Leather worker 50 optimal gear/meld setup?

[Lysander]

So I just recently hit 50 leather and I'm looking for some advice on gear/melds that would be optimal.

Also which DOH is considered best to compliment leather with skills and whatnot?

Here's the materia stat caps for the best DoH gear (it's the same for all DoH).

As far as ingredients go, WVR is probably the class you're using ingredients from the most as a LTW (twinthread, etc.). For skills, I'd just take everything to 15 (if you haven't already), and then after that the best cross-class things come from anything that's not ARM. I prefer the lv50 skills from (in no particular order) WVR/CRP/ALC, but due to personal preference and different crafting styles, other people will tell you otherwise. The CUL37 ability is also a great thing to get.
