So going from Omnilex to +1 = +3 DMG, +4 MND, +2 Det (whogivesafuck). Assuming those rates aren't bullshit that's roughly

+33.8 - Physick
+25.04 - Adlo
+21.42 - Embrace
+12.79 - Succor
+7.39 - Whispering Dawn

You'd need ~20 MND to meet that.

That know but i curently have the imperial dalmatica so by upgrading to the Argute I would gain

Vit +15
MND +15
Piety +26
Crit +24

Which gives me lower bonus for heal but more HP MP and Crit

Going by your profile, and assuming the critical formula is the same for both damage dealing and healing, as no testing has been done to confirm or disprove, you have a critical chance of 5.1453% currently. With another 24 critical, you'll have a 6.8085% chance to crit by adding Argute.

I'd go with the Omnilex+1 and focus on crit chance after establishing better healing. The effects of having the increased heals stated by Seravi above, from both yourself and fairy, will far outweigh the 1.7% crit chance increase you'd gain by getting Argute. Level out your healing first by getting the Omnilex+1, then move on to Argute with Allagan hands for crit rate. All the other stats between Allagan and Argute are the same/negligible difference.

EDIT: Wasn't paying attention and just noticed you're profile has you set to Leatherworker. What is your crit with your current SCH gear? My answer will still be the same, but the crit values will be different.

390

Still only 1.7% increase. The formula is linear, but at least now you know your approximate crit chance.

Would be les cuz I have +20 melded in my body atm

So argute would give me +9 so 399 Crit

**Ratatapa** · 2013-09-27 08:23

i might make a vanya robe to last until Argute in 3 weeks

Going from my gear, I am assuming similarly, I need to even out my healing? My crit is at 459, but I feel my heals are lacking ._. Some slots are outdated, simply due to lack of gil / Philos / not able to do coil at the moment. Advice requested!

I would say probably the same thing. You have a good amount of crit, a 13.x% chance, so I think you'd benefit a lot from the added weapon damage of Omnilex+1 as long as Seravi's numbers are correct.

For the scholars out there, what is your priority order for PIE, Spell Speed, and Determination?
Right now I'm thinking it's MND>Crit>PIE>Spell Speed>Determination?

**Ratatapa** · 2013-09-27 16:56

don't forget VIT

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2013-09-27 17:02

I'd evaluate that on a per-piece basis, because I don't see any of PIE/SS/Det as "I must have every bit of this I can get" thing in general. Maybe a slight lean to Det but again it depends on how much and you're already prioritizing Crit over these (which I probably would). Not a lot of slots left for you to deliberate over, right?

**Niiro** · 2013-09-27 17:31

I'd rank VIT 2nd behind MND tbh.

Swap spell speed and determination.

I know ._. I'm working on it! Leaving those for now cuz they have both MND and Crit until I can save up enough for the better AH rings or get more points for Darklight. I wish I had HQ'd the Robe as well tho ~_~

**DS31** · 2013-09-27 21:57

I have a quick question, what do the fairies scale off of? I've heard people say INT or MND, while a few say not to summon them when you're in cleric stance and to use a MND potion before you do. Is any of this true?

**Niiro** · 2013-09-27 22:04

Their healing potency is based on your MND, their HP is based on your VIT.

Buffs and medicine effects have no effect on their stats.
