Re: Rutter Sabatons?
I've been told that the 2% Slow isn't that noticable, and could be used full time. I'm a DRK, and I enjoy my Scythes. DLY:528 + 2% = 539 That's 9 seconds between swings! As it is, there are times that I worry that I'm in the middle of a disconnect there's so much time between each of my swings! lol I don't want to prolong that delay, so I wouldn't use it to build TP. However I feel it's more than worth it for WS. STR+3 & Atk+5 would be useful, and they're "free."

Unless your RSE2 just so happens to have STR added on it, (Taru & Mithra RSE2 do.) then this is the best STR based item for your feet until Abjuration for most jobs. (WAR & DRG have access to Barone/Conte items, but they're usually pricey, and NQ has 1 less STR)

Now, as DRG, if you can afford Conte, knock yourself out! But I've seen Air Tanks for 50k. So even if you spend 150k to get the drop, while Conte are going to be in the millions. (Just checked http://www.ffxiah.com/ and it says they're ~6M currently on Lakshmi.)

I would find something else for TP build. I dunno what's available to DRG as an Atk/Acc item for their feet around this level. DRKs use the Thick set and I guess it's too heavy for DRGs. (I guess you guys can't Jump too well with heavy armor on. lol Make sense, but kinda sucks for you guys.) But if you can't find anything else more suitable, DLY:450 + 2% = 459. Not that big a difference as somebody already mentioned. I'd only go otherwise since I'm a DRK, I'm ~very~ aware of my DLY.
