Phrygian is crafted. I'm no crafter though so I don't know what the recipe for it might be. You could try ask some goldsmith about it.

Don't forget evasion earring. I just re-edited my 1st reply to add it. If I recall right, it's usually better to increase Skill rather than flat evasion.

Edit: Elusive are a good alternative otherwise. They drop from a 60BCNM that can be soloed by some jobs, and droprate isn't too bad.

Musical Earring is also EVA+5, I play BRD a lot so it was a no brainer and a nice addition to my EVA build.
Only really practical if you still do Limbus or have a surplus of ABCs tho.

Although I have not tested it out personally, it should be a straight goldsmithing synth of 2x phrygian ingots with a wind crystal (I have made the ring recipe which uses fire, but not the earring).

Each ingot is 4x ore, so total outlay is 8x ores, which is a lot cheaper than most other eva gear out there.

Heed Ring is definitely worth getting... I use Rajas as my other ring in eva gear. No eva but I like the Subtle Blow, seeing as TP moves are usually the greater threat if I'm eva soloing.

even SH+1 and empress hairpin would give more evasion, you using that in abyssea?

thats mainly my casting utsu:ichi set or oshit set
spellcast nice enough to only equip rang if tp > 5
for full blown EVA solo id have xbow + bolts going and the racc from ohat/aurore is nice
dont see how e.pin beats ohat tho
i like having the 10 acc from ohat so im not wiffing
since i macro relic hat(dex5) for SA and aurore hat(agi4) for TA

spose i could dig thro storage now and find my SH+1 again, was put there when storage was becoming a issue

Also slither gloves are better than Derobade.

Are Raven hose still the highest Evasion you can get on THF though? I can't seem to find anything better atm

ocelot trousers are pretty godly for evasion builds. Somewhat annoying to get though.

Ooh, right! I totally forgot about those, thank you :)

The new Alcide gear seems like a very nice option to stack some Subtle Blow, and the fact you get no negative stats on the HQ makes it even more attractive.

For a pure Evasion/Subtle Blow build, I wonder, would this make the best compromise at lvl 90 ?

Just want to let you all know you should be selling those evasion earrings. 1 eva skill = 1 evasion. I know it is widely believe skill is better for whatever reason its believed that is the case I do not know, but I have personally parsed this and they are =.

I'm sure you will all rate me down and tell me I'm wrong because its widely known that skill is better, but I ask you where is the data to back up that eva skill is > evasion +.

And you will all say where is my data to back up what I am saying, well the parse was done a long time ago and I no longer have it, so don't believe me if you don't want but I am just trying to help.

No one knows this is the case, if they did it would have been proved aeons ago.

Should probably rethink the novia earring if you're tanking ;<... It might not matter a whole lot, but could just sack 2 evasion to keep that enmity+7 (over the earring)

yeah you're right if your fighting something with high evasion too or need ranged acc, o hat is the best choice. I was going by you calling this "thf eva" not "ranged acc" or "acc build."

Fug Beret even beats my suggestion, my *** needs to catch up lol

not like he ever claimed it to be the "best evar evasion onry" set, it's just what he uses. emp hairpin may have more evasion than ohat, but it also has -15hp, and as mentioned already has less utility-- even though we have satchel and now sack, you're still limited on immediately available inventory. aurore has less evasion, but more defense (and ice resist!), and the agi also helps with parry and now subtle blow. it's really no different than using a rajas over alert for sb vs eva.

Here I'll post my findings again. You can see that 1 Skill is NOT 1 Evasion. In fact, 1 Evasion is better than 1 Skill according to my results.

This is 1000 attack rounds on each: base, +10 evasion and +10 eva skill

Just doing my part to help :) I'd like to see eventually if +20 eva vs. +20 skill is the same difference in evade rate and if there is a cap. I doubt I'll ever get around to it though.
