And the best Relic is...

[Hippo]

So has anyone run any parsers to see how each relic outperforms the second best weapons (currently the Garuda series)?

[XavierBlade]

I'd say probably DRG

[Meatdawg]

Pld = Drg > Brd > Whm > Mnk > War = Blm

Something like that in terms of usefulness, however the Drg is probably the best on in terms of Damage increase.

Wow, was surprised that blm relic which cost quite a lot turns out to be last. Is PLD relic good because of its damage mitigation or attack?

The Pld weapon is good because of the Acc. You can't afford to miss a spirts and you don't have to really sacrifice any other slots to add acc. The HP boost is great, healing magic pot is a + and the rest is just icing.

PLD is one of the top because it gets one of the biggest damage boosts compared to other relics over their Primal counterparts, has a chance to heal mp, spirits damage boost, a little hp and healing magic pot., and a solid +40 Acc. Throw in the Shield for its +25 def and refresh you get alot of bonuses that play to the jobs strengths and helps with their weaknesses.

seems like its hard to see the MP proc on BLM so underwelming so far from other members experiences.

for me its a downgrade since I currently have:
48INT
20AMP
12lightning AMP
+ 5macc from wood shield (no grid)

If i were to use stardust I'd be
-3INT
-2AMP (for lightning and +10 for all else)
-5macc
+conserve MP50
+1-5% crit depeding on the target mob probably 2-3% on targets that mater.

It would cost me at least 20M & at least 30 hours of farming/killing not to mention another round of av/cc speeds and all the other parts to it.

Agree with this, it's a downgrade from triple melded 1h weapon.

P.S. Conserve MP make me loss one convert @ CC 17 mins run

What do you mean by that?

[SirOleas]

He doesn't have to use convert as often as he did previously.

In other words the MP conserve on stardust rod is = to saving 1 convert.
