Armor Progression - 35+

[Slayage]

Hello. I started playing this game again recently and came to the realization that I really am clueless about most of the game.I've made it to level 35 with some really terrible gear.Question 1: What kind of armor should I be upgrading to on the way to level 60+? Is there a standard progression with crafted or questable gear?Question 2: When is the earliest possible time I can get one of those awesome skull helmets? Even if it's just for show.Question 3: I have 22 AA pts. Should I respec to reaver and rebuild my Int 4-4-8. Or stay Int and just work towards Reaver?Thanks in advance, this board rocks!

<p>My SK is only currently lvl 36... but i may be able to answer some questions, i have played other toons higher</p><p>Q1: Starting at lvl 12, and every 10 levels afterthat (12,22,32,42...) there are sets of "Mastercrafted" armor, these tend to be what people shoot for, though for a plate or chain class it can be quite expensive if you dont harvest the rares yourself...personally i saved up and bought the rares for the lvl 22 set and then i bought the rares for a set of Darkruned (which is the lvl 37 set for shadowknights from DFC) which i will be using till 52 when i get that mastercrafted set, if you plan on filling in the roll of MT, i would suggest shooting for the mastercrafted sets, there is also mastercrafted jewelry.</p><p>Q2: im not that high yet <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> i think hooluhs is like 62? or 67 or something like that</p><p>Q3: depends on what you want to do....i soloed to 35 and got tired of it... so i took my free respec on filled out the STR tree for extra agro, and am building my int tree back up to 4-4-8 before i go for reaver, but thats just me... if you go to the achievement counsel guy and hail him he will give u a free respec card with 5 charges on it, so you have some leeway to play around... my advice would be find something you like and roll with it</p>

<p>4/4/8 INT first is a nobrainer for me, because you have to know that, if our spells crit also the lifetaps crit. So you also get 67% crit fro blessing and all other lifetaps. </p><p>Also Damage = hate and healing = hate, so the increased damage and healing helps with aggro. </p><p>OK .. reaver may be more healing, but i would prefer INT first <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>The class helms are level 67.</p>

I make mastercrafted gear for my alts and it works just fine.
