Hi guys,

I want some opinions about this.
When is the right time to start saving/shopping for the -% channeling gear?
Don't tell me -% channeling is always good, cause that's more obvious than a Mack parked between go-karts.
I don't PK at all except TW ... yet.
I'm wondering when it really makes sense to start buying gear with channeling, gear that will last u at least 10-15 lvls or worth refining in time. I know there are some end-game necklaces and rings out there with this option, but honestly, I don't have the cash for such things.
Is it worth buying a -3% gear with channeling even if it misses one or two mag elem def? Is it worth it to have 2 or 3 pieces like this on u? ( I'll say no at first glance)

Thanks!

    Personally I did not buy any channeling gear till lvl 70+ and it was lvl 77 ... something. Can't remember now what it was would have to go ingame for it and am being lazy. The lvl 77 channeling gear will hold a long time really so I personally think it is the best time to start. Wouldn't buy any before that.

    Lev 77 sleeves of the sea captain mold has -6 channel and is pretty much the standard gear for casters. If your gonna start, start with that piece.

    notes taken.
    Seems that under 77 isn't worth the investment. Will save and buy when I can find good deals. Still a long way 'till there.

    from my pov this topic is closed.

    Personally, channeling on a wiz isnt that good. In grinding if you use combos like stonerain/sandstorm or pyrogram/gush the cooldown prevents the channeling from being effective.

    Crit is better imo.
