Lvl 85 sin...what to upgrade (gear wise)?

You forgot the wrists that you are using. :P

as you said changing the pants to green ones is a good idea.

And you could add 1 socket to your cape would not cost that much cuz it is only 90 socket stones

but i think thats all what i would doo


and sry for my bad englishb:surrender

If you level fast, you don't need to do much to your gear if you get your [90/]99/100 gear ready. I used the tt80 golds with modest refines/shards, by current standards, until I hit 99 and didn't have any trouble.

In your case, I would refine your H&T's as you level. They'll last you until you get r8/r9/nirvana daggers well enough and the higher refine will give you a better resell value. Plus, it'll increase your kill speed and self healing. If you can purify and reshard with immacs, all the better.

On 87, I'd go for a Sky Demon's Pearl. It's common and cheap with good adds. The extra strength will give you the option of pumping more stat points into dex (assuming you'll be using it until you get the Lionheart Belt). This also allows you to decompose and reforge the TT necklaces at leisure.

You'll probably want a better helmet. The Helmet of Lion Spirit is a nice cheap mold that will serve well until you decided to get the nirvana hat or throw stat points at a warsoul helm.

For pants, since you're halfway to 90 anyway, you may want to just work on the level 90 green pants. You'll need them for the souledges anyway and levels 85-90 can go by quickly.

If you can save up for one, the CoA rings are very nice for sins. Dex/Vit/Crit and M.def are great (M.def on refines since you'll be getting P/def from your neck/belt.)

Since you've already got the level 90 wrists, you may want to check the AH for some cheap wrists to hold you over. But then even NPC gear is better than nothing.

SinfulINature: I had already bought the Bracers of Blood Moon a while ago, back when my sin was in his 5x. I sent them to him via mail, and was using them from 60 until I lost them ~80 to a 3 way gank after a big room in frost. At which point I became serious in leveling my sin to 90 because I had already (at that point) made and sent him his 90 gold bracers.



Mauntille: Yes, I plan to refine the Hook and Thorn to +5 and leave them there so their resell value becomes up in the 12+ mil range (love the fact I got them for 7.1 mil, and they where 2 soc, refined to +2, with the flawless). As for the sharding, once I hit 90 I will switch out the flawless for some immac's or perfect's depending on what my price range will be at that time.
As for the sky demon pearl....Currently can't remember if that is a P.def neck or not...but if it isn't then I most likely won't bother getting it just because I like having some semi-ok p.def on my sin because I do the lure for the big room when I do frost big room (usually because the HA there are seekers, and they wanna be in vortex....and if there is a bm or barb....well let's just say they are more clueless than the old pilgrims).


I will take a look and see if I can find that helm, sounds like a decent helm.

As for the pants, I'm currently looking for either a pair in the Auction House and if I can't find them there I am gonna look at what mats I need (buy a cheap pair of 80 pants and decomp them) and then farm them on this BM here.


If I see a might CoA ring in world chat I shall see if I can afford it and bid on it if I can afford one.

As for the wrists....I really don't plan on putting anything there of value until lvl 90 cause I don't wish to waste a binding charm for it





(P.S. Yes HotBanana is my sin >.>...if you haven't figured it out yet)

ImNotFiveAps: lol, while it is true that bound gear can't be resold. I have to disagree with the statement of the amount of cash. I spent only 4 mil and got the 90 gold bracers. So I have no issue with using them until I get to 99 and can make Ashura bracers for my sin. Especially since I do plan to farm the cash for his stuff through NV on this char, along with HH (If I could ever get people in my damn guild to help open =.=).

As for lvl rate....atm it's about 1 lvl per 2 runs (1 per run if I don't die).


Pants: Working on HH90 Green, what reason should I get dark pants of hades?
I'll look around for a helm with those type's of adds.
I got a P.def Belt on atm =.=
I have a P.def neck on also

(Does nobody realize Belt/Neck of the Earth = HH80 green neck and belt?? They are the first step in getting HH99 Lionheart)
