From level 220 to 315 to come, which are the best items to transcend besides weapons for survivability? 3 best of each slot if possible
The items should have highest number of efficient health (armor/hp/ magic resistances)
For example one of the best boots to transcend should be grynas greaves superior to virtov plate boots and even lolopanther boots because of close hp and one more gem slot.
imo
1.lolo plate armor/pants
2.newt plate armor/pants (not craftable atm)
3.virtov plate armor/pants
solmiki stuffs (lvl 330 orange equips); they are definetly not ingame yet I believe,though. I’d not transcend any armor yet unless you want to cry later on xD
If I look at the current equips (armory),their stats are way too bad to deserve transcendence imo. You’d have to at least transcend to stage 3 for each piece to have a noticeable boost, but at the same time just buying two lvl 5/6 yellow gems & putting them into your armor parts does a way better job defencewise.
The main problem here lies in the option that basically all good item sets atm only offer 1 gem slot on pants/shoes, and their stats are “bad”.
Additionally, since gem enhancement is not affected by transcendence, every shard you might invest now might become a regret later on, as the open world dungeon items will provide up to 4 gem slots in near future, which is better than any transcended non-solmiki gear…
Well, solmiki gear is out of reach for mortals like me for sure.
New items + appraiser should be the best for rank 8 duration?
At least, they will be cheap to upgrade +15 and transcend while 330 orange armor…
Basically yes. I’d put every shard you get into transcending the new lvl 315 weapons, because they can last you an eternity (at least till level 450+) if properly upgraded,gemmed and transcended.
The armor is not worth it if not Solmiki, because the next update can easily outshadow them as the max amount of +% for armor is +275% def/mamp/dodgerate/mdef and a few HP%.
Also, remember that you can’t trade the transcended equipment. If you have a good, well upgraded&gemmed armor, why not share it with your other chars?
Especially the 3-4 gemmed lvl 270+ equips will be useful for sharing through storage as you only need 1 set of armors for your whole team, which makes it, in return, easier to farm more shards…
