[Hank]

Thank you.

[Kidzukai]

Looks interesting, would like to see some stuff like this around, especially the Khim/Cerb/Hydra ISNMs. Would be alot of fun and nice for people who can't regularly claim to get some practice.

[Tomiko]

I definately like the idea for the ISNM 75s. Hopefully SE will implement something like that.

The part about paying off your debt to Naja for a reward is also a good idea.

Grips: Good stuff.

Polearm: Needs more Drg only Polearms. Damn Sam & War gimping our weapons!

Quite a few of the items seem unbalanced to me, especially this one:

Hercules Breastplate (R, Body)
DEF:50
Adds "Regen" effect
Adds "Refresh" effect
WHM:Enmity-2
PLD:Enmity+2
LVL 75 PLD/WHM

I think it the Regen/Refresh were changed to Latent abilities equal to Hercules' Ring, it would be alot more doable and still decent/good. But as is, I'd expect to see most Pld/Nins using it.

Overall, good stuff =)

[Dense]

Upon first review, I thought this was going to be some horribly unbalanced gear speculation, but I have to admit that you've done a fair job on everything. I'm not sure about the Latent process, however.

For the H2H, the damage should be a touch higher, and remove the att+, and change Double Attack to Kick Attacks, as they are H2H specific, and it would give PUP a way to have Kick Attacks. Also, it should be the Sainti model that was introduced with ToAU, imo.

Something like this

Khroma Sainti (R, Hand-to-hand)
DMG:19 Delay+70
Accuracy+4 Kick Attacks+3%
Latent Effect: Adds "Regen" effect
LVL 75 MNK/PUP

[Starr]

Sentinel Badge (R/E, Neck)
DEF:10
STR+4 DEX+4 Attack+5 Accuracy+5
LVL 75 All Jobs

Yeah let's make Sea Torques pointless that would be great.

[Celebrindor]

I applaud the effort, but the last thing you need is a bunch of RDM's with zero natural staff skill whiffing away at mobs trying to proc the latent "adds refresh effect" to the mage staff you created above :D

[Thistle]

Howling Horn (R, Wind Instrument)
"Elegy"+2 Wind Instrument Skill+5
LVL 75 BRD

Latents are active when you are under the effect of "Mysterious Enchantment", which will appear when landing a critical strike with the weapons above

I've always wanted to run around wacking people with my flute. :D

[Shuemue]

Howling Horn (R, Wind Instrument)
"Elegy"+2 Wind Instrument Skill+5
LVL 75 BRD

Latents are active when you are under the effect of "Mysterious Enchantment", which will appear when landing a critical strike with the weapons above

I've always wanted to run around wacking people with my flute. :D

Yeah, except it has no latent listed.

[Datonare]

It was a club, which they do have skill in (210 cap I think?) But it's also usable by BLU, who has decent club skill and can utilize refresh.

Sentinel Badge (R/E, Neck)
DEF:10
STR+4 DEX+4 Attack+5 Accuracy+5
LVL 75 All Jobs

Yeah let's make Sea Torques pointless that would be great.

Well obviously this is only my point of view, but I don't find farming sea enjoyable or worth the trouble when it comes to trying to please the entire ls, or at least whoever is helping out. Maybe adding a third or fourth neck piece that Naja can reward you with would help balance in the fact that not everyone would have the sentinel badge, it could also require a large amount of imp. platinum pieces, which could elongate the time it took for a lot of people to get them.

Khroma Sainti (R, Hand-to-hand)
DMG:19 Delay+70
Accuracy+4 Kick Attacks+3%
Latent Effect: Adds "Regen" effect
LVL 75 MNK/PUP

You're right, that does fit a lot better in terms of blending with TAU as well as offering a good weapon for PUP (which is what I had in mind when making it)

Either way, common theme in this game in terms of gear is "shit is situational", so I kind of tried to keep that continuity when I thought of what to put on the gear. If shit is unbalanced, that's probably why I'm workin' tech support and not for SE lol

[Thistle]

Howling Horn (R, Wind Instrument)
"Elegy"+2 Wind Instrument Skill+5
LVL 75 BRD

Latents are active when you are under the effect of "Mysterious Enchantment", which will appear when landing a critical strike with the weapons above

*wacks Shuemue with his flute* Stop killing my fun.

[Epical]

I see you put a lot of effort into that, and I can actually see some of those items being pretty useful, so good job! Now all we have to do is forward this list/link to SE's legal department (because we know they read these forums).

Just kill yourself now and save yourself the trouble later on in life.





I think a lot of these items are very good ideas, and I also really like the khim/cerb/hydra ISNM idea.

[Paegan]

Scholar's Wand (R, Club)
DMG:30 Delay:216
Depending on day: Magic Attack Bonus+15
Latent Effect: Adds "Refresh" effect
LVL 75 BLM/BLU/RDM/SMN/WHM

This item is lol, for BLM anyway.

Even the 10% flat damage bonus on a NQ staff > MAB+15 for any BLM75 with half-decent gear, and it doesn't depend on day.

Well if somebody on the internet told me to, I don't see why I should disagree.lol
