Hey guys, I was browsing FFXIclopedia and the BG-Wiki for details on stat weights in FFXI, but I found conflicting information (most likely due to game mechanic updates from retail FFXI).

If I remember correctly from the ToAU days, stat weights should look something like this:

1h Weapons:

2 STR = 1 Attack (TESTED)
2 DEX = 1 Accuracy

2h Weapons:

4 STR = 3 Attack (TESTED)
4 DEX = 3 Accuracy

Ranged Weapons:

2 STR = 1 Ranged Attack
2 AGI = 1 Ranged Accuracy

Defensive:

2 VIT = 1 Defense (TESTED)
2 AGI = 1 Evasion

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, or add information if I left something out. I really enjoy min/maxing in FFXI, so I want to make sure I correctly understand the mechanics. Obviously, it's pretty simple to test STR's impact on attack and VIT's impact on defense, but the rest are invisible numbers so i have no way of testing them.

You can use /checkparam <me> to see the other stats :>
