Chaplain of piety inquisitor armor set

[Azuraelle]

Just saw this on Xanadu db: http://eq2.xanadu-community.com/eq2_loot.php?BrowseNPC=1&exp_id=7&pack_id=19&zone_id=77&target_id=231Does anyone know where it comes from? Is it just a eq2idb extract or as this already been dropped?<div></div>

I would have to say that armor is something I would wear the full set of. The name kinda sux and I am curious what it looks like but the EVERY piece has wisdom on it unlike our crappy relic. Plus the bonuses it gives are excellent. I am really looking forward to getting this set! Also I don't think anyone has beat all the content yet and gotten a full set so yes that has to be from the item database. If xanadu has a full set then they have gotten really unlucky with drops to only be able to outfit a single inquisitor lol. So yeah its just pics but thats the type of armor that actually makes me glad to be an inquisitor. Thank god for whoever made this armor it is superb work.

[ronboga]

That is some sweet armor.

[auvii]

That is an amazing set of gear! <div></div>

[Somatic]

Very Little Str on these items<div></div>

[auvii]

<div></div>I would love to hear the reasoning for wanting str on those sick items. I can only assume its for some of the new CA's but thats just insane to go close range melee when we are healers. As a raiding healer I am always at max cast range and as a soloer or even in small groups i can lay out some awesome dps with a high int. I'm sorry but focusing on str and making our class have dps is just lame and inappropriate for clerics. We are not dps or melee for that matter. CLERIC = HEALER<div></div><p>Message Edited by auvii on <span class=date_text>11-21-2006</span> <span class=time_text>04:42 PM</span>

Yep for new AA line I want str...Seems logical?they give us these great new AAs but then have endgame equipment that cannot Augment them?  Makes no sense?What's wrong with having STR on a few of the items?  All that int helps points out that Spell casting is where it's at....<div></div>

[Chanah]

<DIV>str en sta is all i want besides int and wis, and they devided that just nicely, me so wants this set ;p</DIV>

Any one know where this armor drops?

<DIV>As long as we get lots of STA and WIS, I can't complain.  The bonuses are definitely gonna be worthwhile.  Now I'm even more curious to see what our other fabled set looks like.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I think how it works is certain mobs in the expansion drop specific pieces of armor - similar to labs.  Too early for me to know for sure but that's the way it looks so far.</DIV>

[Spider]

this would be nice as long as u get plenty of str augmentations to add to it and fyi a CLERIC is by definition a BATTLE PRIEST  so get over your pure healer crap because there ARE no pure healers in this game

[jago quicksilver]

nobody cares about STR, it does nothing for our class, the stats are very nice how it is.if you are an inquisitor specced to do DPS, you will almost be guaranteed to never step into the zones that drop this type of loot, much less be an asset when killing a mob that would drop this type of armor, so your opinions on raid loot mean nothing.

<P>I'm curious to know who here has actually been raiding the new content thus far.  When it comes to named encounters, the overwhelming majority of any healer dps comes from debuffs with DoTs attached to them; almost everything else that comes from healers is, well, heals.  At this point, it does little good for us to try and do massive DPS when the MT or our group is spiking all the time.  So at this point in time, I'd take wis and sta over str any day; and I'm very glad our set bonuses are healing based.</P> <P>I will say, however, that I do look forward to DPSin again sometime in the future.  Maybe our last fabled set will have str :smileytongue:</P>

I'm really glad you have found this great opptomistic veiw on how we are DPS now. I know I chose a Cleric to rock with DPS and show up those other classes built to perform that job! Yeah....right. Dont flame people because they would rather see our class go in the right direction rather then the wrong. It doesnt matter where I sit in the raid, I still want the same thing, better heals and buffs for the class I chose. If I was forced to sit outside the raid everytime that doesnt mean I want some great enhancments to better boost my outside of raid effectivness. I dont care how much DPS we can do, what teir we are in, or how effective we are at soloing now. I want the healing class I chose.<div></div>

