Stat Caps for 220 Crafted Gear?

Just trying to make a battle plan for how to meld these beasts, since you can't meld Mind V in the first slot.

Come out and spill the beans you magical data miners D: xD

Thank you

you cant meld main stats [vit/str/dex/mnd/int] etc in any of the slots now sooo

ariyala has some idea of stat caps check that out for now

I checked the site and didnt see any of the new 220 Eikon items D: Also you can meld Vit on a Mind ring. You just cant meld Mind on a mind ring or Str on a Str ring.

The patch notes said something different

Players are now unable to use advanced materia melding for the following parameters:

STR / DEX / VIT / INT / MND / PIE

do it just add +0 stat on it (then the stat is already on cap) or can't you use a materia of an already existing main stat?

You should be able to add Mnd to Mnd gear, but you can't OVERMELD!

oops i derped, forgive me

also while there isnt the eikon gear on there, you can still see stat caps for other pieces for ilvl's, while not accurate it may be roughly what you can go to

Well I already mutamixed my Tier 5 Mind away into *drumroll* Tier 4 wind. This is what happens when you attempt to meld Mind on Mind Equipment.

Just trying to figure out which out of Acc, Crit, and Vit will fit best with cap. Acc needs to get as close to cap as possible. @.@

You CAN'T meld a primary stat on a HQ item already have this stat... Because HQ caped the item !!!

On a ring of healing you can put EVERY other stat except mind !

Ok so everyone is missing this whole post. I understand that ... NOW. I thought with 3.2 coming out materia would change a bit in order to actually create incentive for main stat melding. These materias are no more useful than Elemental ones. I am just asking to see if anyone has figured out stat caps.

Nothing new, the ring is HQ and with that the main stat is already on cap. Was this way already since 2.0

No, the changes were designed to create a disincentive for main stat melding (specifically for VIT+STR on tanks).

The stat caps are listed on Ariyala if you click the box to not filter out crafted gear. In any event, you can tell what the caps are by looking at similar gear at the same ilvl.

For all tome/raid/dungeon/HQ crafted DoW/DoM gear:

• head/hands/feet have the same caps
• body/legs have the same caps
• accessories and belt have the same caps (but belts have VIT)
• all main stats on the gear are at cap
• one secondary stat is capped
• the other secondary stat is at ~70% of cap
• accuracy/crit/skill speed/spell speed all have the same cap

Thank you guys xD I ended up settling for this on all my jewels. Crit caps at 46 (+14, So I only lose 2 crit melding only a tier 5 crit) and gain 36 accuracy per accessory. @.@ Ive only done Earings/both rings so far, but Miasma hasnt missed yet with food. :D
