SMN Materia Melds?

[Xilibrius]

I'm returning to playing Summoner on my alt with the latest changes catching my eye. I'm enjoying it so I'll probably take it to 70. My question is what is my meld priority? I see pretty much all classes has direct hit at the top so I'm assuming that's what it is for smn or does spell speed have value like it does for BLM?

We do not have exact stat weights yet but Direct Hit and Crit should be your first priority as SMN

There is some speculation to get a combo of crit and dh up to 3500 then meld crit, otherwise direct. Then some say it's closer to 3K. So I think people are back and forth a bit. Anyone who knows more exact information may want to post it, I'm not a numbers person. I've been working between DH and crit. At lower gear levels you definitely see the boost from DH. The 330 creation body and legs will give you a big DH boost so that's a good place to start, the waist piece is nice because it has both. It's a lot of back and forth on pieces, usually one has crit and another has Direct and you sort of have to pick and choose.
