Materia for Warrior

[Hanayumi]

Im assuming new War doesnt need a comfortable sks threshold anymore with the built in stacks, so what do we use for War now, DH still a no go?

DH is still bad for WAR since their kit includes a large number of automatic Direct Hits and DH does not scale the damage multiplier like Crit does. Secondary stats will likely look like this:

Crit>Det>DH

You are right that Skill Speed is no longer a preferred stat. You should not be melding any Skill Speed onto WAR at this time to my knowledge.
It does stink that WAR gear sets still have to be separate from the other tanks.

You still need to hit minimum 2.41 sks to get 4 gcds into BW/NF. Can go lower depending on latency. Instead of fitting 5 gcds into IR we are fitting 4 gcds into BW/NF which is a better since it emphasizes maximizing defensive cd usage rather than offensive cd usage. Otherwise its still Crit/Det. Sadly WAR is still odd BiS with the other tanks since it doesn't need direct hit, but the other tanks do.
