Next Shroud item?

[Draccus]

I finished my Mineral II rapier this week and am already looking at my next Shroud item. So far, I have:

Radiance II Rapier
Mineral II Rapier
Air-Fire Cloak (hit points, dex skills, displacement)

My next step is obviously to finish Tier 3 on the cloak for 20 more hp. I'll just make it Air-Fire-Air and save the larges. But what next?

A second Mineral II for my off hand against red named bosses?

A single-shard DPS for my off hand to match my Rad II?

Another accessory? I'm sitting at 19 Shrouds right now and can get a stone of cleansing next if needed. I'm just a few ings short of being able to do Tier 1 and 2 on another item, maybe an immunity belt (Neg-Neg, immunity to blindness, poison, fear and disease)

EDITED: I'm also seriously considering that assassin's dagger that's been discussed on this board. Neg-Neg-Neg: +6 int, +3 exceptional int, slay living.

How in the world did you finish two Tier III dual-shard weapons with only 19 completions?

I think you're pretty set for weapons (assassin dagger would be cool though). I would consider the immunity belt next (with a cleansing shard)

I went with a slot saver UMD belt mostly for solo-ing:
CHA skills 1
Poison/Fear Immunity (Plus WIS 6, Diplo 10, Haggle 10)
CHA skills 3

I also made a HP/Earth Elemental belt up to Tier2 (mostly for the Earth Elies). I use it in Shroud 4-5 for the 25 extra HP. If I ever get enough larges, I might consider getting the last HP level, but not likely (so much other stuff to make).

Smalls: I hooked up with a group doing Part 1 loot runs one night. I think we ran it 10+ times and I stocked up on smalls and regular shards.
Mediums: most of us have excess mediums so no mystery there. Also, during the last +1 Loot weekend, I ran 5-6 part 1-3 loot runs.
Larges: I've gotten lucky pulling some named items people want and made some good trades.

I've pulled 4 large scales.
I bought 2 for 60k plat total
I traded Spectral Gloves for 2
I traded a Scourge Choker for 2 scales and 10 other larges
I borrowed one scale from a guildie to finish my MinII.

That's 11 (6 for RadII and 5 for MinII).

The key was the Scourge Choker. I pulled it on my first ever Crypt run and had no clue what it was. No one in my group even noticed I pulled it. I was selling off some gear and went tothe AH to see what they go for before I put it up. There wasn't one listed so I said "Meh...I'll put it up for 30k plat and see if it sells." Something made me stop and I decided to do a price check on the boards first. That's when the offers came in. I had people offering 8-10 larges for it and ended up getting 12 and 2 scales if I recall correctly.

I had a Mineral II Helm and a Mineral II D-ax done before my 20th. As well as tier 2 Existential Stalemate goggles.

In my case, I had 2 characters running the Shroud (though one didn't start til the first was at about 10 completions), DD'ed at the end a couple of times (though, not often, realized it was silly...mostly because I didn't feel like running the Shroud back to back), and traded ingredients on a few occasions.

The OP could have several guys running the Shroud, benevolent guildies, or boatloads of cash.

None of the above As I mentioned in the previous post, it was two lucky pulls from routine quests that set up some good trades combined with a lot of non-completion loot runs.

I only have 1 Shroud character but I am leveling a cleric (currently 11th level) specifically for running the Shroud and passing ingredients on to my rogue.
