The main reason I love the topaz is because of the big parry boost, as it's your only defense (you can't block) and they have made the final content in such a way you will be tanking at some point on something every fight.

They is exactly one reason to get Topaz over ruby and that is the cost.

The SS is very important for WAR so you can get over 400 and fit in 9 hits during zerk. (390 is the minimum but a lot recommend 420)

You don't run out of TP because of SS you run out of TP because the fight is long.
