i100/110 BLM Gear, What's the deal?

[Goldhawk]

I just got done looking at i100/110 gear (weathered/nonweathered gear and coil gear) and I'm wondering what the point beyond these sets are other than typical boost in vitality, int and defenses.

I just looked at the weathered soldiery gear and it's awful. crit goes up by 47, det goes up by 58 yeah that's all nice and dandy but accuracy goes down (which is what you need for coil) and spell speed absolutely plummets.

I've looked at both i110 sets and some pieces have good stats and others will make certain stats drop like a rock. Am i missing something here?

never mind

No one? 10char

I'm with you here. I gain a massive crit boost from the soldiery gear, but I lose so much accuracy I couldn't do t1. It's so unbalanced. I haven't looked at the high allagan for blm however, maybe it will make up for it.

Supplement the acc with coil gear.

That is when mix and match come into play. You don't want to have a full set of pure Weathered or High Allagant, as is the same with a pure set of Myth Gear vs Allagant Gear, either way they are both awful in the stats. Always mix and match, my friend, always and that is always the rule of thumb, the golden and absolute rule

As for me, I always keep my acc above 450 for BLM (455 cap for t6), then browse around and purchase anything that can either increase my acc (so I can drop one of the i90 which has acc stats in it for others piece for more Critical rate and Determination), or increase my Determination and Critical rate while switching other piece around for more acc to make up if I do have other Acc pieces. Because I have all items drop from t1 to t4, so gearing my Blm is a pleasant so far

Yeah my acc for blm is not high enough for even T4 atm. Have a few pieces of myth (gloves, shoes) The rest is all ct gear (except the weathered hat)
I suspect all weathered gear you loose accuracy as when i got the chest piece for my Bard i lost about 28 accuracy from when i had myth gear but gained determination.

I have had no problem hitting the acc caps for T6-8, and even currently have enough for T9 if I change the raid food I use. With some high allagan jewelry and the weathered blm weapon (not even upgraded) you should have absolutely no problem hitting the acc cap for T9 unbuffed.

Buy the i90 hq pants and overmeld them. You can make a good pair for under 700k, if your lucky and around 1mil if not. and yeah this game is not designed for a full set to be the best functional.

What IS the accuracy cap? I'm sitting at 458 right now and dont see any gear that will actually improve my aim.
