Wizard Temp 1.85

[Legean]

Aim was to get resists up without losing my damage. I've never had BoZ in my template and dont really feel the need to get it. The melee resists are a lil lower than id like but i couldn't help that. I'm not too likely to change to this at least not anytime soon was just wondering of peoples opinions on it. Also not sure why but can never get matter resists any higher =/

Its nice enough, just a shame you cant squeeze a little more resists in. I think your having problems because cloudsong and jacina are both really low utilty, your templates 2 overcap on cast speed which is an indication youre not making the most of cloudsong, try alternatives and look for a replacement ring or bracer to compensate and add cast speed.

You have a lot of crafted items, you could consider using a part of the DR epic, or some TOA drop that has better UV than a crafted piece to generaly boost it.

Lower on some resists, higher on others, much easier items to get.

5% resist pierce on Jacs is all the util on it i need, theres no way I, or indeed any other caster would drop it. I have CS in mainly because of the aura - god knows ive used it enough currently. The crafted pieces also contain the new caps (shown in left handed slot) so they do have a nice util. Ive looked at epic armour but they generally have a lot of caps and less util than you could craft.

why 99%? cloth pieces are pretty cheap..get mp get ur melee res up..other than that i like it

I agree with you on jacinas, though I have gone 5% passive templates in the past you would be suprised how much you can get in without it. But yep, jacinas is essential. Cloudsong isnt, ive made a few strong templates with Zahur, perhaps you could fit that in and use thats aura, at least you get some ok UV with it. Epic and drops, yep its hard to find anythign that competes with 1.85 crafted, but theres a few to consider, my eld epic boots kinda rock if you fit them in sweetly

Cloth MP old armour is a lot cheaper than the new stuff.

I've not got the full info (based my template on 99's, and got one first try), but I believe the new ones don't sell back for much more than the old ones did, but cost a lot more.

So, old MP Boots cost 17.2 gold + 4 gold per make (roughly), about 217 gold cost price on average.

New MP Boots cost about (from memory Ra gem is about 29g) 46.2 gold + 30 gold per make (pure estimate - anyone say what the new stuff sells back for?) would be 1.5 plat on average, plus 50 Armour patterns.
