    Default Gear for a melee soul

    Since the spell pass and the change to how potency/devotion work I've had to review my current set-up and am presently not satisfied with anything I see so far. I used to be able to be quite effective with sup potency 6 and amrath devotion clickies but those aren't nearly what they used to be.

    So I am wondering what have other divines (especially the melee ones) worked into their gear to be effective at spell casting/healing while still holding a dps weapon in their hands. I am open to swapping and am used to having two set-ups (one for melee while healing and another as more caster mode). Any feedback would be appreciated. The build in question is link in sig, updated build and gear is mostly up to date.
    Git off mah lawn!

    If, If's and But's was Candies and Nuts, we'd all have a Merry Christmas.

    What sort of a melee Soul? My twf caster hybrid rocks an Epic Sirocco in the main hand and the drow priestess dagger in the other, plus a set of Drow Smoke Goggles. I like this set up a lot for trash. If it is not blinded it is tripped, or paralysed, or the slay Living or Manslayer proc goes off. Plus I have Potency perma equipped. I wear the Alchemist Crown for additional devotion and radiance. I very rarely play this toon with others these days, but I do also have a devotion and radiance caster staff for raid bosses.

    If you dont have access to the Sirocco, I dont know. Do any post U14 lootgen have epic Telekinetic on them?

    I probably should've been a little clearer and posted current gear. Below is current gear set-up. It was very clickie dependant, which I never minded. However, clickies aren't what they used to be. Now what I am looking at is where am I going to place perma Devo/Radiance/Impusle and what that is going to replace on my set-up now. I really don't like the idea of banking nice items like litany but atm considering holy symbol of lloth.


    Helm: Epic Helm of the Mroranon, +7 Wisdom, GFL Slotted
    Neck: Torc/Sup Pot VI Amrath Neck/GH Clickie/Invis Clickie/Silver Flame Talisman
    Trinket: LotD/Pouch of Jerky/Eardweller
    Cloak: Epic Envonomed Cloak, +7 Con, Heavy Fort slotted
    Belt: Rahkir's, Archmagi/GH Clickie/Jump Clickie/Tokala's/Amara's/Kormor's
    Ring 1: Rahkir's, +6 Int, +1 Exceptional Int, +2 Exceptional Con
    Ring 2: Kyrian's, +6 Cha, +1 Exceptional Str, +2 Exceptional Str/UA/FF/Spell Storing/Balance +15
    Gloves: Epic Spectral Gloves, +7 Dex, SF: Evocation Slotted/Vile Blasphemy/SF Clickie
    Boots: Green Steel, triple air sp boots/Anchoring/Madstone ~ under rare occasion
    Bracers: Green Steel, Con Op, +45 HP/Grease Clickie
    Chest: Epic Malarith Chain, Toughness Slotted
    Goggles: Epic Goggles of Time Sensing, +2 Exceptional Wis, +1 Exceptional Wis slotted, +1 Exceptional Con slotted/Tharnes/Shroud triple neg, full immunity line

    For weapon most times ESOS.

    With that setup I would reslot Rahkirs with Devotion 78. You don't have to farm a new one, you can cleanse ToD ring's now.
    You could easily reslot +2 con with the Purple Dragon Knight Gauntlets. Would also give you +7 Str and 30% Heal Amp, which helps a lot.
    The missing Dex - hm maybe slot +6 in the esos then?

    For me, I found the 78 enough. In pure tank healing mode I carry a devotion stick + heals scrolls anyways.
