I picked one up off of a Vendor for 84 pp in Highpass. It was quite a find for a (then) 17 Necro. While it drops my AC by over 20 when equipped, the added Int gained by that slot has been of immense value.
Why am I that concerned about AC anyways? If I have to get in the mob's face, I better be doing one of two things: Fear Kiting or Feign Death. Either one doesn't get me hit if done correctly. If I am actually going toe-to-toe with it, it's because I am a numbnutz who forgot about FD or FK. Or I got too much agro in my group. Either way, I then would deserve the pounding being summarily delivered.
This necro is going to hang onto it for a while, at least until I can get a better waist Int item.

What a piece of garbage. People are fools to think that agi only means what it shows in ac. Agi effects your chance to dogde or a creature to miss. This is second most important stat for most casters.
Please show me some evidence for this. Firstly it has been Stated by Verant that Stats do not effect the succsess rates if any skill. Secondly the Chance of an opponent missing is detirmined by you AC.
well...it has a nice name, especially if you are an evil character or a really farked up dwarf :) int waist items are kinda hard to come by cheaply and im sure this will get to purity belt cheapness very soon, hehe
Casters could find this useful.. 3 int never hurts, and they're' not tanks... by the time they hit Kael Drakkal they shouldn't be meleeing at all.. or just replace this with a staff when you do wanna melee. AGI and DEX don't hurt casters much. AGI - affects AC (and ten doesn't affect it hardly at all) DEX - affects how fast you attack. All around, my enchanter wouldn't mind this.. AND AND it's weightless...
- Remember to rate my posts if you think I did a good job.. I wanna be SollalronSunfyr, Sage. Heh.
I figure that you should just go get a netted kelp belt if that 3int matters that much to you (unless you are a chanter) cause the kelp has more int, 6sta and 6str as well as decent sv fire.

Would be nice if such a crappy item at least had one great resist stat on it. maybe a +25 poison or something interesting.
It actually is quite usable. 3 int is not bad for casters and the 3 stamina can help when they run(heh heh heh). I have seen all sorts of casters at plaaces that are lower level than Velious that use nothing but a pair of int or wis items.
