- By no means a fully functional set.
- Fit as many examples of Shield-Skill-focused gear as I could think of.
Enmity (General) Sets
- General use enmity set(s) for non-specific actions/abilities.

- Again, consider this set as more of a bookmark.
- Very reasonable and obtainable as an entry set.
|
- Abj. 119 sets are Exclusive only.
- So you can have multiple copies of individual pieces in order to suit your needs.
- All 119 Abjurations can now be bought for 400 Domain Invasion points each from Zurim.
- A significantly higher amount of +enmity.
- Note:
|
- HQ set.
- A significantly higher amount of +enmity over the first set.
- Foot Slot Alternative: Augmented Yorium Sabatons (Enm+10, PDT+4, M.Eva+20)
- This HQ set is just a benchmark and not indicative of the next step forward.
|
Flash (Magic Enmity) Sets
- Enmity sets for use with Flash.
- Flash/Magic Enmity sets are slightly more complicated than the above Enmity (General) Sets, balancing enmity with recast time.

Fast Cast +18%
Enmity +49~53

- This set isn't a large deviation from the above general enmity set.
|
- See above set comment about Abjuration 119 pieces.
- A noticeable increase in Fast Cast and Enmity over the first set.
|
- HQ set.
- This HQ set is just a benchmark and not indicative of the next step forward.
|
Phalanx Sets
- General equipment sets to further enhance the damage mitigation effect of Phalanx on the Paladin.
- Enhancing Magic on Paladin (with merits) caps at 350 skill before gear.
- Phalanx potency caps at 500 Enhancing Magic skill.
- Phalanx is roughly 1 damage absorbed every 29 Enhancing Magic skill.
- Which is why "Phalanx+" gear is always better as it is added as a flat dmg reduction after the enhancing skill is counted up, for example if you have -32 from skill and 20 from gear it would become -52.
- As the formula for Phalanx floors the result, keep in mind that overshooting or undershooting a threshold means you're likely wasting stats. Keep this in mind when gearing as you might be able to substitute +enhancing skill items that are not contributing.
- Master Levels will change the skill tiers for the player, but that is more of a concern for the Advanced Section Magic Casting Sets. (11.4.6)
- If a Red Mage (or a SCH/RDM for Accession + Phalanx) is in the party with you, the "phalanx received" will also effect the potency of Phalanx II when cast on you.

- Hand and foot slots can be skipped if you can get Souveran.
- Note:
|
- Souveran Hands and Feet have a default Phalanx+4 attached.
- All 119 Abjurations can now be bought for 400 Domain Invasion points each from Zurim.
|
- Souveran+1 Hands and Feet have a default Phalanx+5 attached.

