These are best for doing Promyvion, the monsters there - the empty- will be intimidated by your presence which sometimes stuns them and you will do more damage to them, I don't know if the effect stacks with more gear on but it would be great if it did. I am: 1/1 on Promyvion-Dem 0/2 on Promyvion-Mea 0/0 on Promyvion-Dem I really want to get them done so i can go to Tavnazian Safehold and to the Aqueducts and get subligar for my JSE armour.
empty killer means that it has an effect of "Beast Killer" except instead of it being good against bests, its good against the new type of mobs EMPTINESS!!! you can see pictures of them at the FFXI site in the expansions preview thing
I believe empty killer pertains to some of the creatures in the expansion. If it does though, i'm very interested in getting any item with empty killer on it now ^_^
so.... does anyone have a clue what empty killer is and how'd you get it??? to me it sounds like the edges in battle certain jobs get, like a drk's arcane edge or something like that... I have heard that there are no new classes.
I bought the shade tiara to play around with in promyvion-mea, I noticed a decent damage increase by about 10+ points from switching between centurions visor and shade tiara. Also about 1/8 mobs would be "intimidated" by my presence. I'm yet unsure as if these bonus will inrease with the more "shade" equipment you have. The only down side to this is that one time the mob i was fighting started running from me when it hit low hp, was kinda anoying. Other than that i sugest at least one peice of this equipment for DD'S going into promyvion. I will futher test the stackability of these effects and post back.
i got this, and the harness, it looks like a decorated black?/darkgreen? jumpsuit type of thing with some armor plates on, though not as big as beetle/bronze harnesses
Looking at a japanese website, http://moogle.yappo.jp/bougu.txt.html, the stats are Lv.25 WAR/MNK/RDM/THF/PLD/DRK/BST/BRD/SAM/NIN/DRG, Def +14, Enhances "Empty Killer" (?). This is not confirmed, but I hope it helps.
