This also exposes an interesting gap in the Ala Mhigan and Doman Theatres. Garlemald KNOWS how to more effectively armor their Reapers against magic. The Gilded Magitek mount specifically mentions its gold plated armor turns spells more effectively and is now standard issue... yet I don't recall seeing a single one...
