Pre-Kara: 10k mana, 1400 +healing & 100 mp5
by Set | 28/05/2007 02:08:05 Introduction: Right, I'm working on updating this list to include a selection of good armour pieces for every slot. This is a slight deviation from the original idea, but from the input I've recieved it seems to be what people want. The gear marked with an asterisk (*) is what I consider to be the best item for that slot. The other items in each section are all very good for their respective slot, but some are easier to get than others. Note, this list relies on the Ancestral Knowledge and Nature's Guidance talents for stat increases.
