Hey gang,My swash is my main and only toon I've taken past lvl 35, he's 70 and due to my TSing obsession I have all Adept 3 or M1 spells and am on the Castle portion of getting my SoD (Still in SS for my Claymore though)I'm in a family/friends guild so I don't raid with them, however I average a pickup raid about 3 times a month.   With my guild I semi-regularly tank and frequently solo.I have all of my Mccabe armor except hat and pants, pants are the Mastercrafted T7 chain pants.My question is what are the best adornments for a swash who does pretty much everything?  Not just for weapons but what would be best for all the adornments I can do, chest, ears everything.I have for tradeskillers a Provisioner, Armorer, Jeweler and Alch as 70 and am bringing up a sage and Weaponsmith in case the fact that I could make the items will play a part in the choices.I hope I didn't overwhelm with information but figured I'd give the complete picture.

<p>Not sure about all of them, but have your Alchemist make a Prismatic Applique for the McCabe BP  - that's the one that's +6 to all stats.   Also for your rings, your alchemist can make Lambent Polish that does +70 power to each ring. (there isn't a Scintillating version of that polish (that I know of)).   </p><p>I did the INT backings to earrings.   If you think you will be getting better pants from raiding or while you are in the Castle, you might just get the cheapest adornment for them with the thought that any boost of any stat is better than none.  I'll have to look at what they are called, but the rest of my items are a combination of STR, AGI, +'s to DPS and slashing/piercing.</p><p>Grats on 70! <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY<img src=" width="15" height="15" /> </p>

<p>A few suggestions based on what my 70 Swash is currently wearing:</p><p>Chest: Scintillating Prismatic Applique - increases STR, STA, WIS, INT, AGI by +6  (tends to be a little costly, however)</p><p>For most other armor, jewelery or weapon slots, search adornments on the broker (or your recipe books) using the keywords:</p><p><b>Spry</b> (+ DPS)</p><p><b>Vigilant </b>(+defense for when you might be tanking)</p><p><b>Agile</b> (+AGI)</p><p><b>Brawny</b> (+STR)</p><p>I'd play around with some of these adornments and mix and match them to fit your needs.  I'd generally avoid adornments that add resists, as they are often quite minimal.  And don't be afraid to use lower tiered adornments as well when the Scintillating adornments are too costly to buy or make.  Every little bit helps!</p>
