Should I give my Monk Determination Matetia or not?

[SwarleyMcSwarls]

There's a minor checklist you want to go through:

Do you do extreme trials or savage raids?
Yes - get up to 698 acc (can reach that with food if you have a reliable food source). No - ignore accuracy.

Do you have maxed out crit on the item you are melding?
Yes - Meld det. No - meld crit until gear is fully melded or until you cap on crit.

The stat weights for crit, det, and skill speed are 0.297, 0.212, and 0.173 respectively. This is how much damage they contribute compared to one point of your main stat (which is strength for monk). So prioritize crit >> det > ss.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Swarley, this'll help me definitely remember this for Monk! Though how come we can't use strength materia? That just occured to me. Is it because it's our main stat and doesn't need anything to boost it?
