Gearing up

It is part of every player to strive to be the "top" one out of their class. Without it, MMO's would basically be completely boring as you wouldn't be grinding and such for that piece of gear you want most. Lately I've been giving a lot of thought to some of my gear, mainly weapons and bracelets. What I have now(2 slot Sig and Topaz+7) are decent I guess you could say, but in my eyes they are temporary as better is out there. Same with bracelets(2x BoF+3 Slotted)

I guess Bracelets first would be the easier thing to do. I've been after 2x BoF+6 for awhile now(I know +7 is way out of my range...so freaking rare lol...) If I got these, my stats would go up total as follows:

Attack +14
Attack rate +100
Sword Amp -2%
Min Damage +6%

Basically all I would lose would be 2% amp, which I think the added attack would make up most of(not too good with math leave me alone xD)

As for weapons, this is so much more difficult than the bracelets. I'd need a Slot Extender High, Forcium Amp Blade+6(I'd prefer +7 but that's asking a lot ><) and a Lapis Crystal Perfect Craft Damage+7 Extended. Pretty much the stats I would gain/lose are as follows:

Sword:
Attack +21
Attack Rate +84
Critical Damage -20%
Sword Amp +7%

Crystal:
Attack -12
Attack Rate -47
Critical Damage +20%

As you can see from that, the critical damage loss and gain balance each other out perfectly. If I was to get the sword and ended up not +7 it(I'd probably keep trying xD) my gained stats would look something like this:

Attack +23
Attack rate +137
Critical Damage +0%
Sword Amp +5%

It doesn't seem like a HUGE improvement but I would push myself up to 983 attack and 47% Sword Amp without losing any Crit. Damage at all. The only problem that remains is money... >.<
