I do really want the Ifrit lance more then my lieutenant lance (Will attempt for Garuda's sometime later) but it seems I'm running low on options for that. I guess I'll also pick up a Scarlet Sash in the mean time also.

Also I heard that the Officer pieces count toward set bonus, is this true?
Ifrit's lance, if you can get it, is definitely better than mogfork unless you really need the extra acc even after eating food (you probably don't in a full party situation), but the higher dps on the lieutenant spear (not to mention acc and almost as much atk) trumps ifrit's harpoon. In general it's relic > garuda > lieutenant > ifrit > mog, with skirmish fitting in there at various points depending on how many and which melds you put on it.

As far as set bonus completion, any green item you buy with seals from your gc will count toward the set including the weapon itself. This includes officer gear as well as things like the lvl40 m.acc shield (great for blm).
