    Maybe I'm derping, maybe not. But there is 1 Mage set from Cursed gear and one for Hexed gear, but I saw 3 different Mage sets. WHM, SMN, and a MAB set.

    Am I missing something?

    Man, that 119 hexed gear sure is a slap to the face. Not only can you not upgrade existing gear, but the stats are worse on the 119 piece than on the 99 piece anyway. Good going, SE.

    There's two mage hexed sets. Amalric = Spurrina, and Kaykaus = Iaso.

    Depends on what you count as mage sets (like I'd almost call Wyrmal a hybrid mage/light dd)... not counting Ein stuff since it seems left out and Wyrmal

    You got Aquarian WHM/BLM/RDM/BRD/SMN/GEO
    Foreboding BLM/RDM/SMN/BLU/SCH/GEO
    Lenitive WHM/RDM/BRD/SCH

    definitely no just smn sets though

    Total abj counts match up though so I guess apogee is aquarian? Kind of lame a lot of mages lost a set just to give smn a smn specific one

    Are you sure? I thought I heard Aquarian upgraded into the SMN only armor.

    If not, any idea where it comes from?

    The Apogee set has the Zenith sets model, its definitly made from Zenith gear.

    I guess maybe this is a boon for crafters? Whatever crafters are left... they are going to make bank.

    Im 99% sure zenith gear -> apogee gear, and it cuts down to SMN onry.

    Thats all there is to it, no other gear shares the model with zenith gear, only apogee, it also has the same naming conventions except body.

    Yeah that's basically what I was saying. The number of sets line up to the old one and mab seems obviously spurrina so seems like a bunch of mages lost a set to make a smn specific one

    Body does have the same naming convention (they are both called dalmatica). And so pretty much everyone (unless you only play SMN) is not going to upgrade their dalmy because they would lose out on that fast cast+6 and occ. quickens spellcasting +3%.

    It could just be a mistake. SE has messed up jobs on gear before.

    Even if the jobs that can wear it are messed up the stats are overwhelmingly geared torwards smn not sure any would be great for non smn except maybe body assuming it's easier than other 3 refresh bodies introduced this update

    Nah the Apogee set is super smn onry, all of its stats are smn stats now. BP damage, BP delay, almsot the whole set has avatar: stats, etc etc.

    Its set bonus for HQ is "increases blood pact damage"

    Its useless armor for non smn jobs.

    we don't know what the augments from Nolan are yet though. If anyone does upgrade any of the zenith and it turns out they are all avatar related.... then we know for sure it wasn't a mistake.

    Unless Nolan's augments for the set are awesome (which might as well be the case) that set kinda sucks for SMN as well, when Helios is out there.

    Depends how strong the set bonus is though too.

    I doubt that the janking down to SMN-only was unintentional.
    Namely because other sets gain some jobs. (Ryuo is suddenly PUP, DNC on Lustratio)

    though I am really curious about the potency of that set bonus on Apogee... it'll have to be extremely potent for it to beat even just "meh" augmented Helios....
    And chances are that it'll be to the degree of the empyrean and salvage set bonuses. eg: +2~10% or some such bluh.
    But maybe it'll be something insane and actually worthwhile like 10~50% or something like that.
    Cause right now... these don't seem to be worth the hoops that need be jumped through. (maybe augments will change that? I doubt it though. I feel they released A!skirmish gear too early lol)

    still haven't seen the augments though from Nolan. Could be incredibly powerful..... or could be shit. Time will tell.
