I'd love a serious breakdown of the 3.4 PLD BiS, so bumping this thread in case any altruist theory-crafter shows his or her head.

PLD is in an awful spot right now, I recommend learning how to play DRK.

Not really. I mean they offer nothing special in A12S but they're fine for everything else (and they're fine in A12S it's just really a fight built for DRK), and even probably optimal for A9S speedkills since you can Hallowed + Cover a DPS to avoid them or you needing to Mini.

Why would you imply it's not worth it? You think 600-650 is too high/low? You think there is a better BiS out there that falls outside of the 600-650 SkS range?

Ya, that's what I adjusted it to. I guess I was just wondering if neoxdeciple had an opinion on the SkS portion of the build since that's what his statement about "not sure its worth it" was referring to.

My DRK has 725 Skill Speed. But then again, I never cared about BiS; I feel like I'm efficient with what I got and what I do. No, I'm not doing 1k dps, but hey........that's what DPS players are for.

You know that 1k is on the lower end of the spectrum right? o,o

Also SkS isn't that bad on DRK (or WAR), it's only really a hindrance for PLD due to the TP drain.

Uses the Shire Chest instead, includes 2 slaying accessories and a max melded fending crafted neck. Overall this set has less wasted stats (No parry and only 11 Accuracy over cap) but has less VIT and Crit but way more DET and fairly high Skill Speed. The only fight I have TP issues on in this Tier is A9S due to the constant DPS and very very little downtime. If you cant max meld the necklace (gil constraint and bad luck) use augment tank necklace, its actually a little bit better by 1 stat weight. This set still has 1000+ crit no matter what necklace you use.

This Set maximizes Crit over all other stats, however it has the exact same total stat weight as the previous set. This set techinally has more wasted stats as u get 90 parry from alex chest. Its a full 100 crit more than the other set but is -70 DET and around -60 SS,

Both sets have same stat weight tho at 5316 so the work extremely well depending on what u like more. Crit based RNG dmg for stupidly big numbers or sustained DMG with a little bit more TP loss.

Before you beat A12S basically just have to work around having 700 acc
