Sorry dont know how to edit posts on phones. About the crit and det that should be for main gear but left side accessories should habe STR melded onto them.

Critical hit rate, followed by Determination. On the accesories, put Strength materia. If you play savage, you should have 705 accuracy. But you don't need melds for the accuracy.

You can use Ariyala to find out which stats are already capped on which gear so that you don't meld materia that won't help you: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/DRK

So no one feels that there would be any benefit to adding Skill Speed to gear? Attack faster, shorter CDs??

I was wondering about skill speed as well. What does your skill speed got to be at for endgame?

Well, someone else can better answer that question, and I feel that, due to the number of people who have commented and NOT mentioned skill speed that most likely it's going to be a No on adding Skill Speed, however, I feel that it could be beneficial. Faster attacks, shorter cooldowns, easier to hold aggro/generate enmity, and possibly a bit more DPS. Then again, I imagine you'd get even more DPS from adding Str, Det, or Crit which makes sense.

07-13-2016, 04:35 AMChrononsThere are some threads over in the tank section where we talked about this in detail actually. For DRK stacking SkS at around 680 will allow you to get the most benefit from Blood Weapon (# of GCDs in a Blood Weapon window). There are some who speculate adding a crap ton of skill speed will allow another GCD in that window, but generally it was agreed that it wasnt worth the loss in crit/det. Also, SkS can be important for getting your DoTs to line up properly with you rotation.Quote:
