Greensteel, properly chosen GS gear can be useful 11-25.

Low level the full abishi set is super handy.

Level 1-5, who cares. 5-9 abishai. 9-20 shroud gear.

Same fucking answer that it has been for years.

MUST HAVE FOR CASTER ER AND TR: Sage's locket lv 15.

MUST HAVE FOR MLEE TR AND ER: Shard of power crafted with mlee alacrity 10%

Extras:

Guardian's ring heroic version for ER.

I find old raid gear very useful, specially abbot gear for caster and, obviously, greensteel for everyone. If you duped you only have to get shards! Also love having VoD goggles and HoX bracers.

Seal of house avithoul for mlee ER.

Pair of Drow khopeshees for mlee ER if you are TWF.

ESoS for mlee ER THF.

Kundarak boots if you are lucky to get them for ER and TR.

That is basic. Rest of TR stuff is cannith crafted. I have a set of +4 stats and +6 stats on my chars. For ER I mostly use lv 20 epic items and then change a few items at lv 25 when ee gh gear kicks in.

Shadowfell, heart of madness, trials of archons, devil's gambit, and temple of evil all have great heroic gear.


That is true. Specially the trials and devils gambit items are overpowered for the level, if you have patience to run the quests to get them.

The ship buff is not usually active in quests where the Quiver is still very useful.

The new stuff is so good I may actually do a few more heroic lives! Have to grind out some ToEE gear, though, not sure I can. It seems like a neat concept but I feel like I spent a lot of time auto-running on my first half-trip.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Really? I find that it is nearly always active for the first 2 hours or so of the buff.

I also abuse this.

  I have to agree with the latest packs suggestion. I have never made a greensteel item  There are too many crafting systems in the game and greensteel is just one I decided early not to partake in. (Caveat I began playing in early 2014.)

The items from the newer content however make my static group characters seem overpowered, or at least equivalent to the much more experienced, greensteel using players in my guild that I run with.

Some new weapons have its uses. Riftmaker outdps gs weapons against some targets but gs is better general dps (also lower lvl but who cares?).  Divine artillery is neat but sloting sneak elsewhere and using a rad2 xbow surpasses it.

Also, of all the crafting stuff you decide ignore shroud? i respect your decision, but dude...  Undecided

Greensteel is definitely the best for all around twinkletoes, but only if you're doing heroic TRs

I'm personally always on the hunt for something to bridge "the greensteel gap". up to maybe 6-7 your basic, every-day crafted items do the job. Then you hit 8 or so and they start loosing steam. Loot gen is no better, and you've got 4 full levels before you can taste the might of greensteel.

ToEE gear should do the job nicely, methinks. Just gotta farm. And farm. And farm.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

Go back in time. ML8 weapons back in the day. I didn't get one in time, think I was on a break when Shroud was first out iirc. But some, fewer these days, still have them.

I actually stopped heroid TRing because of the greensteel gap! Got so bored between 8 and 12!!!

It's not supposed to be, but it is for a few updates now so striding is pointless for most players.

Heroic 3BC has really good twink gear. The named items from the wilderness rares. Tiefling Assassin Blade is very nice at level 4. If you're swashbuckling then it's amazeballs.

That explains it! I'd taken a lengthy hiatus and came back a few weeks ago, been very, very confused as to why everyone was faster than me. Like was there something I was missing? Why am I moving so dan slow?! That answers that.

The heroic ToEE weapons bridge that gap now, being level 7.

That is, if you're willing to farm for them.

Weapons at one point in time were 8, while the gear was 9.
