Why would you give us a blue magic piece with no magic stats and then -4 to str...

To increase the accuracy/potency of Magical Spells... ie Diamondhide, Drainkiss, Sleep spells, magical nukes etc?

Meh, -4str but have you not looks at all the pieces that have a much larger +str than things we can currently wear? I won't sweat -4 str when it can be made up elsewhere. 5 BMS is better I believe.

How about stuff like Hysteric Barrage that doesn't have a STR modifier? Dex and Blue Magic skill is probably better than swapping in Accuracy gear.

You can gain that STR-4 and AGI-4 easily back in other slots. That +5 to skill more than likely makes up for the loss.

That is +29 to skill right there. And your getting that STR loss back not to mention an increase to sword as well.

dont forget you have to add in the fact that your also losing stats by not putting on str dex on your hands.
enkidu hands example, +8, this, -4, thats a total of 12 stats for str/dex spells.
I agree , slap in the face.

I use an Alky's Bracer's in that slot, so making up the +15 Str may be a little hard.

On the bright side, +9 Dex on Alky's so maybe this could be a situational piece for purely Dex mod spells.
