    Thanks for the video drop in the tank forums, Xeno - always like your vids.

    I, myself, have decided to go

    DET4 | VIT4 | VIT4 | VIT3 | DET3

    On my two accessories with Accur on them, replace VIT for STR for fending. I don't have the gil resources to do anything more expensive than that, espcially because I failed FREAKIN THIRTEEN melds with my first STR4 on my Fending Earrings. At an average of 120k a pop (including the ones I bought pre-patch), that cost me about 1.7m. I then proceeded to fail 7 melds of VIT4 on my str accessory for a cost of about 1.2mil. So far I've spent about 4.5 mil on melds on have a total of 4 done across my two accessories, and no gil left; that's not including the cost to get them made. Totally deflated, trying to figure out ways to make gil with limited playing time. Clearly my excitement for this patch and the new stuff, and my ability to appropriately earn gil and budget for them was askew.

    Yeah I can't convince myself to make any of these accessories. I could see doing them just to have something to do. (2.5 didn't offer much in terms of content for anyone that's already farming Coil)

    They do make a really nice difference in DPS, but right now I am feeling the effects of being on the raw end of RNG and it is devestating lol. I've spent so much gil on accessories I cannot even use at this point, and probably won't be able to use at all for several more million gil that will take who knows how long to acquire.

    I melded out rosegold/gryohomskin. I melded out ruby. I have thoroughly enjoyed the benefits they have afforded me. I'll probably do at least 4 of these. I usually don't do the 2nd ring and use it as my flex slot as I can use 2 dps options and 2 tank options. 4 rings let's me really fine tune my hp, str and acc on the fly.

    Yeah I have a full set of i90s and I have plenty of gil to make them. But they are useful for 1hour a week while I clear FCoB. (and even then I wouldn't need 5)

    i70s were excellent.
    i90s were very good and extremely useful for Savage Coil and FCoB
    i110s don't have any content for them and with 60cap around the corner may never.

    I feel your pain. I know someone who spent over 6.5 million total with some bad RNG / failed melds before finishing up. The New Jewelry is nice though, some nice STR / DPS boosts there. Congrats.

    I broke Down and melded a set. Slaying neck and rings. Fending ear and wrist. The items were gifted to me but costed 11mil to meld.

    Slaying are VIT 4,4,3 det 3 acc 3

    Fending are str 4,4,3 ACc 3x2 on one Det 3 x2 on the other.

    Puts me at 559 Acc without food so I can eat buttons.

    I made 5 i110 tank accessories. 3 slaying, 2 fending. I went with two fendings for cost purposes. STR IV was cheaper than VIT IV. I had a lot of Vit IV from before the patch (bought on speculation).

    All have max STR (fending ones are melded). The slaying accessories have two Vit IVs (not bothering with the last 4 VIT). Rest is all determination.

    I'm happy they decided to mix/match the secondary stats on the accessories instead of like the i90 ones. All STR ones had skill speed. All tank ones had parry, etc.

    Can't recall how much I spent. I'd estimate about 1.5M on actually making the 5 items from scratch. Can't estimate materia. Bought most of it before the patch. Maybe another 4M?

    I'm probably just gonna start with fending earrings and meld only Str 4 Str 4 Str 3. No fancy extra secondary stats, but the Vit/ Str/ Acc alone makes it a great piece, especially as an upgrade over Noct Earrings

    Think 6-10 Det would be worth the millions? I'm not very wealthy in game
