    This is just what i use.

    I found the magic number to be 444 m.acc unbuffed. I use m.atk food on Ifrit and m.acc food on Garuda. This has served me well but IMO there is no reason to over stack M.acc.

    For Gear i wear;

    Double Meld INT Felt Hat / Double Meld Int Electrum Scepter (If the Int value from the materia doesn't add up over 30 then its not a good double meld IMO don't settle for less)

    Double Meld -Emnity Belt (doesn't really matter what belt they all suck)

    Double Meld Piety Felt Bliaud (Their is debate if Sleep is affected by this stat, but i figured why not try)

    Double Meld Int/Mnd Woolen Tights ( aim for +12 or higher on each )

    Double Meld M.atk Mahogany Pattens (Haven't bought yet, i won't settle for less than +20 m.atk)

    +1 Zircon Rings / +1 Zircon Bracelets / + Spinel Choker / Mage Earrings

    Aubriest's Allegory Shield

    AF BLM GLoves

    Now this is my starting point. This has giving me 444 m.acc / 360+INT / 500+ m.atk ... from here i will start replacing these pieces with triple melds.

    Also for my baseline stats i stacked full INT / full MND. Why because you squeeze out 5.5 m.acc from that 22 MND and i can meld extra Piety to my chest. As for HP. You are a BLM, i haven't had a problem with my HP levels yet, don't get hit. Use Sanguire Rite to mitigate dmg when you do have to get hit. Also Nercogensis/second wind to get it back up quickly as well.

    If you really are worried about M.acc still. I carry 2 coral rings +1 just in case.

    You are not getting those numbers in all three categories at one time. Sure maxing each one out with different gear, but short of triple melding and even then its a stretch to reach that 'starting point'. A full double meld INT set (Wep/Hat/Legs) with rings just breaks 400 INT so not sure how you are getting 560.

    I'd Seriously love to see the gear of a BLM who can hit 500+int. With a full double meld set you are looking at 400ish INT.

    Anyway the highest evasive mob in game right now is Garuda which you will need 530 macc buffed to get close to 0 resist.

    For Ifrit/Chimera you will need around 470.

    For gear on garuda

    Double meld hat: 35int 7matk
    Garuda van: 30int 25macc
    Militia robe: 15int
    Melded Woolen tights: 14int
    AF boots: 9int
    Mage's halfgloves: 9matk 9macc
    Mage's ropebelt 2macc
    x2 int rings/int braclet/mage's earring/mages choker- 40int 5matk 15macc

    Unbuffed this gives me 399int 479matk 456 macc. buffed I have 406int 527macc and 490matk.

    Edit: To hit 500int you would need Triple melds in hat/weapon/legs.

    I figured it was a Typo which is why I didn't call you out. I just stated what was right so if you didn't come back to correct it people wouldn't see wrong info and take it as truth. This is the XIV forums after all.

    with your gear,you can do it with triple meld using +20 int
    hat will gain 25 int
    boots will gain 46 int
    change weapon to astrolabe and you will gain 55 int losing 25 m.acc
    change chest to storm sergeant's bliaud and you will lose 7 int but gain 10 m.acc

    Please explain to me how to get 46int on boots? and why would i gimp myself going thm to use astrolabe.
    To hit 500 with triple melds you would need to use max T4s on weapons/legs and hat. On blm you need at least 1 quad meld to do so.
