Seems to me that all my melee jobs end up wearing this. I didn't even bother with Forager's Mantle at 71, I still think this is better in all honesty.

Uh actually, if you've played longer you'd know that SE had an update to change its name from Amemit to Amemet. Don't ask why I think it was a waste >_> but thats what happened.
3 million on Ifrit. 1 less STR then Forager's Mantle, for 15 RATK, which is good for classes with ranged ability:SAM, RNG, THF, NIN, WAR
Pretty good buy. Another of those items you'll buy once, and never replace, because it'll last you until you quit.

i dont know about anyone else but i dont think +5 attack and +1 str is worth a extra 1.5mil ontop of the normal +1 str +10 attk that only costs 10k i mean sure its nice and all but im sure you can find something better to envest on that will help you more. like food. ill i got to say is waisting money { Im not up for it }

in the time it takes for you to complain about prices/gil sellers/NM camping you chould have made 100k..... stop whineing and do something about it.
I got one back when it was 1.1 mil on Pandy. Well worth paying extra for back in the day. I dont think current prices would be worth it cuz on my server it's about 3 mil. But still a very nice piecce of gear if u can afford it.
Might be just me but it seems like items like this, in which there is lots of traffic, go up in price considerably over the weekend, then will drop again during the week. I learned this the hard way on some of the nin equip I bought and I dont think it's a perfect rule but it is something to keep in mind when buying some of your equipment
anybody know roughly how high one needs to get in leather before they have a shot at +1 on this?

If it's a level 60 synth, then level 91 or above should put you at the first big HQ tier, which I believe is around 10-30% HQ rate. Of course you could HQ it before that, but it would be a lucky fluke if that happened. You would have to be level 111 to break the 2nd HQ tier of 51 levels above cap (30-50% HQ rate), which is impossible of course.
my friend tested the rng attck on some dahmel and both , +1 and not +1 seem to have same dmg, can any1 toughen my friends theory (im talking bout the RANGED ATTACK not attack )
This has topped out at 800K on Caitsith. I just bought a regular Amemit Mantle for 5.1K the other night. Yes, this is one of the better +1s available and eventually I'm going to get it, but it's hilarious the price difference between the NQ and the HQ. One less reason to level leathercrafting, I guess.
just baught mine on Leviathan for 740k always in stock and always being bought, havnt used it yet, but if you have the money to get this... definetly grab it. as previously said, best for any DD melee class, plus its money in the bag ^_~

Why aren't there more +1 items that are 50% better than their vanilla variety? One shudders to think of extra HP gained while in an area controlled by your nation.
"Yay +15HP for me, if I stay in Gustaberg!", says the Galka warrior. =)
a sam/rng is probably the only job that gets the full benefeit of this mantle though it will be helpful for anyone who uses ranged weapons and anyone who uses melee weapons, only a sam/rng will use both interchangably I should know ;)
