Remember that the first 341 points of Crit/Speed don't count, and neither do the first 202 points of Det.

So... why would that be? Det's the best, right? It's because Build 2 lacks 20 Det but has almost 40 of the other two added. Stats have a funny way of not really mattering that much as long as you don't overspend on Accuracy.

To the OP, just make sure you have your Accuracy and that you don't have so much Skill Speed that your TP no longer exists. Do that, and the other stats will be a-okay.
The stat weights used by Ariyala still are the monk ones and aren't copy/paste'able to nin. Crit in general is weighted higher than skillspeed because of how the stat scales, monk is an exception for this because of bootshine autocrit and traited inner release, so crit is rated lower. Nin doesn't have bootshine and traited inner release, thus crit has to be more weighted in the way it is for other jobs, which is way closer to the actual stat weight of det, while skillspeed is still as low as for every other melee class.

Big margin was an overstatement, but still set one is better and it's pretty clear by just taking one quick look at it.
