This is a random green wand but it is quite good has a lot of damage and adds more skill damage than the laser wand and glow stick has good h/s and m/s misses on hit and crit but all around its a very good wand.

I think which gemstone stuff people like depends on the person and their stats. I'm actually liking all this mixing and matching. I'm carrying a whole lot of extra gear because I can't decide which level I want my stats at. It's pretty neat. Still experimenting with amazingly high crit or amazingly high armor or other stuff or mixes, etc.
It would be neat if each gemstone type was a different color, or something, so we can tell that people are wearing different items
Eventually im sure there will be....hopefully a gemstone set bonus too lol.Quote:

Also all the gemstone weapons do have unique colors so you can tell what type someone is using ;)

Well in reality h/s doesnt save you from dying. Its better to have high dodge rate
I've have my Mage with all the maga Mage gear with the gemstone crafted staff (8h/s) and it's pretty good....I mean I'm already used to dying a bunch lol.....I don't really recommend crafting the mega Mage gear tho since your are changing your m/s to h/s...isn't that what heal is for....I dunno it's nice but all in all I'd rather have more mana regen.Quote:

That's another thing, what good is a kajillion ms when you have cooldowns? I'm in Cosmos right now which has a lot less ms, and I haven't seen it get down to less than 4/5s, and it immediately replenishes. It does stand to mention that I'm dual-spec, so I have less of a mana pool and alot more HPs than a pure mage.
this doesn't really make sense to me. Heal has a couple second cooldown. You should be hitting it every couple of seconds, and that gives you the equivalent of tremendous H/s. So much in fact that any piddly amount you can get from gear is meaningless.Quote:

However, because if large mana pools, M/s (even amounts that go beyond what is needed to keep skills firing) can play a defensive role with mana shield. Because you then have your entire mana pool to work with as well as your health if mana is depleted, M/s actually has a chance to act and refill the shield while in combat, unlike totally worthless health regen ;)Quote:

That said, I would trade in some of the MM M/s overabundance for some Crit or dodge, but never H/s, never. Pallys are the only mages who can use H/s, but since this is a discussion of Int gear, I'm assuming we can leave them out.
This thread reminds me of do you think this cheaper shirt is better then this expensive one (we as the guys who have to pay say, the cheaper one
