After this whirlwind update the level cap has increased to 80 and introduced a lot (some might say... a plethora) of new equipment.  I've been having trouble keeping track of where things stand in relation to the best stats available in each category.  I think I've been long overdue to look into this myself and so I spent some time compiling sets of gear with the maximum possible stats in many different categories.

Not included in these sets are augmented items, items with latents or enchantments.  RSE is included for comparison but not totaled into the sum since it's optional.  There are also certain special items that shouldn't get overlooked such as the Serpentes Cuffs and Serpentes Sabots set (which paired together grant a constant refresh and regen) and magian items such as the Surya's Staff with +17% Cure Potency.  Thanks to augments, the best obtainable gear is more debatable than ever.

Obviously the provided lists are not intended as actual gear setups to use in game.  It would be just stupid to cast in a maximum magic accuracy set.  So please don't be as clueless as to blindly follow after whatever item just has "the most" x, y, z.  Hopefully some of you find this useful, at least until the next update.  Enjoy.

Even though gear with more basic stats like HP, MP, MND, and INT have increased over the last several years, gear with more specialized stats have hardly changed at all.  If you want gear with enhancing, fast cast, and haste it's still mostly the same stuff ever since Chains of Promathia.  As a matter of fact, RDM enhancing gear hasn't changed for 5 years since thePalace of Hu'Xzoi was opened.  Wow, talk about sad.  Sure there's the new Auger's Gloves and the Colossus Torque, but they are both either the same or less amounts than was already available for those slots.  Yawn...
