pld/rdm with a fair amount of spell interrupt down can rescast stoneskin mid-melee. Thr phalanxed stoneskinned pld recasting buffs mid combat is pretty crazy. rober crabs take half a battle to cut thru stoneskin. With VT lamia its still absorbs 3 or more attacks.
JonKustes is correct, even tho the breeches say +4 STR, they give +5 STR when equiped... i thought i was going crazy cuz for a long time i couldnt figure out where i was getting the extra +1 STR from ><;;
MysteryTour is actually correct oddly enough. Got them tonight and even though they say STR+4 they are actually STR+5 when equipped. Must have been a mistake on SE's part >.>;.
af2 set is obtained in dynamis very hard to get its been around since the impliment of dynamis around april or may update. Relic are teh name of the weapons that drop off from the mobs u need to upgrade those to get the elite weapon later on.
I wish there was a -Spell Interruption for Plds at lower levels (a good one that wouldn't require sacrificing vit or hp). That alone makes me want these.
