[Destrier Beret] Can we get a modified latent effect for us not so newbies?

[Juri_Licious]

I mean this hat is absolutely amazing, but it's really only useful for newbies.
A brand new hat and all it's really for is just a help to level to 30 which isn't hard at all.(And rake in new players)

How about about a better latent effect for us Oldbies?

Like, Latent effect 30 and below the default.

Latent effect 31 and higher
Increases movement speed
Adds Regen and Refresh Effect

So you take off Auto Reraise and the skill ups while keeping movement speed and regen/refresh. So it has two latent effects pretty much.

I'd be happy with just making the movement speed effect permanent.

A constant regen and refresh effect in the hat slot would still be pretty godly, honestly. I can't think of many hats even now that have refresh in the hat slot, much less both refresh and regen. The enhanced movement thing too, yea, no hat piece in the game has that right now period. (To my knowledge at least..)

Mages would benefit from it most, admittedly.. but I could see most people using it until the higher level range, when gear actually gets good enough to replace the constant refresh\regen. Movement Speed is irreplaceable though, and pretty much everyone that bought it would be swapping it in at any and every level to just get around places faster. I'm pretty sure they don't want to allow that. (Not to say I wouldn't love to have these buffs 31+, but I don't see it happening)

Wivre Hairpin. Go get one. And it's not like Regen is important.

I know gear has it. I didn't say I didn't know of any, I said I didn't know of many. And there really aren't too many that have it in the head slot. That's also level 68, whereas we're talking about something here that would have it from 1-99.

It really doesn't matter since leveling outside of abyssea is easy, we didn't need the refresh before, why suddenly now it's a huge deal? Not to mention most people go from 30->90 before gearing so it's a moot point about arguing about lower level gear. You don't need to have many options, think about W. Turban at 75, it was pretty much the best TP head in the game for years. Just one item, for many jobs. Best slot possible. So it's not like Wivre Hairpin being the best idle hat for mages is anything new.

Well obviously they don't mind it because there's a ton of movement speed items in the game.

We also were sure we'd never see past level 75. Just saying, at this point, anything is possible. So it's not such a great idea to be "sure" of anything. Except maybe we can be certain we'll never see... um.. okay I can't think of anything that I would be sure they'd never do. The whole level cap raise thing was pretty much the ultimate thing we knew they would never touch. I won't even dismiss /99 sub jobs or 100% movement speed items, etc crazy stuff.

Oh! Ninja will never get Jub Ni. They'll get Utsusemi San before that. There you go -.-

You make a decent enough point, there's movement speed stuff already in the game yes. But I don't know, that stuff isn't freely obtained in the game - this hat is free ingame (yes I know it costs real money, but that's beside the point - it requires no time investment to obtain) and what is being suggested here would make it usable in the entire level range, something that can be said for very few other items.

[Juri_Licious]

I and hoping all I can hope that they do something with this hat for people 31 and higher.
Plus the hat doesnt look bad at all either.

[Unaisis]

Well at least we know that improved skill rate is possible on gear~ lets hope that armor like that are rewards for those Ground of Valor things
