Has anyone ever heard about or tested this item’s or its predecessor the Earth Doublet’s ability to decrease a mob’s resistance to earth-based spells and abilities? A bard said he uses a Gaia Doublet to decrease resistance to elegy.
You have to kill Yaa Haqa the Profane (Yagudo NM, BLM-type) in Castle Oztroja and hopefully get an Earth Doublet as the drop. From there, you either need to have someone with a very high level of Clothcraft or if you can do it yourself, craft the Earth Doublet into the Gaia Doublet. =)
For anyone that wonders, it looks a lot similar to the Brigandine, but without that horrible checkerboard pattern on the front, otherwise it looks like a normal doublet but with a darker and more sleek color. It's kinda spiffy, I use one ('til I get my tabard anyway) =)
