The build I just posted has identical VIT, capped accuracy, and +42 parry over your setup. If you really want to avoid the Twintania helm, then you should go to the Dual Haken instead of the Bravura Zenith. You start out losing 21 parry and 15 accuracy from the helm swap. Dual Haken will gain you a whopping 37 accuracy at a cost of 11 parry, leaving you at -32 parry and +22 accuracy. Roll back to the Allagan Flanchard at a gain of 6 parry and loss of 21 accuracy, resulting in a net +1 accuracy (already at cap), -26 parry. That's 16 better parry than the setup you posted, still with identical VIT and capped accuracy.

Gamemako is right, the set up he's got gives you the most Parry and leaves you at 471 Accuracy, which is no problem to keep over 475 with the new food.

Here's a site you can use to play around with gear: FFXIV Gear Calculator by Ariyala Ta'nya - Lumoria «lum» on Hyperion

And if you must use the Warrior helmet, simply replace Hero's Wrist with Allagan Wrist, you'll lose a lot of Parry, but it'll put you right back at the accuracy cap.

I like my war build for the most part might try to meld myself done new accessories since those are my drg and I'm getting af2 body this week

My question is why you don't choose to use allagan baxe, which has a higher main stats/wd?

Because when I set up the wardrobe I went with the weapon I have. My main concern was the armor set, not the weapon.

Honestly, since it's the only iLvl 95 item in the game, I don't think anyone is going to disagree that the Battleaxe is anything short of BiS. Perhaps we should just focus on all other slots?

Gamemako is claiming bravura+1 beats it out because of it's parry i assume

LOL!

+1 Weapon damage, +3 Strength and +4 Vitality, I'd use that any day over the Bravura Zenith.

That's 10~ points of strength worth of primary stat boost, and more Vitality. No reason to not use it, and you can trade out Accuracy elsewhere.... Such as the Mythology Chest piece.
