I just dunno. One guy has a rdm body, and one for his scholar, but we haven't eched it. He's got all the colors too.
Base ebon bard hat had smaller max magic slot than the white dyed one, so they do change. Black is the nq color, then red then white I assume. Would make sense since white comes from the hardest mobs. Or maybe red makes it better for melee, and white for mage dunno at all till we mess with it. Remember they are the ones loading the pot, so they might be confused about what I ask them etc. I don't actually see what the npc tells them.
Aumaan posted in the synergy thread about his furia set. He said it was exactly the same as my shikkoku set as far as shapes and sizes, only he had light elements > dark elements > light elements. The pic of the guy with the shinku togi (furia dye) had the same pattern of light > dark > light. So far there are no pics of ebur. There is a rdm with an ebur body on my server that synthed my base items that I've been trying to track down, but they are jp and on at different times :/
Yeah he just checked his red rdmbody, it was light dark light, 8 6 5 on the slots.
He dyed his white robe black cause it looks better hehe. But I'm pretty sure the white robe would have bigger than a 5 for magic slot, based on the increase of the bard hat.
I'm most interested in how the elements work for the ebur. It would be interesting if you can pick any element and it wasn't restricted like ebon/furia. If I could get an attack and an acc vs. a mob family it might be worth etching. As it is now it's just town gear.
So basically with the armor pieces I have seen thus far, in regards to empty/filled up-triangle and the elements,
With these new armors you get: 1 offensive/defensive vsFamily evolith, 1 different offensive/defensive vsFamily evolith, 1 general magic-related evolith
^----evolith type chart
Least that's the trend of seen from the pieces I've looked it so far ^^;
So with this so far.. I can do things like, add a hella bunch of evasion vs Luminians for tanking Ix'Drk, Ix'Drg. Or I can boost my DE/Evisceration setup at birds a little.. Something vs chariots would be nice but I don't see any archaic machinery. Alone they make very good Subtle-Blow pieces for both tanking and DD'ing, but I don't think most Thf's really care about that. Body can definitely be turned into the best Evisceration piece vs a family of your choice.. ok.. I guess. Still at a loss as to what I can really do to utilize these pieces if anything for my Thf.
If they had instad made the vsFamily evoliths so they would include 2 or 3 familes instead of 1, it'd be a lot nicer, I think.
Does anyone know how I get the Furia Talar. I'm so confused about all of this synergy stuff still.
1. Craft base piece (Ebon Frock).
2. Obtain the correct aptant for the upgrade. (Aptant: Geoc - Uleguerand/Vunkerl NMs)
3. Synergize Coat + Aptant.
4. Ebon Talar is yours.
5. Obtain Furia Pigment.
6. Talar + Pigment = Furia Talar.
You can reverse the process as well, the ebon pigment turns furia back into ebon and the reversal aptant turns the talar back into a frock.
On the sword weaponskill: crit hit rate+%.... dammit, I know it's going to go higher the minute I have the resources to create the ideal Concordia
On evoliths... im really surprised no one has killed and posted Zikko... lol, hes pretty easy to pop though I likely cant solo him. Swashtox Beadblinker is likely a pain just because of where he pops....
Step by step, first have someone craft you, or buy an Ebon Frock. Next, go get an 'ex' Aptant of Geoc from one of several NM's.
Next, synergize these two together. You can find the crafting recipes on the 'Synergy' page on wiki, but it seems like the demand isn't too high. Some pieces can even be synthed with all craft skills under 60. If you don't have the craft skills yourself, find a crafter to stay in party with you while you synergize it. It should be possible, from what I've read, to synergize these at level 1 but with difficulty. If you want you can level synergy yourself, or find someone with synergy leveled and put them in the party as well.
After successful synergy, your Ebon Frock will now be an Ebon Talar. Now, if you want to make it a Furia Talar, all you have to do is get an furia pigment from one of the pixie NM's in Ronafure, Gustaberg, or Sartabaruta [s]. Once you have that, just put in your Ebon Talar and the pigment into the synergy furnace, and synergize.
And you'll have your Furia Talar. From there, you can try etching and adding evoliths to it. They didn't make this system simple did they ;x
But on this topic, I noticed something about Ebon Frock that is different from the "Ebon Harness" derivative pieces. Someone in this thread reported putting the Manafont: Ability -1 evolith in it.
So that's a 'circle' shaped evolith. Which of the 15 base pieces (Ebon Frock set, Ebon Harness set, Ebon Breastplate set) can hold the 2hr circle aperture. And what other apertures can they hold? Can't check atm cuz I'm at work ><
Antican Tribunas or whatever it is does not existThis thing just won't pop.
Edit: Antican Tribunus: Wind songs casting time -2% UGHHH
Tried searching on this thread for Tethra's evolith but can't find it, neither is it on wiki. Here it is, sorry if it had been posted, Vs Luminians: Mag. Acc +6 [ water/triangle filled/6].
Anyone knows the other 4 evoliths for the 4 fomors?

narrowing down the NMs left without evolith type on list.. then it would be easier to work out sizes and shit..
these remain
NM Name
Zikko
Becut
Aynu-kaysey
Crystal Eater
Nis Puk
Swashstox Beadblinker
Big Bomb
Energetic Eruca
Pallas
It would be safe to assume Nis Puk would drop a wind element and Big Bomb would drop a fire element. (Or has past mobs' drops negated this expectation?)
If the evoliths were laid out similar to automaton attachments in having tiers with similar costing, respective elemental bonuses you could guesstimate what we're lacking and what they would give no? Were all the (solid) diamond bonuses found?
Wiki's chart was out of date, Spira's seemed to still be missing a lot of the recent ones (and lacks a pretty visual chart, hint hint!), not sure where the most updated rference would be.
Big Bomb 9 9 80 40 Dark Magic: Enmity-
I remember someone posting this too, I think.
Nvm, I realized you edited your post and changed it to Big Bang.
i added the most recent ones from this thread about 4 hours ago.. along with the additions i saw on otherwikis HR page.
im actually not sure about Big Bomb and Big Bang.. cos maybe i saw a screenshot.. but i'm confused as to whether Big Bomb or Bang has been documented..
the wiki states they both have the same effect.. which is either a big coincidence or input error.
error seems more likely because with Big Bang and Hawkeyed Dnatbat we have 2 NMs which drop that, one high one low (scyld cost / bonus value) which kinda follows the trend.. unless its just different somehow
would be nice if someone came out and clarified between the 2.. somehow..
