    K so, Resplendent!

    I spotted one just now, "Resplendent Gemfiend's Mallet." Looks like a 500, 3 melding slots... and gold glowie. So...the can has been kicked down the road, er, elegantly? When someone actually makes one, it'd be good to know of the special effect extends to the workstation. One other question - anyone know if the melding slots bump into stat caps?

    I am guessing english isn't your first language since it is hard to understand. The only bit I understood is your question about medling. The answer to is that you can! BUT there is a good chance you will waste materia if it goes over the stat cap. The stat cap is a hard one and can't be changed by materia.

    Stat caps are 6 CP, 976 Craftsmanship and 535 Control according to Garland Tools so you could use 3 Competence VIII or Command VIII without waste if you wanted.

    Soo you meld 3 materia, 1 is gonna have to be CP, and if the other two are control and craftsmenship... A tier VIII materia is 21 craftsmenship or 13 control...
    830 + 21 is 851, 3 craftsmenship lower then the Skysteel.
    455 + 13 is 468, control equal to the Skysteel
    Also -1 on the item level... even if you waste the highest tier materia... it's worse.

    Their auto attack delays are the same at 2.80 >_> You're looking at the auto attack damage rating, which is lower, due to having lower iLvl.

    This is my biggest issue with it. Resplendent are the hardest crafts in the game, which require the best gear for. . . literally the same thing as the relic you used to craft it?

    All for a glow?

    That you'll be able to two button craft in the next expansion if the glow glamour is that important to you?

    IMHO the resplendent tools were a waste of developer time. They should have done the next step of the crafter relic and made them better than pentemelded HQ Asthete's.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
