WAR Dex and Parry testing!

[C-croft]

We know because we've looked at parse data between WAR and PLD. i.e. http://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIVTC/comm...in_vs_warrior/ I think Cormac also posted some parse data which seemed to go along the same lines (but with smaller sample sizes).

Plus there's no reason to just assume you get higher parry rate as one than the other. And to assume that we need to stack dex would be kind of silly as well. It might have marginal returns, but it's still not a stat available on any gear intended to be used by WAR (or PLD) so the idea that it's intended seems silly to me.

I agree it's silly, but that's what bugs me. The only reason it even comes up is the amount of parry we do get on gear. From the post you referenced, it sounds like they are just starting to test, and even then it's slightly off due to the fact the PLD still used a shield as opposed to leaving it off. IMO, DEX+Parry stack may not be so silly after all. Based on that testing, WAR still had higher Parry despite bearing stat wise equal to PLD. NOt saying either way is yay or nay, just that more testing needs to be done. Also, I'm not assuming anything. Merely suggesting ideas.
