What to put Sup Glaciation IX on?

[stille_nacht]

So while farming coins today i realize something, i got 40 coins, no recipe 5s, its gonna be a while before my ranger gets that +1 hb ib of pg rapier. then, looking over the recipes, it also hit me that id probably have enough to afford to make a Glaciation IX item (for those of you who dont know, 5 of each 6-15).

Currently i am equipped with:
Head: Minos Legens
Trinket: Pale Lavendar Ioun stone
Necklace: +6 Con
Ring1: Rahkir's Ring
Ring2: Greater False life
Body: Regalia of the Phoenix
Belt: Rahkir's Sash
Boots: 30% striding
Bracers: Nothing important
gloves: nothing important
Main Hand: Staff of the Petitioner
Off Hand: N/A

i figured id just put it on bracers, but i might be missing some uber bracers that ive never heard of? If i get it on bracers, what kind should i throw it on?

i wouldn't put it on anything, personally. use a superior freeze clicky. it doesn't take up an item slot, and it gives a bigger boost.

Yeah I asked this last time, might help:
What item are you going to get Superior Glaciation IX on?

[stille_nacht]

so yeah, i had no idea about telvi's sash, but i also remembered something kinda dumb... i have rahkir's sash on, which gives superior efficacy VIII, d'oh

i might still put it on some bracers for kicks... theyll be directly better than bracers/gloves of bracer :], on that side note, i could also put this on gloves...

Don't put it on anything; there are no level 9 cold spells, so sup glac IX is a waste. Sup glac VIII isn't much better, but it's equally useful and less expensive. I'd put it on a major ice lore heavy pick, or maybe a sup pot VI weapon.

but i have staff of the petitioner as my weapon :[, you cant de equip staff of the petitioner, it's too epic....

but actually this is probably the best idea, seeing as whenever im wanting to nuke i am not worried about mana or dcs...

also, you never know when turbine will finally introduce a level IX cold spell >:

[HavokReeker]

Unless it has changed from the previous recipes you can only put the glaciation upgrades on non-named weapons. So a major ice lore weapon, superior potency VI or whatever other weapon that will help out when casting ice spells up through polar ray.

Will have to double check that this hasn't changed but I would be very surprised if it did. Hope this helps!

You can put it on items as well that have lesser glac I or better, but you can't start the chain on an accessory. That said, I've only ever seen glac enhancements on rings.

This.

But if I felt a major need (Or felt that Eladrin was going to follow up on his promise to make the item effects useful again.) I would go for some Superior Glaciation XI +30% striding guild slotted boots. While there are a couple good named/epic boots they’re not much of an upgrade on a caster.

Put it on a min lvl 8 major ice lore scepter, till you get your amrath clicky. I think you'll be ok without your staff for 2 seconds..

For shroud, run your ice scepter and scrolls.

Did I just read that there's a clicky that can give Sup Glaciation VIII + that would be great for my polar raying sorc who has horrible KIT, and only runs Shroud to farm stuff for toons with use. (feel free to PM me where, how and if I can get these "clickies")

Thanks!
