Summoner DPS Gear and Best in Slot — Endwalker 6.1
On this page, you will find the best gear and best-in-slot items for your Summoner DPS in Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker (Patch 6.1).
Summoner Gear and BiS
This section specifically covers best-in-slot builds and choices for Summoner. The builds provided are updated for patch 6.08 and include optimized gearsets for each Ultimate encounters' item level sync.
If you are currently gearing up your Summoner and looking for more information on why these specific stat combinations are made, check out our melding and stat priority page for Summoner.
General BiS - Patch 6.08 (ilvl 600)
The sets listed below require a combination of both Savage and Tome gear released in patch 6.05.
Savage 2.46s GCD w/ SpS melds
2.48s GCD w/o SpS melds
2.20s GCD

BiS Builds for Ultimates
If you are entering level 70 Ultimate encounters to prog and ultimately clear, you do not need to go through the effort to put together the exact BiS shown here.
The pieces of gear shown here are examples. You can also swap any piece of gear for another that has the same combination of stats (crit+dh, crit+det, etc.), provided it is above the minimum ilvl to fully sync (ilvl 470 for UCOB, ilvl 500 for UWU).
The Epic of Alexander (TEA) - BiS
If you do not have a relic weapon, you may replace the
Blade's Acumen with 
Book of Grace.
The Unending Coil of Bahamut (UCoB) - BiS
If you do not have a relic weapon, you may replace the
Blade's Acumen with any Crit+DH weapon that is above item level
470.
The Weapon's Refrain Ultimate (UWU) - BiS
If you do not have a relic weapon, you may replace the
Blade's Acumen with any Crit+DH weapon that is above item level
470.
