Enfeebling Earring  

These are going for 20m on midgar....I have the gil but I'm not wasting 6.6m per enfeebling skill. Sad thing most people buying them probably don't even have their enfeebling merits capped.

i no this sounds super stupid but is a 30rdm/15nin able to solo this? i would think so but most lickly not <font size= "7" font color= "red">please answer

im srry for the lack of knowladge but where and how do i get to find this ENM? does it have a name? is it the same NM u fight to clear the promy or is it like a BC which u need to trade orb or somtin?
will appriciate any information^^

nvm, got my answeres elswhere :)

This is dropped from Promyvion-Dem. Ive gotten this drop twice now. Kinda nice since Dem is by far the easiest one. Only bad thing about it is the AH fee to put it on in Jeuno.

The reason this earring is so awesome(mainly for rdm) is that adding directly to your skill is the best way to get your enfeebles to act in a better manner. The earring isn't much by itself, but when coupled with other things is when it gets powerful. The warlock's tabard gives +15 skill, enfeebling torque +7, earring +3. Having +25 skill is like performing appoximately 7-8ish levels above what you are(not sure on the exact number of levels). This, of course is a lot, plus you must count all the extra mnd, int, and staves that get switched in to add to the enhancement of your spells. All this together make for some mean enfeebles.

Note this is not unique to enfeebling magic.

This Earring as well as all of the lvl 35 earrings are obtained from the Promyvion 30 cap ENMs, to get the EMN quest you must have Chains of Promathia. You start by flagging the Promyvions. To do this, you zone into Lower Delkfutt's Tower sometime after you install CoP. From what I understand, no fame is required. After you get the Cut-Scene, go to Upper Jeuno and talk to the Doctor guy, Monte-something, I can't remember his name, he is in the Clinic or whatever. After you talk to him, you can then talk to Vanessa in Ru'Lude Gardens. She will ask you if you are there about the Promyvion ENMs or something along those lines, confirm until she asks you which Spire you are interested in, Choose a spire and get the key item for the one you want to do (You can get all 3 if you want, you might as well) After that you are ready to go. Get yourself a PT with as many RNGs as possible and a WAR/NIN tank. After you beat the boss, you will get some Memory Clusters and you have some chance (A very slim one apperantly) to get a "Vision" item. You trade the Vision back to Vanessa and she will give you the appropriate Earring for whichever vision you gave her. The one for the Enfeebling Earring is the "Timerous Vision" or something very simular. Getting a Vision in the first place is very rare, and since their are over a dozen possible Visions to get, the chances of getting the one you want is very very slim, not to mention that unless you are with close friends who are just going along to help (or for the 3k XP you get for winning) then even if you DO get the Vision you want, they probably aren't just going to let you keep it as these earrings are very new and still very very expensive (Enfeebling Earring is 3mil on Diabolos, and the Elemental Earring is around 4, though dropping)

*edit
Not sure if you can only get certain visions from certain ENMs, though as you can see, it is confirmed that this particular one drops from ENM30 Spire of Dem (You are what you eat) which is good because from what I can tell, this is by the easiest one. Don't know if you can get this one from other ENMs, though if NOT, then that is good as you don't have as many possible drops thereby making the chances of getting the one you want a lot better. The Vision for the Buckler Earring also drops from this ENM

I am sure ppl who bought it for 1mill or even 2mill in carbuncle tought that the earring would work like friscom said, I dont see anyone in its right mind paying that much for a earring that only gives you 1 lvl worth of skill at lvl 35 (at lvl 35 enfeeb skill cap is 108 and at 36 is 111) or almost 1/2 lvl skill at lvl 70 (lvl 70 player enfeeb cap is 251 and at 71 is 256, these numbers are for rdm), and since xp pt's are always fighting mobs that are aound 10 lvls higher than the highest lvl member 1 lvl will make very little of a difference for the enfeeb spells to stick a lot better or more often, at least not worth for that amount of gil IMO.

The effect given only while wearing it is a understood statement for all experienced players.

wow there are alot of stupid people

One sold so far on fairy, it was for 1 million gil.

why is this so hard to understand? it adds 3 skill, if you are at cap you will go 3 above the cap

Ok, as a lv 65 Red Mage, my Enfeebling is capped at 227.

I have two pieces of equipment that add to enfeebling skill.

Enfeebling Torque (+7 Enfeebling Magic Skill)

Warlock's Tabbard (+15 Enfeebling Magic Skill)

When those are unequipped, my Enfeebling Magic Skill listed under profile > magic skill is blue and capped at 227. With them equipped my Enfeebling Magic Skill is blue and capped at 249.

If I had this earring it would then be blue and capped at 252.

________________

Now when I hit lv 66, I'll then be able to raise my Enfeebling Magic Skill again. When I get a full .10 skillpoints, I'll get the message that my skill has gone up to 228. Under my profile, it will be listed as 250. 253 If I had this earring.

Hope this helps.

It sounds to me that all of you keep arguing the same fact. Nothing I have read says anything basely different, other than the words used. Does it raise your Enfeebling Magic Skill by 3? Meaning: If I equip this Earring and my Enfeebling is Capped (which right now I think is 103), it will then raise it 3 more points? Without Skilling up? Please confirm, I am confused.....and hungry

edited to remark that this post will be utterly confusing now that is up top..... :(

These, and all of the new skill raising earrings, come from the Lv30 ENMs in the basic three Promyvions. The spheres that award prizes do not always drop the required item to get these earrings; they are an uncommon drop. And you only get one. You bring this drop back to the NPC where you get the ENM key items from, and she gives you the appropriate earring.

For those unsure of the worth of this, consider that a person with an A+ rating in a skill has their cap raise by three points every level. A red mage at level 35 with capped Enfeebling would be able to raise his or her enfeebling score by three more points upon reaching level 36. This earring gives you the skill equivalent of an extra level. This is -not- the same as an actual extra level, considering the other benefits of leveling, but can be a considerable help when trying to land a spell on a hard opponent. This is especially so with enfeebling, since, unlike elemental spells, a resisted enfeebling spell simply misses (distinguishing between spell ACCURACY, which is avoiding resistance [mostly skill-based], and spell POWER, which is how long the spell lasts or how much damage it does [mostly stat-based]).
