Yet everyone argues about turban is better than askar (only 2-2.5 acc)

There's mine. It's near perfect. Missing Nocturnus & maybe something else.
Wrong way round.
Foragers and Osode (14STR and 15 attack) is better than Hauby 1 and Smilodon Mantle 1 (11STR 12 attack)
Yep, I know Osode is better, but I sold it (in hopes of getting Noct. mail) when i saw the price drop. As for Foragers, I don't think that it's better than Smilodon +1.
Regarding the modifiers for Y/G/K (and please give me credit if you quote this to anyone, heh). Gekko receives the largest multiplier to the c ration (your att vs the mob's def), followed by Kasha and then Yuki. That said, read below...
- merits/limbus/dynamis/einherjar/etc mobs are around LV 83 and have about 330 defense ~430 attack will put you to the cap;
- HNMs like Cerberus/Khimaira/Ixion/Fafnir/Gods are around LV87 and have about 500-550 defense 700-770 attack will put you to the cap;
- Wyrms/Kirin/JoL are around LV95 and have about 600 defense ~950 attack will be enough to hit the cap.
So yeah, this means that if you reach those attack values, you are better off using Osode and Smilo+1 for Gekko, if you don't, keep using Haub+1/Cerb(+1).
In Dynamis and Meritting situations, once you hit 430 Attack you could strap 10 pairs of O.Kote to your arms and the hypothetical +200 attack wouldn't do you a lick of good based on the cap placed on the c ration in the damage equation. If you see your attack at the ~430 range (450, to be safe) add as much strength as you're able to in order to see better results.
Put on a Smilodon Mantle +1 for WS. Go on, do it. You'll feel dirty for awhile, but soon you'll admit to liking it :P
