    What does this mean?
    You will be able to get your character closer and closer to iLvl90. It will be a very good idea for people to get their EX Primal accessories, as a lot of these have become BiS (best in slot for maximum job performance). You will have to do your research to see which accessories are BiS for you. I can add BiS lists for different jobs as I find them. Remember that even though an iLvl90 drop may not be BiS, it is still best practice to get that item for the time being for the iLvl increase, and adjust the rest of your gear and food accordingly to keep your acc cap for Coil.

    Best Method for EndGame Gear Progression
    This is just my opinion, so I'm looking for feedback. This is the best order of activities for improving your iLvl.

    Priority
    1. Farm dungeons for Philo Tomes for iLvl70 Darklight gear
    2. Obtain Relic weapon by beating HardMode Primals
    3. Farm dungeons for Myth tomes for iLvl90 Myth gear / Zenith Weapon (most jobs upgrade weapon first)
    4. Binding Coil for iLvl90 gear & iLvl95 weapon (best frequency of iLvl90 gear.. if you're lucky)
    5. EX Primals for iLvl90 accessories IF your need accessories > iLvl70 OR EX accessories are now BiS
    Optional
    6. Crystal Tower for iLvl80 armor IF you need armor > iLvl70
    7. Ultima Weapon for iLvl80 accessories IF you need accessories > iLvl70

    I'm currently in full DL, Hero's x2 and Relic+1. I'm getting tired of being dressed in DL tho. Aside from farming Myth for my AF2 (which I will be doing) I REALLY want to start farming CT for the ilvl80 gear. I just unlocked it this morning. Anyone know how successful DF groups are at clearing this place? I have yet to set foot in it since I am taking care of my bebeh atm~! Thank you for posting this btw. This will help a lot of upcoming end gamers.

    Actually, ALL groups will be DF, because you can only form your own 8 man party outside of DF. You will have to use DF to form the 24 man alliance.

    I cleared the first 2 bosses on my first try, but it was late at night and we started losing too many people to complete the third boss. It requires more coordination than a regular dungeon, obviously, but the gear requirements aren't too high. I'd say that it's as hard as Garuda HM, at most.

    Statement: Check out FFXIV Gear Calculator and see if the gear you have is best for your build. All classes and all gear >ilvl 70 is listed.

    Since the patch is still new expect some fail groups however the mechanics for all boss fights (excluding final boss) is the same. Keep the adds away from the boss, npc, object. I think people just get overwhelmed with the chaos but when you get down to it its really very easy and as long as people follow that rule then you'll be ok.

    Yeah, there is literally nothing for SCH into this patch (except maybe the new feets from pvp)
