Brutal. Brutal before anything else. Then Boxer's, then Loquacious. Loq Earring is kinda worthless, outside of the high MP. Boxer's is obviously one of the best for tanking, besides Shadow Mantle, but Brutal is no doubt THE best earring in the game for anyone that has ever melee'd anything. Seriously, it's that good.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest something different...

How about a Brutal Earring?

PLD being your only job at 75.... get a Boxer's first.

brutal earring is pretty sub-par for PLD after looking through other available options (unless, of course, you're trying to be one of those silly DD PLD's..... >.>)

I'd go with what serves more use overall rather than one piece that is only good for one job.

In ur case, id go with boxer's for ur pld then loq. 4 fast cast mp etc. then brutals. imo if pld is ur main, brutals doesnt do much 4 it @ all. it will be nice 4 blu i guess (i personally use magnetic earring instead of brutals). But back to the point +10 shield skill is a huge boost 4 ur pld so @ least get boxer's 1st then u can do watever u like after. lol Gl n cg on sea access.

If you're Elvaan or Galka, get Loquacious first. If not, Boxer's. This is assuming PLD will be the main usage, of course.

I ended up buying 150 coins got loq. and boxer's but I'm also waiting to find 75 more so in the end I couldn't help myself and I'm getting all three.

If Blu had been 75 I would have gotten both earrings 1st but pld being 75 I got mantle and loq instead. Thank you for the help, >.> I just couldn't choose without some help.

Why ask for peoples' opinions if you're not going to do what they recommend anyway?

This thread was clearly just a "YAY I GOT SEA ACCESS" thread.
There's no other explaination.

Meh my link-shell also told me what i should do, i ended up just going with the mantle and loq. due to some other opinions. sorry >.> But i did realize from what was being said that i should go ahead and just grab all three items instead of just holding off as i had planned. In any case its also helpful to know what others think.
