    Sorry for the tangent, but I disagree for current content. By going from Stardust +1 to Allagan Scepter/Darksteel Buckler HQ, you're trading a healthy amount of determination, a lot of spell speed, and 3 INT for a lot of accuracy, some crit, and the ability to block. If you forgo all accuracy choices possible in every other slot, you might need it on the Allagan Scepter, but it should be pretty reasonable to mix-and-match Allagan/mythology and get to the current needed accuracy level. Even considering the undiscovered Ancient Buckler, the Allagan Scepter is only an upgrade over Stardust +1 if you need the accuracy.

    Oh yes sorry. I don't know why but I thought that the Allagan Scepter had the same amount of INT as Stardust Rod; I guess I hadn't looked at it in a while. So you really need the undiscovered buckler to equal Stardust+1 INT and then you'd need to actually need the accuracy. You're right, I just had it wrong in my head.

    1-handed caster weaps always have less stats then their 2-handed counterparts...simply for the reason that you can equip a shield to get to the same stat total.
    Otherwise 2-handed caster weaps would always be the inferior choice.

    PS: Anyone noticed any difference on Turn 1 so far? My group won't go before saturday since we have a messed up schedule this week on some people.

    We won't know until after the hotfix, which may or may not occur during this upcoming emergency maintenance tonight.

    Hotfix is tonight. My group went ahead and did 1-4 tonight since we've also got some people with messed up schedules this week and Monday is our normal night anyway for 1-4.

    Guess what we got from turn 1.

    I'll give you one guess.

    Hint: Most of the group already has one and no one even uses it.

    (At least of our 6 drops, 2 or 3 were new for us and 4 went to mains so it was still a good haul.)

    [EU] FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn Hot Fixes (Nov. 19)

    - Items that can be obtained from the two chests in “The Binding Coil of Bahamut – Turn 1” have been adjusted.
    Okay so can people who are running Turn 1 after the maintenance, please post their drops from left and right chests, so we can get the new chest list sorted? Thanks

    For our run: Left = Drg Pants, Right = Casting Ring