Reprisal Sets
- General equipment sets to further enhance the damage mitigation effect of Reprisal on the Paladin.
- Reprisal increases block rate by 50% of your current block rate. (Current block rate × 1.5)
- For Priwen: Current block rate × 3.
- Also increases current shield skill by +15%.(x1.15)
- The skill bonus is based on your current total shield skill at any given time, not statically calculated upon casting.
- Reprisal no longer requires maximum HP swaps.
- My suggestion: Focus on spell duration & enmity, with a bit of Fast Cast thrown in for good merit.
|
|
|
|
- Very reasonable and obtainable as an entry set.
|
- See above comments about Abj. 119 gear.
|
- HQ set.
- This HQ set is just a benchmark and not indicative of the next step forward.
|
Enlight Sets
- General equipment sets to further enhance the damage of Enlight and by extension Enlight II.
- Similar to Dark Knight's Endark, a Paladin's Enlight spell comes with a secondary effect: Enhanced physical accuracy based upon Divine Magic skill at time of cast.
- Divine Magic on Paladin (with merits and job points) caps at 440 before gear.
- The pool of Divine Magic Skill gear a Paladin has access to is limited.
- Not all gear listed here is necessary but is listed none-the-less as honorable mentions.
|
|
|
|
- Very reasonable and obtainable as an entry set.
|
|
- This set is just a benchmark and not indicative of the next step forward.
|
Fast Cast Sets
- Pretty self-explanatory but general equipment sets to reduce spell casting & spell recast times.
- Maximum achievable Fast Cast is 80%.
- Recast reduction is half of the cast time reduction, rounded down to the nearest whole percentage.
- Thus, Fast Cast's maximum contribution to recast reduction is 40%.
|
|
|
|
- Enchntr. Earring +1 may set you back some in Gil if you were to buy it, however, but it is an easily accessible option.
- Also obtainable as a possible reward for successful completion of Walk of Echoes battlefield #10 (Surged Only).
|
- NQ Aburation-based set.
- See above comments about Abj. 119 gear.
|
- Third set may seem a bit out of order as it carries pieces from lvl 99 content.
- Enif Cosciales' Fast Cast value is 8%.
- As stated above, this set is just a benchmark and not indicative of the next step forward.
|
"Spell Interruption Rate Down"
- Fairly self-explanatory but equipment sets designed to reduce likelihood of having spell casting interrupted by physical damage towards the user.
- For situations where Fast Cast just isn't going to cut it and you NEED to get a specific spell off.
- "SIRD" is a bit more advanced than the above mentioned Fast Casts sets. Listing it none-the-less for reference.
- It is possible to reach -100% Spell Interruption Rate though gear and/or a combination of gear and merits.
- Due to how Spell Interruption Rate is calculated, user must have a total of -102% Spell Interruption Rate Down.
- As mentioned, Spell Interruption Rate can also be increased by merits.
- Each increase to this merit category will grant you a 2% Spell Interruption Rate reduction, for a possible total of -10%.
- It costs 15 merits to fully upgrade (1>2>3>4>5).
|
|
|
|
- Capped with 2 merits invested for -103%.
- See above comments on Alluvion Skirmish armor Augmenting.
- Audumbla Sash obtained in exchange for 1,000 Domain Invasion points to Zurim.
|
- Capped with 0 merits invested.
|
- WELL overcapped! But listing all pieces to give you a choice and familiarity for various spells.
- Honorable mention to Loricate Torque +1. Fully augmented: DEF+45, SIRD-5%
|

Sets by Brahmsz

- The following sets reflect an Elvaan with full HP merits. Non-Mastered.
- No weapon(s) or shields will be included.

|
- This set doesn’t deviate much from the above 119 HQ Souveran Set.
- It’s Weapon/Shield agnostic, and offered an all-round defense build.
- Please refer to the below Idle Set II (Odyssey).
|
- This set puts a strong emphasis on increasing shield blockrate.
- Fair warning, the head and legs require Dark Matter augments. The highest I’ve personally managed to see/attain is ‘’’blockrate +9%’’’ but assume a possible cap of +10%.
- This build has a potential Chance of Successful Blockrate of +36%.
- Augemented Zwazo Earring +1 would bring that total to +39% in exchange for the HP+100/DT-3% from augmented Odnowa +1.
- An Alternate leg swap is Arjuna Breeches for +3% block chance.

|
|
|
|
- With the advent of Odyssey, this set appears to be the next step forward.
- Introduction of Sortie post-Odyssey makes capping Damage Taken even easier.
- Offers higher Physical Defense, Magic Evasion, and Magic Defense Bonus over most anything else.
|
- With an increasing focus on defensive measures (both physical and magical), this set emphasizes shield skill+ over blockrate+.
- While I personally still like block chance+ gear, Master Levels and gear creep itself continue to make Reisenjima-based gearsets that much more outdated.
- Foresti Earring can substituted in the Left Ear for further skill+.
- Due to the current rarity of Chevalier's Earring +2, substitute neck slot to Knight's Beads +1/2 and utilize Thureous/Foresti earrings.

|
Situational Sets
- Situational awareness goes a long way...
- Sets herein may or may not see as much use but are nice to have around when the circumstances come up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The Crepuscular set is the Item Level version to these, but with a far lower droprate.
|
- I prefer to lean on Holy Waters over waiting on a Cursna.
- Ring slot can easily be replaced with Eshmun's Ring if you prefer Cursna Received instead.

|
|
|
|
- Mainly just the Maximum Enmity set (see below) with Cab. Gauntlets +3 swapped in.
- +2 is enough to gain the Dispel additional effect.
- Dispel effect on the gauntlets is 95% accuracy.
|
- To my knowledge, Vocane Ring is the only way to reach a full +6 in Knock Back Reduction gear.
- There are multiple back slot options & the single leg slot option.
|
- Not capped on PDT.
- Reminder, "Resist [Status]" gear is halved against NM's.