[Ssinu]

Since Inquisitor DPS requires switching gear, meleeing in AoEs and using buffs that drain our power something silly, it's just not something appropriate for a cleric to be switching back and forth on the fly for unless the content is trivial. If the content is trivial, we can do ok, but then there are no heals needed. The benefit of receiving your dps from spell procs/casting is that it is *much easier* between DPS (on trash) and heals on bosses due to gear/power loss.Then on top of all this we are priests, I don't mind their being a path for group/solo Inquisitors who like to push the limits and solo/tank and/or dps, but there should be at least one path in the Achievements, gear and all things Inquisitor for those of us who group /raid heal.<div></div>

[Beragon]

<DIV>I love the Setitem, i got my 2nd today from the Tactican ( boots ). Since this hard to optain Setgear is in, people want to raid more in our Guild and we having alot fun. So far we got around 8 pieces.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[jago quicksilver]

please, someone get a fraps of an inquisitor doing DPS on one of these new mobs with the massive AEs and tons of adds. and lspiderl, what level is your inquisitor? i cast one heal and outheal your entire mana pool.

<DIV>Jago no offence man cause I have respected ya for some time, however to say someones Inquisitor AA lines are wrong is kinda silly. I mean honestly what AA lines do we get that make us so much uber at healing anything? If your refering to the 8 point lower recast and cast times one then 1 ability out of several doesn't make or break our class. I am a raider myself and I been trying to find excuses to redo my aa's to not be a melee dps inquisitor but to be honest there just isn't crap to choose from. I can heal just as powerfully if I was in MT or DPS group and regardless of my AA's. The DPS side of the coin is that for those slow mobs that aren't AOE'ing a raid dead in 1 shot we can step in turn on auto attack and continue to heal and lose nothing cause auto attack cues to spell casting. So we have worthless healing AA's and most of em point to dps. Well so a inquisitor goes the dps line, the are a great group compliment now cause not only are they healing like crazy they are also pushing some nice numbers too. They have lost nothing in the exchange other than being more versatile.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Now to play devil's advocate. Ok so maybe our gear shouldn't have str being a requirment on it or even nessesary, doesn't mean that we don't want it for those of us who have a diffrent style than your own. I would also like to add that STR means jack for our dps. Buffing str honestly does very very little to increase our overall dps. I challenge anyone here to buff str up as much as possible and do a /weaponstats Then lower your str by 100 or such and then do a /weaponstats again. The overall max amount of damage you will do will only fluctuate by 10 to 15 max extra damage. When your doing 1500 in a swing, 20 more hp's ain't gonna win ya the fight, the next swing will. Str for clerics only really increases how much you can wear. I know this cause I have 400 self buffed str and tested it. BTW for those people who don't believe /weaponstats go to a lvl 40 mob do the weaponstats thing before the fight and during and check how much damage it says you should do. It will always be consistant cause if you have 100% crit. Keep in mind crits can be up to 1.3x or just +1 added to the number in /weaponstats. When I then lowered my str by roughly 200 i did weaponstats again and it instead showed i would do about 20 damage less on the max damage side. I dunno about you guys but a ton of str gear just to do 20 more damage is kinda silly for me. If the best mitigation gear there was didn't have str on it I would still use it. The only stats we should really be worrying about is wisdom and intelligence (intelligence only if you don't plan on being a battle cleric).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Its sad though. We still push great dps number regardless of str for the most part and we can boost our power so we really didn't lose anything. Don't get me wrong though I wouldn't mind our set gear having about +100 more str on it but hey I like the set regardless so heres to waiting 7 months to get it.</DIV>

[jago quicksilver]

