    A side by side comparison of armor choice

    Hey guys, just wanted some input as to what you all think is going to have a better impact as a MNK, gear wise. Here is the total stats of a 5 pieces melded set of Gryphonskin I made, compared to the end result stats of AF2 and Allagan.

    Gryphonskin Gear (Melded)
    Skill Speed: 99
    Determination: 67
    Critical Hit Rate: 90
    Accuracy: 71
    Strength: 76
    Vitality: 86

    Melee Armor Set:
    Skill Speed: 60
    Determination: 32
    Critical Hit Rate: 36
    Accuracy: 83
    Strength: 112
    Vitality: 126

    Allagan Armor Set:
    Skill Speed: 45
    Determination: 26
    Critical Hit Rate: 119
    Accuracy: 24
    Strength: 112
    Vitality: 126

    Let me know what your thoughts and or questions and advice are ^^

    gryph is great but it lack str/vit and cost is insane so imo,not worth a full set of it.you can use few part if your lacking some stats

    af2 have hight str/vit/accuracy but lacking offence stat like crit

    allagan have nice offencive stats but lacking accuracy

    so best setup is allagan with few part of af2 to get some accuracy.start with AK while you farm for full dl,get your relic wep+1,extra myth for bis af2 and then farm coil for allagan

    Get your Skill Speed to 492-499 and then worry about Crit Rate. You can also use HQ Eft Steak to achieve this. Also, the best build is not by having the full set but by mixing and matching.

    Allagan Visor
    Melee Cyclas
    Hero's Belt
    Melee Hands or Allagan Gauntlets of Striking (only when you hit 492~499+ Skill Speed without the melee gloves)
    Allagan Trousers
    Temple Boots OR Allagan Boots (exact same stats)

    Striking Choker
    Striking Earring
    Striking Bracelets
    Striking Ring
    Hero's Ring

    Hope this helps on your quest to the top of the DPS chain....
