Other than the Lostmauth set, what new belts are you folks using or trying to get? I don't want to get the Lostmauth set because, with my luck, they'll nerf it the next day.
I was looking at the Greater Owlbear since I already have the original one at purple. The Greater Black Ice belt looks good to though. I just can't make up my mind.
Any help is appreciated.
I aim to misbehave

Greater Black Ice was changed to be +2 CON/+2 CHA, so that's probably not an option anymore.

Being kind of strange (ie stacking control from non-class sources), I took Valindra, +2Int/+2Char, I previously had Owlbear also.
Looks like the only decent choices are: Greater Sash of Charisma, Greater Owlbear belt, & Valindra. Con bonus had value in mod5, but now, with all the hit points on gear, why bother.
Based on some posts here, LM set bonus boosts your dmg by ca. 20%. You can get control bonus from companions, so for me it is gonna be LM set.
Chars: CW, DC, GF, GWF, HR and TR.

I would go for either the Valindra belt or Charisma. Crit chance is always good . I am trying to get close to 70% crit chance, but will see how much i have to give up.
Based on ACT runs in dungeons the Chaos Nexus procs about 25% of the time. Fury procs a lot more for me, a bit over 50%.
I went with the Valindra set, Lostmauth is due for a series of nerfs which will likely leave it in a near useless state in the end (see emblem of seldarine)...so those that invest heavily in the LM set are probably going to get burned.

I think I'm going with Charisma belt and Lostmauth neck, to replace my BI belt and neck.
I chose Valindra's set, the stats are almost perfect on all parts and the lostmauth set will probably be nerfed eventually, because let's face it, it deserves a significant nerf. A greater +CHA belt is also an option, and a much cheaper one.

I'm going with the VT belt. I think the stats are so much more important now than in Module 5 when most of us were pushing diminishing returns on everything except power that trading two less desirable stats (Lifesteal/Deflection) for two much better stats (Critical Strike/Recovery) isn't worth it now.
Went with the vt set because there's no realistically the lol set is going to get nerfed. Its really silly and I don't have the artifact rp to drop into it and say whatever when it turns into a cautionary tale.
