so sorry if this has been asked before, honestly can't find any updated answers,
can someone pls help with the best choice of melding for my GNB?
really have been having fun tanking and just feel like this class is what im best with
just don't want to mess up any melding on stats in the near future thanks :))
Yeah sure.
Desired Skill Speed (usually 2.40 - 2.42, depending on your speed preference) > Critical Hit > Direct Hit if you can't shove anymore Critical Hit in that gear piece.
And of course, always meld with VIIIs.
Here's a GNB guide if you want to read more about it. http://bit.ly/XIV50GNB
Good luck.
the meld priority for GNB is Comfy SkS > Crit > DHit, basicaly you want to have a GCD acord to your own ping to execute the rotation properly, right now it's around 2.40-2.42 for players with good ping, if you conection is average you probably should aim to a 2.39 or less.
for crit and Dhit most builds right now archive high crit with bis and meld mostly Dhit so the best answer will be have a 50/50 and you should be perfectly fine as long as you keep focus on both stats when you get comfy SkS.
for tenacity and determination you can freely ignore them, know how to use you defensive kit will grant you way more benefics that tenacity and determination is inferior to Crit and Dhit, have fun with the job ^^
Right now its up to preference. The current "BiS" of GNB is up to if you really want to focus on the SkS requirement to hit that last skill during No Mercy, or go all in on crit/dh and do nearly as much. Before hand it was getting that skill speed but its a bit murky this tier.
