Solo Self Found Enchanter - gear list request

[Bobjenson]

Hi,

Made a solo self found enchanter currently level 13 doing wisps in Erudin crossing to make spell money and jewel craft.

After GLS turn ins I should be likely lvl 17 and was curious if anyone had some enchanted gear goal recommendations as I level and explore dungeons, etc.

I want to make this an adventure and enjoy the process of exploration as much as possible. Thanks!

Stein of Moggok is a fun quest, and doable by a level 12 agnostic Enchanter. It's a good piece too with +10 INT.

https://wiki.project1999.com/Qeynos_Badge_Quests is probably a good quest line too for an Enchanter, but I've never done it myself.

Gatorscale Sleeves are a classic caster piece, and not difficult to camp once you are at the appropriate level.

https://wiki.project1999.com/Coldain...r_Shawl_Quests Should be doable by a solo Enchanter in the endgame if you are willing to buy Royal Kromriff Blood from other players. I think you can get everything else self found.

Have fun doing self found!

Thanks for the quick reply! I'm underway witht the stein of moggok quest. I died 3 times and had long CR's back to blackburrow from Gfay but will be worth it.. appreciate the suggestions.

For sure you need a rod of insidious glamor. And there are some other decent pieces that drop in Guk like braided cinch cord, runed cowl, gatorscale sleeves and embroidered black cape.

I would personally concentrate on getting exp first and then farming stuff when you're a bit over-leveled for it.

Seems like we need an "Equipping an Enchanter" wiki page, so I started one: https://wiki.project1999.com/Equipping_an_Enchanter

It's not as advanced as the ones for Druids, Shaman, etc. ... but if people contribute to it, it could be.

This is exactly what I was looking for so I could kind of map out what dungeons to crawl for gear as I level. Hope to see this expanded, thanks again

My advice is that on a server this old, all tradeskills will just waste your plat: everything will take you more time/plat to make than if you just bought it from another player, or looted (something equivalent). Even on a fresh server, most tradeskills have limited value.

I say this as someone who has completed the "epic tradeskill quest" (7th shawl) and is currently working on mastering blacksmithing. I <3 tradeskills ... but they just aren't worth your time on P99 if you want to level.

Bonus tip: most gear isn't worth your time either, especially as a caster. Focus on levels and loot whatever you get as you level: you'll do just fine gear-wise, and reach 60 much faster.

Totally understand, just more into the journey and self found aspect / struggle for some reason ��

I forgot you were doing that, but everything I said still applies, if not more so.

In Classic EQ stat gear is designed to both look attractive and be worthless to low levels characters. That's simply the truth of the game.

And sadly, another truth is that all tradeskills can make is bad low-level stat gear (with a few exceptions that prove the rule, eg. tailored backpacks).
