to be honest, this is the only piece of equipment that is making me halt my dark knight from leveling along with sniper rings, valkryies mask etc, im a level 41 almost 42 dark knight right now and i dont see how i can possibly afford this. if anyone can give me some advice on how to make the gil for this equipment then please tell me.
Maybe it'd be better just to get your smithing up to level 70 or so instead of just paying for it. I mean 1 million gil could probabily get your close. Then make your own.
i agree, mining and making your own darksteel and have a friend make the cloth's would save you alot, but its the damascus ingot that is the annoying part, on ramuh the haubergeon is about 1.6 milion, the damascus is about 1.35 milion. thouh, every gil you save is a profit ^^
Looking at the classes allowed to wear this, this is obviously a piece of chainmail. Which Dragoons have not been able to wear throughout the entire game. So this should be nothing new for you. Oh, except this is the coolest chainmail. And my War/Nin gets it ^^.
I do! why does other melee adv jobs get it and not drg? SE screws the drgs again! I have seen so many quit the game at this point because of this kind of stuff! They make it so impossible for a drg to get a pt after 50 =(
On Fairy server, haubergeon has consistently sold for 1.5 to mid 1.5 mill range. Three in history had sold for 1.6, which is high, but still reasonable, I suppose.
For 3 days on Fairy server, 1 haubergeon has sat on auction.
Elvin, 75 samurai, gives Yoshihiro, 62 black mage, 1.85 million to buy his haubergeon off the auction house, then Elvin immediately places it back on auction. I sent /tells to both and confirmed this.
Elvin has his on auction for 1.8 million.
Don't fall into this garbage price jacking scheme. Don't contribute to some BS rise in price because of one dude's greed.
If you are on Fairy server, wait for others to go up for sale.
******************************** EDIT - adding more to the saga
Elvin's haubergeon sells (for a second time) for over 1.8 mill. Again, I'm assuming this is from Elvin giving a friend money to buy his haubergeon to - again - have price jacked in auction history.
This causes some crafter to see the price of haubergeon and overpay by 100k to buy a damascus ingot that was up for sale.
So, now we got two haubergeons for sale - elvins overpriced one, and some crafter's overpriced one.
SO, overpriced damascus ingot, overpriced haubergeon, and eventually overpriced hauberk.
This armor is godly for Samurai (which is my main) but jesus christ! 1,550,000 thats like 2 weeks straight mining in Gusgan!! oh well, its a good feeling walking around with a almost 2 million gil armor on ^^ plus, allows me to use DEX rings so i hit critical more...
Selling at 1.05 - 1.2 million on Gilgamesh. I badly want this armor. Hauberk at 69 is only another 50k more, so once you get this baby it basically covers your 69 body equip too. Very nice.
Now if I could only get that last Ochiudo's Kote to drop...
I realy want this armor for my WAR.. I wonder if i ever will aford it though.. lucky my War is not that high atm.. just need to start mining all day long!
The clothcraft level required is 65. Not a very cheap recipe at all. This item is also used in the recipe to make Hauberk, the level 69 armor that has the same stats, but -10 Evasion instead of -20.
the cost is due to the damascus ingot, fortunatly people on my server have found easy ways of obtaining this, so the price is crashing, i expect to see it down to 1.6 million by the end of the week.
