80k on Quetz. I'm a 42 Taru rdm, and I don't see anything viable to use until these.. I'm sticking with my WONDERful RSE til I can equip these...
I look kind of odd running around with a blue and white combat caster's cloak on and bright red hotpants.... man I wish Taru RSE looked more like the blm af gear.. or something..

As a Hume RDM with RSE legs I'm not sure I would go with these. The DEF and INT are much better but I would lose 32MP and the MND is the same. I probably won't upgrade my legs until AF pants. Decisions...Decisions.
if you dont plan on meleeing/soloing at your lvl i would stick with the RSE for its mp bonus. otherwise you might want to grab these for thier nice stats and extra defense when you plan on taking a few hits.

Posted:Sep 04 2004 at 4:45 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) i think youre missing the part where RDMs CANNOT equip this armor... the screenshot does not show RDM listed despite the fact that they posted it as red mage equippable. this probably justifies the low price.
These must drop extremely commonly from King Arthro for their price. When I bought them (quite a while ago, now), they were only 10k! (I had to wait a few levels after 48 to get them, though. Before I hit 48, there were none in stock, and afterwards, there were only a few and some guy was trying to raise the price WAY too high)
Wow... how did THESE come in under the radar? For 13K on Alexander, a set of good leg armor that are FAR more useful to a red mage than Leaping Boots for much the same ability bonuses, except just in MND and INT instead of AGI and DEX.
Pity they still make mithra look like they're wearing thigh-boots.
Under the radar indeed, I'm a RDM61 and I only heard about these when someone responded to my post about the new Magic Slacks and how they'll go for a lot since nothing else for blm/whm/smn comes close for that level. I'll have to take a look at these...
