I get haste isn't the only stat. Thaumas makes up a large portion of other stats (acc/att/multi-hit). And how am I putting words in your mouth when you said it not only once, but twice? Your first response, ok that could have been a joke. Then you went ahead and said it AGAIN. I'm honestly not trying to be a d*** here. I'm just trying to understand your rationale behind your own words, when it's not even THAT bad of an item. I'm going to bed. Seriously. I'm not even sure how else I can explain myself.
It's bad for MNK. Feel free to find me a set where it works, and I'll pick it apart for you.
