Level 30 Gear Suggestions

[Forbi]

<DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am currently level 29, and still using my level 20 AQ gear.  For weapons, I have almost acquired PGT for One hand, and Bronze Halberd for 2 hand.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Concerning armor, I know there are some nice legendary drops in RoV, but what about crafted gear?  Any suggestions?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>thanks in advance.</DIV>

Depending how long you think it will take for you to go through T4 (lvl 30-39) I would not spend the gold on rare crafted gear. I would consider regular crafted gear if you can get it cheap. RoV and RE have some nice loot for zerkers but not until you can stand lvl 35+ ^^^ heroic mobs.

<DIV>I recommend checking the brokers and looking for silvril vanguard pieces. These are drops from CoB and are better then the pristine feyiron crafted. If you watch carefully you can get some good prices. I picked up a complete set with most of the pieces costing less than 5gp. On the other hand I sell pristine feyiron vanguard I craft myself for 4gp a piece on everfrost. Note that crafted feysteel (rare) armor is selling for over a plat a piece, too expensive for me !</DIV>

For cost effectiveness... go for the silvril, or enchanted black iron, or blackened alloy.  Theyre all good pieces, some have better stats than the crafted rares even.  And like the above poster stated, its relatively cheap.  Unless you plan on being in the 30's for a very long time, or just have that much money to spare, dont bother with the crafted legendary stuffs (sorry all the armorsmiths out there)  Even as a casual player, I level much to fast for the level 30 rares to be worth their cost.  Save it for the ebon at 40, or cobalt later.  Just shop around, and dont be too impatient and blow cash on overpriced goods that will be outgrown in a couple of weeks.  My zerker is 34 <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><p>Message Edited by ParlMoebius on <span class=date_text>04-27-2006</span> <span class=time_text>05:12 PM</span>

<P>PGT is a dual weapon. Do not try to use a dual weapon as a 1hndr, it really drops your attack rating.</P> <P> </P>
