    Are you asking about stat weights and accuracy caps? If you Googled it, you should have found your answer on reddit (or elsewhere).

    Here's some links:

    EDIT: To clarify what "stat weights" mean, they compare secondary stats and weapon damage to your main stat to get a meaningful comparison. So, if you see:

    Ninja:

    WD: 10.775
    DEX: 1.000
    DET: 0.141
    CRT: 0.166
    SS: 0.074

    That means that every point of Weapon Damage increases a NIN's damage by the same amount as 10.775 points of Dexterity. ~6 points of Crit will, on average, increase a NIN's DPS by the same amount as 1 point of Dexterity, and 7 points of DET will increase their damage by the same as 1 point of Dexterity. Skill Speed is the worst of the batch for NINs (it causes you to clip your GCD when doing Mudras, which lowers your DPS and lessens the benefit of having more SS), and it takes ~13.5 points of skillspeed to be equal to one point of Dexterity.

    When choosing gear, pretty much every class benefits the most from CRIT these days. As a Summoner, "600 crit" is like having an extra 88.2 Intelligence when everything is factored in.

    If you're asking what your actual crit percentage and crit damage multiplier are, well, you can look for the formulas. People have worked them out. They're just kinda irrelevant - the stat weights are all that really matter when comparing gear and stats.

    Of course, these weights are measured at the endgame, and they're not going to be exactly the same on the way there. But, they're still useful to know.
