This isnt really "amazing" for rdm/nin in ballista, lol, acctually its not very good for rdm at all unless your farming a low level mob where you can just keep your hp low and stoneskin up, it might speed the process up. As a rdm soloing you want to have max hp the entire time, stoneskin up along with haste, protect, shell, enXXXX etc. So you wont find yourself with low hp very often, hopefully. Although I own this, Only because It looks Like plate mail and I like plate mail ^_^) and I have it macroed so if I get aggro It auto-equips in party.

This is currently (8-13-04) listed as White Mage useable. But, that is not the case. White Mages cannot equip Carapace gear.

What exactly does "latent effect" do?
Latent Affect works as following:
Level 30 Items (i.e. BCNM 30 earrings etc.)
-Latent effect is triggered by Current Subjob
- Example: ???/Nin will trigger "Latent Effect: +4 AGI"
Level 50+ Items: (i.e. Job Rings, etc.)
-Latent Effect is triggered by HP.
-If HP goes into "Yellow" or below that certain %, then the effect is triggered.
-Example: Tracker's Ring Latent Effect "Enmity -2" Will be triggered once HP is below a certain percent or in "yellow".

When your HP is yellow it kicks in, I am pretty sure it's yellow, but ya, it only kicks in when you've been hurt

not always, some latent affects are triggered by other things such as sub job. so it could be anything

There are other triggers, but this set is low HP.

I got this full set last night and immediately went out soloing DC's as rdm/nin.
First off - it really isn't that great. They offer the exact same amount of def as rdm AF under normal circumstances. The hands are definately cool for rdm since the latent on them kicks in the same time as my Fencer's Ring. And I didn't know this until I tried it out, but the hat kicks in at 50%, but not too useful as I'd rather have the Fastcast from AF. And the body isn't too hot either since it only kicks in at like 25% and if your ever this low then your probably doing something wrong. Plus AF body has spell interuption on it. Some people above stated they might want this for Converting. Wouldn't you rather have all of the +MP from the AF pieces for Converting than more Defense? I know I would.
So I think I am going to sell back the body and head pieces and just keep the gloves.
I like to take damage until I'm in yellow, and THEN put up stoneskin so that I can get the +5 enspell damage from Fencer's Ring. Since I'm in yellow anyways, the gloves should come in handy. But not all that great either. I lose +10 parry from AF and when subbing /nin, that comes in very handy also. So all in all, I give this a 'meh' for any rdm's out there. It all comes as a tradeoff.
