Skip Darklight?

[Rover1983]

Thats funny that some people say skip the DL body. The DL body from the looks of it(I may be wrong, correct me if I am) has the biggest jump in stats of any of the pieces. On my server, I see almost every healer now thats running AK, getting the robe first. Wonder why that is?

I have 2k Tomes saved up, just waiting to pull the trigger on what class I want to gear up. Summoner(which I probably wont due to not liking the class cause of terrible dmg and boring gameplay) or Scholar(Love the support faeries group buffs, amazing effects on them) Or another dps class like a BLM if my Free Company needs more dps.
