FvS Evoker - Rate and Review

[Premier]

I disagree on the greensteel choices you recommend. Conc Opp with either hp or sp is absolutely essential, as you say, but a +3 exceptional Wis weapon will be worthless/a waste of larges when you get ToD rings.

Con Opp is the only essential double shard item I recommended in my post. ToD rings can yield +2 exceptional Wisdom, so he'll have to place a exceptional +1 wisdom somewhere else (Dragontouched? Anywhere else?).

The scepter recommendation is a "cheaper" way to get one's casting DC's higher, faster, which is the purpose of the Evoker, to have high DC's and destroy things with spell points.

Ummm, what's with the +2 tomes at level 6? Not that it makes any real difference at L7...

Hmm...welp, with the savings on cha, that means I can invest a bit more in int, or have one more con (which would go later with Human Adaptability). Decisions Decisions.

Skill points wouldn't be all that important would it? But then again, fitting 4 AP in for the second human adapt sounds kinda annoying.

EDIT: Woah. Didn't realize how messed up my skill points were. Must have been experimenting or something eariler and forgot to reset them. Oh well. Concentration, a few ranks and jump and balance then.

There's always the Watcher's Blade (http://ddowiki.com/page/Watcher%27s_Blade) if he really need +1 exceptional wisdom until he gets it somewhere else,push comes to shove.

Also,I too can confirm the dillie swap.
Started off with fighter dillie and 12 charisma on my FvS,ate a charisma tome and swapped fighter out for the sorc dillie later on.

Might be a bit roundabout but it made leveling a little easier.

What do you mean he'll have to place +1 exc Wisdom somewhere else? I've got a ToD ring with both +1 and +2 exc Wisdom on my evoker right now...

Yes, the greensteel way may be 'cheaper' initially, but eventually he'll have wished he spent the larges elsewhere (believe me, I made a +3 wisdom gs item, and it now sits in my bank gathering dust...)

Elaborate. Which ToD rings are you utilizing?

You can use any ToD ring that has +1 exc Wisdom: Kilau's/Telvi's/Dragonmarked...personally I have the dragon marked on my evoker, because it also counts as my charisma item. But let's face it, there's only 1 ToD set that an evoker FvS would even care about completing, the archmage (Rahkir's) set for the boost to spell crit damage. The rest are just not worth pursuing on an evoker.

This is not true. The warchanter set is rather good for lowering sp costs. Not to mention the necklace has sup pot VI

That's a good point, except the warchanter set would take the place of my torc.

Gotcha, I was only thinking of adding the imbued great shard to a ring, not about different rings with +1 exceptional wisdom.

I'm working towards the Warchanter set on my FvS, just missing the ring. I use the Occult Slayer belt and ring set currently and probably won't change that. I wear Blue Dragonscale robes for spell crits, Bracers of the Glacier for arch-magi (plus the blue flames match my robe), and S&B it with a Light and Darkness and a Min2 longsword for DC's.

I'm still sticking with my making a +3 wisdom greensteel scepter advice, I feel it's easier than getting the correct ToD rings, plus trophies for the average pugger. But no one has to follow my advice....
