Actually the whole set isn't bad.
Head has the highly wanted haste - 2% less than WTurban, but maybe that can be made up with other items. Maybe use the legs ?
There are better pieces for certain spots, but it's not like the set is absolute trash.
Since you happen to be on the subject; is the Skadi body really that good? I couldn't think of a great use for it really. For THF, you can get Dex+8 Agi+8 Acc+8 Eva+8 on the Antares Harness for a lot cheaper then the body upgrade, not to mention it's less effort. BST has plenty of better alternatives. I guess it's tolerable for RNG and COR, but even at that it seems unnecessarily difficult to get.
^ every piece has its situation, but more than likely osode is bread and butter for rng
skadi body is better than antares, but its a small upgrade.
Edit: fucking amazing for cor too iirc
I don't know if this belongs in Random Fail or Gimp/Confused/WTF because honestly, it's got a lot of both.

Wow.. Lets me guess thats a Venrer(sp) Ring?
And I guess it could be a half assed try and sword skill up gear?
If he is lving a job that uses sword next like blu or pld he might just be trying to cap it. I know I did some odd shit like war/sam with random gear trying to cap scythe and Greatsword for drk. It would be nice if you told us what zone he is in.
I have no issues with him skilling sword, I did the same on SAM trying to cap dagger for THF. But he's trying to do it in Besieged, I doubt he's going to hit anything at all.
Well I guess the random fail could be him /sam with a one handed weapon. I just noticed it.
Seiryu's kote and Blood can easily replace Hands, Body and Head are situational, but I think Legs come out to be amazing, one of the best TP pieces for RNG and THF, RNG to achieve the 6hit build. Feet only if you have no striders.
not having to do salvage makes trotters eons above skadi
you shouldn't be using either of them for anything besides running on thf, for running i'd rather have the 2 agi and neutral eva than negative eva from skadi.. rng has scout's socks for tp, i suppose cor could use them for shooting but cor can't use trotters anyway
Homam pisses all over both for TP, and Heca for WS, so when they're only being used for running around in it's kinda irrelevant (and yes, i'd much rather have them 55 levels earlier, personally), from a THFs perspective at least. Hell, Dusk are better for TP than Skadi.
I guess they're alright for RNG, and can save you an inventory slot instead of using Strider's/Scouts or w/e.
