Going through and reading the posts here has boosted my confidence alot. I managed to buy a trump crown from the Jeuno AH for 4,000 gil on Ifrit. Needless to say I am exceedingly happy.
I sit here and read posts and laugh that people would pay millions on unproven beliefs of ungodly hidden abilities on items.
If I had millions of gil I would using it to make more millions of gil not to buy rumors.
Besides who cares if you can get a bunch of rare/ex drops better? It's not worth the price. And the increase in HP/MP? I will stick with other options that don't hurt my wallet.
And btw...it's 350k on my server (Pandemonium) I wonder why the price would be so low if this item was all everyone said it was. Next time get some undenyable proof and post that. Don't talk about what you wish it did.
Also when I am in dunes I get the subjob item drops very often. This doesn't surprise me 'cause I already have my subjob. Oh and FYI true TH doesn't affect the drop rate of Rare/Ex items. (Or so everyone has said.) Then again most of you would believe anything, so you make up your own mind.
yeah...that blows for you guys lol... it only cost me 400k in Gilgamesh...but im not sure how the incrament system works...does it increase the hp/mp raised by wearing the crown or does it increase base hp/mp of the job itself?
this caps at 27 hp/mp not sure if one goes up faster than the other does it matter no. i think it's good for bst brd and pld to a lvl. but by lvl 75 it's meh turbin is better.
go to ffxiepodia for info. I was stupid and bought it to see for myselk hope some one buys it so i didn't waste **** loads of gil and just waste half a **** load.
I'm a level 45 bst and trump crown only gives me +18 hp/mp so far. Thankfully it was pretty cheap (surprisingly cheaper and easier to find/obtain than the Kosshin I used to use (back when Trump Crown was quite literally priceless for some mysterious reason).
I was completely shocked and did a big **eyeroll** when I see all the "omg 1t haz teh 1337nezz TH I swearz" on Alla and almost no real information on the effects of the item... For shame, Alla users!
Anyway if anyone has solid info on the MP/HP increase increments, it would be appreciated. And fyi to those who insist on continuing to lie: the amount of HP and MP + it gives will always be equal.
Oh and although I'm a skeptic of the hidden effect: TH thing, I killed an Ochu today and got 2 Malboro Vines, which I didn't think was possible without TH. It was the first time in 10 levels of using the crown that I noticed any unusual drops though.
Even if you dont believe in the TH effect (which I don't) it's still a very nice piece of gear for several jobs at that level. I used it on PLD, BLU and BRD and for mp challenged races it would be nice for BST too.
I've equipped this into BCNMs and I didn't get ****. The Treasure hunter rumor is ridiculous. At the level you can use this it can certainly be one of the best equipments available but when you get to a higher level, you can unequip it for other things.
At lvl 45 you get 18 HP/MP and the cap is 27 MP from what we have discovered from testing. Don't fall for this kind of stuff as posted on this page:

Got the crown a few days ago after months of putting it aside cause I had other gear to buy. I didn't think it would give TH but equipping it to my lvl 20 Bst I went to lvl in the Dunes. I killed 4 Ghouls and got 4 skulls. Killed 8 Flys got 6 Worms. Maybe just luck but it seems odd to get so many so often.
I'm wearing this crown now and I'm not getting that at all.
yes I'm a little late to say this, like 2yrs late :3
Treasure Hunter does not affect chests. This is primarily the reason why ppl don't pick up THF for BCNM/ENM/KSNM runs unless they are required for hate or evasion to tank (which is never, I believe).
been 0/46 on Leaping Lizzy... yes i know he hates me... anyway, i accidentally came across this item when browsing through alla and thought what the heck, i'll give it a try... worst case is i sell it back if it doesn't work and lose a few grand on tax... Bought the crown, 2M on pandy and went out camping LL. 40mins in he pops, i claim, 1/1 on boots with crown on. I was 75whm/war for provoke...
whether i'm just lucky or what idk... but i'm keeping this crown for a long while ^^;
This crown does not seem to be that rare at all on Kujata. I counted at least 10 sold in 1 months time, and price dropped from 8 mil to 2.8 (for which i bought) from march to april. The question i have is to those who have noticed major increases in drops, could you detail the conditions in which this crown seems to work more? Ive heard a little about being more effective for mages, some say more effective while solo, some say more effective for NM drops only, some say more effective for rare and rare/exclusive drops only. Does anyone have data or opinions on how i can get the most out of my crown?
