Even though the Latent is not active during a WS, the WS Accuracy trait is still nice, especially on Sidewinder, which of course brings me to saying--don't even bother getting these unless you are serious about SAM/RNG.
Can be used as part of a 6-hit build starting at Lv70.
Hachiman Hakama (3), Hachiman Kote(8), Hachiman Sune-ate (5), Rajas Ring (5), Chiv Chain (1), plus the 25 Store TP you have from job traits gives 47 Store TP, meaning you can swap into some STR gear for Y/G/K and still maintain 6-hits to 100% tp.
With the addition of rose strap, another possible 6 hit is hachiman kote, hakama, and sune-ate, chiv chain, and rose strap to hit 46 Store TP at 70. This is of course only for those sam's at 70-75 who want a 6 hit before meriting and do not have raja's ring as well.
these pants are damn near useless even for Sam/Rng now with dusk trousers and if you want Stp get Shinimusha and ws with AF legs. And dont bring up the arguement saying these are better than dusk because they give R.Atk below 100% tp because the dusk gives 10 R.Acc
which is needed for Sam/Rng more than the atk due to our low Archery skill being C- these are at best a cheap alternative to dusk but if your serious about Sam/Rng you'll get Dusk which is nice because they work for Rng also
if you use Ecphoria ring (1), brutal earring (1), and askar korazin (5), Hachiman Hakama (3), Hachiman Kote(8), Hachiman Sune-ate (5), Rajas Ring (5), Chivalrous Chain (1)plus the 25 Store TP you have from job traits gives 54 Store TP
