This is our melding guide for FF14 patch 5.3 for the i490 Aesthete's crafting set. This is a penta-melded set designed to carry you from level 80 to 90 when the time comes. If you are using the current Dragonsung tool the stats will be lower than the guide. This will change as we do the upgrades.
If you are looking for a melding guide that uses grade VIII materia for overmelds this isn't it. The reason I don't meld that way is because it is insanely expensive and completely unnecessary for optimal performance with this gear set. I can craft all of the new 3 star recipes to 100% quality using all NQ mats with the current melding, can't figure out a reason to drop 30 million gil extra on grade VIII overmelds just to be able to do the same thing!
