    I'd say that 6-10 DET is not worth the millions. Personally, I'd toss Skill Speed on it to make a piece that benefits Warrior as well as Paladin.

    Just put in two tier 3s (DET, CRIT, SkS); it shouldn't be too cost prohibitive.

    Here is my pre-T13 gear build with melded i110 accessories: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/PD0Y

    Goals met:
    1. Maximize STR and VIT
    2. Hit 558 acc cap
    3. Minimize parry
    4. Enough skill speed to comfortably hit 9 GCDs during Berserk
    5. Be as affordable as possible

    I don't believe in future-proofing this set because we know the level cap will be raised before anything harder than T13 comes out.

    Just use DET IIIs. They are like 20k each on Behemoth. 8 det is worth over 2str so its a nice cheap way to enhance the accessories.

    I'm on an edge, I'm at T13 P3, I'm Paladin and I have both 130 fend rings, bracelets (dread) and earrings (dread). I hope to drop Choker in T11 tomorrow (Both platinum scarfs are trash for paladin, with parry on fend and SS on Slay).

    I can craft myself all the accessories (Done several for my raiding partners), but still unsecure if / what craft for me. I was thinking about a Fending Bangle to replace Dread (parry/det), melding it wit STR IV, STR IV, ACC III, ACC III, STR III.... Is worth? Any advice on other pieces?

    I went through the same thought process. Been doing T13 for a month now, using all i130 Fending accessories. (missing neck)

    You only need 9000hp for t13 and I'm sure less is doable. Using i110s I picked up 90 STR at a loss of 400hp. i110s just crush out the other options. Are they worth the gil? Probably not since you are already clearing T13 but are they BiS, most certainly.

    Here the build I'll use for T13 this week:

    http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...acter/5098390/

    We had had shit luck for Fending left side drops. (2 belts, 1 body since FCoB was released)

    I dropped 11mil total on the i110s but what else is there to do with gil until 3.0?

    I've decided to start spiritbonding 110 BLM head and accessories, to hold until the expansion. If they add tier V materia at that point, then 110 will likely have a chance at turning into it. Worst case scenario I get a ton of TIV out of it.

    That's a good idea. I should do another Wootz set or two to be ready. They will have to change the material system since IVs won't cover the stat growth. They barely do now.

    TIV is enough for everything 110 except body/legs, head/hands/feet/belt you can cap 3 different secondary stats, and the accessories let you put in main stats.
