skill Speed. We don't know if it buffs our turret damage or not. We'd need to do some parallel ilvl gear swaps to figure it out. The chest piece will probably be my last piece anyway. I need to get another lens and crank (which I'm going for tomorrow) to get gloves and helm. Then just a couple bolts, a chain and working on the last three springs I need.

I know one of the BLMs in my FC is avoiding his chest piece like the plague because he has to give up a lot of spell speed. Hell, even tanks are avoiding their chest pieces because of Parry, I guess. Chest stats seem like garbage right now.

Certainly not getting chest lol

Week 1 and Week 2 I will be getting Head, Hands, Waist, Boots, Wrist and Ring. This effectively lowers Skill Speed to the bare minimum and gives me will over 600 accuracy buffer for Alex Savage drops and Esoterics gear in the future.

Stats at the end of Week 2:

616 Accuracy
680 Crit
509 Det
422 Skill Speed

But I'm a BRD tho. If MCH:

616 Accuracy
597 Crit
509 Det
505 Skill Speed

The main difference between BRD/MCH is BRD's weapon have 83 Crit but this 83 points becomes Skill Speed on MCH's weapon :/

I'm skipping Alex's top and bottom. Esoterics has to be better.

I am thinking Esoterics gear may be ilvl200 and Savage gear at ilvl210. I don't think SE would hold out on Esoteric gear this long if it was in line with Alex(Normal) gear. Don't know, guess we will find out next week. If the upgrade items are a thing for Esoteric, then they would likely drop from raids or hunts.
