Anyone ever seen the webcomic, "Party Hard!" on [link=null]www.vgcats.com[/link]? Notice the little tarutaru named "Eldrayyd" wearing this hat? Well, the other day, I noticed that... I HAVE NO MULE!!!! So I got to thinking... maybe a little taru will work. So then I made a taru and named him Eldrayyd, and in spite of the fact he's a black mage, when he hits level 6, I'm giving him this hat. It looks kewl.
Yes indeed, this is probably one of my most worn articles of clothing as a WHM. Lately though I've been sticking with Seer's Crown instead since I'm so damn bored of this thing. Still, very helpful, if a little unstylish.
I agree. When I don't have this on, I sometimes have to cast my Enfeebs as many as three times. I was wearing a Siver Hairpin for the MP in Yhoater Jungle and I got a PT with a 2nd whm in it. I switched to this because I was casting the Enfeebs and, hoila! Instantaneous difference in success rate and duration of each cast. I recommend mnd, mnd, mnd when filling that role for your pt. (i.e. no rdm)
Ladies and gentlemen... we have the understatement of the century. Discounting the garrison sallet (yeah right...) this is the single best WHM headpiece until Silver Hairpin for non-tarutaru and until... good lord, I can't find anything arguably better for a taru-taru whm until Silk Hat +1, and even then, it's just for the Def boost. Not even worth thinking about, seeing as the Healer's Cap (AF Head) is available only one level later.
MAYBE the Electrum Hairpin would be worth using, but the MND would probably be more beneficial.
