This is a personal choice but from my oppinon:

AF1: lol. . .like last choice

Gaudy harness: only useful to switch in on low mp (<49)

Minstrel: a nice body for some time, but at 75 not the best choice

Osode: if u're in for solo, it's really nice. for everything else the 30MP is the most useful. CHR doesn't have that much use for a BRD and outta the remaining stats only VIT has any true use. More for show then anything else

Dalmatica: after all the years still 1 of the best BRD armors, MP and esp refresh helps with ur WHM sub. Always mind a BRD doesnt have the luxury to med midfight and you loose ballad every time you buff the melee.

AF2: would be nice for solo. . .but Osode, Scrop harness and so on is a similar good or maybe better choice, if u're in a pt for xp/events/HNM/gods/. .. . this body is just useless

Vermy: All right! It's a very good substitude if u can't get Dalmatica. Has the same good points and only true drawback is u can't use headgear.

Errant Body: seriously, only use if u can't / don't want to get any other mage body or for the rare case when u can med up mp. . .

Sha'ir: 1 of my preferences, the song cast time reduction is really great, sonsidering buff songs like Minuet take ~12secs to cast. Apart from that it's not too great tho. . .(besides only Sha'ir hands are really great, pants are useful, rest isnt too great)

Yigit Gomlek: (Periqia assault) This body is like Iquira meats errant meats sha'ir. A very good body w/ MAB (if u have RDM or BLM lvled), the 5HMP and song casttime reduction. In my oppinion pretty much THE body armor for a brd atm..

Don't forget about:

a) Kirin's Osode. Of course, this is great. MP, CHR, VIT, good def, and fun stats for soloing too.

b) Narasimha's Vest. Yep. If you don't particularly need CHR at the moment and would just like to take less damage (sky and KRT parties), it's not a bad piece. Nice for solo, too.

b) Gaudy Harness. Can't get Dalmatica? This will at least keep you refreshed up to 49 MP, which can help at times. It doesn't sound like a lot, but you should see what BSTs do with it. Also a great item for level-capped stuff.

I switch between the above 3, Errant, and Minstrel's. Errant I use while resting for MP, and in big nasty fights where I want the -enmity. Minstrel's I sometimes throw in depending on my other gear. I use Narasimha's quite a bit, actually. I've never used AF1 (didn't even get it until 75), and would only use AF2 for soloing if I had it.

After some research, it seems to be that the two pieces that grant "Military Parade" and "Courtly Measure" work something like this:

Military Parade:

STR+8, DEX+8, VIT+8, AGI+8, INT-8, MND-8, CHR-8
This is activated when you are in attack mode.

Courtly Measure:

STR-8, DEX-8, VIT-8, AGI-8, INT+8, MND+8, CHR+8
This is activated when you are not in attack mode.

I have no experience to prove this, but it's the generally accepted theory.

Warrior AF2 is called "Warrior's" armor and summoner AF2 is called "Summoner's" armor... :\
