Gear check !! Need groupable options as a stop-gap.
Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2007 11:56 amSome background:
In late January, I came back after taking a break just after TSS released. I'm in a Family Raiding guild that is just starting to raid Anguish. Ture, Keldovan, and Warden down on first attempts, but 0 for 1 on Jelvan. We are doing all DoN dragons but Vish. And we are working on Txevu encounters to open Tacvi. As we have about 60 active raiders (Core group of about 20), gear tends to go pretty expensive; e.g. I picked up Belt of the Stagnant on Satuday for about a months worth of DKP. My fellowship is doing Katta missions (gear will open up to me in the next week or 2) and doing aug runs in anguish (my dice have been terrible so far).
My plan is to upgrade the GM/TSS visable armor to Praetorian; except sleeves which I'm targeting Dreadful Chain Arms of Corruption. Anguish will upgrade mask to Mask of Forbidden Rites; shoulders to Amice of Ill-Will; and one ear to Earring of Dark Conflict over the next month as I've been hoarding points since my return. I'm also working on Asst. Researcher's Symbol for Neck. This should get my focus effects decently covered and let me replace some augs.
I'm looking for some input on a few slots: Range !! (this slot is woefully inadequate), 1x ear, 1x ring. I'll eventually upgrade them with raid drops from Anguish/Tacvi, but need some groupable options to tide me over till then.
Thanks in advance.
