i would definitely chose the Amemet mantle+1 over this, this only gives +1 more str then the amemet+1 and this is also 3mil more expensive on my server (Fenrir). if i was rich and could throw away 3mil for only +1 str, i would get this, but for the time being im gonna stick with my amemet+1.
My opinion is this would be a great mantle for a MNK because all the other mantles that add RNG Acc are kinda useless for MNK because most of them dont use RNG attacks.This is just pure power for MNK and Combined with Och. Kote,Brown and/or Black Belt would just be crazy damage.
yeah, the +1 str is nice... i have my amemet +1 atm saving up to buy one but the ranged attack bonus doesn't matter.... its not gonna hurt u to have it lol =) gl with w/e you're doing
Well, it's kinda nuts on titan this mantle in near 10million more than amete+1 so for the bad spelling. I personally don't think +1 str and -1 def to worth 10 million gil some people think so. Of course flame rings cost 10 million or getting close to it.
So is 1 Str greater than the +15 R.Attack. Everyone on my server seems to think so by the price of this item. I was thinking I'd get this instead of Anemit+1 until I checked the price. Currently Amemit +1 is 1.2~1.5mil on my server where this nice cape here is 2.8~3mil. Me I don't think it's enough to pay almost double for. I'm going to just buy the Anemit+1.
@hotpierced: First think and then post before you talk some B***sh**!
Well I´m a DRK and to be honest...THIS Cape is a lot better for DRK then the Amemit Mantle...
And thats for two reasons...
First: The Attack is better then the +1 Amemit and as DRK you never rely on R.Att so it wont matter at all!
Second: STR affects the DRK WS on Scythe and Great Sword! Higher STR means higher WS DMG...so I will ditch Amemit at 71 for sure if I get my hands on this one!
Well I´m a DRK and to be honest...THIS Cape is a lot better for DRK then the Amemit Mantle...
It's 1 extra STR and 1 fewer DEF. Is that really "a lot"?
Seems to me that 10 levels later, with no RATT and only an extra point of STR, this should get cheaper than an amemit +1 pretty quickly. I'm a PLD with no use whatsoever for RATT, and I'd still take an Amemit +1 over this, just in case I ever need the flexibility later.
DEF really won't mean squat for DRK's. This back item (to me) is better than amemit due to the fact that it's 1 STR higher than an amemet. Even if you say "well it's only 1 point", 4 VIT is more than 3 VIT and even though it's just 1 point, it makes a difference.

P.S. And what is R.ATT for a DRK anyway?? That's all. And the reason why this is expensive, it's cause you only get this through ENM's. Amemet is only through Leather crafting. hence why this is expensive than Amemet.
I like how SE is making newer items for the level 70+ so they can stop using the lvl 50+ stuff therefore letting the prices drop. Then the lvl 50+ ppl can buy their stuff for their level. I mean how long did you hang onto to your level 21 Beetle Earrings+1? If you didn't use them for probably 20+ levels they wouldn't be as expensive.
I rarely sell stuff. I keep it for other jobs untill there is something better for that slot on all my jobs. I have so many damn mules keeping all my junk.
Since when is 1 less str for 1 more deff better? Amemit +1 gives +15 attack and +2 str and 8 def, this is +3str and +15 attack and 7 def, for a DD that extra 1 def is not better than 1 more str.
Well i can say for a mnk its a lil better. Im not sure about other jobs but i can say STR affects MNK atk more directly than atk+ and last time i checked MNK dont realy have all that great a R.atk weapon. (except chi-blast but that doesnt count since its an abiltiy). This mantle would be a smidge better than Amemit mantle just for the extra str+. But the con is that Amemit is multi jobbed, earlier on to wear, and has that sweet +15 R.Atk. IMO there both great. Cool part is This mantle is a BCNM drop meaning it can be free with use of seals!
