That sounds a bit like bologna tbh, especially when you very well know you can't parry with a shield equipped.
That's besides the fact I've never heard of such a thing, but by the same definition wouldn't the mages and explorers set provide some sort of set bonuses as well.

There's actually 2 separate explorer's sets. Tabard + Sabatons which gives a damage mitigation set bonus and Bandanna + Moccasins + Breeches + Earring which gives crit AP. The Mage's set reduces the MP cost of AOE spells by a small amount.
Uhhh this is pretty common knowledge guys we've known about this stuff since 2 weeks after AV/CC came out.
Might be because I've rarely seen anyone wear more than maybe one piece from any set so it doesn't spark enough interest for me to inquire and ask about why they're wearing it.
For that matter I can't seem to locate any info on the hidden set bonuses either.

Did you actually buy that lol
Not really, considering most of the equipment that drops from AV/CC just plain sucks save for a select few pieces for certain jobs. It wouldn't convince me to buy them if they did have a hidden set bonus, because I seriously doubt any hidden effects could make up for the gears shortcomings.

He was asking if I was actually buying what you were saying, not buying those mostly PoS gear that drops like candy from AV/CC.
