Blm gears Ss > Dh > Det > Crit
Effectively you meld mainly Ss and Dh, one slot you can put up det.
At least it was this way at the start of 4.0, please correct me if they changed it since then and made crit useful again.
Crit has never not been useful in 4.x. All they did in Stormblood was reduce the Crit Damage multiplier from 1.450 to 1.400 most likely because of how it interacts with Direct Hit and stopping it from spiraling too far out of control. The Crit Rate% function and how the Crit Damage multiplier scales has not changed at all.
