So im fairly new to PWI and I have the following equip as i'm lvl 73:

Royal Arcane Robe:
Phys Res 101
1000 defense attributes
Magic +5
hp +40
crt hit rate 1%

All the rest is from the same dreamchaser pack taht u get giving u in all parts +magic.

As a weapon I have TT70.

But now i'm starting to feel a lil bit more squishy then on earlier levels, and I wounder if a new set would make a difference?
I see some options like Sleeves of Sea Captain and such, but none of the options I've seen so far have a +Magic component. Wich is a thing cleric could use, right? I don't see any better stat set then the one i'm using atm, though its phys def is starting to be low for this level and also is magic resist.

Anyone can help me one giving me options? Also the royal sword had -3% channeling, which the TT70 I have doesnt. Just traded due to the +Magic TT70 had, giving me more mp regen, max mana and damage...which is essencial for heals/quests.

Thanks for all your opinions and time spent.

    TT70 armor, TT70 weapon, Eye of the Jungle belt, whatever nice physical neck you can find (level 77 quest neck is very nice)

    2X adventure quest rings

    Low level helmet refined for HP, probably lantern ghoul's helm

    TM69 cape

    Sleeves of Sea Captain

    Sakyamuni's Light level 70 mold magic sword is great

    everything with a few flawless citrines

    You are squichy, but you're not supposed to get hit much anyway. Only the AOE bosses that you find in some BHs might hurt a bit, but BB halves the damage you receive.

    Indeed you could socket everything with flawless citrines to make some extra HPs. But only do so with stuff that you are gonna sell or use on another character when you outgrow them.

    Other than that, i wouldnt worry too much about the equipment since your gonna grow out of it soon anyway. Just learn to adept your playstyle so that you dont receive any physical damage if possible.

    Thanks for your answer, but tell me when will i get those, or what is the name of "TM69 Cape" and others. Also you miss my point, that will explain on the Panda reply.

    Yes, ok, but both of u are missing my point, my curretn set gives me around 18 magic. If I trade for one of those items you guys mentioning, i'll lose alot of damage..and heal power...and mana regen... That is my main point :/

    I know it may be hard when you dont find a squad and you feel like you need to solo things... But really, you are supposed to be squichy and indeed that gets more significant when you progress trough the game. When you start out, you can stand there in the starting area, hit some mob, look at your skills screen to see if you have other interesting skills all while the mob keeps hitting you. As you progress you have to learn more and more to avoid getting damage. And unfortunately on a game where most of the players are lvl 100+ and few people are actually playing at the lower levels, that means you will need to play with a squad. At the higher levels (where you are getting now) mobs are gonna kill you in a few hits and sometimes even one hit if they get to hit you. That is normal.

    You dont lose anything by putting shards into your equipment. You can buy for 14 tokens a flawless citrine. The tokens can be bought at catshops for 10k. You can put this into the sockets of your equipment at the armorer. Since 140k might well be a significant amount of money for you if this is your main, only do this in items that you are gonna sell later since they gain this same amount of money in value.

    Also, dont focus on magic from your equipment. The way to go with a low-mid level caster charachter imo is to put no points in vit, but focus the equipment you look for purely on HPs and physical defence.

    if you want cheap good options, check the AH every few hours for purple equipment with good stats on them. make sure they have at least 4 out of the 5 elemental resistances, preferably all 5 though. And then look for things that have lots of HP mods, physical resist mods and a nice price. Some people will think their purple items are worth a lot and put it on sale for 100s of thousands, but often you can find nice items below 50.000 coins.

    At this level you may be starting to get into FCC. That means you will be gaining multiple levels a day and you will outgrow your equipment very fast though. If you do FCC, and you are not a starting, non CSing player and thus poor, try to make your squad do the optional quest as well. Save the token thingies you get there and at the end, and when you have a bunch of both, get the boxes those give when you really finish the instance (something that is not too often done) On my server, those boxes sell for 300-350k each.

    I play on Archo.

    1) So your saying I shouldn't care about those 18magic? Thats almost a Magic Shard...which is alot:)

    2) Also, can you please explain what is FCC? If its those FC squads in World Chat, i have to pay near 1mill to get in or 300k in some. Thats way too much for me..since im poor.

    3) What is a non-CSing player?

    4) I'm lvl 74 with 53 VIT, 39 STR and 321MAG. (and 10 dex, i was newbie and puted 5points in dex early lvl 10's...)
    Should I keep putting 1point on Vit each 2 lvls?

    Thanks!

    well its like this, you have 300 magic from yourself, adding 18 means adding 6% to that. That in turns means adding like 3% to your heals or damage. While if you focus on HPs from your equipment, you can have a much more significant increase in your hitpoints. Also, i forgot to mention refining. I do not advise to refine much espescially low level equipment, but as soon as you get something that you think you will be using for a while, you can cheaply refine it to +2 or +3 for some extra hitpoints.

    You see that FC indeed advertised on WC for those prices, but that is when someone else clears the instance and then sells it to you so you get the rewards (very, very good experience) But you can also do the whole instance with a squad and it will cost you nothing except a few hours of your time and some mana potions.

    Non CS means that you do not use the cash shop and do not pay real dollars to buy ingame stuff.

    I can put in 12euros a month by mobile phone. Already bough some wings for myself :)

    Can you further explain taht FC for me?

    How should I approach to find a suqad for non-paying FC? Where is FC exaclty located? Where I take FC quests? What lvl? If more info please say :)

    EDIT: Some people say its only worth with Hyper EXP stones though...

    full FC is also sometimes called for in WC. Or you can make your own squad and ask in WC for people to join like this:
    LFM FC 73-83

    and then optional you add what members you need. At these levels, FC is difficult and you will need a squad with:

    barb
    cleric
    seeker
    The rest isnt essential, but a BM is nice to have as well. As you get higher, the requirements get easier until at level 100, with the right equipment the instance can be done solo.

    It is difficult below lvl 80, it is supposed to be played in the 80-90 range. It is really easy after lvl 90.

    FC is a bit east of thousand streams, you dont need to get quests in advance.

    Best is if you first get someone experienced to run you trough it and explain everything. Unfortunately i am traveling and not playing or i would teach you. Also i advise to get into a guild and make friends. You can do with public squads but below 80 its gonna be hard and it may take a lot of time to even get a full squad.

    Also read some guides online about the instance. Squads sometimes arent too patient with new players so try to know what its about before you go find public squads.

    Thanks so much with the detailed explanation. I just reached lvl 74, and apart Realm(Meditation), BH quests I don't see any other way to sucessfully and fast to raise my lvl, since I've done all Avaible Quests under the 50-90k exp range. The only one missing is to Solo in TT to save 2 Kids, and another to kill Chrono and dunno what in TT which gives 140k exp. So I was woundering about other ways to exp...

    Again thkx for your time and willness to help:)
