Live Letter 3.2 tank changes, vit effects tank attack

[Alexander_Dragonfang]

? If weights are 50/50 why wouldn't tanks just use all Vit? If anything, I'm expecting the weights to be something like 80/20 so the intended (and only viable) patch will be 100% Vit. Unless you forgot, materia V doesn't add 60 of a stat (likely what we will see on accessories in 3.2).

Because some fending items have parry and accuracy which don`t increase DPS, so the chances are, tanks will run Fending without useless stats + Slaying for accesories.

Secondaries are not worth a primary though. So you would be better off stacking VIT for more damage.

Will accuracy increase dps? No. However, if you entirely ignore accuracy and don't arrive at a decent accuracy stat, you're going to start missing attacks which in turn affects damage. So, in a sense accuracy ensures you can do damage.

Nobody's ever debated that Accuracy is useful to a point.

Parry is the mother of all bad stats, though. x_x

I was replying to the previous poster who made it sound as if accuracy was a bad thing (intended or not).

I don't understand what the use of parry for WAR. It doesn't do skill like PLD's Shield Swipe. Also WAR already have Raw Intuition for 100% parry :/

Of course i assume we all talking based on some granted things, like, having the accuracy capped first.
