Decent low end/ low cost gear?

Sniker · #1 05-08-2014, 11:48 AM

Time to ask another piece of advice for my mage (lvl 12).

I've been trying to save up all the cash I can, but I've been spending most of it on spells. Figured those are the most important items to get [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I've been killing wisps, bears, etc to try to get items to sell and I've made a little money.

Right now I have about 250p I can spend on gear, but have no clue what to get. Currently I'm running around in cloth armor looted off mobs, so I'm not even sure which slot I should work on first.

Thanks all

Best upgrades will probably be MH/OH. Pick up a Sacrificial Dagger (http://wiki.project1999.com/Sacrificial_Dagger). Can usually grab one pretty cheap. Can't do the Stein of Moggok quest, as not an enchanter, but can probably pick one up for not too costly.

Only way I have found to get decent starting items with the little money I had was to sit in EC and watch what people are spamming. OR, use this tool ( http://ahungry.com/eqauctions/ ) and see what people are posting without having to sit in EC.

Edit: Best time to do this is later in the day, when more people are online and theirs competition for business. Or better yet, during the weekend.

Looking for a new weapon. What should a broke lower level player shoot for ? I'm currently using 1hs but, im level 2 so it doesnt really matter.

I'm in the same boat OP but the good news is us Magi don't really need much in the way of gear. Im currently 23 and most my gear is either cloth or nothing. I don't even have a robe, lol.

Things that I would suggest you save your money for...

Spells, Focus Items and Jboots.

^those things all cost money and will increase your power much more then some low level gear. Just something to keep in mind. Maybe save up and get a Stein of Moggok since they're pretty cheap for 10 int upgrade. Maybe a cheap robe like a Flowing Black Robe for looks. Otherwise I would focus on levels and saving up for the important stuff.

Just my 2cp. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This is exactly right. Spells, focus items, jboots. Cheap robe for looks. Other items won't really affect your ability to kill things.
