36 sk need armor advice

[VeinTro]

<DIV>I bought most of my armor on the broker before the attune came out.  I financed my purchases with being a lvl 50 provisioner.  I cant seen to find things to buy anymore that are worth while.  My armor is turning blue.  Any quests and loots i should be going after?  If anyone has pics to go along with your armor pieces that would be great</DIV>

<P>There are several variables that come into play in answering your question.</P> <P>First of all, what's your overall goal with respect to armor?  Do you want to max anything (strength, agility, stamina, resistances, mitigation, etc.)?  Do you just want to have as evenly a rounded character as possible?  Or do you plain want to just look cool?  I think a lot of people on these boards all have pieces that they think are "must haves" that other people wouldn't value as highly.  For example, I chose to max out strength at the sacrifice of all other stats, and while self-buffed I've got close to 130 at lvl 34, my intelligence is embarrasingly low, not to mention the fact that I look like a [Removed for Content] patchwork man.</P> <P>Secondly, can you post what you have now and the corresponding stats?  You may already have some pieces that might be "the best" for whichever armor goal you are pursuing.</P> <P>Lastly, how much money do you want to spend?  At 36, you're kind of in that in between spot where you can spend a gold or 2 on some major armor pieces, and quest the less important stuff, and save money till you hit 40 where you'll be doing a major armor upgrade anyway.  But being a lvl 50 provisioner, money might not be an issue and therefore, checking out the broker and doing stat comparisons might be the best route.  Imbued armor is nice, but I haven't purchased any as prices seem to be ridiculously high.</P> <P>That being said, at 36 you might want to start the Shiny Brass Shield Heritage quest to work on before you hit 40.  There are other nice shields like the Guard of Grumm or Wasteland Targ . . . for more info, search the forums for Kite Shield Data (I know there is a nice listing either here or the Pally forums).  As far as other pieces, there is a quest in Zek called Mysterious Medallion which I hear turns out a nice belt slot item.  I still go with Dwarf Work Boots for feet because of the stats.  Fishbone earing is nice.  I just check do the Heritage quests for slots that need upgrades - and try to get good armor pieces from the broker for as cheap as possible.</P> <P>Any specific slots you had in mind?</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

Imbued Feysteel BP and legs.  Will last you until the mid 40's roughly.  And then you want to aim at imbued ebon as a replacement for them, and fulgurate in all your other slots until you can get ebon or better for them also. <div></div>

<P>Fuliginate or however it's correctly spelt - imho looks great, i love the look on that armour, and well feyiron looks rusty and crappy, or like an elephant has taken a great big dump on you then in your struggle to get out of the suit without touching any you trip and fall in sand and it gets caked on you also, and you are stuck like it....</P> <P>feyiron is ugly to now that i think of it.</P> <P> </P> <P>But well, you are almost 40 hah so it's still a decision of to spend and splash out for a few levels, or save it and invest in something nice at 40, though keep in mind a decent item in the 40s could last you quite a while until an upgrade comes along.</P> <P> </P> <P>Braellar</P>