- Sparked by conversations around Odyssey fights and Enmity swaps.
- Currently, to the best of my knowledge the best M.Eva/MDB focused Enmity+ swaps you can wear.
- Neck, R.Ring & Ammo slots negotiable depending on HP preferences.
- Assumes you're in the top ranked Unity.
|
Hybrid Sets
- Designed to contribute damage safely prioritizing HP > DT/PDT/MDT > Accuracy/Attack > STP/DA/TA/QA. In that order.

|
|
|
|
- The primary function for this build is to contribute damage without sacrificing much HP.
- The damage you put out won't be spectacular but whatever you're facing's damage won't be either. lol
|
- A more realistic hybrid build.
- Sacrifices some HP, DT/PDT/MDT for STP/DA/TA.
|
- Unrealistic expectations. A fun build non-the-less!
|
|
|
|
|
Weaponskill Sets
- Here's where things start to get into the weeds. "How much of my defenses am I willing to sacrifice for bigger numbers?"
- Insert Thanos.gif "Everything."

|
- Doubles as a General Enmity Set.
|
|
|
- Requiescat is already a poopy weaponskill...
- You can quite legitimately get away with just filling in as much Acc/Att and Mult-Attack as possible and call it a day.
|
Magic Evasion Sets
- Resisting Status Ailments as well as Non-Elemental damage such as Mijin Gakure.
- Secondary benefit being Magic damage and Breathe damage reduction via resistance check.
- ie: 1/2 resist (50% damage taken); 1/4 resist (25% damage taken); 1/8 resist (12.5% damage taken).
- 1/8 resistance tier on elemental damage is also a possibility if Magic Evasion is high enough and a modicum amount of elemental resist is stacked on as well.
- Note: "Resist All" and "Resist [Insert Ailment]" gear's effectiveness is automatically halved against NM's.
|
|
|
|
- With the exception of gear from the Volte Armor Set, this set is fairly simple to put together.
- Don't forget you can equip an augmented Priwen for an additional M.Eva+50.
- Skip to sets IV & V if you have Odyssey: Sheol Goal (Atonement's 3 & 4) access.
|
- Next step up from first set.
- Skip to sets IV & V if you have Odyssey: Sheol Goal (Atonement's 3 & 4) access.
|
- Alternate body swap: Fully Augmented Obviat. Cuirass +1 for an equal amount of M.Eva.
- Skip to sets IV & V if you have Odyssey: Sheol Goal (Atonement's 3 & 4) access.

- Odyssey gear, particularly Sakpata has changed the standard.
- Get access to Kalunga and embrace the blurple.
|
- Nyame set has equal Magic Evasion and HP.
- Has lower MDB but has much higher INT/MND.
- Accessible after defeating Bumba.
|
Magic Casting Sets
- Keep in mind you tend to lose HP while swapping. Especially for FC, so add in HP+ gear where you can or feel that you should.
|
|
|
|
- This should be the maximum amount of Fast Cast a Paladin can wear.
- Enif Cosciales grants FC+8%.
- As seen above, this set drops your HP... hard.
- Pick and choose which pieces are worthwhile.
|
- Here as a reminder of all the options available.
- Also, a quick reminder that Spell Interruption Rate can be merited!
|
- Can be used with the Protect & Shell line, Phalanx, Reprisal, and Crusade, if self-cast, respectively. (If you so choose.)
- Can be pushed further with an augmented Ajax +1 shield for an additional 10%*.
- *Gear with Augmented Enhancing Magic Duration is a separate term from the non-augmented variety and will act multiplicatively.

- When casting under Divine Emblem, a Fast Cast Augment cape is preferable.
|
- Flash SIRD set can still reach capped Spell Interruption Rate by swapping in Chev. Cuirass +3, Chev. Sabatons +3.
- Enmity gain of 17, Fast Cast gain of 4%.
- These swaps would also drop HP by approximately 71 HP.

|
- A drop of 100 HP in exchange for uninterruptible self-cure bombing.
|
|
|
|
- Reprisal no longer requires maximum HP swaps.
- My suggestion: Focus on spell duration & enmity, with a bit of Fast Cast thrown in for good merit.
