Appearantly some guys was selling all his lvl ~20 equipment on his WAR, and all of it for 1k EACH. He sold the whole set for 1k each piece, and im the one who got it! (the most i've had on me at once is ~40k, so this is great for me, although it may not be as big a deal for others.) Too bad i didn't get his Neckchopper (I think he was also selling this for 1k, but somebody bid all their money on it (it was an odd number) about 9,287 or something random like that).
So now at lvl 21, the second job through here has Beetle set+1 and Garrison Hose/Boots (first time just Garrison). Just a little while ago this didn't seem anywhere near reach.
does the -3 ice a factor in the mobs you fight in quifim? the bone harnes+1 isnt good because of bombs adn gobbies, teh minus on fire can kill, what about this set?
The stats you see on armor like the ones above are resistance stats. The higher resistance you have, the less damage you will take from attacks of the element you have a resistance of.
So because s' explosions are of the fire element, you would want a high fire+ stat, not ice, or whatever you were trying to say.
And as far as Qufim goes, just because the place is covered in ice doesn't make this set bad. I can't think of any skills used by enemies in the Qufim area that are of the ice element. Not to mention, 18 resistance isn't THAT much, but it does make a noticable difference. Besides, if you're a tank, especially NIN, the evasion is a great bonus.
