    Whichever you're able to get, lol. Personally the more magic you have, the harder you hit and the more mp you have.

    I vote +10 mag!

    Firstly, as far as I'm aware:

    The +1% EXP and +3 MP regen is a level one tome. The +10 magic one is a level two. This means that the first of the two tomes will be easier for you to get, whereas to get the +10 magic tome you need three level one tomes. Inlcuding the +1% EXP and +3 MP regen tome.

    So in that sense, you need the +1% EXP and 3 MP regen in order to get the +10 magic. A little research into tomes helps before you post this kind of question.

    Apologies if I'm wrong on that matter.

    Second of all 1% EXP isn't much at all and you can find gear with MP regen. You want to go with + magic tomes.

    Like I said, the +10 magic tome is a level two tome.

    The +1% EXP and 3 MP regen tome is a level one tome if I remember correctly.

    So, you didn't really research your tomes. If you had you would have realised that

    1) the +10 magic tome NEEDS the 1% EXP/3 mp regen tome to make it. If you had realised this, you wouldn't have made this poll. You'd have gone for the 1% EXP/3 MP regen and then eventually made the other two tomes, resulting in the +10 magic tome.

    Common sense FTW.

    2) if you can buy a level 3 tome, just go buy a +15 magic tome. Seriously.

    3) Again, 1% and 3 MP regen sucks as far as a tome is concerned. You can get gear that gives you that for cheap.

    Research FTW also.

    Yeah usually that's not something to be proud of. I only ever charged maybe 10 gold in this game so far. And thats when im rooooollin in the cash.

    not often enough tbh.

    Why did you even bother making this thread if you now decide you're just going to buy a level three +15 magic tome?

    Talk about fail.

    wanted everyone's opinion on it and i still want to know about the +45magic tome and no one is selling the +15 magic tome so maybe i will have to get the +10 magic tome seeing as the majiorty says +10magic tome over 1%exp +3mp recovery

    I hate to sound condescending here, I really do, but

    Do you seriously even need to think about +10 magic against +1% EXP and +3 MP recovery? I mean, really?

    You can get blue one star gear for 15k that is better than a +1% EXP and 3 MP regen tome. And you ask if that is somehow better than +10 magic? That's just... wow. For saying you're a cash shopper you seem to have absolutely no idea about how to be economical with what you buy.

    Airyll gave you all the advice you asked for, she's got a right to be pissed if you basically throw it in her face. And then to insult her when she took the time and energy to write a reply?


    Take your cash elsewhere and spend it on something stupid. :(

    I might be an ****, but at least I am honest with you. Have some appreciation for the advice you were given, that you yourself asked for.

    If you want to have a tome because it looks awesome, by all means go ahead. Personally, that's what mounts and fashion are for.

    However, if you honestly think 1% EXP is useful on it's own you need to reconsider basic math.

    Let's say a mob you kill gives you 500 EXP.
    Your tome gives you 1% of that. That's 5 EXP.
    Let's say a quest needs you to kill 30 mobs.
    Congratulations. That tome helped you get a measly 150 EXP in ALL that quest.

    Get where this is going? 1% EXP, on it's own, sucks, and the most basic of maths would have told you this.

    I might be an **** but I'm not stupid.

    +10 magic is an obvious benefit in comparison to 1% EXP, 3 MP regen, or both.

    You then come along claiming you have enough money to buy a level three tome, which would be +15 magic. I ask you why you even bothered to make this thread, at that point, because a +15 magic tome is better than either tome you listed in your poll.

    Its probably a bad idea since wizards get **** hp per vit. He'd be lucky to get like 50 hp from one of those.


    Cheaper to get good gears with +hp or decent gems. :)

    I'd pick the 7 Mag / 6 Vit one over 10 Mag too. You trade 3 Mag for 6 Vit, not a bad deal at all. Those 3 lost points of Mag will yield 66 HP, thats a better HP/stat point ratio than what a barb gets.
