Set Bonus is +5 to attack, when both Gothic items are worn. Set Bonus is working.

Aside from getting them, which may prove timetaking if you're unlucky, this set is great for tanks not only becase of the enmity boost you will achieve but also because of the additional Ice Spike effect which is not 100% but has a high proc rate. Having used the set for WS on some DD jobs I noticed around 1/3 proc rate while being hit during WS gear swap alone.

Very nice piece for PLD, and fairly easy to obtain with a lvl75 job. Nothing comes close to these for awhile, get them!

..::WARNING!::..
this item is significantly harder to get then you could image. the story's you have been hearing about these being hard to get... TRUE!
i have spent 2 days getting these
by time i got them, i LITERALLY had 200k from gigas and the occasional shadow dragon, 14 hickory lumber.. just a reminder that is a .9% drop rate... so at least 1,400 giga were killed that's not including the masses of eyes i killed. in the end. 2 days of farming for these 200k gil, enugh hickory shields to get the entire LS a NM poper. and the gauntlets. hard to judge. if you don't have 48+ hours to devote farming for a single peace of armor.. don't waste time.
also. the pop rate on the chests in xarcabard are FAR worse then else ware. usually its 1/10 xarcabard its like 1/50 mobs drops one and of that 1 its 1/5 a brown one and other times its blue...

I farmed this before dynamis started. Ive got them in the 3rd Treasure. It is possible, that you can find 2 in the same treasure.

1/1 on these in xarc while waiting for dynamis, wasn't looking for them either. Neat drop, and first brown chest I opened. Too bad as a 75war they are almost useless to me.

Auto-translated as "Gothic Gaunlets". I don't know if this is why the set doesn't work.
