BiS for BRDs in the current content

[Thorauku]

Hello! I'm trying to look for a thread with BiS for BRDs, I found one but after reading all the arguments it seems the information stated on the first post isn't reliable. (I won't mention the thread here, but I believe some of you already read it)

So, is there anyone who can give me some links or guide me bit by bit?

I'm currently using a 4 parts Darklight Armors (Except Headgear which is AF2) and Relic Weapon. As for the accessories, I'm kind of lost there atm so I'm using Toxotes accessories atm.

I use this as a reference for BiS.

I can't remember who the creator was when I bookmarked it; but kudos to him.

Summary:
Allagan Boots, Neck, and Ring are the only three BiS drops from Coil.
(the Ring is only BiS because you can only equip 1 Hero's Ring)
The Boots and Neck both drop in Turn4 and we're not sure yet where the Ring drops.

AF2/Hero's/Relic+1 are BiS for every other slot.


But if you're raiding coil, you do need to be sensitive to the Accuracy cap as you replace pieces.
You wouldn't want to replace an Acc/Crit piece with a Crit/Det piece and suddenly realize you're below the Acc cap when you miss a [Blunt Arrow].

Pretty much this right here. Combined with HQ deviled eggs, I don't think you can get any better than this. Of course, this is assuming you want to stay at the accuracy cap for turn 5. Some pieces can be swapped out for allagan to increase crit/dtr in exchange for accuracy for fights that don't require as much (titan for instance), but generally this is what you want to shoot for.

You could also try for a max meld HQ Gryphonskin ring. In comparison to Allagan you would lose 4 DEX and 4 ACc but gain 12 Crit and 8 Det.

Hmm. Might take a while then due to Mythlogoy limitation per week. Any other option aside from AF2?

Edit:
But since I need to reach certain Turns for me to get those parts, any other substitute for it while I'm working on getting each part?

Darklight in every slot except hands, legs and 1 ring, which can be toxotes instead and you'd be all set (AF2 will beat anything in nearly any slot of course.) Crafted ilv70 gear can be better than DL in many slots, but IMO it's really not needed at all and, at least for me, wasting gil on it is not very appealing since it's not BiS.

Real men wear 70 2 star HQs just sayin.

I find 2 star gears too fancy though, while it has a better stats. compared to Darklight, the time + cost seems not worth it in the long run. Oh well, preference preference. I haven't set foot in Coil yet due to lack of partymates, but once I tested it and DL works fine for me in there, I'll stick to it until a new set kicks in.

Real men use their heads and realize that wasting gil on gear that'll get replaced in 2 months is just stupid. Just sayin.
