    BiS for BRDs in the current content

    Hello! I'm trying to look for a thread with BiS for BRDs, I found one but after reading all the arguments it seems the information stated on the first post isn't reliable. (I won't mention the thread here, but I believe some of you already read it)

    So, is there anyone who can give me some links or guide me bit by bit?

    I'm currently using a 4 parts Darklight Armors (Except Headgear which is AF2) and Relic Weapon. As for the accessories, I'm kind of lost there atm so I'm using Toxotes accessories atm.

    I use this as a reference for BiS.

    I can't remember who the creator was when I bookmarked it; but kudos to him.

    One thing to mention about the boots is that technically the faction bought boots can be better than the darklight boots. As long as you have enough accuracy, they are at least. Just buy the sanction with them.

    Summary:
    Allagan Boots, Neck, and Ring are the only three BiS drops from Coil.
    (the Ring is only BiS because you can only equip 1 Hero's Ring)
    The Boots and Neck both drop in Turn4 and we're not sure yet where the Ring drops.

    AF2/Hero's/Relic+1 are BiS for every other slot.


    But if you're raiding coil, you do need to be sensitive to the Accuracy cap as you replace pieces.
    You wouldn't want to replace an Acc/Crit piece with a Crit/Det piece and suddenly realize you're below the Acc cap when you miss a [Blunt Arrow].

    Pretty much this right here. Combined with HQ deviled eggs, I don't think you can get any better than this. Of course, this is assuming you want to stay at the accuracy cap for turn 5. Some pieces can be swapped out for allagan to increase crit/dtr in exchange for accuracy for fights that don't require as much (titan for instance), but generally this is what you want to shoot for.

    You could also try for a max meld HQ Gryphonskin ring. In comparison to Allagan you would lose 4 DEX and 4 ACc but gain 12 Crit and 8 Det.

    4 dex = 12 crit + 8 det.
    So no HQ Gryphonskin ring is not BiS compared to Allagan.

    Until Crystal Tower which should provide more option, only allagan boots, neck, ring are BiS.
    AF2 is superior in every way.

    Relic+1 vs Allagan weapon :
    Relic give higher accuracy. Allagan has an higher dps on auto-attack and lower delay for auto-attack.
    However they both have an auto attack below 3.3 so Allagan would actually be a dps loss during Barrage.

    The point is that as far as anyone knows the Bard ring comes from Turn 5. So unless you have Twintania on farm it is the next best option. Better than Darklight as your second ring and for most players it would take a while to reach the point where they would be able to replace it with Allagan ring.

    Hmm. Might take a while then due to Mythlogoy limitation per week. Any other option aside from AF2?

    Edit:
    But since I need to reach certain Turns for me to get those parts, any other substitute for it while I'm working on getting each part?
