What are you spending your Poetics on first?

[xvshanevx]

Anybody have comments on what WAR should spend Poetics on first?

My exp with WAR is whatever meets ACC > Det >= Crit > SS. As its been mentioned many times (that dead horse), Parry is garbage, so any gear with it has lost stats; therefore, find gear with the least amount of Parry, biggest gains in STR/VIT, and what can fit your budget when it comes to Poetics and FCoB.

>< FCoB Axe gives no ACC and a boat-load of parry. I think WD for WARs is greater than PLDs, so getting the the 135 axe is best, but 130 Axe with ACC and Crit for WAR seems pretty damn good too.

With that in mind (and back of mind being that 130 Axe gives ACC and Crit), unless you plan on downing the final turn soon, I think your best bet would be... helm, boots, and ring

From what I see, the Augmented Magitek Helm, Boots, and Ring are all BiS and can stay with you until at least 2.48. (Not including FCoB drops and crafted gear.)

STR ring? The VIT ring is very underwhelming. Just remember your left side gets you STR+VIT, right side is STR or VIT. By the time you are spending tomes on the right side you'll be over geared for FCoB (maybe not turn13)

Not really a tank but I figured I'd drop this here. Going for the body of scouting since my main (ninja) is hurting for accuracy. Also I am curious as to what tanks have to look forward too this patch since i play war and pld off and on.

Dragoon. Gotta get ready for 3.0.

Chest has been confirmed to drop in T13....again. So take that as you will if you don't plan on being there for a couple of weeks.

At least the poetics looks nice....

Confirmed how? Did the group that downed T13 get the tank chest?

I'm definitely getting the shield first, since I want to replace my Soldiery shield as soon as possible (I hate its low block rate).

Got the Shield Friday night. It was a worthwhile upgrade and it looks pretty awesome. I will still be using my Noct Hoplon for SR's and large groups, can't beat that bulwark combo!!! ST(single target,,not faceroll Syrcus Tower lol) tanking will get teh poetics treatment though. I am liking it! Once reset happens I am perma grinding till I get the necessary amount for the Helm. It's sick looking!!!

I'm getting the body. Bigger improvement and I don't plan on getting to T13 in at least a month :l

Reaffirmed my decision to go with the chest first
