Does anyone know what craft this is? I made the assumption that it was cloth, but it was not in guild guide for recipe. A fellow player told me it was smithing, which kind of makes sense hence the darksteel, but what level should my cloth craft be? Heh, also, another cool use for the full yasha get-up is to skill up parrying, if you add duel sai, that's a lot of parrying.

I just want to point out this typo by SE. This item has 5% Spell Interruption Rate down in the Japanese version, but at the same time 4% in the English version.
One of my LS mates brought it to my attention, when I was saying I had -65% spell interruption rate, and he only saw 64%.(I use the Japanese version of FFXI) After looking up the item online here, I found it really did say 4% in the English version, but 5% in my Japanese version.
As far as this being to "counteract" something, the BLM JSE isn't anything to write home about, neither are most pieces of the other sets of JSE. Like the AF sets there might be some individual pieces that are extremely useful, but taken as a whole this set definitely isn't the best available.
This is more likely just something for high-level players to strive after, and like I said as far as actual use goes people will pick and choose between many different sets to get the best performance.
I'm guessing all these new jses are to counteract them giving blms igqira and not giving other jobs new jse for lv.70+. The ninja's set though seems to be far overpowered, the rdm's and thf's set seems to be lacking though and the whm's seems to be little more than an advanced version of their AF.
