I am pretty sure no one in their right mind melds dex.

http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...acter/2983203/ this is what a t9 tank melds.

http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...acter/1792098/ this is what our tank melds.

so no please dont ruin your gear with DEX.

You'd lose 8vit (120 hp if im not mistaken) and 3 defense for the option to gain 21 Parry/21 ACC/ 21 CRIT/ 21 SS/ 15 DET. IMO the trade off is worth it.

Oops! You forgot Strength was a stat.

What's wrong with DEX? It's a primary stat the effects block and parry. It's funny to see Parry melded to something over DEX.

just wondering what is the ratio between primary and 2nd stat now a day?
using i90 instead of i110, you would lose 8 str and 8 vit , plus some defend.

from what you state,
21 Parry/21 ACC/ 21 CRIT/ 21 SS/ 15 DET

the only reliable stat you get form the i90 is DeT/ACC/SS, Parry and Crit carry random element and not reliable compare to stat like Defend and VIT/STR.
Unless you feel like trade 15 ish primary stat (STR and VIT) for 50ish lesser stat (Noct head come with 18 Crit/DET) and want to relies on luck, I don't see it worth it at all.

Because the % increase to parry because of dex is tiny.

It doesn't matter folks! Headgear drops in t6 so you will probably get it soon enough. I got it in my first clear. Lol!
