<DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Should I go try for fulginate set with imbued bp, legs? What about the Sootforge that I've seen? Are they better for the early 40s?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Any quest must haves are also appreciated. Thanks a bunch in advance.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

just letting you know that plain fulginate works wonderfully, im not sure about sootfoot, but fulginates resists are very nice.  At first your mitigation is lower than at 39 with feyiron, but the resists are so much higher.  If imbuing was around when i bought my fulginate i would def have gone for that so with ur savings im sure even a set of fulginate with imbued BP and pants wouldnt set you back to much.  Im sure there are other options just lettin you know fulginate works great <div></div>

<P>Grass lined greaves are nearly as good as Ebon.</P> <P>Search Orclord and Praetorian for those lines.  They are real nice and equippable at 39 to 45 depending on piece.  If you go to DFC there are quests for them there.</P> <P> </P>
