Summoner Materia Guide for Crafted Armor

Getting crafted armor made for Coil raids. Anyone know what materia I should be slotting in the 5 spots? ie 2 INT 2 CRIT 1 ACC? Thanks.

Which piece? Chest is 4x Savage Aim 3, 1x Savage Aim 2, Belt is 2x Savage Aim 3, 2x Heaven's Eye 3(if you need the acc), 1x Savage Might 2. If you don't need the ACC on belt, I'd slot Piety.


Those are the only pieces I know, since those are the 2 I use.

Entire Armor side Head Chest Gloves Pants Boots Sash.

Why? You clearly have DL which is the exact same or very slightly less good than fully Melded HQ Vanya. You will get drops and or AF2 and thus be replacing it fast enough that you will just feel silly for doing this. Wait till we get vanity slots and make a few NQ pieces like I am going to do if you are going for the looks cause that is the ONLY reason to use Vanya over DL especially since you already have DL.

Never stated I had dark light and post is about whats the best materia to slot into HQ crafted.

We can see you do in your picture. ^^ And I know this is about HQ materia melding I was just talling you it is pointless.

Both your posts have no answer to the question posed. And HQ 5 materia is better then DL. If you don't know the answer to the question I've asked, stop post irreverent responses.

irrelevant*

And I'd only use hat and chest. Which you were told what to slot.

You mean via this post which is chest and sash?

Wow IQ has dropped alot in these forums.

let me share you what I know.

for all jewelries and belt crafted HQ i70, the caps are 12 crit, 12 accuracy, 12 spellspeed, 12 determination, 9 int, 9 vit.

Ideally, you want to cap crit, accuracy,determination and spellspeed/piety. you can successfully cap crit/acc/det/spd with the III and lesser materias for the reamining.

for boots and hat is at 16 crit, 16 accuracy, 16 spellspeed, 12 determination. you can get all of them capped if you spend money for IV materias but I don't think it's worth it as you can just sacrifice spellspeed to cap the other 3 stats.

I don't know the caps for chest and legs and gloves, but I suspect that the gloves have the same tier caps as boots and hat.

This is what I did on my Crafted Stuff(see link)

But I am looking for advice on overall best in slot, is it all allagan and AF2? Or is crafted included in this? I need to know as there are no geared summoners on our server and no information I can find. I am looking for OVERALL best in slot guide for SMN

Gloves and Accessories maybe, rest of the armor you don't want crafted HQ stuff.

Mythology Helm, Chest, Gloves (unless Vanya Gloves)
Allagan Belt, Pants, Boots
Relic+1

And I still haven't looked into the accessories, cause I'm lazy.

I feel like with myth chest + allagan pants you are without a doubt crit capped. I heard 500 is crit cap. Those are both way heavy crit and imagine you to be way capped with those two. I have 505 now

There is no crit cap, at least not one we currently know of/can reach.

No evidence of any real cap, even accuracy cap is uncertain because it depends on the stats of the enemy - Twintania is above the so called "accuracy cap".

I can tell you at 442 accuracy I had no misses against Twintania, but Garuda-Egi had 3 misses out of 7-8 attempts.
