2.3 BiS Bard Equips?

[Zerker]

491 is what a bard needs. Also think bard needs 5000 hp in t8 for homing + defensive combo

For T8, that's fine. But in T9 you spend the whole last part of the fight attacking from the front so you want as close to 515 as possible.

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/N825 is what I'll be going for. Auroral ring isn't that good once you're at acc cap.
