They really need to make melding more simple.
Anyways, just confirming with all you awsome guys in this forums:
It seems now that my DPS scales with Vit as well? No more slaying gear, right?
So add vit melds untill cap then go to STR?
If both capped go for crit?
Thank you for your confirmations!
i220s above will want you to meld. You can't add primary stats to your LHS gear (main), that's only for the likes of Crits/Det/SkS/Accuracy. Accessories have the flexibility to get primary stats on the only guaranteed slot, so off that you go with the default Fending accessories and put 1 STR materia each depending on your budget. You can't add anymore Vit melds since they are all capped no matter what, unless if you go Slaying (highly not recommended).
Note: Crafted gear can have 5 melds each. Accessories still get 1 main stat slot, the rest will have to be secondaries.
Since 3.2 Vit=Str so no more slaying accessories... (Dont forget to change your attributes as well)
Green materia slots =100% chance to meld
First Meld in accessories should be Str V.
If you decide to meld crit, i recommend using Tier IV as it is much cheaper than Tier V and the difference is minimal (IV->9 , V->12). Same goes for accuracy and sks.
For determination, Tier V gives double the amount (IV->6 , V->12) so you might want to go for it.
I recommend also using Tier IV materia to i220 armor as a start to get some extra bonus with low cost then meld Tier V in <i230.
Unlock latest 24 man raid (Weeping City of Mhach) -> weekly prize is one Tier V materia of your choice.
You can use ariyala's website to plan your melds beforehand and avoid melding above cap. If you decide to change smth after you meld you will lose all previous melds on that piece so its important.
Oh and welcome back!!! :D
Thank you all.
I actually was full STR status wise due to all AS madness before patch. Good to be tanky again!
