So my psy is just a side project at the moment...the character i play when i dont want to play the main or the alt, but i'll ask this anyway for if i make her more serious ever.

Is - chan worth anything on a psy? Our channels are already incredibly fast, so -20% of .5 secs is going to be a lot less than -20 of a spell that takes 4 secs to channel like on a wiz or cleric.



So -chan gear or no?

    Some chan is fine but dont go to high on it. U want to think either more magic or crits, maybe even just combine the 2. Maybe 18% chan is as high as u want to go but at the end it's ur choice. Then again at lvl 99 I have my TT99 set I made for my veno (veno going HA again >:D)that I will put on my psy. I will have around -33% chan and +18% crit but its extra stats from the gears.

    personally, I don't weigh it very heavily, though if I used stone smasher more, I would... But that's probably a little ways off for you anyhow, early on, I value crit much higher than channeling, currently, I've balanced it out a bit -21 chan and +13% crit
    Main:

    Alts:
    Lypiphera 101 Cleric
    Incompetance 100 Blademaster
    MetalPenguin 101 Seeker

    You have some skills where channeling gear can matter (Bubble of Life, Aqua Cannon, Red Tide, Disturb Soul, Soulburn, Soul of Vengeance, I think and your level 100 skills) and others where it is not useless.

    Channeling gear is okay if it happens to come as a bonus on gear that has better. It's not worth focusing on when you play a Psychic. We spend most of our time stuck in the cast animation anyway, making -chan adds do even less for our already speedy channel skills. It's only a handful of skills that make some -chan useful, but it really isn't worth much attention.

    Personally, I play a pure build. So I'd rather pick up crit, vit, and mag gear. If some of the aforementioned gear just happens to have -chan adds also, then cool. But I'm not sweating it if it doesn't.
