gearing up my lock

[Hobgoblin]

as title says - life has been easy till 30 so some of my gear is horribly outdated

head - panasophic circlet
neck - mystic eidolions - thinking of putting in legendary hypnotic pendant
trinket- legendary symbol of the slave lords
cloak - earthen mantle
belt - gs hp conc op
ring 1 - crafted raidence and raidence crit ring
boots - devil commander boots
gloves - crafted sonic sp and resistance 8
ring 2 - guardians ring
armor- con 13 of repair amp
shield - epic kundarak shield
weapon- named pick from toee - not epic
goggles - parmusional lenses

like i said way out dated.
i can try for updating things like the circlet and the cloak

just looking for ideas.
now i can see that i dont need the radiance as i dont have utterdark blast - so ring slot might be freed up

I am not sure how open you are to running raids, but working towards a material opposition LGS set is worth it, but the raid is run much less since slavers came out.

2 pieces of slavers gear would really help:

1) Charisma +17, Spell Power Force 185, Spell Focus +6, Quality Charisma +4 with an augment
2) Con +17, Spell Lore Force 27, Spellcraft 22, Quality Con +4 with an augment

This works for your base damage since you don't have utterdark, tentacles, ruin, greater ruin and arcane pulse. That is the same setup I have on my necromancer - no utterdark with a focus on force for boss damage.

the guardians ring can be upgraded with a better crafted ring with sheltering as a suffix. You can put insightful Charisma +7 as the bonus slot and Wizardry as a prefix (or alternatively spell lore of any type)

The armor from Tempest Spine / Hox is really good - it gives +3 insightful DC to all schools and has some other goodies.

For shield skyvault is a really good choice - 15 PRR/15MRR with no feats- you get proficiency with master's touch. It also has no arcane spell failure as a special property of just that tower shield.

The legendary spinneret ring from slavers is also nice, 15% lore to all types. It also gives Quality Spell focus 2. The guardians ring is the easiest thing to upgrade. You can find a better random loot gen ring at level 30.

Of all topazes for these goggles you chose blindness immunity instead of greater necromancy?

good ideas - ugh not looking forward to the slavers grind. confused on your comment on tentacles as I thought all 4 of those took force sp for damage.

i had thought that the tempest spine didnt come in docents and just looked over the list.

Guess im off hunting!

I just looked over the docent list and it seems none of the docents from TS have insightul +3 - only the robe and light armor. The only other place you find those on random loot is goggles. Random loot sometimes drops insightful +4 spell focus on goggles. The generic +3 from the TS armor is really nice as it works on enchantment, tentacles (conjuration) and evocation for the blast.

You can get +4 insightful enchantment from legendary mutilator of minds in place of a shield. Aside from that you will need to pick which one to get on the goggles.

As bf the dcs aren't as important not enough feats or dcs

So max blasting and focus on 1 or 2 dcs usually evoc and conj webs tentacles

Allowing you to dump spell pen as well

Gogs and Cloak decent for a lgs hp or sp set if u care or **** gen works

I got spell crit multiplier gogs and use a ran gen cloak cha 14 w ins cha 6 fits perfectly

for the quality cha go with the good intentions gloves those r ez to farm as well

[mr420247]

For slave lords crafting i went with a universal con 17 belt of con 4 resistance n spell focus

I personally don't like the spell lore spell power crafting right now since it takes 2 meh items to make one decent caster item

So im waiting for later on to fill in the blanks since it is a huge grind and u cant swap out the augments

if you're BF ... one of best docents is Legendary Heart http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Legendary_Heartwood

from search and rescue.

Perhaps I already had one slotted into a ring before I found the goggles in a chest?

No need to waste a tool kit, but yes the L24 necro II yellow topaz stacks, because the bonus is Enhancement. So I actually have another +2 on a ring
