it's like 3.6 str and it's going to be way more than 7m in melds

those rings and choker will cost you like 15mil each to meld on average at gilgamesh prices and the earrings will probably be around 7mil.

so like 52 mil for 3.6 str, ya that sounds mega sketch.

Would using the earrings only create a set with more stat weights?

Yeah, anything where you have to chance DET melds and to a very slightly lesser degree CRIT is going to run you some astronomical prices unless you're really lucky. Hell my belt cost me around 6 million and I got the second DET meld on the first shot. 28 Acc IV's to get two successes. I would say shoutout for Gilgamesh...but materia prices do suck so bad here, but I imagine there's other servers as bad or even worse.

ah, i just meant for one piece. overall if you had more piece the str (and gil cost) would add up yeah

i was comparing platinum earrings vs augmented ironworks (since i was about to buy those but held off after seeing the stats)

with iv crit/crit/acc/acc/sks, compared to the ironworks augmented earrings its

-5 str -4 acc +3 crit (0.699) +13 det (4.251) +9 skillspeed (1.782) - 1.732 effective str. if you're somewhat sane and just did quickarm 3, it's 6.138 difference. the -4 accuracy doesn't matter for me, since my end set was gonna have +5 extra over cap anyway, so it works out

edit:

for bracelets, the difference compared to augmented ironworks again, with crit/crit/det/det/sks iv

-5 str -4 acc +18 crit (4.194) +1 det (0.327) +6/9 skillspeed (1.188/1.782) = +0.709 str or 1.303 with quickarm iv last meld

for necklace, difference compared to dreadwyrm

-5 str +6/9 acc -4 crit (-0.932) +1 det (0.327) +19 skillspeed (3.762) = -1.843 str without factoring in the ACC

rings can have variable melds so that's too much work for me w
