Buddy Rush: Magic Cane Set (1.5)

Here is the first of the three purple sets I have completed on that one day, the Magic Cane Set. There are two items in this set.

The first item is the Powerless Magic Cane, which can be bought from the shop.

The second item was found from a treasure chest dropped by an Oblin during Bangbang's Raid. Actually, it was before the raid since I looted the chest before entering the arena where Bangbang was. I think that this item may also be looted from regular mission drops in C'est Mang.
Magical Essence
If anyone wonders how much the Magical Essence is worth:
It is priceless.
I equipped the set on Nagne.
Dual Purple Set FTW!
The combined Philosopher's stone Set and Magic Cane set give:
Att+284
Def+46
HP+360
HP Regen+4%
MP+80
MP Regen+4%
critical+14%
Evade+8.5%
Stun+8%
Hit Speed+4%
Skill Pow+57%
Skill CoolTime-3.2sec


Overall, both sets give Nagne decent all round bonuses, with good critical for his Forgetful Nagne skill. With this setup, all equip slots are taken by both sets. Thus the only flexibility would be in costume and accessories.

Update 19 March 2012:
Rumor has it that there is also a blue Magical Essence (the one in the screenshot above is red), which gives a different Set Effect. Rumor also says that it is possible to equip both Magical Essences for both bonuses. However, I am skeptical about the latter since the Magical Essences share the same name and unique items of the same name cannot be equipped.

Update 3 October 2012:
Just looted the blue Magical Essence from the Arena! Here are the stats (as of 1.7.1):
Blue version of the Magical Essence
I have tried and found that it is not possible to equip both the blue and the red Magical Essence at the same time.

The blue Magical Essence is great for skill spammers with extra MP, Skill Pow and Skill CoolTime. However, with the new additions (especially the latest raid boss loot), the blue Magical Essence is less impressive.

  1. Hi I think that it's possible to equip both magical esssence as I've seen a guy with the jeweless sword and 2 different processed oblinium, red and blue, giving 2 sets of set effects.

    1. It may be possible to do that originally. But according to the Mini-wave patch note of 19 April 2012, it's been fixed.

      That guy may have equipped 2 different processed oblinium before the patch.

    2. Do you know where to get the blue processed oblinium?

    3. It's possible to get one during missions and maybe the stamina reward chest after the mission. I don't remember which mission though. It is also a rare drop in Arena - this is probably a better place to farm for them.

  5. Hi, i got the blue one very early>> i forgot it was arena or fishing about lv 20 ?

    the red one i got it recently from the slave of Armored Tiger boss raid.

    I wanna ask whether it is worth it to buy the cane? I have a nagne and vamp lv 91 and 71 respectively.

    thanks!

    1. If you can spare the bugs, it's okay to buy the Powerless Magic Cane. The Set Effect is okay before level 100. It's main drawback is that it cannot be Refined - and Refining will not improve the Set Effect anyway.

    1. It is not possible to equip two red Magical Essences on the same character.

      The Set Effect for the red Magical Essence is good for Skully if she is configured to Stun with normal attacks.
