The Spirit Realm

Greetings fellow shaman,

Long time reader, first time poster here.

Just last night, I finished up my 2.0 and have been looking around at various aug combos to put into the two slots available.

Was just wondering if there was any input out there as to the various combos you guys have found to work well for you. Specifically, I'm not sure what Type 4 aug to use.

Thanks a bunch.

There's only one GOOD type 4 aug, and that's BiC. Passable options include Gem of Bolstered Power, Cipher of Veeshan, and Warded Dragon Egg Fragment. Cipher of Veeshan edges out Gem of Bolstered Power because it's leeter.

Right now, I'm using Cipher of Veeshan (originial, not the new one) in my Type 4 slot until I get somewhere on BiC (which may be never, god it's long . . .).

I use sparkling gem of protection on my 1.5 because it's all I had that would go in that slot.

Hey, do I have to remove it before my 2.0 turnin? (guessing yes)

Yes, make sure 1.5 is UN augged.

BiC or bust

sam here's the checklist my guild uses
