Need Greensteel item advice

[Mithril_Hand]

I'm nearly done with my Lightning II Falchion but I'm not quite sure what I should be crafting next for my Paladin.

Currently considering triple air goggles for the +6 to cha skills (the +SP also eliminates the need for me to run around with a Magi mace) or a triple negative cloak for blindness, poison immunity and +20 HP (the fear and disease immunity is wasted on a Pally though so I'm having doubts).

Should I craft something else or should I go ahead and start crafting these two?

Unless I'm missing something, I'm not sure why you want +cha skill goggles. Charisma skills don't effect your saves, and unless you use diplomacy or intimidate or something I can't see why you'd need them. Unless you multiclassed Rogue, give them a pass. I'd suggest carrying around some sp pots if you're worried about mana; that way you don't use up a slot.

I'd personally suggest the next item you make either be Air Guard cloak (Single shard, okay guard, +6 to dex (balance), +45 hp) or a Smoke cloak (Dual shard, 20% perma-blur, +6 to dex (balance), +45 hp). I'd personally give a pass to an immunity item, especially on a Paladin. You're already naturally immune to some effects and have some really nice saves, so why waste another 25 hp?

I'd prolly shoot for an HP item. An HP conc-opp cloak is always usefull. Dont see the point of + cha skills unless you are a UMD pally or Intimi pally. As far as an immunity item goes Blindess and Poision pots work just as well imo. But it all depends on if you want a gaurd item or something else.

Earth is another fine way to go with an HP item. You get earthgrab guard and 2 clickies of summon dense earth elemental.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

Still haven't decided which one to craft but I think I'm going to make one of the cloaks suggested.

As soon as I have enough materials and as soon as I can find a place to put my cha item that is.

Some good ideas here, but may I counter?

Why not CHA skills? Perhaps he has UMD on his Paladin?

I would also advise against using SP pots- too expensive in the long run. Alternatives to using SP pots would vary depending on who you run with and how likely a group is to let you roll on stuff. There's always the option of getting some of these items on your 20th run- Bracers of the Glacier (also good for Cold Shield- I would strive for these on a 20th to avoid loot drama), a Bauble, a Torc... actually all three of those may cause loot drama, but depends if you have a guild who will support you in trying to get them. Other than that, why not even a Spell Storing ring or Twisted Talisman?

I do like the idea of a HP cloak, though

Con Op Cloak might be another consideration, can be a HP item/Con Op.

Really depends on how much your Pally uses SP to make it worth it tho.
