WARRIOR Tips & Tricks

[Kaalan]

For the love of god. Stop with that "put your point in STR" nonsense.
Anyone that put anything more than 5 point into STR for any other reason than just testing stuff just prove how much they didn't think about it.
Why, in the world, would you use any of those point (unless you need a couple of them to reach a cap) if you take any look at accessories ?

What does tank acc have ? VIT, which is great, Parry, which sucks and you already have plenty of it with the rest of your gear, and Acc, which is on DPS acc too.

So yeah, there's only 1 stat that you really need and is only on tank acc.

Now let's take a look at what you find on DPS acc that is worth something on WAR : STR, DEX, CRT, DET, ACC. Take HQ crafted neck/ears/wrist. They have 9 str 9 dex, 9 acc for necks and 12 for ears/wrists, 8 det for neck and 6 for ears/wrists.

So, this is a grand total of 27 STR, 27 DEX, 33 ACC and 20 DET, and 30 VIT with your point.

Now put your point into STR, what do you get ? Something like 30 STR, 30 VIT, 35 PARRY, 35 ACC. See how freaking stupid this is ?

Now, since parry rating is trash, you can apply this to any decent lvl 50 acc. Please, for the love of god, unless you're just testing stuff, do not put any freaking point into STR. And WORSE, do not recommend it.

EDIT : And if anyone would be like "hey then, why not both ? put your point into str and grab those DPS acc, yo !" Well with only the bravura+1 and af+1 gear giving you VIT, that puts you at only 401 VIT as a lvl 50 WAR, which is around 6200 HP, which is awefull for end game.
You need around 460 VIT to be beefy enough as a WAR, as I already stated, VIT is the most cost efficient stat to throw your 30 point at. So you need around 30 more VIT.
You have two choices, get 2 tank ring and a couple of VIT Materia, or, if you're really really really rich, go full HQ DPS acc and meld at least 30 VIT on them, but you need at least 2 crit materia per acc too so be prepared to use a shit load of money.
