This list I put together after hours of math and comparing items. Keeping with the 480 ACC cap for T5 in Coil I went with Parry as the best secondary stat for PLD. Another note worthy cap is 363 STR for an extra 1% mitigation for parry/block. Should Have around 8.1k HP with 3% party buff and food buff. (Also the T1-4 next to the item refers to the turn in coil it drops from.)
Happy Grinding

If I saw a PLD with 8.1k HP, I'd prolly shit my pants lol, maybe one day I'll get there! Good info, thanks!

Are yous ure it is not 7.1K hp ? 8?1k seems insanely high. I have about 5750 in full party with no food, relic, full DL, mytho hands and ring. I miss 4 * 5 vit for each accessory, 17* 2 for each body+head and legs+feet, 5 for belt, 4 for sword, 2 for shield, totalling 65. 65 * 14 = 910 HP. With food i can see you getting to 7.1k, sure, but 8.1k seems off by about 70 vitality, which is insane.

Unless you have new information about the Allagan Head, it does not drop in T4.

Not sure I agree with your Acc cap value, as I've heard a variety of different values from ~480-484 from different sources. Switching from Relic +1 to Allagan Blade/Shield will lower Acc by 1, but gain 8 parry. This change would still keep you in the target range for speculated T5 acc cap.

Also, where are you getting your math for the max HP? I would really like to see this, as my current formulas put current cap with party buff and food at ~6.9k. Would really like to see the formula that you are using that puts this up at 8.1k.

Edit:
Taking a second look at the numbers he came up with, I am guessing you multiplied the entire VIT by a certain value? This will not work, as the VIT:HP ratio is not correct for the BASE amounts. Take a look at a post I made in other thread for HP formula for BASE vit:HP. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...12#post1468512

I currently have Valor head/chest/gloves, myth ring, allegan shield, regular curtana, the rest darklight. I sit at 6.2k hp with food.

Yeah base hp calculations are all messed up. I did figure that base paladin vit/hp is 194/2214 before bonus stats/race stats. If you subtract 194 from the final Vitality, multiply it by 14.5, then add 2214 hp it should come up clean. That base 194/2214 doesn't divide cleanly into the 14.5 coefficient though.

no idea why it took you so long to come up with this I've had this saved as PLD BiS pre T5 since phase 4 lol. Adding the Allagan Sword and Shield to this puts your acc at 472 but ups parry some making that BiS overall. you could even swap the relic shield with allagan as it wouldn't make any difference considering this set has virtually no skill speed so losing 7 skill speed for 7 more acc would make no noticeable difference. All of my calculations were done with no food though so 472 acc + the acc buff from food would still put you over the cap

Let me make this much easier for everyone, so you stop doing this the hard way. Base accuracy without any gear equipped at 50 is about 340, +/- a couple points for race and other bonuses (my miqo'te has 341). That being said, you're trying to optimize gear to get a set that has about 130 accuracy on it, at least. With that in mind, go here see the existing BiS sets that already exist in large numbers, and/or make your own to play with the values:

Allagan ring has 11 skill speed, I know some people consider the myth earring which has another 16 skill speed. It could matter.

Even if you used all of them you are looking at a total of 34 skill speed. That's not even close to a .1 sec difference and definately not worth giving up 5 parry and 11 accuracy just from the earrings alone for. If soneone could find a viable skill speed set then it maybe worth it but 34 skill speed wouldn't even make a noticeable difference

If you have a legit max hp formula id like to see it. I did not account for the base hp value when I came up with 8.1k so it is incorrect.
