To reiterate, being able to see the huge number in your gear screen next to Attack Power is attractive, however increasing STR and INT until they reach their caps at ~330 and 300 respectively give greater damage output per point than Attack Power. Sure, you don't see such an attractively large number in 1 place in your gear window but it is what it is.
Like MW said, this is more of a personal goal to see if you can hit a number like that. Far from being an effective set.
I thought it was 350 str and 300 int?
I agree with everything Noctis has said, you need to hit the caps on str/int first then jack atk.
I have a pair of 70 atk gloves and a pair of 50 str gloves. I wear the str ones over the atk ones.
Testing has been done and posted. Kaeko and Seiken are doing wonders when it comes to demystifying the attributes and their effects.
I saw Seiken's Lancer and Archer stuff and have read Kaeko's blog and haven't really seen anything that says Str>ATK
And nothing about pugilist
In the Archer testing... 2 STR = 3 ATK, suggesting Attack is more important (granted STR is not a direct modifier on Archer)
On Lancer (Which still isn't pugilist but probably more applicable to this discussion than Archer)... I saw nothing that suggested that 50STR > 70 ATK
STR was slightly better than ATK under 290.... and dwarfed by ATK after the cap
IMO... test long enough to find the MIN/MAX only changing out those 2 gloves....
Do this on a lvl 45, lvl 50, lvl 52 and lvl 55 MOB
It wouldn't even take that long using Kaeoko and Seiken's Min/max rule
Maybe the STR is better.... But you just can't know for sure
