Seeing how OP Pilgrim shoes is, I've looked through the possibilies and see that ABs can start playing a new judex style build with this shoes.
Check this setup for example.
Gears:
ME5 +12-14 Old Mitra (2.2-2.4x Judex, -0.5 FCT)
Mob Scarf combo
+13 Flattery Robe INT5/6 OR Abyss dress
+15 Crimson Rod (2 dancing marionette for ASPD) OR +10/12 sungod book [4slots to do whatever u want, aspd very good on this].
+12 Mad bunny shield
+9 Skin of Gwiber (12% aftercast delay, 5int/dex, probably carded with cenere for aspd)
+7 Pilgrim shoes (fkton of defense, 20%aspd and 60% after cast delay reduction)
Perverse Demon Mask for bypass mdef and 6% aftercast delay
Valkyrie drop (5% cast delay, 15% matk, and more)
Stats:
120 int/dex
The rest you play around yourself for your liking.
agi for aspd, str for mdef bypass, vit for HP. Luk only as leftovers.
EG:
str 54
agi 72
vit 90
dex120
int120
luk 24
That gives you a total of 83% aftercast delay for a 1second after cast delay skill, meaning you can cast 5-6 times a second if you had 190+ aspd (honestly anything above 4-5 for iRO is max without cheating imo). Your stats being 120int,120dex and having perverse demon mask and skin of gwiber plus buffs should also give you near or guaranteed instant cast.
Judex itself is an AOE skill with 3x3 cells and has a total modifier of 700% matk at max level. With old mitra +12, you will get it to 1540% matk, that you can spam at 5-6x a second (a grand total of 9240% a second) with almost full matk gears. Not to mention, with the boot's aspd bonus, buffs and madbunny, it should be easy to reach pretty high aspd even with 120int/dex.
Together with how tanky AB is in general and the crazy defense bonus from a pair of shoes, you now have a super tanky AB that potentially destroys everything instance-wise except for valk in ET.
BTW, this is way stronger than any adoramus you may want to pull off right now. Adoramus only has 2625% matk modifer at max level, and has a 2 second CD. Even with a 4 true solin valkyrie hammer, that is only 8925% matk every 2 seconds, which is only single target. You also miss the huge matk bonus from crimson rod.
Also, if you use the sungod book, since your aspd will be damn near or already 193, you may even slap enemies for meteor storm shower anytime anywhere if holy isn't the prefered choice.
Any Main AB players,want to try out my little study please go ahead huhuhu.
***Add on.
If you dont have ME 5, sadly i think you cant abuse this, but you can still use temporal ring+ temporal dex SOL to get 30% aftercast delay.
This means only 53% after cast delay, unless you got a kiel card :x. It still works (0.5seconds cast delay) but nowhere near as op, but you can then drop the agi since you wont need it.
