It would take a lot to replace my Blue Diamond Velium bracers, but I guess they are good for people who dont have good int items, they are about as good as a gold chitin bracer. This is just another one of those things that when you get the gems or armor compontent you can look like a nice guy and give them to another caster in the group.
stats suck, typical for an enhcanter epic level wristguard. I get better stats from an item in a newbie HS and WL (karnor) group.
as with most of this armor saves from any particular peice by itself aernt enough to be a factor, a entire set is ok saves, but specialized items work better anyway.
Necros and mages get this effect on their Kael bracer also Homie. I agree that the effect is very worthless (ooo, I don't have to go mem reclaim energy now!), but don't whine about how ENC is getting screwed over here.
are these stats post patch? I heard someone mention that stats of these the other day and this wasn't what he said. Anyone know? I have almost full PoG enchanter armor and I'm interested in the difference to the new Kael armor.
you call BoG an illusion? I think I've cast that spell perhaps 20 times since the expansion came out. and it wasnt what I had in mind when they 'have no room' for illusions, but they have room for bertoxxoulus (sp?), red dragons, velious dragons, iksar skeletons, spectral iksars, scarecrows, bristlebane, FV, layns, tunarie... and the list goes on from there..
perhaps had they not lied about the no room (they said this before bristlebane and bert and velious dragons and tunarie was added) it wouldnt be so upseting, but unfortunatly they did lie and now it is coming back at them from alot of enchanters.
Yeah, but mages actually use Reclaim Energy.. Have you ever seen a 50+ enchanter with a pet (and not in Gfay or a town zone, or farming an item in a lvl 20 zone)?
As a matter of fact, I had my pet out in Chardok a few nights ago when I was LFG. Found that I could get some pretty decent XP actualy..Bedlem them pet, slow the mob..and walla. Is it worth reclaim energy? Probably not :)
