Add chinasyndrome riccit

It is just a matter of playing the Sewer boards with a party made up of people that aren't over level 52. You get level 53 drops from the mini-bosses and (assuming you clear all or most of the level) level 51 drops from the bosses.

I have been collecting one of each 51 item by soloing the mini bosses with my 51 mage. I was planning to stop the exp near the end of level 52 so that i can continue until I had one of each. When i made level 52, i was surpised to find that the mini bosses started dropping level 53 items. So, this is a complete disaster for me. Is there any way to roll back my level?

I guess my options are to either make a new character, or just try to buy all the 51 items that I am missing. I really thought 52 was the cap for 51 items. I'm really sad about this. :-(

[AnotherAzi]

csb if you join a farming group that are all 52 or below the main bosses will drop 51. Add Ilikealot, Jadedsun, Isniped, Xcarver, Chinasyndrome, Cocamager for starters and when we have a farming group running we'll add you to help you get the ones you need.

People are listing L51 pinks around the same as L55, but the L53s are 1/2 that. Presumably there are wealthy players who want to sport pink gear as a 51, but once they reach higher levels they replace them with L55 because they can make sets and customize them.

What does it mean to "customize" a set? Is that a crafting step that adds stats?

51 items are valuable because they are easier to put on with a dual spec character. The stats requirement is lower on 51 items making it possible for a 55 mage to wear both str and int level 51 items at the same time. For example, a mage can have a fury shield and a gemstone wand at the same time using level 51 items. But, this would be impossible with level 55 items. I prefer the look of shield + wand, since i don't like the look of the mage eye, skull, doll, or bracer.

Yep, I think by customising they meant crafting, although currently crafting doesn't actually 'improve' stats but re-arrange/re-balance. Some think the stats aren't actually an improvement, some like them. Check out the crafting section in my list of useful guides below.

Is it really impossible to wield lvl55 gear on dual spec? I thought it was possible?

I don't think he's talking about dual spec, he's talking about equiping a STR shield and a wand (for example) at the same time. Dual speccing it's completely doable to equip complete lvl 55 items of each stat, but I've never tried equiping say a DEX wing and a sword. Correct me if I'm wrong csb.

Just to clarify, I think he is talking about dual spec in a way, but not in the traditional means that say I would think about it, to switch between complete sets of gear, like all STR or DEX.

Ok, its like this. Suppose you are a level 55 mage, with the following starting stats naked:

step 1: (naked level 55 mage, 280 total stat points)
current stats - str: 137, int: 141, dex: 2

step 2: (get to 161 str)
Put on 30 Iceberg hatchet/plate/shield
Put on 45 Mynas Osiris helm
current stats - str: 166, int: 141, dex: 2

step 3: (put on fury items)
put on 51 fury helm/shield
current stats - str: 175, int: 141, dex: 2

step 4: (get to 157 int)
Put on 45 D'Jinn Wand of Isis (requires 138 int)
put on Khafra Cloth of Isis (requires 142 int)
current stats - str: 161, int: 157, dex: 2

step 5: (get to 161 int)
Put on Laser Wand of the Cosmos
Put on Mirage Robe of the Cosmos
current stats - str: 161, int: 163, dex: 2

step 6: (put to 161 int gear)
Put on 51 Lowman's Wand
Put on 51 Lowman's Robes
current stats - str: 161, int: 161, dex: 2

Now you have 2 Lowman's and 2 Fury as a level 55 mage.

And, try doing this swap during a boss fight. hehe.
