How do we deal with m/s with new gear?

**Ellyidol** · 10-10-2010, 04:49 PM

Hey guys

I just turned 50 and using some of the new gear.

Just put on a battleforge of destiny helmet (not sure of name), battle forge of destiny plate, scimitar of rift, and screaming skull shield.

I realized that it gives me 0 m/s and about 11 h/s.

I then looked up the more expensive gear, jacob/overlord of rift and power suit of rift, and it still gives 0 m/s.

Question is how do we deal with m/s with this new gear set up? It gets quite expensive spamming mana pots especially when dealing with a mob or boss when you have to spam your screams, debuffs, buffs, slashes.

Just curious how the more experienced warriors are dealing with it.

They use one thoth piece, usually in the head slot so they can hide it. My solution was the the chest and head slots should both give 3 ms. Kinda silly though.

Solution: find a lvl 50 Thoth mynas Helm before the update a few days ago! lmfao!

people will see very soon the price of these skyrocket.

Yeah I thought so too. Ended up using a thoth plasma sword. Kinda silly though how the mage alien set gives them (32?) m/s while we get no m/s and not that high h/s.

Well, be fair--mana's pretty much all a Mage has. Mine's lvl. 48 and I hate to think what I've spent in mana pots just healing warriors and archers. My lvl 42 tank's been burning the mana pots, too, though.

Not a viable option for PVP. This gear needs to be adjusted. At least put 1 m/s in there!

I'm not sure those do not drop anymore. Thought I saw a "normal" drops from the mini-bosses Sniper, Lorekeeper, and Berserker. I am not positive it was them but I did see one.

Well why not put 16 points into intel, in the end does 16 stat points make THAT big of a difference anywhere else. the return for investment into intel is by far the best place to spend 16 points.

**wenoandrewiscool** · 10-15-2010, 04:44 PM

i have a thoth helm lvl 50 if u wanna offer for it.. hehe

Agreed. The 16 intelligence is a must. It's kind of stupid though how the next upgrade to 2 m/s is at like 50 something? If I'm not mistaken

I agree not very balanced at all. The archers get like 8 h/s and 3 m/s or something for some of they're items while the warriors get 2 h/s with their best items. Defietlry gonna want to have a Thoth and maybe an Isis as well. I think this is very stupid, because it limits the new pinks we can use. Giving us 2 h/s and 0 m/s on super hard campaign. I don't think the devs really thought this through...

Some of the level 45 pinks you can get from AO have good m/s. Also, I think I was just playing in Haunted Manor with you SMOAE haha

**TheLaw** · 10-18-2010, 09:03 PM

is Haunted Manor the new campaign?

**kavanah** · 10-18-2010, 09:20 PM

I don't use a thoth peice in PvE. I just manage my skills as best I can. Don't have a problem with it like I thought I would. I'm not there for dps, I'm there to tank!

**iphoman** · 10-28-2010, 10:43 AM

There is no mana regen gear for level 50 Str other than a couple of Thoth items that don't drop any more. The best solution in terms of getting regen with minimal armor sacrifice is to use a level 45 Thoth buckler.
