    As Max said, it would be better to stick with PCC and Assault. Actually, to maximize damage at birds, you would want to use W. Turban and Dusk gloves instead of the Askar pieces, and Blitz instead of Iota. Maybe if you are mithra the dex from the askar pieces and iota Dex make a big enough edge in critical hit rate as to justify using them, but at least as elvaan, I find the extra 3% haste (while capping hit rate) benefits my Warrior's potential much more, considering double march and haste available.

    Hollow/Aurum feet put me at 115 dex with what I'm aiming towards. Not sure how well it would crit, but I would change to dusk if I ever get HQ. Of course at that point I would use wala and aim for v/speed belt. The thing is birds ain't the only place where people merit. Hopefully aurum feet would drop someday since hollow is easier for me to get at this point. Thanks for the input guys and I are galka RAWR

    Crits aren't good enough to sacrifice haste for. Get dressed in haste post-haste, mister.

    -movement speed is so gay tho. Those extra steps you lose can mean you miss a swing!

    No no, I meant he was saying Torque/Eth vs PCC/Assault vs Torque/Hollow right?

    I'd get Eth if you have Pld... it's bitchin', seriously, and PCC/Assault ftw.

    Even taking negative stats out of the equation, it's still the same acc formore gil. Toreador's is better.

    also toreador's give you +20 HP over sniper +1 ?

    Not that big but still improvement.

    Also best setup is toreador's/Mars Ring not 2 x sniper's +1 or 2 x toreador's

    Being able to use acc+7 rings when a job you're leveling dings 40 is a good enough reason imo.

    does it give you even or odd dex? I'm no expert but if the belt doesn't technically lose you an acc point if your previous dex was odd the -dex wouldn't count as a bad thing.

    Sadly, my DEX is even without it.

    Depends on other stats/etc.

    As a side note, -1acc +2str is better than the -2acc +3str of potent as far as tradeoffs, so yea...

    Does 1 Str give you an fStr boost in TP/WS gear?
    Does it add a point of damage in WS mods?

    If not, obviously 4 Att ftw, if so, I'd imagine the Str would win for Str mod wses, especially ones with pDif boosts, but that goes without saying.
