Possibly raiding on SCH now...

And Scholar :V. you don't need det/pie...

Lets tell the entire story though. I take it you are talking the full 1k SpS-build with the Anima, so from a DPS-build perspective:

But from an overall healing+damage it would the Alex book because of the weapon damage. I do agree the PIE isn't really all that needed this tier. Now if they just went with SpS instead of PIE on the Alex book.

The only reason the Alex DRK sword is de-facto punched out of BiS because parry isn't a damage increasing stat making the Shire Crit/Det substats come ahead of the weapon damage.

The gain through accuracy and extra Spellspeed is outdoing the extra WD (which is "only" a difference by 2) by a small margin right now. But will increase with the next upgrades.
And who cares about overall healing? That 50 hp more healing won't help you in any way.

Basically, its the same as with the DRK Sword its just one weapon "tier" lower. Which will change mid June anyway.
