I have used this for my NIN to the level that I am at (15) and it is worth the money. I find that I can get alot of hate at times with just hits. +Enemity on it adds into hits as well (not sure about NIN debuffs and such), so for a NIN this is great if you shadows up. I macro out to defensive equipment should my shadows be down or I have too much hate and my other Provokes cannot get the mob from me.
Since french would translate this to "Hide-Nose" I have to restate Idragons qestion:

Oh and....How does Hiding your Nose Increase HATE!!!!
I can understand the relation ship between it being a face mask but don't understand why it should inately increase hate...unless of course its playing on the old French sterotype /snicker /snicker ;)
If you just use the scroll lock, print screen method u can just open the file the Playonline uses to store the pics and modify them or send them etc from there no need to paste to paint or anything. lol

I /check the bazaar and get myself a lizard jerkin and a set of kingdom gloves for 1 gil each. I then notice that the seller, Lathern, had on a Cache-nez. I jokingly shout "I'll buy that Cache-nez for 1 gil too!" He replies "Try 100k." Now, as nice as this item was I wasn't going to pay that much for it, but no more than 5 seconds later he shouts "Trade for 1 gil!" my jaw drops and I manage to target him in the mess that is the Lower Jeuno AH. I thought he was joking around, but i still put my 1gil in the trade box, and sure enough he puts in the Cache-Nez. A lot of elvaan are pigs, most dragoons are jerks, but an elvaan dragoon I've never even met before just gave me an item that goes for 75-100k here on seraph. This is for Lathern!!! You've restored my faith in elvaan-kind!!!
b/c of the low def, i would say ninja's would have the best use for it. sense ninja's rely on utsusemi and not defense(gear wise), any extra enmity gear would definitely help out a lot. war/nin's might also have some use for it, but sense their ninjutsu is a lot lower b/c of ninja being sub, defense gear would probably be better. thought evasion is also really good for ninja tanks, if u have the money, the emp hairpin is a different direction u can go at lvl 24 as ninja.
Recently I started leveling NIN, and purchased one of these in Jeuno (on Lakshmi) for 25-30k (I can;t remember now), simply because it was the only level 1 headgear with 2 DEF.
I sold it back a week later for 30k (though the AH in Windurst has one in the history, having been sold for 200k >_<).
I'm curious as to what this item is really good for. The + Enmity is very interesting, and people pay a lot for a little extra enmity, but with such low defense, I can't see it being a feasible item to use in those later levels.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't emnity a straight up value? i.e. it doesn't add to the emnity voke gives, it just adds to your total emnity. Therefore, once you take it off, the emnity you got from it is then lost.
A +emnity item basically gives a hate multiplier for anything you do you generates hate while worn. So if this is equiped and they you provoke, that provoke causes more hate. Same thing would happen if it was equiped before a WS or before a Pld cured themselves.
Yes enmity is a multiplier of hate +/-. Hate will not be lost from removing an item that helped u get the hate. Hate is lost by dmg taken and not doing anything to create hate ex: casting, job abilities, and dmg dealt.
Lol 5k at Jueno in Gilgamesh....just bough one...I'll prolly be using to gain the monster's attention when things get wrong or when i use WAR and i'm tanking.
Oh and....How does Hiding your Nose Increase HATE!!!!
This is also a good headpiece for THFs past lvl 30 who dont own a Emporer's Hairpin the extra enmity makes a BIG diference in how much hate is transfered in SATA. You can just use a /equip macro with it and w/e headpiece you use.
To my knowledge, it isn't the enmity that's transfered, it's rather just that the mob think's the TA partner was the one to deal the damage, hence having more emnity on the THF doesn't transfer more to the TA partner.
This Item is a lvl 1 equipable headgear/facemask thingy. I havent tried to buy it yet, since im always broke, but I think I saw it sell like three times for 1k at Bastok...

Their is only one person in all of Remora who has this item, a Japanese player named Inpy, a Tarutaru Female. Anyway, if you are paying any more then 1k for this item, you are getting ripped off very badly. And it's ONLY a high-price in some servers right now because it was just admitted into the game.

This is the new reward from the "Tuning Out" Quest in Windy waters. Although, you have to do the "Tuning In" quest first. Both quests are long and annoying, and I recently sent an e-mail to Haggan with all the corrections, hopefully it will be updated soon.
