i100/110 BLM Gear, What's the deal?

[Urielparadox]

Buy the i90 hq pants and overmeld them. You can make a good pair for under 700k, if your lucky and around 1mil if not. and yeah this game is not designed for a full set to be the best functional.

That's just stupid though.

That's just stupid though.

Most MMOs work this way. You itemize your stats around pieces of similar power level with different stats on them.

This is why Vanity slot/Glamour system kick in

I found the accuracy/critical hit/spell speed pretty well balanced with this set, determination is a bit low, but not really that badly. And gives you enough accuracy for anything T9 or under.

Hi, the weathered evenstar earrings and ring of casting both have accuracy, compared to the hero's earrings and ring who don't.

Its all good for ya, atleast now you know you can actually drop some acc gear for more spell speed or crit, because you want food up at all times you can even dive lower and make up for it with food. i do intend to get the allagan earrings till our group can down turn 9 and drop the excess acc i do currently have.

Best in slot with High Allagan Weapon

Anything that gives you Crit and Spell Speed over determination is better. The only pieces that you are forced to have Determination is the chest piece and the earrings (BiS earrings are T9)

Alternatively, BiS with Saurian Belt

There's been discussion that Saurian Belt of Casting HQ is better than any i110. Technically, the lost of 5 intellect for the gain of so much secondary stats make it better by 1 to 3 DPS depending on your food (Ponzecake or Sachetorte)
1 to 3 DPS gain for investing about 2-3 mils on one belt. I personnally don't think it's worth.

Hit cap is 470 for T9. Your BiS will always be a mix of Sold/High Allagan so yeah, you want to upgrade those 100 armors because stats increase = DPS increase.
