I'd probably mention that the new level 100 rings from Morganthe are a pretty good alternative to the Aphrodite rings, especially if you're doing solo play or don't have keys stacked. They're pretty comparable in every stat for like everyone but Ice and life, and the universal block and extra crit can come in handy for survivability if you're really looking to upgrade from Alpha and Omega.
Just bought 12 year membership on my death/storm wizard. Super excited to hit max level. Im level 72 but theres still so much about the game that I dont know about yet. Love this game!
Correction- the amulet the drops from the wood key chest in lower zigazag gives 2 square sockets and an extra item card BUT- The boss at the end of lower zigazag drops a damage amulet as well that gives just a blade and the 2% damage for all schools but life (Life gets outgoing) and a tear and square socket instead of 2 squares.
One thing I like to do personally, is to get a ring from the bizarre at level 15 that has a square jewel slot. Then buy a arch mastery jewel from the shopping district. That way, during the first arc you can make use of arch mastery before you get it basekit at level 50
Honestly if I were to quest all over again, I'd always do dual boxing, for multiple reasons: -quests, where you gotta kill 3 mobs, or collect 3 things, can be finished within one fight -if you have a fire or a myth, you can use choke/blinding light as well as smoke screen, which speeds up fights quite a bit. Bosses in Grizzleheim/Wintertusk, as well as Azteca are actually stunnable -you don't have to refill your mana so often when leaving marks at NPC, so you can speed through faster -in boss fights, when you have 3+ people, there are 3 minions instead of just one, so fights last longer
Aeon will prob be fine for at least the next 30 levels. Don't fall for the gamble. Kingsisle wants you to spend more time in their slot machines cranking for the best stats. Just upgrade when you start struggling (and don't do pvp if you enjoy your life).
imo for end of game, if you have aeon keep that if you dont skip it and just do nightmare, even with just running team up ur gonna get the pity badge waaaaay before you get aeon gear
at level 150 you mentioned needing to be in a guild for some gear? would it even be worth trying to play solo up to that lvl i wouldn't be worried about pvp, but is endgame so challenging that its required to do raids or etc, would i be just stuck? sorry if I'm confusing in anyway I've never played the game at up until than i would like too but hearing some parts of the grind sound not fun or possible
Was hard to follow after Darkmoor but if I understand this right, you basically rock Darkmoor gear all the way until 160. Because you said skip Dragoon at 130 and no one farms Merciless at 150? Other than the couple misc pieces along the way.
I finally got to level 100 as a balance wizard and farmed some darkmoor armor and it feels really underwhelming. I'm kind of disappointed that I spent so much time leveling only to still be underpowered.

@@IceGoldPvP such a buzzkill. I have an old 110 road warrior wand with 4 pierce 10 fire and death damage and 115 crit/block. Is that fine to run instead of farming for the sword and shield?

I miss it when there were options like Morgy Athame and Amulet were good at Level 100. Wish KI didn't nerf them.

@@wondays654it's basically where you play wiz on two different accounts at the same time and carry yourself

i personally rock lvl 30 dungeon gear till 56 use my 56 crafted gear if i dont get all the ww drops rock that till 90

Darkmoor will get you through, but the best robes are locked behind guilds unfortunately
@@IceGoldPvP thanks guess if i do decide to keep playing i should follow along with your budget guide

Yeah pretty much, Darkmoor is just less of a hassle to get even though there's better gear options along the way
I got the aphrodite ring for balance on my first run. But the rest of his graveyard gear didnt drop until the 30s or 40s attempt at malistaire.

Hey Ice Gold, do you think giving up a 45% blade amulet is worth that 2% damage amulet from zigzag?
I’d say run the Jewel of the Feint over both. The zigazag amulet does actually also give a 45 blade but it’s also extremely hard to get
thanks so much! great video ❤ im super excited to start playing again :D
If you’re a whale and want to spend crowns for gear, are there any decent substitutes that can be made on the list for better gear/ grind skipping?
prof hoard hat boots and wand are all pretty good with decent drop rates
Im at 130 fire right now, should I bother getting any catacombs gear or just wait for 150?
prob best to just wait for 150

Meant to touch on this in the video but you HAVE to farm it on an exalted wizard which is why everyone hates doing it lol

This will help me so much.
Why exactly is crit a dead stat?
Once you have more rating than your current level, there's no point in getting more since the multiplier barely increases
How can you use the spell icy gaze
Advanced content only spell
Why does crit no longer matter ?
@@XxdextriousxX after you get to like 100 rating you’ve hit that 95% chance to crit, now it’s just marginally increasing the multiplier you have
