<DIV>Hi all, </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Well at the moment I am a level 42 wizard, and generally enjoying the class.  Found the late 30's a bit of a grind but now have group root and new nukes so soloing has become more entertaining.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I feel that I am on the right track but have a couple of questions to the Wizard community.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1) I currently have 280 ish INT at level 42.  From what I can gather from reading the forums this is ok for this level but could be improved with better gear (is this about right ?)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2) Currently decked out in RoV Legendary items.  And I am hoping there is some more similar LORE Legendary items for T6, does anyone have any advice on quest lines/items ?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>3) Struggling with armor for legs and gloves, still using AQ pants and Fog Grimmin gloves, any decent drops that people know of for my tier ?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>4) Last question relates to AA points, at the moment I mostly group with some soloing.  I had been putting my AA points into INT with the mindset that I can respec later once I reach cap.  However looking through the AA descriptions I think I would like to respec early to get Freehand Sorcery (?) the line that adds spell DMG.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is this advisable or should I add AA points to both lines until INT caps ?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Sorry for so many questions, any help would be much appreciated.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>I wouldn't worry about T6 gear yet - T5, if I remember correctly, has some decent pieces from Everfrost.  Don't remember what it's called, but it drops off the stags by the snow leopards.  Also there are a couple of good +int drops from a couple of solo names in Sinking Sands.  The 2 skeleton snakes - if you clear the area they'll eventually pop - and a named goblin up in the NE of the zone - all 3 drop nice +int items and you should be able to solo them in your late 40's.  I think they're level 51 or so.</P> <P>Once you hit T6 and Sinking Sands, there's a ton of +int items that you get from the dock quests.  The quest items are mostly accessories if I remember, but also the T6 crafted rares weren't too bad either.  Now this is pre-GU 25, so don't know what the stats are on the T6 handcrafted/mastercrafted now.</P> <P>Your int is fine - the early 42's are hard gear-wise, but 280 is fine.  But, if you're respeccing your AP's note how much of your current int is coming from AP's in the INT line and you'll need to compensate for that.</P> <P>Lastly, you'll definately get the most bang for your buck with freehand sorcery at your level.  I'd get to there, and then kind of ignore your AP's until you get more and have more options.</P> <P>--Scarllett, Everfrost</P>