<div></div>i guess i have been coming off kinda wrong with what i mean in my posts, and for that i apoligize. it doesnt really bother me that there are AAs for DPS at all, its just that there is a bunch of stuff for DPS, and nothing at all for healing when it comes to our AAs, and that to me is unacceptable. I dont mean to look down upon other people's playstyles or anything, but i dont like the fact that our Raid drops have stats to help people DPS, because on a raid, 90% of the time thats not what we do.our class right now is very underpowered, especially on the healing end, and its pretty [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]ed, especially since a fury can out DPS by 400 and out Heal us by 400hps in the same fight.our class needs some love on the healing end, and nobody can deny that, so its annoying when people say that we dont need anything for healing, and its even more annoying when people say we are a battle cleric. yeah, we have the battle part in our AAs, that much is obvious, but where is the Cleric part?<p>Message Edited by jago quicksilver on <span class=date_text>12-04-2006</span> <span class=time_text>03:50 PM</span>

I kinna understand what pyklis talking about in the thead. but I do agree with you, Stoig.Our AAs supposed to give us a 4 options in my opinion.1. healing lineif you feel you gear ain't good enough or you can't handle the healing in eof, pick up this line to increase you heals.<div></div>2. dps linefor some very decent equiped inquisitors, they do not have any problems to heal the group members. they go this line to increase the dps.3. debuff lineto help the raids, everybody needs to put the debuffs on. this line definally will help the debuffs during a raid.4. buff linewe are scout group healers, we should be able to do offer more dps to scout groups. this line will help them increase scouts dps.in kos, everybody is pretty happy about the new AAs. when we get a new AAs, we always think about where this point should go. omg i want this so much. i can't missed 50% increase casting speed. omg i want 100% crits I can't live without it...in eof, everybody is pretty much upsad about it. when we got a new aas, we always think about well, I don't really need this. anyways, this is useless.. I don't wanna go dps. i don't wanna take some crappy rez. I don't wanna get that stupid increase hate. i am a healer. why i need to increase the hate? ok,I wanna get my fanaticism. omg I shouldn't take fanaticism caz it curses a lot of much worse than it helps... lol the new maladroit.. is that kinna new joke?? you just don't have the choise caz every line sucks, and every single lines contains bugs.I just don't understand this. both kos and eof desioned by the same devs teams, why the first one kicks [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn], and the second one is a dump like straight going to the hell. I just don't understand this..

<b>Yea, I'm not a rude person but this thread's title is about gear that only top guild's on each server will get. </b>If you don't raid much, it will quite a while if you ever see this stuff if ever. This isn't lab. There really isn't much issue with discussing what raid Inquis would like to see on it. If someone wants to discuss PvP sets, or sets you get soloing or in 5 man groups - then start a thread for that and discuss that. That doesn't mean other playstyles such as solo or grouping is invalid. My best friends are in my guild and we certainly don't raid anywhere near 18 hours a day.That being said, I think its safe to say any raiding Inquis is only DPSing when our group is healed and debuffs are on, which isn't the fights/zones this stuff drops from... maybe in a few months once I have my full set and we have everything on farm status. But by then the content will be more trivial and this will be a moot discussion.What i would like to see on Inquis armor in general for raiding (and hell even solo/group) is different sets (maybe 3?) one focused on healing/buffing, one focused on casting dps, and one on melee dps. With concentrations on WIS/power/defensive abilities/Flowing Thought  + resists,  WIS/INT/cast procs, and STR/WIS/hp/melee procs. I'd then swap between the sets as I felt with using the first set on hard encounters and using the others on trash raids - (similar to lyceum, DT, etc from KoS) or when things are on farm status and not as much healing is needed.The issue is, EQ2 has long struggled with itemization, and until that changes I would prefer all 24 classes getting things that enhance their main strengths. Priests not being dps classes getting things like wis/power/resists first and formost, scouts getting dps, tanks getting hps/mitigation etc etc. But if there were more focus  on items, I wouldn't mind seeing 3 or so sets of gear or even 2 one for the main set of abilities(healing) and the other for the second set(debuffs/dps).<div></div>
