Equipment Guides for Levelling

[Mandragoran]

Having returned after a 2 year absence I have been struck by how much has been added to the game in terms of gearing. Add to that the tendency to run Reaper for the xp and it is not enough to coast by with Heroic Boots of the Innocent at level 24 O.o

I have spent a week now trying to glean information from forum threads with very little luck.

End game gear appears to be Ravenloft and Slavers currently with a few odds and ends to fill spaces in between. But, what about levelling gear? Thus I wanted to steal some ideas from the players who have turned TRing into something of an art form.

I know that there is a lot of gear and that you can craft much of it through the new Cannith Crafting, but what I am curious about is the specific gear guildies are using during their levelling process.

Make it class specific or general, happy to have any input.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Mand

Welcome back to DDO! Obviously levelling gear is dependant on class and wotnot but here’s the gear that I crafted to attempt to have minimum swap outs when changing to a different class;

Created for Bard: Levels 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23 and 26

Cannith Crafted Armour (I aim to craft this in every armour type)
Vitality
Healing Amplification
Parrying
Blue Slot – Armoured Agility

Cannith Crafted Goggles (Swap out)
Enchantment Focus
Accuracy
Insightful Spell Penetration
Yellow Slot – Enchantment

Cannith Crafted Helm (All classes)
Sheltering
Stunning
Insightful Physical Sheltering
Yellow Slot – Deathblock

Cannith Crafted Necklace (All classes)
Constitution
False Life
Insightful Constitution
Colourless / Yellow Slot – Master’s Gift

Cannith Crafted Trinket (Swap out)
Melee Alacrity
Spell Penetration
Insightful Perform

Shroud Cloak (All classes)
Fortification +100%
Protection +5
+45 HPs
+6 Con Skills

Cannith Crafted Belt (All classes)
Dodge
Strength
Insightful Strength
Yellow Slot – Blindness Immunity

Cannith Crafted Ring 1 (All classes)
Charisma
Dexterity
Insightful Charisma
Yellow Slot – Power

Cannith Crafted Boots (Melee classes)
Seeker
Diversion
Insightful Seeker
Yellow Slot – Striding

Cannith Crafted Gloves (Melee classes)
Doublestrike
Deadly
Insightful Stunning
Green Slot – Natural Armour

Cannith Crafted Bracers (All classes)
Resistance
Fortification
Insightful Fortification
Yellow Slot – Featherfall

Cannith Crafted Ring 2 (All classes though perform is redundant for most)
Perform
Devotion
Insightful Magical Sheltering
Yellow Slot – Wisdom

I should add that this will require an insane amount of collectables farming as well as high Cannith crafting levels. I can help you out with some collectables but I’m out of quite a lot myself and haven’t finished my levelling gear for most other classes yet!

Good luck!

Thanks Lisa, that is exactly what I was after.

As you say it will take time and collectables, but I am happy to do that. The point in the right direction is really helpful.

At least now my running to and fro will not be as aimless… slightly less so at the very least.

You’re very welcome 🙂

Hello John

I have gear crafted for levels 4, 7, 10, 15, 20, 23

Rings, cloak, goggles, helm, belt I consider to be core items and always have the same stat crafted on them across the levels (subject to crafting level restrictions)

This is what Im wearing at L26

Goggles.
A pair for each school with base and insightful on, plus topaz of relevent school

Ring 1: Cha/ Dex/ Ins Cha
Ring 2: Con/ Shelt/ Ins Con
Cloak: Wis/ Nat armour/ Ins shelt
Belt: Dodge/ FL/ Ins dodge
Neck: Cha 10/ Resist 10
Helm: Wiz/ poss Fort? / SF mastery
Gloves: Iron for H amp
Boots: Treads
Bracers: PDK
Trink: Rad/ Prot/ Ins Rad
Armour: Thunderforged
Wep 1: 7 slotted filli DC stick (used from L20)
Wep 2: LGS Ice

I forget the augments used, but I always craft on slotted items and always fill them with Augs.

Its probably not optimal but Corazon does OK with it.

This set works well with Auralock with just a few changes that I forget.

If you need any extra info for a specific level just ask
