Hey everyone! When it comes to gear optimization in Final Fantasy XIV raids, it’s crucial to prioritize your stats effectively. Make sure to aim for the proper stat weights for your job to maximize your output. Keep an eye on your item level (ilvl) as well, as higher ilvl gear usually provides better overall stats. Don’t forget about melding materia to further enhance your gear’s stats. And always communicate with your team to ensure everyone is on the same page gear-wise to tackle those tough raid bosses efficiently!
