Hey everyone! When it comes to gear optimization in FFXIV, it’s important to prioritize your stats based on your job role. Make sure to focus on main stats like Strength for physical DPS, Intelligence for magical DPS, Vitality for tanks, and Mind for healers.

Additionally, pay attention to secondary stats like Critical Hit Rate, Direct Hit Rate, Determination, and Skill Speed. These can vary in importance depending on your job, so do some research or ask for advice from your fellow raiders.

Don’t forget about melding materia to your gear for extra stat boosts! This can really make a difference in your overall performance during raids. And always keep an eye out for new gear upgrades from raids, dungeons, and tomestones to keep improving your character. Happy raiding!
