Xeno's I110 Warrior Melding Guide

If you are farming T13 and completing Savage SCoB already and you don't need the stats then by all means skip them. These are, however, a huge boon to the dps that tanks can shell out and for a static still progressing in FCoB, can make a huge difference in raiding (getting 4 bennus, skipping 3rd flatten, etc).

You get what you pay for.

Finally starting to make/meld accs.

The min maxer of side is screaming to put that last vit iv into all of my accs instead of a iii and MAN MODE this shiz! If you can make a mythic in ffxi you can man up for this! Dont settle. You NEVER settle! MAN UP!

The coldly logical and rational side screams 6% on T IV or ONE vit is beyond stupid. 1 vit per acc means jack all and you KNOW it. You've been running game formulas and calculating optimal stuff for over a decade. You KNOW this doesn't matter one bit!

But I know I'll be a little annoyed every time I look at them if I settle for a T iii for months.

HALP!

As a long time 11 player I can understand the grind. But REMs have been awesome for almost a decade. These accessories have a 3-6 month shelf life.

Well said SirTaint. That's my #1 beef with FF 14 so far:

* There's too much Vertical Progression and Gear being outdated every 3 - 6 months (depending on when you get lucky w/ your RNG chests). I sincerely hope we get more Horizontal Progression in 3.0 Heavensward.

Thanks.

Indeed. I wish there were relevant big grinds to go after. Making my mythic (way back when) was the most fun and satisfying thing ive done in a game (followed by empy, and relic lol). But there arent things to strive for in this game like that. So I just make multiple relics and penta meld junk instead lol.

Maybe in heavensward. One can only hope.

Thanks for all the great info in your tanking guides. I main healer (whm specifically but I use sch a lot too) but I like to tank sometimes as well, though I haven't done too much of the more difficult stuff just yet. A while ago I made and melded a full ruby set with semi-budget melds (acc IV vit IV vit IV on them all). So far I've made the fending earrings and slaying bracelets for platinum for the guaranteed acc which will save me money on overmeld failures. I did str IV str IV str III for the earrings (two det III at the end whenever I get around to it) and vit IV vit IV vit III on the bracelets (same deal with with det III). I'm just prioritising the main stats at the expense of 2 less det per piece.
