Materia

Any Idea how Important Attack vs STR is currently for Pug.?
Attack can only go on the weapon, and hands for Pug while STR can go onto the weapon, hands, and to a lesser extent Legs (With the 2 stat Materia)

I ask this because I'm trying to figure out which one would help raise the dmg cap maximum the most, because I ended up making a Crit Attack Power +50 Materia and decided to put it on a Raptorskin Harness (Blue). I was surpised at the outcome. In stronghold you def notice the difference during Simian Thrash. Normally I'll do ~80-90 with like ~110 crits per hit on Simian Thrash but with the Materia on I notice it crits do well into the 200's, and was wondering if it would be more beneficial to do a str/attack hybrid. or mostly attack, or mostly STR.

Was helping a ls member farm Prince of Pestilence for his cowl and during the fight landed a critical Victimize II with the only buff being MI and thats with the Critical Attack Power +50 Materia.

What did you make this materia from? please do tell

[Shinun]

R47 Sash but Materia is random you can get a STR+1 Materia from same sash

Thanks Yah, seem pretty random, but also seem different item got different materia tables.
I.E. a materia from a brass ring will be str I, int I, mnd I, dex I or rarely acc+.
It will for example never get a status effect. (Ive made 24 materia out of brass rings in all)

My Simian Thrash is doing alot of ~1.5k-2k Totals aswell with that materia in Za'harak the crit materia really adds a big bonus for TP crits

Seems like Bloodflight, Heaven's Fist, Savage Might, Swordsman's Cry and maybe even Watchman's Vigil would be good for Pugilist.

Well currently I've went
+15 STR on Cobalt Claws
+50 Critical Attack Power On Rapture Harness (Blue)
+5 STR/+5 Dex on Felt Trousers (Red)

I'm still trying to buy a pair of toadskin gaunts (black) or Felt Bracers (blue) but neither are ever in Wards. Was hopeful that someone tested an Atk Materia vs STR Materia to know what to put on the gloves when I get them

I'm also trying to figure out what materia to use for my PUG. How important do you reckon +acc materia is. The weapon can't hold +attack, but it can hold +acc. So would it be a good idea to go fpr acc, or maybe STR for dmg or DEX for crit hit rate?
