gearing mages

[Sandbox]

its been so long since i've played anything that resembles a mage that i've forgotten all the gear lmao.

as a mage with high mana low hp do i focus on mana hp or ac? so far i've been focusing on hp but i don't know if thats the preferred method, i know mana is more important than hp late game but i could probably use some pointers here.

Depends on what you're playing. If you're an invoker and have enough mana already to fully charge items, then hp eq is mostly what you need. If you're a bmg, -ac eq tends to be best. For a necro, it depends on how long your fights last regarding whether you want hp or -ac eq - the longer the fights, the better ac is than hp.

Check around in minoma, the elemental canyon, old thalos, and the miruvhor area.

Unless you're a necro, then elemental bracelets are right out the window. Freakin' odd material they're made of....

thanks! i've been focusing on saves hp and ac for the most part. Trying to divert from my ranger a bit, and learn some of the other classes so i can combat them better, its been so long since i've played caster/communer that i forgot what they can do against me in some instances.
