    LoL well I hate to break it to you, but you are not going to "break the game" with HQ gryphonskin stuff. It is hands down worse than ANY i90 slot. You can't materia in Strength at all, and there is a cap for Crit/SS/Det etc. for each piece so you can't just go crazy with all of them.

    It would be nice if you would share what these caps are. If it's not obvious enough let me put it out there now that while I may have been hit level cap shortly after phase 4 and then release, I'm still learning the limitations on stats and attributes while I'm getting my free company members up in their levels.

    This threads concept is to gather information on the limits and see where they can be pushed since I have been unable to find sufficient information on this matter.

    Anyone else have something, preferably numbers?

    So because he doesn't agree with you he's unproductive and shouldn't contribute to the conversation? Don't ask for insight and then get dismissive when they don't tell you want you want to hear.

    He's right by the way, you won't be breaking anything in full HQ overmelded gryphonskin except for the bank.

    With this character's death, the thread of prophecy remains intact.

    That's not what he said at all, you should reread it. he just said that he made this thread for the purpose of learning new stuff like this and that he would like to know what the actual numbers are. I don't know how in the hell you interpreted his post as calling someone unproductive and shouldn't contribute.

    anyways OP, as for stat caps on melding, someone made a list for the ilevel 70 crafting equipment:

    He said "Go be unproductive somewhere else". You can see it in the quote, he just edited it out.
    That quote is from a second edit. The original post was simply that statement.

    Sadly that was a horrible mix-up between entirely separate threads and games and websites and an embarrassing one at that. The reality here is that I just want raw data and insights to other player rations to minmax my pugilist/monk builds.

    I stand by the hypotheses that with proper tuning, a HQ Gryphonskin setup may out perform AF2 and Allagan combinations. While each HQ armor piece lacks 3 points of defense and varies in stat bonuses and sets, the over all build would look something like:
    10 Strength
    10 Dexterity
    10 Accuracy
    10 Critical Rate
    10 Determination
    10 Vitality

    Each of these would be built around varying bonuses but maximizing most stat potentials. I tend to favor Keen Flurry over Foresight in most situations as the parry rate increase for higher DEX may also help offset this builds absence of defense. I'll also mention that the "break the game" comment was a joke. For now I am having my way with stats and attributes to see what I can and can not do with them.
