Your go-to guide for all Mails in Tales of Xillia 2! Discover stats, resistances, and where to find the best armor for Alvin and Gaius.

Hey there! So you're diving into Tales of Xillia 2 and want to know about the best armor, huh? Specifically, the 'mails' in the game. These are pretty important for beefing up your defense, and guess what? Only Alvin and Gaius can actually equip them. So, if you're playing as Ludger or anyone else, these won't be usable for them. Let's break down what's available: ### Mails for Alvin and Gaius Here's a rundown of the different mails you can find. Keep in mind that the purchase and resale prices (in Gald) are marked with '?' because they can vary depending on your game progression or specific shop availability. Always check the shops in towns like Trigleph, Duval, Marksburg, Aladhi Seahaven, and Kijara Seafalls first! | Icon | Mail Name | Elemental Resistances | P. DEF | A.

Keep an eye on your shop inventory as you progress! * Shop Locations: Don't forget to check shops in various cities and even some specific points like Kijara Seafalls or the Coliseum in Xian Du. * Stats: Pay attention to the P. DEF (Physical Defense) and A. DDEF (Artificial Defense) values. Higher is generally better! * Special Effects: Some mails have awesome bonus effects, like elemental resistances, stat boosts (like Dexterity, Intelligence, Strength, Psyche), or even auto-revival. These can make a huge difference in tough fights! That's the lowdown on mails in Tales of Xillia 2. Equip your party wisely, and you'll be ready for whatever the game throws at you!
