Zanken's Earring

Player Questions Started Last reply 16 posts
I have a few questions I hope some people can answer for me.
If you are not lvl 76 and wear the earring is the only penalty mdef reduction, or do the effects of like vr not work?
It says vampric rage, is that vr4 or what lvl and does it stack with the buff vr?
sa on anything dont work unless your the grade to use it.
kk, thank you for the info^^
Since when? I remember Lloth receiving set bonus for an out-of-grade set (Demon).

Of course, that's not an SA - but then again, neither is the effect on Zaken's Earring.

Do note though that wearing any over-graded armour or jewellery will make you run noticably slower.

Good job giving false info.

Theres no reduction that way. Theres a significant movement decrease for wearing items outside of your grade. Weapons have an Accuracy deduction. SA's will work for any grade.

So anyone can wear Zakens Earring. But if they aren't S grade, they will be running extremely slow with it equipped. No M.Def reduction though.

Don't know about armor and jewelry but weapon SA's definitely do not work out of grade.
neither do armour and if armour and weapons dont ill bet money on boss jewels.

It was patch in c3 because people would power level their alts to 40 with bgrade items so your acc is gimped lets give a bow with guidance on it.

Please think before you speak you dont get bonuses below your grade.

PS mdef isnt an SA its the property of the item.
Hm no, SAs donot work regardless on grade. Mana up Crystal Staff is not working for my 31 Artisan.
There was a patch way back to disable Weapon SA if the user was below the weapon's grade.

Not sure if they did same with Armor or Jewels but I would think they've done same with armor/jewels.
to OP!!

I did ask a similar question as well and i was told that the Bonuses do stack with other buffs.
The only thing you need to remember is if u have 2 of those Zanken's Earring for example, it will not double the bonuses.

Other then that they stack... wich is good, else they wouldnt have that much use i guess.

Cheers!!
I can confirm that the SA's don't work if ur not the grade. I put the antharas earring on my lvl 40 sub and I didn't get the +mp that the SA gives.

Hmm wonder if your from kain
****, I didn't see that patch note, sorry all lol. I remember back in prelude you could put demon on a level 1 and his hp would be negative. be infinite and could be used to tank raid bosses with reflect damage (too bad there wasnt much opportunity in that regard lol).

I remember back in prelude



this is a huge missteak I hear way too often!!

People keep tring to compair C5 L2 to C2 or prelude vertions of L2.

It's really bad cause so many people don't have a clue to the changes thats occured...and ventx I'm shocked don't know cause shes been simi around for a while now.

I can conferm for sure, that when I delvled on the PTS I lost the ablity to use my jwellery and got a reduction in run speed and a few others.

while tring to lvl my main on live I tried to use DS with focus, not only was the SA disapled but I got a loss in acc, and run speed, atk speed.

If you wear 2 of the same type of jwellery. you get the effects of one but not the other...IE: 2 zankens you get 1 the other is null. but boss jwellery stacks with each other. IE: antharas, zankens, ant ring, core ring so on.

. SA's will work for any grade.



So why dont i recieve acumen bonus when i put my Som Sa acumen in the greedy hands of my trader lvl 3??
