    Enough, but 3 wizards in HV set melt down any boss very quickly.

    I don't really see the point in running 3 CW's in a group, a more balanced group is much more effective in my experience. I honestly only like to run as a solo CW.

    Love your post man. I like to strive for exactly everything you talked about. Of course I still have much to learn, but as of yet. In any T2/CN, I generally am #1/#2 DPS. Next to well played rogues, and highly geared GF's. I dont believe I went with anyones specific spec, but I am sure I am running a very cookie cutter Renegade build much like everyone else running with Renegade.

    I never once thought of running Armor Pen. I did my best to adjust stats, to get my Power to 4k, Crit to 3k, and Recovery to 3k.

    I'm at work so not able to post a picture of my build or gear, but I'm gonna link a video that shows most of it. You can see I am running 2/2 Shadow weaver/Magelord set, because at the time of gearing my CW, I needed the bonus of crit/power(or so I thought)
    I am running rank 7 Profane in my ioun stone because I thought I needed more crit.

    I guess I'm just looking for some ideas, on what I should do to reorganize my gear, to maximize my CW. I have the ability to purchase the other 2 pieces to make a specific set, but I do not have the ability to "buy" Ancient Jewelry, nor do I want to honestly. I'll just keep farming till I get it. I currently have one ancient control, the rest are grand, and minor grand.

    Any info would be appreciated man, thx in advance

    You should drop the two pieces of Magelord and get either High Vizier or Shadow Weaver 4-piece. If you're going to stick with Renegade I would go with Shadow Weaver, and if you plan on switching to Thaum I would go with High Vizier. The power bonus from the Magelord 2-piece isn't really doing much for you if you're at 3k+ power without it, and either of the 4-pieces would net you much greater dps.

    I wouldn't worry about the Ancient Jewelry if you can't afford it, using the Grand is just fine until you can afford the ancient.

    Putting crit gems on your pet is fine if you are already armor pen soft-capped at 2530, otherwise I would most definitely replace them with armor pen.
