How exactly does the ilvl sync in Frontlines work?

[Myon88]

You know how most pieces of gear have one secondary stat that's greater in value than the other? The Gordian Ring of Aiming for example has (44crit + 30acc). If we pretend there was an item like that found naturally at i150 for example, its secondary stats might look like (24crit + 16acc) to preserve that ratio.

But the actual ilvl sync turns it into (24crit+24acc), which means you're getting extra accuracy that normally isn't possible to attain on a i150 item - it's synced stats are better than any item you can naturally find at that itemlevel. That's why I used the word "Boosted", but maybe it isn't the best word.

That said, that much is known and has been documented elsewhere (https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...ve_you_better/), I just wanted to find out what the ilvl threshold was to get both secondaries to the cap. There are slots for me (MCH), where the best-in-slot item might be i180 Asuran gear because it has crit/det, and the higher ilvl options like gordian/last unicorn gear might be badly itemized with acc and sks for example.

I'm a little curious though why I found the threshold to be i190, while that Reddit thread mentions i210 for the i150 Seal Rock sync. Anyway, I just wondered if anyone else could corroborate my findings; It's kind of quiet around here.

Does no one bother with min/maxing for Seal Rock? Are my findings so old that it was all settled months ago already? Optimizing a little, I gained like 200 crit and 100+ det and dropped a lot of useless accuracy and sks and the results have been wonderful to say the least. I wish I had put this set together back when I was running the lvl50 roulette for poetics for the anima weapon too, the same principle applies to any undersized PvE content.
