You can argue that, or quoting Heath Ledgers Joker. Let's put a smile on that face.
Crown of Light doesn't seem half bad to use with my Valor body when I have enough points to buy it later this week.
Do you mean Crown of Light? The Onion Mask is DRG gear.
Yep, fixed.
The new accessories pretty much change some BiS options. Gonna be fun theory crafting this stuff all over again.
Edit: Not sure on the validity but apparently some allagan stuff is being reverted back to pre 2.1 stats later.

It's in Japanese and it doesn't look like anyone's translating this. I missed the first hour and I'm not going to bother translating all of them, I'll just add in whatever sounds interesting.
Items
DL gear will be dyeable from 2.2 onwards together with the introduction of the Vanity system.
Relic +1 items have been renamed to Relic Zenith, because numbers are silly.
Materiga can be obtained from <i50 items. Chances of getting materiga have also been raised.
Skills
Curaga was buffed because not a lot of people were using it, and also because you'll find a lot of use for it when doing 2.1 content. It's extremely useful because it's a directed AOE heal, you'll be able to heal the tank together with all the melee DPSers at once.
Holy was nerfed because speedrunners placed a lot of pressure on White Mages to DPS. Healers are healers, not DPSers.
According to their numbers Summoners are still top DPS even with the removal of Thunder. They decided it was better to remove an additional skill rather than nerf Summoner DOTs.
Gil fountains.
Level 50s doing low level dungeons will be able to make as much gil as when doing high level dungeons.
Stuff
New emo. You can throw snowballs.

Also look pretty good for a Scholar pure Crit Build.
Just when my Scholar was almost fully geared they've done this lol.
Reversal of changes is correct, our Coil Static's BLM is going to be happy as the only drop he's gotten so far are the Boots of Casting. Don't know if I should wish for Tank items to go through a reversal, too; would be nice to retain the original stats for my PLD, but I guess I'll be turning my WAR into a DD of sorts.
New i90 weapons at a glance, and re-evaluating i80. Some of this is already buzzing around in a job's relevant topic but I like this kind of stuff in one place :V
Paladin
i90: Break Blade (crit26/speed18), Curtana Zenith (parry18/acc26), Direwolf Longsword (crit26).
*Think the rest of your gear is gonna determine whether you use Break over Zenith
i80: Curtana > oh wait
i90 Shield: Onion Shield (parry7/crit11) > Allagan (parry11/acc7; remained i90) > Holy Shield Zenith (parry11/speed7) >? Direwolf (det8)
*Though Onion and Direwolf are different shield types; buckler and scutum
i80 Shield: Titan (parry9/det5) > Holy Shield (parry9/speed7)
Monk
i90: Hellish Claws (acc26/det26) > Sphairai Zenith (acc37/speed26) > Direwolf (det26)
*If you have acc to spare, gogo Hellish?
i80: Titan (acc33/det16) > Sphairai (acc33/speed23)
Warrior
i90: Dual Haken (parry26/acc37) > Direwolf (crit37) = Bravura Zenith (parry37/speed26)
i80: Titan (parry33/det16) > Bravura (parry33/speed23)
Dragoon
i90: Gae Bolg Zenith (acc37/crit26) > Direwolf (det26) = Holy Lance (acc26/speed37)
i80: Gae Bold (acc33/crit23) =? Titan (acc33/det16)
Bard
i90: Elfin Bow (crit37/det18) > Direwolf (crit37) =? Artemis Bow Zenith (acc37/speed26)
i80: Titan (acc33/det16) > Artemis Bow (acc33/speed23)
White Mage
i90: Omnirod (PIE28/crit26) > Thyrus Zenith (det26/speed26) > Direwolf (speed37)
i80: Titan (PIE23/det16) > Thyrus (det23/speed23)
Black Mage
i90: Elder Staff (crit26/det26 !!!) > Direwolf (crit37) > Stardust Rod Zenith (det18/speed37)
i80: Titan (acc23/det11; 1handed) =? Stardust Rod (det16/speed33)
Summoner
i90: Omnitome (acc37/speed26) =? The Veil of Wiyu Zenith (det18/speed37) > Direwolf Casting (speed37)
i80: Titan (acc33/det16) > The Veil of Wiyu (det16/speed33)
Scholar
i90: Omnilex Zenith (speed37/det18) = Direwolf (crit37) > Cognitome (speed26/PIE28)
i80: Titan (PIE/det) > Omnilex (speed/det)

Feel free to critique, I only really "know my shit" about SCH and I dunno how current BiS is in regards to acc flexibility. Allagan weapons are +1 physical damage, +2 magical damage across the board compared to i90s I believe
Edit: One other thing to note is the new i90s (Extreme and Direwolf) are class-enabled.
possibility of BLM shield from the i90 weapon token as well? since the name is "Ancient Buckler" and not Allagan.
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...m/ff64db94fce/
also, Onion shield? lower block strength/higher block rate? is that gonna be worth using?
It's the Eorzean Database from the Lodestone.
There's not like a huge list of items added
