{Stormblood} Ala Mhigan Gear Melding Strategy

[bluewindangel]

As per every patch, I've tried to figure out a melding strategy that will fit the following criteria:

1. No Materia 6 Overmelds


2. Capping Perception, then Gathering, then GP last (600GP still seems to be sufficient for most high end activities)

Tools: For now, just throw a Guile 6 in both your main and off hand tools. With these melds, you will have 1355 Perception, which is more than enough to gather the newest items (as of 4.25) in HQ.

Hat: Guile 6, Guerdon 6, Guile 5, Guile 5, Guile 5
(caps Perception and Gathering, misses 6 GP)

Top: Guerdon 6, Guile 6, Guerdon 5, Guerdon 5, Guile 5
(Perception is capped. Misses 8 Gathering and 1 GP)

Gloves: Guile 6, Guerdon 6, Guerdon 5, Guerdon 5, Grasp 1
(fully capped)

Belt (Gazelleskin Belt): Grasp 5, Guile 4, Guerdon 4, Guerdon 4, Guile 1
(fully capped)

Pants: Guerdon 5, Guerdon 5, Guile 1, Guerdon 1, Grasp 1
(fully capped)

Boots: Guile 6, Grasp 5, Guile 2, Guile 1, Guerdon 1
(fully capped)

Ears/Neck/Wrist (old Gazelleskin Jewels): Grasp 6, Guerdon 4, Guerdon 4, Guile 4, Guile 4
(missing 3 GP)

Rings: Grasp 5, Guerdon 4, Guerdon 4, Guile 4, Guile 4
(fully capped)

Without food, according to Ariyala's website, your final stats with these melds should be 1389 Gathering, 1355 Perception and 723 GP without food. Click here for the list I compiled on Ariyala's site.

Once again, best of luck with those overmelds!
