The staff looks so nice, damn. I have to pex my BLM just for it.

If the new cross-classed Hawk's Eye works for casters, accuracy won't be needed.

Lol. Are you serious ? It's a CD, it does not have a 100% uptime. Of course we will need accuracy.

22% up-time negates the need for accuracy?

Yeah because a 20 second accuracy buff is gonna solve all our problems...

What about the other 70 seconds it's still on cooldown???

I wonder if we need to complete all 3 WITH the corresponding job like defeat all 3 as SMN to get the book or we will have the option.

That's what I'm wondering, would be pretty nice to use them to beef up a job that needs it, and not one that just the one that's already up there. But if not..I will live

I'm already meeting the acc cap with my current gear, but some of the new accessories may mean I can swap out a few other pieces in lieu of added damage. One of the best pieces I see is the Tremor earring (acc+crit) and the Vortex ring (acc+det). With these in mind, I could swap out my Hero's belt (which was once best in slot to meet acc cap considering the jewelry available to us). I am of course talking from a summoner's perspective.

these alone may allow me to keep my allegan boots and not need to get the sorcerer ones.

You mean reverting changes from 2.1? If so, where people are reading these stuff?

The CT boots are...decent, I suppose. No accuracy but it gets some crit? :T? They look pretty ugly though.

Is there a source for allagan revert?

hmmm, am I missing something or they just have to want us to beat something that's harder than obtaining relic weapons yet dropping only weapons that are on equal weight to relic weapons? I mean, they are still item level 90... what's the point of killing them if it's not for getting better gear? Can we meld materia on those weapons? I doubt it, though.
So basically, we just go do extreme mode and then the reward is not even an upgrade?

The accessories are an upgrade, and the weapon can be an upgrade if the secondary stats benefit you more than what you got from Relic +1.

Not everything is "ilvl" those weapons have alternate stats,that will work with different setups.for example,relic blm staff is spellspeed focused,the i90 blm staff instead of having spellspeed it has crit.

CT robe is pretty good too, but so ugly..

If I did the math correctly, I can be in all allagan body gear (since they're reverting back the allag gear changes) besides sorc hat, have tremor earrings, vortex ring, hero choker, hero bracelet, hero ring, and be right at 433 accuracy with added Det and Crit when taking into account elder staff and the new access. Very Nice.

If only caster gear would drop more often in coil >_<

scource please. right now i may have to get the scorcers boots since im losing acc and i am already under the limit needing food to get me to cap.

Found it. Not sure if the NA notes have been updated but the JP ones have

Bonus parameters of the following items have been changed, but because there is an error in the performance setting, and will return to the bonus parameters before the change in the HotFix.

The problem is, accuracy isn't always the problem. Its that they loaded up items with a boatload of Spell speed. Why does SMN need spell speed? The new book is a waste simply because of the spell speed. if it had crit or Det it would be worth getting. As of now though, its not worth it at all.

The be fair, the Relic+1 also has spellspeed... but I see your point. The Allagan weapon is still the 'best in slot' for summoner, even after the addition of this brand new item. I can only imagine this new book would be a nice upgrade for new players or people who recently started summoner -- people who haven't resigned themselves to paying for the 900 myth upgrade to get the Relic+1 to boost their DPS to meet the dpscheck of Turn 5.
