I just recently turned my mage from a pally to a dex mage. I want to know what set is better for a dex mage- sewers or raid.

Sewers definitely. Sewers offers a bit less crit (-3), but in return you get 6 M/S a peice. Mages need M/S of course, and with Raid, max M/S would be 6 or 7. With full sewer, its be 24 or 25. The H/S is a bonus, although Mages don't need H/S IMO. Honestly, it isn't a competition in my eyes. Mages need M/S, and give or take, it is worth the slight changes in crit and hit (I may be mistaken but I think RR offers more hit% than SK)

they are only a week old, so the prices are high like the 55 pinks when BS come out, will go down soon.

If cost is an issue for you, Underlings is pretty good.
But I'd choose SK over RR, especially for mage. Unless you don't mind spamming a lot of mana pots.

Not really surprised. I think dex mage needs a tank in front the most, since your probably the softest and easiest to get to among all 3 characters.

dex mage is probably the worst choice of a hybrid...
u loose a lot of skill damage and ur squishy too.. before 1.5 may was good and it was a personal decision for be able to use a megablaster wich in AO3 times was huge fun :)

yep, its a terrible idea, because its much less armor from pure, and much less damage from pure also. Not to mention the fact that there is no set bonus. I used to love Dexchantress back in A03. Now its just lame
