Sadly, looking at quite a bit of the dragoon gear it seems the developers are intent upon stacking heaps of this stat upon our equipment.

If you look through the gear sets, there are different archetypes attached. Fending, Casting, Healing, Aiming, Maiming, and Striking. Each corresponds to a class upon whom's armor it can consistently be found. Fending is WAR/PLD, healing is WHM/SCH, aiming is BRD, maiming is DRG, and striking is MNK.

While the accessories themselves are usually interchangable, the actual armor is not. So even if you're lucky enough to snag some striking accessories, you're still stuck with non-accessories that favor the Maiming archetype and by proxy the most useless stat for you.

How long do you think its going to take them to fix Skillspeed and make it worthwhile?
