Novus weapon upgrade system findings

[Erudain]

Yes and I was following you line of sarcasm....

Does anyone think it a good ideas to Put Crit + Det on Novus Curtana, then Parry + Accuracy on Novus Holy Shield?

imo its a bad idea,
split 4stats on both so it match a crit/det curtana + parry/acc shield and save thousand K gils since you didnt use any tierIV mat.

Unfortunately, text is bad at conveying sarcasm, so I was just operating under the assumption that you were being serious. Sorry.

So I was wondering if I should go full 44Crit/31Det or should I do like 30Crit/30Det/15ACC for MNK? Also wondering if I should do some ACC cause idk how cheap T4 materias are going to be, Been having really bad luck on Spirit Bonding ; ;.

[Altimis]

For the best? nope

For Cheaper? maybe

Accuracy is waste unless you really need it

Well, if you do something like 31 Crit/ 31 Det / 13 Accuracy, that 13 Accuracy is basically "free". 13 Crit adds little total damage, so that bit of Accuracy could be helpful if you need it.

I've also thought of the utterly blasphemous combination of 22 Crit / 31 Det / 22 SkS, because the weights of Crit and SkS are equal for Monk and they do all help out. Just as long as SkS doesn't get too high x.x

Ive been planning on doing the opposite for this, going 31 DET, 30 Acc & 14 Crit as i prefer to have acc over crit for higher ilvl content - not done T7-9 yet so i dont know what my acc would need to be at to consistently hit.

Cap for flank on t9 is 495, front is 515. You might want to aim for front since there will be times you need to attack from the front.

Reading these post got me thinking. I may do critical + piety instead of critical + determination since secondary stats have little weight in the damage(heal) formula. I'm maxing out on crit for my SCH book no matter what. Lol I just on the fence about the other stats. Also do anyone knows if the faeries are effected by DET? I know they were for crit but I'm not sure about DET.

I've been keeping track of my Animus Bow Infusions as I go. I'm going Crit/ACC, as I've found that hitting the ACC Cap for the front in T9 can be problematic without sacrificing a lot of stats (namely, crit) without having ACC on the weapon (and besides, I may as well prepare for my HA weapon having Accuracy anyway!) Here's what I have so far.
