I’m running the legendary symbol of the slave lords and I have to imagine that there is something better to use. I just can’t be bothered because I want my true seeing and feather fall and Masters Gift.

There aren't a whole ton of better insightful CON items out there, definitely not one so easy to slot. When I was going over the gear-set I couldn't find anything more important to put in the trinket slot, and everything with better insightful CON is either a raid item, or goes in a slot that is taken up by the set.
I GUESS I could use the cloak of the city's champion, but is an extra +2 CON worth more than Insightful Evocation Focus +4 and Spellcraft +22 on a sorc?

So I settled on Legendary Boundless for the head piece to get the insightful wizardry.
1,079 fire spell power(not counting maximize/empower/etc), 63% crit chance, 65x crit damage.
740 force spell power, 55% crit chance, 65x damage
Still have the glove slot to fill. Also I need to find/farm a new Legendary Celestial Sapphire Ring. Probably have one on an alt somewhere, but that'll bump things up a titch more.
Any suggestions on gloves?

You want at least one LGS for crit chance. Many do helm.

It would have to be gloves because that's what's wide open. However... I'm not exactly sure what to craft. I've never quite gotten the hang of LGS.
Also, quick update: put the same gear on my main(who will actually be wearing it), got 1,111 fire spell power and 71% crit chance.

Fire spell crit damage tier 1 and tier 2. Don't even worry about tier 3 until you have the mats for it because tier 1 and 2 alone are a really nice boost.

Worth a shot. Really cool that you can get the value on tier 1/2. Mats for those are comparatively easy.
Now I just have to flag for it...

Don't forget that Heroic of those two quests counts for flagging.

Epic Red Dragon is supposed to add 3 levels to caster level.
Does anyone know whether those things work? I thought there were hard caps on spell levels. I can't find good info on meteor swarm though.
EDIT: MS may not have a cap... that may make that helm useful.. interesting..

^ Are you guys referring to that helm? As in the one that's an INSANELY rare drop from a barely-run raid?
I mean I have one from the giveaways a few years back on an entirely different character, but that doesn't help much unless they bring back those stupid BtC moving things.

Before this thread I hadn't thought about that helm at all. But, it's possible it would amp meteors even more. Interesting thought. You're right, it would be hard to get.
Although, you could definitely short-man it. Maybe it comes in the 20th list? Or does that raid even do that? I can't remember.
Very likely not worth the effort. I was just enjoying the theoretical.

The 20th list is only for heroic versions of the S/S/S items(EG heroic SoS). The helm drops only in the chest and with a probably rate lower than the red dragon shard.
Don't tempt me to re-spec my paladin who has it into a sorc to find out if its any good

I would complain but you make a persuasive argument
That and if they ever bring back those damn wishes of inheretance I CAN actually move it over!

Problem is the character who has it is also a crafter/mule and one of the only ones I have with max storage space. Just getting his inventory cleared out to where I can TR him would be a herculean effort, and THEN I'd still have to go favor-unlock all that shit again. However, if I ever find a way to move btc items or they bring back the fucking wishes... well... then you'll see!

Meteor Swarm is capped at 20 CL, right? Red Dragon Helm does not help with max caster levels.
Would be nice for Energy Burst and such now that arcane augmentation isn't super common,...if they are coded as having a spell level. Which I honestly don't know. The ability says "9th level or lower". Since they are actually SLAs, they might not have a spell level assigned at all. Or since they are simulating epic spells, if they have a spell level assigned, it should technically count as a 10th level spell (or higher).

That helm appears to be more unique too. Arcane augmentation adds 2 to level. Lesser aug adds 1. That helm adds 3 for fire spells

Incendiary cloud also supposedly doesn’t have a cap.. speaking of, I forgot that i use that a lot soloing. Aoe dot AND it blinds. That’s a win for damage mitigation.

Oh i got Incendiary Cloud hotkeyed, use it constantly. Especially fun when you actually have the ability to lay it down before the fight starts. Whats really fun is it ticks off for like 700 with that fire spell power.
I did also discover I'm not quite as hopless as I had thought. I managed to get through Red Rain and the prequest ok(I think I died once... but when else was I going to eat all those cakes?)
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.
