Summoner bis and stat prioritization...

[paradigmfellow]

Personally, I aim for Crit > Acc > Det > Speed. You need a decent amount of accuracy to hit things in coil... The reason for this is the 'gap' between Darklight and Allagan/AFv2... You really have to be critical about what pieces you choose to get as you only have a limited amount of myth per week.

...You can pick the [BIS] items as they are available. Unfortunately, you might not get lucky with drops. examples: ...Summoner's Horn is [BIS] because it has both Crit and Acc. The Allagan headpiece, on the other hand, has Acc + det, which I do not prioritize as highly. You may notice I am using the Summoner's feet (Acc+Spellspeed), which isn't ideal. The Allagan boots have Crit+Acc. I would prefer the Allagan boots... if I could ever have them to drop for me!

The drop rate and the reset time is on par with mythos reset. Although, I have seen players get lucky and have full Allagan armor. I am grateful that I got my first Allagan piece yesterday.

Hm, well that changes my gearing plan a bit but not by too much. I'm figuring I'll go for af helm/gloves/neck/wrist/ring and allaghan belt/pants/boots/earrings/ring(have). Chest, I think I'll just use my allaghan one for now and upgrade to af after I've purchased my other pieces.

Lucky! I want the body for my BLM once I get him to 50. The decision to go with the AF2 gloves based on the fact that you have allegan body?

Actually I was just trying to figure out the best way to make sure my accuracy is around the 430 mark. I was tinkering with a spreadsheet comparing my current and projected item setup and accuracy by piece/total, and AF gloves seemed like a better choice than allaghan to that end. With that setup, I should be at 427, so eggs should put me at or close to 100% hit rate. It does kind of bug me that aesthetically the af gloves don’t match up with the allaghan stuff though. :b

I was trying to sort this out as well, but can't seem to find a clear consensus on this. I Ran Binding Coil last night with my Acc at 392, and only missed 1 time. So I'm wondering how much we can skate by with if one was feeling brave. I also heard that the Acc requirement jumps up a bit with each turn, is anybody sure that's true?

I ran turn 1-3 last night and my Miasma 1 missed quit a bit on Caduceus. However, my acc was at 381. After the fight I was greeted with the Allagan ring. I equipped the ring and my ACC is now at 392. I rarely missed Miasma on ADS, I think I only missed once. Hopefully, I can run turn 4 today and see how I do there.

I did some t4 runs last week at 396+eggs and I don’t think I missed very many spells, but I wasn’t really paying attention either. However, I did start using cabbage instead of eggs to offset my low accuracy to be on the safe side (once I upgrade the stupid demagogue belt I'll be at 401+cabbage).

Got a question not sure if this is the place to post. I'll ask anyway Vanya casting hat and casting gloves what would be the best gems to put in them? I have looked and asked around but I failed to find out what. Any help would be loved THANKS!!

I've yet to get any drops, but I'm not really complaining. As long as people I run with are getting geared, we'll all improve as a group. If I was forced to get full AFv2 and Hero's gear (assuming my luck was really THAT terrible), it would still be passable for the hardest content currently available... just not ideal.

I also would like to know what the best melds are for the Vanya chest piece for SMN. :]
