Caster equivalent of a Fungi Tunic?

[Gylen]

For melees, a fungi tunic is pretty much the top item to increase leveling power.

What would be the caster equivalent of this kind of item? What would be the top item, for casters, would increase their leveling power?

I thought about Manastone, but a caster class like Enchanters might not have the best use for it.

Your thoughts?

Can't think of an item that by itself is going to do for leveling what a fungi does for melee. It would have to be something like manastone + wiz epic.

Prenerf fungi staff + manastone maybe?

[Barkingturtle]

Monk with a fungi.

Druid with a Fungi AND Manastone!

RoA, prenerf fungii staff, manastone. All no longer drop and are extremely expensive.

The fact you can damage mobs for good dmg from a distance or you have a pet to do it for you are caster's advantage.

I have an iksar necro supertwink (prenerf staff, manastone, roa, strength set, lots of goodies) I've been leveling in old world until just recently (he's 40 now) and I gotta say that past level 20, the RoA is probably the most useful thing in that list. Granted a necro has better opporunity to swing it fearkiting or whatever, but especially at level 30, RoA is ridiculously powerful. Hitting mobs consistently for 120-160 for no mana is retarded.

Too bad you missed out on using the RoA pre-nerf caster melee damage nerf (ninja'd in slightly over a year ago). The RoA was a beast on a caster then. Unfortunately the nerf bat made the RoA not as effective.

At 20-30 the RoA is all you need to level up as a caster, really. It hits so hard it can kill mobs in 3 max hits at those levels. However, 40+, even being super twinked, a caster can still bite the dust easily if he takes a beating too much (even wearing hp items such as heiro cloak, tank items (str))...

In short, the RoA will really only help a necro level up 40+ easily (due to fearing the mob and avoiding any damage).

For mages, wizards, and enchanters, i'm not sure.

RoA is just instant 40 imo.
best way to self pl.
PL'd my wizard to 40 on live with it

Iksar necro with jboots, CoS, zheart, hoigresh elder beads, RoA, Staff of the Dreaded Gaze, manastone and pre nurfed fungi staff.

Of course this would assume velious was out, but it would be cool if you did have all that stuff. I think it would be an easy level to 60 for sure. For the latter levels throw a robe of decay and epic in there. Hell on wheels! :D

snackers told me vp staff was insane for necro. sensing a theme here

[Ravager]

20k plat, JBoots and a few bags of Red Wood Wands. Cheaper than a fungi too.
