*BiS: Best in Slot, refers to items/cards that are considered the best according to the ongoing meta. May be subject to change, that is why I put emphasize on dates whenever the term BiS is mentioned on that part. | *'''BiS''': Best in Slot, refers to items/cards that are considered the best according to the ongoing meta.

*Old BiS: Old Best in Slot, was the BiS on previous meta. Some have the potential to be BiS again in the future (e.g. Bio5 MVP Ranger Shecil card in the case future Job 4 Wind Hawk Bio MVP cards will give strong combo bonus), so they are generally still top tier recommended items, though not to die for. | *'''Old BiS''': Old Best in Slot, was the BiS on previous meta.

*Experimental: Strong items that could possibly be BiS on some setups, but are not widely accepted as the BiS and still need a lot of testing and discussion for it to be universally designated as BiS. Or items that are situationally considerably better than BiS or offering niches that are considered worth trading with the boons gained from the BiS items depending on your personal playing style. | *'''Experimental''': Strong items that could possibly be BiS on some setups, but are not widely accepted as the BiS and still need a lot of testing and discussion for it to be universally designated as BiS.

*Damage Flow: Your continuous stream of damage flowing through, it is considered good if you have only skill unique CD as your bottleneck. If your bottleneck is anything else (could be your non-instacast, your ASPD, your aftercast delay,etc) it means your damage flow is not good and you will have to improve upon that. If your bottleneck is PC power or connection (like me) well then it's too bad can't do anything about that but also it means you can be more relaxed and be a bit below theoretical values on some aspects like your '''acd%''' reduction. | *'''Damage Flow''': Your continuous stream of damage flowing through, it is considered good if you have only skill unique CD as your bottleneck.

*'''Arbitrary Number''': From simple test that is done simply to prove that the newer meta is stronger than the old meta. Minimum changes in equipment, with aim to prove that the newer meta is at least 5% (statistical threshold) stronger than the old meta. | |||
