Nice Pants! Duking out an Ogre edition
If looks could kill...
Help make my alt twink shammie look more badass. http://wiki.project1999.org/Magelo_Blue:Labido He is currently wearing a Fungi Tunic and Black Chitin Leggings. I am trying to craft a cool looking toon around that look unless anyone has better looking leg suggestions. I don't like the look of Gatorscale on an Ogre. Thoughts? For shoes, I have Kobold-hide Boots on atm, but I am not digging the fact that this guy is running around looking apparently shoe-less due to the minimal graphic from the item. Extra points for suggesting unique looking items (in an aesthetic sense) on an Ogre Shaman (Rubicite dreamin' of course): Here are some of my dilemma's as I see them. Ears - Black Sapphire Electrum Earring vs. Ivandyr's Hoop Wrists - Golden Jaded Bracelet vs. Runed Mithril Bracer vs. Granite Bracer Head - Platinum Tiara vs. Jaundiced Bone Helm vs. Totemic Helm Arms - Dusty Rusted Vambraces vs. Totemic Vambraces vs. Jaundiced Bone Vambraces Shoulders - Tattered Mantle vs. Obulus Death Shroud Hands - Iksar Scaled Gloves vs. Jaundiced Bone Gauntlets vs. ? Legs - Black Chitin Leggings, Totemic Greaves, Gatorscale Leggings, Withered Leather Leggings, Jaundiced Bone Greaves Feet - Kobold-Hide Boots, Totemic Boots, Dwarven Work Boots, Jaundiced Bone Boots, Golden Efreeti Boots, Iksar Hide Boots, Withered Leather Boots, BIG RED RUBICITE MAN-BOOTS Am I missing something? (Well aware of the need for Djarn's Ring, Enshrouded Veil, and Idol of the Thorned) Suggestions welcome. | ||

I don't think you can make an ogre look cool lol. Maybe consider rerolling as iksar?

Good times, but I've had my fill of playing a lizard even though it was way back then. I chose Ogre for the simple reason of for frontal stun immunity, which I've never had. If looks were the only consideration I would have gone Barbarian. Hmm.. just noticed the Magelo for Labido is 15 hitpoint lower than he has in game, but the intro stats and equipment all look right. Interesting. | |||

I had some issues like that with the magelo as well, and it was that I was overlooking something minor. Doublecheck that your gear matches up; the magelo seems to be very accurate in my experience. And good luck with your ugly shaman :P

Ogres are what they are.
Regardless I'm looking for tips to make him more badass. In terms of rarity there are always interesting scarce things like Rubicite, maybe Golden Efreeti Vambraces from Sky etc. Then of course the 'not to be named V-word' expansion which is also imminent in however many months. Looking for those kinds of suggestions. | ||

I'm also looking for suggestions on the dilemma's I mentioned in OP for different slots that I have yet to iron out.
Thanks to anyone who may have insight | ||

Get a decent weapon - a big nasty hammer to smash the skulls of your foes. The Granite Face Grinder comes highly recommended. If you are to be a proper Ogre badass, and not some nancy-boy Druid, the only one-handed weapon you should hold is a big menacing spear with a dangling little red feather.
After that, to take proper advantage of your Fungi Tunic, you need a big HP pool. Go for +HP where you can get it, and take AC or mana wherever you can't. You seem to be mostly on the right path. Some specific suggestions: Black Sapphire Electrum Earrings Jaundiced Bone Gauntlets, Boots, Bracer (you'll want the bracer later for the effect anyway) Bracer of Scavenging Oh, and there's no shame in going shoeless. It's not easy finding decent shoes in 27EEE. | ||

Platinum Tiara vs. Totemic Helm vs. Jaundiced Bone Helm (3AC +35HP +50Mana) vs. (12AC +5wis) vs (18AC effect:Glamour) Would there be differences in your recommendation here depending on low level (1-40), mid level (41-52), or high level (53+)? One negative about my current Platinum Tiara is that it doesn't have a graphic. But the hit points are pretty nice. The other two have decently cool plate head graphics. | |||

Basically, at lower levels, I don't worry so much about AC. From what I understand, AC is capped on a per-level basis, so you'll hit that cap with nearly any kind of twink gear at lower levels. Give yourself the biggest HP pool you can, then. At higher levels, I feel AC plays a more important role for a Shaman since you can easily take a few hundred points of damage in one round. Obviously, a little HP here and there adds up, but in general I would only trade AC for HP/mana when there is a lot to gain. The Platinum Tiara is an interesting option, but I've got other things to spend 8k on first. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Loraen did some testing on the effectiveness of AC for a caster, and while it's probably similar for a Shaman, the actual cap should be higher. We just don't know exactly how much higher. Maybe I'll do some parsing when I hit 60 and have some free time. With our buffs, it may be that we can almost completely ignore AC on gear and just stack HP. | |||
