Strictly for stats, would it not be an item desired for... say a wizard in the scenario of Gorenaire? Now that Gore is 100% a wizard's duel (though it always was to some degree), doesn't the large int bonus and MR allow for you to swap out other MR and mid level int items for pure mana and hp+ items?
With MR capped at 255 you would ideally go 1 cleric for HB, one bard for MR and 4 wizards per dps group. Swap out items that give less than 10 MR or less than 13 int for hp and mana items so that your mana pool is as high as possible and your MR stays maxed at 255 with bard song.
