    Can we get a reskin of Homam instead of Lv7 leather legs and feet or that same turban we've been wearing since 75?

    As far as the explaining of the gear by the previous user... Why has blu gone from middle eastern to upper middle eastern desert traveler wear? PLD got the Ultraman treatment, NIN got the amazing armor, THF got some assassins creed going on, and WHM got the old school whm look etc etc etc

    This tragedy makes one look at our gear and think "Wow... those hands and feet sure are a great waste of stats... sorta like those pants i wore in the dunes..." instead of "WoW! nice gear!" when in reality the body isn't all that great stat wise since it's basically a Mirage Jubbah +2 and some tiny bit of haste. I don't even want to bring up the stats other classes get there

    Fix: Toss casting time stats to hands, MND/INT MAB/MACC to body, swap the head for a zuchetto, and announce the return of the Homan or Mirage.

    Also, please add haste to hand...
    seriously...

    The AF3 head looks nothing like a Walahra turban, lol

    A lot of jobs didn't get haste on their hands.

    It looks just like a turban dude lol it just has tampax wings and a marriage veil over the face part and they tossed in some bandages. If i didn't replace the .dat a few hours ago i'd mspaint it to show how it looks sorta like how they did af3 boots and leather boots.

    The reason not having haste on the hands seems lame is because we'll still have to go to sea for the best hands or camp the AH with a few million gil. I do feel sorry for nin too but they get some stats and can wear about 4 or 5 other items where as blu only has dusk, homam, and a WS hand. While all that mnd is nice, i believe it should have been shoved onto the body slot since yigit is still a good item for most of the magic damage spells we cast in comparison.

    Hands are great for magical spells (Charged Whisker, anyone?) and reducing recast on spells such as Winds of Promyvion, Occultation if /notnin, etc. The MND is nice for Plenilune Embrace/Magic Fruit too since MND hands/feet could outdo the Serpentes set.

    I don't see the problem seeing as we don't need more Haste...

    Are we talking about the same body piece here O_o that body is amazing.

    Just use Ocelot Gloves or stuff for Haste hands, we cap with it so it's not a big deal. It's not like we can't cap haste or anything...

    The body piece is pretty good actually, 2 tick refresh, with a bit of haste, our own fast cast and ACC...not too much to complain about....now about our hands....

    I do find it a bit disappointing we didn't get any MP bonuses on our sets. I could always use an additional 50-100mp, especially since the game is going to shift outside of abyss more than likely.

    Hands are great for nuking, but would of prefer a good full-time piece for them instead of situational, either way I use 3 of the 5 pieces. Hands and Feet i gear swap for sanguine blade mainly.

    RaenRyong the point wasn't all a bout haste. Blu doesn't need to stop at 25% haste and if anyone disagrees then they need to brush up on haste and weapon delay. The issue is dispersed stats and terrible optimization at best. Unless wiki isn't accurate atm whiskers is dex (wut?) and int modified the mnd doesn't look so helpful imho (even for healing an extra 20hp per cast on our most mana wasting healing spell). I still say ocelot gloves look something a mahou shoujo fan would like.

    Ever have someone /tell you your NINJA gloves are cute??


    *EDIT* 45 sec recast on occultation isn't bad if you consider the use of headbutt and whirl of rage if feasible in whatever situation you are in. Headbutt is like 6 secs per a cast so my shadows take forever to go down as blu/dnc but i see where you are going with that.

    Getting into a situation where someone would like to use my blu for magic damage (or even i would use my blu for magic damage) would be one of those days no rdms, blms, or even sch are seeking or available tbh.