Jp's players are swearing to me up and down this thing just gives "Empty Killer" trait like the shade gear and ive been using this crown from lvl 23 or 24 on smn till now at lvl 60 and still continue to use it due to the hp/mp buffs and honestly using it this long theres no difference in drops on anything if i were to take it off and farm with it off, but im still not going to say no but after using it for about 7 months now i dont think theres anything more special then what meets the eye even farming in the promy's i dont notice any difference with memorys etc, also while melee'ing i have yet to see anything lead me to believe it has teh shade killer effect as well oh well though i wont say if it does or doesnt have hidden stats/effects but i have yet to notice them using the crown as long as i have. Anyways if your a thf out there dont waste the money on it unless you feel like testing it yourself and are pretty sure you can sell it back, ive tried it on my 41thf as well no difference in drops with it on, i still find more stuff with thf @ 41 with normal TH then i do on my mage with the Trump Crown. Though imo i think its one of the best smns head pieces to equip if you arent comfortable not being able to use head gear with a vermy cloak. Good luck with testing or whatnot ^^
well the price on my server for the crown is still going up and these things are rare as can be. there have only been like 8-9 sold total and the last three prices go up 2-4 mil each. If any of you doubt the effectiveness of this thing, check your servers ah in jeuno and look at the names of the ppl purchasing the crown. On my server they are all notorious thfs, that have made alot of money off of nm hunts. the word on the crown is creepin out too, ive been getting random /tells from time to time asking if i have it still(hell yea), and if i will sell it(hell no!)!
Got the crown a few days ago after months of putting it aside cause I had other gear to buy. I didn't think it would give TH but equipping it to my lvl 20 Bst I went to lvl in the Dunes. I killed 4 Ghouls and got 4 skulls. Killed 8 Flys got 6 Worms. Maybe just luck but it seems odd to get so many so often.
one thing i forgot to add is get this thing while you can before the price sky rockets, it seems the secret of this crown is getting out as im starting to see posts in thf forums on other sites.
I let a blm friend of mine use this to parse and it seems that this crowns TH kicks in more-so for mages than while i used it as thf, however my drop rates were improved as well. Also it seems the TH boost kicks in more on NMs rather than just all drops. Yesterday my hnmls killed 3 nms ( lucky day) and we got all 3 drops (only one was a high money drop).
well i bought one on garuda for 10m.im 50 thf and ive been using it and it sems like its not really working but i let a whole bunch of my friend mages borrow it and drops were insane! im starting to wonder if my treasure hunter cancels it out or if mage job s get the boost from it or sumthing. can someone else try it on there thf to see if it does the same thing on them?
Ok ive had this crown for almost 2 months and after doing alot of hnmls stuff, either 1, we have gotten insanely lucky.... or 2, the rumored th+ is indeed true. If you are doing any hnmls camps I would highly recommend getting this crown asap.
I have recently gotten my hands on Trump Crown. I am currently raising Bard, my BST is 75, and have a Thief 66, so I have many uses for it. I personally didn't believe the TH+1, so I wanted to test it out myself, even if I don't come to a soilid conclusion.
While heading out to test my Trump Crown with my Thief, I checked my HP/MP to see how much I have gained. I was shocked to find out that my Thief 66 had gained 39 HP to be exact; MP 25.
Also, while wearing this on my Bard during experience points party without Thief, I have seen semi-rare drops quite often; HQ Crab shells in Boyada, keys, Lucky Egg, etc.
There is definitely some mysterious effects on this Crown.

Hmmm. I got one little awhile ago in Valefor for my smn/whm (Godofmagic) i think i had to buy it for 5mil not sure how much it goes for there were 5 in the AH last i checked they dont sell to quick.. not sure about the TH though havent tested it but now that i see there may be a hidden effect when i get home from work tonight its time to do some testing >=) ill post what i can find out.
Ok done a little testing.. I havent tested on NM's or anything beings im not high enough lvl (working on clothcraft atm no time for lvl's) but i did run out in qufim and farm a bit and with it off i would get around 28-45gil with it on i get around 80-100gil as for the carby ruby from leech's as mentioned, i found a couple of those from killing some leechs in bibiki i killed maybe around 15-22 and found 2 not exact on how many because i was killing every thing >_> But it does seem to have some TH if i think about it when i get a higher lvl ill be sure to camp NM's and find out more if i can..
