Newer SK armor help

[Zechirian2003]

<DIV>Heya all.  Just got a SK to lvl40 and am having a rather hard time staying alive.  I have really enjoyed the challenge of the several different play styles opened up by the SK and am really excited to keep moving.  But for right now I think I really need to fix my armor situation.  I've got lvl 29-32 stuff on still and am feeling a bit vunerable and find myself having a hard time keeping up with blues at lvl40 heh.    Anyways I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction be it questing for a nice piece, specific crafted pieces or whatever would help!  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have been thinking of just making an armorer alt to provide armor for my SK and all my other tanks/healers in the future.. Thoughts?  Really appreciate any help!</DIV>

Good old T5 times!!! You may want to look into a suit of mastercrafted Ebon, and start doing some HQs like the Jboots, FBSS, training is a shield & screaming mace! That should give you "decent" pair of boots, shield, mace and a haste belt! Most Items are wearable at 42 I think, the same as the revamp ebon armor!!I am an armorer myself, and well I wouldn't bother rolling an armorer alt & grind him up, as I find the items you can craft rather disappointing in later lvls, one can obtain much better Legendary gear!!! Plus you will need to spend a lot of time with harvesting raw materials to lvl him up, you may be better of selling the raws as there are a lot of tinkers around paying decent cash - and ask an armorer to make you the gear!Also if you have the cash & dont mind twinking, start looking at the broker for fable gear of the T5 raid zones, back in T5 there were a lot of nice tank items around ... good old shiny armor looks!And if i recall correct, RE and SolEye have been both revamp and drop decent legendary gear ...

<DIV>Yeah, with 42 you should go ebon armor and Journeyman boots from the heritage quest. The HQ for the boots can also give you nearly a level, depends a little on how much you've explored Feerrott till now <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV>As belt mastercrafted leather is also pretty good and normally leather is cheap. As jewlery i prefer mastercrafted ruby with INT at that level.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have stopped my armorer with level 35 or so, its really one of the worst crafterjobs, you don't have much reciepes, so much grinding, and also you have bad buffs and need long for ever crafting process. If you have also healer, i would go sage .. there is no other crafter with that much receipes, and if you only craft with vitality you nearly never have to do any receipe twice even if you never make adept3's :smileysurprised:</DIV>
