i think you should increase hps. i think ep is over rated, as is cb, ctr , and scrop ring. however if this is what you want in your template it looks good :D

Scorp ring is used for the casting speed bonus I assume the charges are ot very useful? Although having looked at that template you don't seem to need casting speed.

EP gives you an MCL2 charge. Yes its not insta but in most situations it will be as good as the champ weapon charge.

CTR - AE chants and 5% conversion as well as decent util.

CB - Very useful for winning CC. It gives you an extra half a second or so to target there sorc/pac healer and hit the insta mezz button.


The hits are a bit low on this template. Can I ask where are you getting your casting speed from? With 13% casting speed you could drop scorp tail ring and put in something like ring of the torrent and then swap around resist etc to get some more HP?

4% from ring, 4% from harp, 4% from Chest(new dragon epic), and 1% from belt..

If i swap out Scorp tail ring, i would loose 7% pp, 8 AF, healing and buff bonus etc.. Would it be worth dropping for some extra hits and perhaps alittle better resists?

Buff bonus is really not needed. I think with about 10% buffbonus you will cap your bases depending on spec. Find a RoG with high buffbonus and swap it in when you do AF or don't even bother.

AF is less than 1% reduction in melee damage. You can make up for that with 20 extra hits. 7% pp and healing bonus is useful but you can get them from other things. I didn't think you were using any new dragon drops but now I know you are I do think there is room for improvement. You also aren't using JS.

Ok, i've played around with it a bit, swapped out Scorp ring for Ring of Twilight which got me +80HP and 2 con at the cost of some casting speed so im at 9% now, will it be worth the trade?

Stick with 10% casting speed. I can't see what items you use but I had just assumed with the new dragon stuff it would be possible to make a better template.
