Hi

So, i'm beginning to reach the point where i need to worry about my gear. I don't cash shop, so rank 8/nirvana is not an option.

Anyway, this is what i had in mind, short-term:

mostly til i can get better gear, maybe switch helm and cape for pdef ones?

And this is the gear i aim for, eventually:

Any suggestions to make it better or cheaper would be much appreciated.

    Well, for your first build...
    I think your pdef is just too low, although I do like sharding hp for myself.. you might consider switching some of the shards to pdef. Ofc it is personal preference, but I usually shoot for equal hp and pdef when self buffed. You might also look at your refines, using tishas/tienkengs are alot cheaper than orbs.. so if you are daring you can try refining a few pieces a little higher (a +3 weapon is pretty low)

    For your second build..
    Full HH99 is crazy expensive and not even that good. The wrists are nice, so I'd keep those.. but you'd be better off with OHT or 3* gear for the rest (cheaper and better stats). You should know that ence's star costs 40 tokens of BEST luck (i.e. 200mil) while a nirvana helm would cost quite a bit less.. I believe its just short of 150mil for one armor piece with current prices. You should also keep in mind if you are going to be on a budget when refining, you might look into refining the cape one or two steps above the rest of your gear because capes refine as LA (more hp per refine than arcane) so you'll get more bang for your buck.

    Ty for the advice :)

    So just get the Crit sword, and skip rest of TT99, or is the wrists worth it over TT90 gold? Or a set of 2xHP+105 OHT, which i have now?
    Got any Tips on helm, are there any good TT/Mold or should i just look for OHT ones?

    Ya, the crit sword is really nice, and the wrists are kinda up to you. The -6channeling in the TT90/99 wrists are a big +, but really any of the 3 wrists you mentioned would be more than sufficient. My helm right now is terrible (lvl 81 pdef +69 x2 3 sockets) so I'm looking into an OHT helm with decent stats. I can't really find any decent molds/HH helms that are in the price range I'm looking for.. so we're kinda in the same boat. I'm hoping for a decent OHT helm xD

    As for getting the belt, how much HP in needed for GV? AFAIK u're dead if u get too much aggro by mobs no matter what gear, so can i get by with just managing aggro and having enough HP to survive bosses? In that case, how much is recomended?
