Well in happy to know that its on par and alittle bit better with materia, im looking forward to crafting and farming the mats, honestly crafting and materia melding are my favorit part pf this game!


There's a major difference between being better, and barely better (i.e. FFXIV and most of FFXI's HQs). Your "better" is about as useful as the difference between a Scorpion Harness and +1 in FFXI during it's prime.

i.e. not worth the investment.

Tell me if your Garuda/Titan can beat that.

No, but you just spent..... what? like 5 million (going price on legacy for HQ crafted) on a weapon that only beats Garuda's Beak by 18 Determination, which is the equivalent to +2.6 Str

The 2 star weapons just aren't worth the effort. If you spent the gil, it's wasted, and if you spent ToP's, you would have gotten a much larger increase from buying a darklight body or pants.

Here's a handy guide to stats:

1 Weapon Dmg = 7.4 Str/Dex
1 Str/Dex = 6.89 Determination
1 WD = 50.986 Determination

This means that, for the cost of the weapon (125 ToP * 9 = 1125 ToP) you are risking getting a NQ weapon thats 37 WD instead of 41 (HQ), a difference of 29.6 Str! That's a PRETTY BIG risk for a VERY SMALL gain.

Thank you. I was looking in the wrong section at the Phil/Myth vendor. I was in the crafting material section.
