PLD gear for missions, Dynamis (Nuevo options?)

[Havelock]

I'm a pretty casual player who doesn't do much endgame. I don't tank HNMs and probably never will, and a lot of my time I spend soloing or trioing with a couple of friends. So I don't go /nin very often, and I don't know that fastcast gear is worth my time considering that.

But maybe I'm completely wrong, so I wanted to ask. I'm about to finish ACP, so should I choose acc+10 (or something else) on the Nuevo instead of fastcast? What would serve me best in Dynamis, Campaign, and missions? Here's the gear I usually leave town with, if it helps puts things into perspective. Any input appreciated!

Head: IR, WTurban
Body: Gallant, Haub
Hands: IR
Legs: IR
Feet: Gallant
Weapon: Macua+1,Company
Ammo: Lamian / Bibiki
Earring: Insomnia, Stoic
Ring: Herc, Mermaid, WoodsmanX2
Waist: Warwolf, Life Belt
Back: Resentment
Neck: Shield Torque, Parade Gorget

A Haubergeon can easily replace the melee options on a Nuevo, nothing can replace 5 Enmity/5 Fast Cast, if you're taking it for PLD, I'd still take that.

Anytime you're /war and not kiting a mob, af feet or af feet+1 a absolute must.
Dynamis;
If you're main calling: af/relic/iron ram for body, iron ram every where else, though I use askar legs for the hp with acc/atk
Off tanking: anything with hp, enmity and vit, with hp and enmity the priority over vit.
ACP body with fast cast and enmity is good for both main calling and off tanking, just a matter of prefence.

Using /rdm or /whm in campaign or soloing something I use my acp body for the fast cast and enmity, vit, str and hp.

Also if you ever get the gil in the future, get a cerberus mantle for zones you can't get the resentment cape effect active in. And a bomb queen ring too, 75 hp is tasty :3

The main things I would suggest that aren't endgame are iron ram body and sattva ring (complete CoP missions).

Amir feet (from Assault Points) might be useful for solo/campaign - it's a damage dealt vs. damage taken tradeoff, so in the same kind of situations where you would wear turban or hauby. Likewise, amemet mantle.

This may sound really noobish but, what do you mean by calling? I've never heard that term before.

Fast cast and enmity, no doubt about it. I wish I still had mine;

This may sound really noobish but, what do you mean by calling? I've never heard that term before.

It's a term commonly used in dynamis or einherjar. Just means someone engages and calls a mob and everyone else assists this person.

Thanks for the tips, everyone. Guess I'll go with the Fast Cast...once I get a win. We lost hard last night.
