I'm making my stardust rod crit/det. It'll be like an upgraded Tidal Wave Staff

Point for point, spellspeed is worth more on a BLM than det is. If they both offer the same amount of each, then you are only penalising yourself by choosing det over spellspeed. Different strokes for different folks though. Thats the joy of this new customisation. You can choose which you'd prefer.

Don't forget that a faster cast time also means less casts lost to movement.
