i110 accessories speculation (WAR)

[stoxastic]

Yeah it looks like the Earrings and Bracelets are the go-to's for those that want 2 i110 Pentamelds. The Fending Choker/Rings have Parry which is undesirable and it's impossible to cost-efficiently meld the Slaying Choker/Rings with tier IV materia.

Dang that free accuracy is so tempting... can always just meld IIIs for det and crit and lose less than 10 basis points of dps....

lol had to share this, someone on my server bought 50 STR 4 materias before patch and now they are selling them for 150k each, 4x what they were worth beforehand. Probably an overall good move, but they listed them all in one MB item, so they have 50 STR 4s up for 8 million gil. Yeah... I think that's going to be a tough sell.

Fending bangles: det 4, acc4, str 4, str 4, det 3
or acc 4, str 4, str 4, det 3, det 3 (2 less det)
slaying earrings: crit 4, acc 4, vit 4, vit 4 , crit 3
or acc 4, vit 4, vit 4, crit 3, crit 3 (3 less crit)

Others: det 4, acc4, vit/str 4, vit/str 4, det 3
or acc4, vit/str 4, vit/str4, det 3, det 3
Sound about right?

Not a WAR, but I do gear my PLD the same way and here are my melds for my fending accessories. I melded them with capping Vit AND Str (not sacrificing a little bit of either) and then worrying about accuracy cap then the various SIDE stats. Please remember that SIDE stats like crit and det are called that for a reason and they should not be prioritized of MAIN stats.

You can't cap STR/VIT with only 2 Tier 4s

STR cap is 18, so STR 4, STR 4, STR 3 will cap.
VIT cap is 21, so VIT 4, VIT 4, VIT 4 will cap.

Yes you are right about the STR, but for VIT, I think 16 vit is enough, no need for 21

I am thinking going all Strength accessories since VIT materia is currently cheaper on my server than STR. Melds I'm thinking of going on Choker/Rings DET lV, DETIV, VITIV, VITIV, ACC IV and Swap Crit for Det with the piece with Det and Crit for acc with the wrist.

Thoughts? I'd like to not go broke but I think Acc is needed if I want to optimize my dps as a warrior since dread axe doesn't have any acc and new body from WOD offers Crit and Det.

Has anyone confirmed the Stat Caps on the New i110 Jewelry?

Given that, is it pretty much the same if we went with STR Jewelry or VIT Jewelry? (same amount of VIT / STR on each?)

No way is 6 Det, 9 Crit, or w/e, worth 5 VIT.

I guess if you max out VIT, you can go more slaying pieces...
Last meld can be vit III, you only lose 1 vit
