Armour and weapons in dungeons of a lower level than the gear

[Zfz]

Be careful if you're going into Stone Vigil with the Cavalry set. While it is technically better than the Lv.40 quest gear, it does present one of the pulls as a difficult pull if your healer isn't up to the task (for example a fresh leveling healer who doesn't have all the gear, maybe even wearing level 10 accessories). But other than that, yes Stone Vigil is perfectly doable in the Cavalry set if you dodge what can be dodged and don't pull multiple packs at the same time. If a White Mage tells you that you can't do Stone Vigil in Cavalry, they're not telling the truth. I know because I leveled 2 PLDs and 1 WAR plus 1 WHM through that place and healed a PLD wearing half Lv.30 DPS gear through it with no deaths. Some White Mages just forget conveniently that they can Repose mobs (same effect as Sleep).

If you run into a Scholar with no Black Mages in your party, then...you better hope the Scholar is up to the task. Not that it isn't doable, though. You'd just run into more hairy moments if the Scholar is slacking. :3
