At the moment i have a level 5 Book of Congratulations> 20 vit -3% phys dmg, that i got from opening the only pack ive ever bought. Sins are squishy so i chose a vit tome instead of a dex one.

i have 7k hp, barb buffed, and can tank pole, take hits from the 1st fcc bosses trap and have been soloing shades since 78.

i plan to pk and tw in the future but cannot afford a Pan Gu or Love up and down atm.

Was thinking about trading for Endless Waves but am not sure if it will be worth losing the dmg reduction, pdef, and extra hp from the Book of Congratulations.

Any thoughts?

    youre so lucky by getting that tome on ur first pack :D
    i used to grind in sanctuary while farming, u really make coin by selling mats and Dqs also u get good coin drops ~150-500 p/mob. i used to grind there for 3 or 4hrs daily and i get like 700k per session.

    A lot of people who will eventually save up for a Pan Gu tome would get The Voidlands tome, as it gives +6-7 to all 4 attributes, and a 1% crit rate increase.

    It's also one of the 3 tomes you need to make a Pan Gu. The other two are Rouge of Red Lips, and Gang of Goolians. The Gang of Goolians is also a great book, if you prefer +70 health over 1% crit (it has the same stats as The Voidlands).

    Otherwise the book you have now is more than enough for a sin of your level.

    Personally i made myself the lvl 4 tome "A bewitching proposal" : 13dex/12 vit.
    I find it to be a perfect balance between adding dmg and getting a bit more hp, and it's on the path to a lvl 5 tome :)

    A tome with 2 stats instead of 1 is usually better, as it adds more points than a tome with 1 stat point (like 5 dex vs 4vit+3dex)

    That's only true if:
    1. You can restat said stat
    2. You can actually use the secondary stat

    In the first case, any tome higher than a Level 1 tome is useless because the secondary mod is +3 vita on that and you can at most restat 3 vita.

    In the latter case, there's no boundary.

    base vit = 5
    vit with gear and tome = 75

    im not looking to put any points into vit, relying on refines/gems, vit add ons from gear to get my hp, but since i dont have my engame gear yet/ not level 100 yet i think the 20+ vit tome will be my source of hp till i do reach endgame then will prolly find a endless waves tome or a bewitching proposal tome.

    endless waves is the same as bewitching proposal in stats just adds +1 crit.

    tyvm for the feedback, and i am open to more suggestions.
