No way they would give it matk.

Only 1 item with that and that much for jobs it matters on is rather overpowered.

Oh god please no :( trials to do Trials would be evil.

I think if anything having it +14 (double) to all stats at 99 wouldn't be too broken. It would once again be the best head for its Situations (maybe not nuking/etc for some jobs like it used to be, for RDM(?) I dont remember).

But going from +7 at 75, to +14 at 99 Could be doable, But I really don't mind if it stays obsoleted, The joy from Maat's cap in my eyes was leveling the job, seeing the game through all aspects (I leveled most of them in MMM before Abyssea came out =x).

I'm sure SE will probably make it Augmentable through Synergy like our 75 Junk, But We probably can't hope for anything more than that >.>; They made Exping so easy i think they pretty much said "Eh, *** it"
nah 14 isnt enough. when maats came out it had to blow away everything possible. think of Wyvern +1 and demons +1 or whatever you wore and loved back in the day

So Maats would need to beat twilight in theory thats where I got the +20 from, but even 16+ all stats all jobs would be enough for me to take notice

Twilight Helm only has +10 to all Stats doesn't it? +14 would be 4 higher, even 2 higher than Varangian Helm, back then It was only 1 higher than most things, Including Wyverns/Demons+1, Which were both +6 in their Field, if i recall there were even some armors back at 75 With higher than +7 Stat on the head, not all but some.

on Some Weaponskills Twil/Var would be better cause of the Attack, But that could be easily solved by Simply giving Maat's Cap Acc/Atk as well :o

+15 would be superior, Possibly add more stats (Acc/Atk/Racc/Ratk?)

but again, I wouldn't be shocked if they just tossed it on the synergy List and called it a day, And i wouldn't be too upset either.

In my mind I said "fiat helm +10 all stats, twilight +15 all stats" and you're right I was dead wrong, my bad lol

Don't worry, I had to really think about it too >.>; I just looked it up to be sure.

Heck, even putting it up to par with twilight helm would be pretty spiffy due to it being all jobs. Only the jobs that can wear twilight have the ability to get auto-reraise III outside of abyssea at the moment for example. (Granted that requires both the helm and the mail, but still...)

I use it on RNG for coronach. It's good for slugwinder as well. JR there's that yaanei head. It's great for many blu spells that have stat mods other than str+dex (otherwise yaanei head is better) like QC. Good for a lot of BLU magic spells as well. Those are the two jobs I use the most so its utility actually hasn't diminished whatsoever for me personally.

I try to be as specific as possible. The only time I'd use Dancing Edge for damage on Dancer is if I'm outside Abyssea without Striking Flourish up (unstacked). It would be the same if I had Thief, but I don't.

If you want Maat's Cap, then go ahead and get it. It's still alright, especially for multi-job utility like you said. Still great for non-jishnu's ranged WSes, and still awesome for other stuff as well.

Agreed with those who say go for it, if you want it. I'm taking a break from the game right now, but I'd still like to get it someday, just for the personal achievement factor. 8)
