Is it possible that this craft has a bonecrafting requirement? Possibly only 1 so that people aren't getting skill-ups? Because I'm having a hard time explaining the lack of HQs when I regularly HQ the other Seer's and Noct pieces. I only suggest bonecrafting because the Seer's Crown is bonecrafting, so it would put this set's headpiece in line with Seer's, which is very comparable in terms of crafting.
Did any other stat go up while you were trying to make it? Maybe there's a another hidden sub to it... Or maybe whoever posted the information didn't know what he/she was talking about. It is a level 30 item after all... and pretty good... I mean, the nomad's mantle is also +2 AGI as a HQ, and thats a lvl 87 craft!
I find it hard to believe that a level 30 item could have a craft skill of 20...
If you dont want to spend the time to hunt down the VE and try to get the Empress Hairpin or spend the insane amount of gil for the Emperor Hairpin this probably the best thing for thfs and rngs until you can get a better piece of head equipment. and also it looks about 100 times better lol :)
umm, ive seen this thing around for a long time, ive quit and started again, and reached the lvl where i can use this, and it is just the same as before, why is this in the updated gear??
got the full Noct +1 set a few days ago for 250k on Fenrir. very sweet. combined bonuses give you +2 Agi +2 Dex +7 Ranged Accuracy and a bunch (probably 11) bonus to resist dark. looks fantastic.
I pray that Casnik confused this thing with something else... These go for 45k on Fairy. All items except the Dobulet +1 should be around 50k, and the Doublet should be just under 100k.
