The Edengrace Earrings, Augmented Deepshadow Necklace and Augmented Deep Shadow Ring all can cap Tenacity with 1 Battledance VIII each leaving on empty slot.



The gap is actually 121. The secondary stat caps on the highest Tenacity pieces cause the Head, Hands, Ears, Neck and one of the Rings to lose loose out on a total of 85 secondary stat when fully melded with Battledance materia. The remaining 36 secondary stat was from a typo where I post 740 SkS instead of 704 SkS.
"704 Skillspeed" "Nothing else to waste a stat on so the Tenacity build dumps it on Direct Hit" Yeah doesn't make sense, just like the rest of the Direct Hit melds on Tank fans xD.

Your trading in 1-3% DPS increase on the parser for Mitigation/Self Heal/Damage. That random Pug Healer you met 10 seconds ago has to carry the slack and heal you harder just because you want to DPS more.

Just now on Eden normal floor 3, i had to heal a Offtank Dark since he's taking so much damage as a PLD since he's taking so much damage. He's so focused on not getting beat by a tank loaded with Tenacity he forgot to mechanics.
