Putting aside the talk about the usefulness of Blood Ember armor for dungeon soloing, BE armor does have another very real benefit that hasn't been mentioned: it allows an SK to indefinitely sustain a Monk style power level by FDing mana-free with the greaves. And you can even snare with the gauntlets to keep the mob from fleeing while the powerlevelee finishes it off. To be fair, an Iksar with enough FT and Clarity/PoTG could probably sustain a decent PL with castable FD. But having it available on the Greaves makes it a hell of a lot easier.
