Best gear for Conj

I hooked up my arc and now I need to hook up my conj. Does anyone know the best gear set up for conj?

The Felt gear, with Boarskin of the element hands, Raptorskin belt, and Wizard pattens, cause most shoes suck.

Awesome, thanks =D

No problem, but you must make it a color other than red. There can only be one Red Wizard!

>.> Meh, not on my server xD

I would wait until next patch... unless you can make it yourself and you have the materia to spare.

New colors and new synths

That stuff isn't really BiS. To consider BiS for CNJ you have to consider it's future as WHM. So for CNJ/WHM BiS the gear should be as follows:

Weapon: Jade Crook melded with MND Materia
Head: Felt Coif of Casting melded with either MND or Healing Potency Materia
Body: Sorcerer's Robe or Felt Robe of the Mind melded with MP Materia
Hands: Boarskin Ringband of [w/e element] melded with Magic Crit. Potency Materia
Waist: Raptorskin Satchel Belt melded with either -Enmity or MP Materia
Legs: Felt Gaskins melded with MND+PIE Materia
Feet: Peisteskin Crakows melded with HP Materia

The Dev's have already stated that the gear stats aren't going to change, just the names and recipes. So it's easy to tell what the updated versions are going to be named.

What's the best gear now with non-meldable GC gear? Any changes?

Very nice, although I also use a vit body + vit rings and swap them out with a macro for buffs.

Bleh, the above is outdated now. Look forward to the upcoming CNJ/WHM guide by The Order of the Blue Garter @ www.bluegarterls.com

I tried to see on this website the gear you posted but i cant find it :'(
Even if i creat an account, i still see "reserved" (on http://www.bluegarterls.com/tutorial...urerwhite-mage )

Is there an other page where i can find your gear suggestion ?

(forum bug, can delete this second message)

^^ We haven't finished it yet. Still doing some last minute tests and writing it up all nice and neatly.

thank you for the work ^^

Actus, is BG also considering that when patch 1.21 comes out, there will be rare/ex WHM gear? I know we don't know the stats on it at the moment, but I'm thinking our WHM gear (esp since SE says it'll be hard to get) will be our better healer gear for the most part. Also, is BG coming up with a CNJ soloing/nuking gear setup? I'm kinda waiting until all the numbers are crunched before I seek out my better gears. -KK

Thanks for the link Actus! I've been following BG for several years now and it has always been my go to site for information. It's amazing how much BG grew. Will definitely contribute anything I can.

Wand of Tides \ Jade Crook with Mind
Felt Hat of the Mind with Mind Materia
Felt Robe of the Mind with Piety Materia
Boarskin Ringband of Tides with Mag Critical
Raptorskin Satchel Belt with Touch of Serenity Materia
Felt Gaskins with Vestryman's Faith Materia
Mahogany Pattens with HP Materia

I think thats a good build for CNJ but i havent played much.

Felt Coif of Casting is BiS for WHM. But other than that you're about right.

Why piety and not MP or VIT (for lolbuff) on body ?

Also why Boarskin Ringband of Tides ? Cure is not a water spell for that i read on this forum and we dont have a water based nuke, why not use an other element like wind/earth/fire/thunder/ice ?

PIE helps the added DoT from Aero (which seems to be pretty nice from my experience) and the Magic Evasion down from Stone land. It also makes you resist spells/enfeebles slightly more often, of course HP/MP/VIT would probably be perfectly fine too, but I personally think PIE is very useful since I like to keep at the very least the DoT on enemies at all times. I do also think the Boarskin Ringband of X is up to your discretion since the +3 elemental potency is quite small, and, like you said, Water doesn't help Cures.

I've actually been curious about Repose, I read somewhere that it was a Water spell. I should test it out with a wand of tides and see if it does anything.

Honestly, there is very little you can do wrong when gearing up your CNJ/THM as most gear you can use at high levels will have beneficial stats or in some cases you only have 1-2 options in a slot. Materia is mostly up to how you want to play, CNJ can easily go either nuking or healing or balanced, switching off head/mainhand/accessories for whatever the situation calls for. We're getting WHM armor eventually and I figured that would be covering healing stats, so I've been worrying more about my nuking pieces.

thanks for the answer ^^

Two questions:

1) why Boarskin Ringband of "Tides" instead of "Gales" or "Tremors" since Cnj has Aero and Earth magics? does Water influence Cure?

2) Wouldn't "Wool Cowl" be better (even without head equipped) then "Felt Robe of the Mind" + "Felt Hat of the Mind"?
You'll have -2mnd, -4M.Eva, -54mp and -6M.Acc, but have the +4Pty and +10Healing M. Potency, instead.



Thank you,
Gue.

1) Water doesn't influence any current CNJ spells. You should go with the Ringband of Gales or Tremors, yes.

2) Wool Cowl isn't a bad Choice but having the felt robe of the mind + felt hat of the mind, along with 1 Mind materia in the head slot, will most likely match the healing potency given to you by the Robe, and having those two with a healing potency materia on the head slot will definitely beat it. Along with that, you get the M eva, MP, and M Acc back that the Wool Cowl alone doesn't give. The Piety on the cowl isn't bad but you could just put PIE materia on your robe.

Felt Bliauds are also a good choice for the body slot as they give INT, MND, and Magic Accuracy so they're more well-rounded where the Felt Robes make you choose between helping your healing or helping your nuking.

Also, FYI, mid-battle swapping doesn't help since as far as I know, your gear changes don't take effect until you are no longer in combat.

Actually, it simply won't let you change your equipment until you are out of combat.

I've always been able to change everything but my weapons out during combat (assuming they're of a different class, same-class weapons should still be interchangeable).

Now that I think about it... it's actually true... disregard my last post. o_O;;

I'm curious if gear swaps really become active stat-wise only after you're out of combat though.

I do remember there being a debuff before when switching gear in-combat. I don't think I've seen it for a long while though, and I gear-swap on moogle all the time to nuke in first/last parts of the fight where little healing is needed. Mebe they took the debuff out in a patch or something o.O
