Slot 1 type 5: empty

These sleeves drop off of the Pounder Bros., level 57 max engage adept. I am bad with stats/lazy with calculating but all I know is that the Mana Con. IV on these sleeves seems pretty ridiculous when compared with the difficulty of attaining other items with equal mana con, or even with lesser mana con.

As it is I already wear these on my enchanter Fahyim, and plan on getting them with my mage Burasta, so this is not a "oh I'm done with this gear now it should be nerfed" suggestion. I just think that maybe such an easily attainable MC IV item might be kind of unbalanced??? IDK
 
Traekoth also drops a MC4 item (ring), and there is buyable mana conservation up to rank6. I see nothing wrong with this.
 
And this lil' toy drops off an XP mob and is droppable:

Robe of the Icarus
MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM
Slot: CHEST
AC: 7
Focus Effect: Mana Conservation VI
Effect: Boil Blood (worn)
STR: +13 STA: -13 AGI: +13 INT: +13 CHA: +17 MANA: +135
MR +5 FR -25 CR +15 DR +5 PR +5
WT: 4.5 Size: MEDIUM
Class: NEC WIZ MAG ENC
Race: ALL

And there is allways this thing as well:

Mantle of the Forest
[MAGIC ITEM] [BIND ON EQUIP] [PRISTINE]
Slot: Shoulders
AC: 16 (17)
Focus Effect: Mana Conservation V
Effect: Spikecoat (Must Wear Clicky, 10)
STR: +12 (13) STA: +12 (13) CHA: +15 (16) WIS: +10 (11) INT: +10 (11) HP: +100 (110) MANA: +75 (82)
WT: 0.5 Size: Small
Class: ALL
Race: ALL
Slot 1 type 5: empty
Slot 2 type 5: empty

More HP, more mana, more everything, and all you need to do to get it is track down someone who is willing to make/sell you one.
 
Mantle costs about 10-15k so thats not the best example, but please don't nerf those sleeves. The only reason I ever killed pounders was to try to get those for my cleric.

This mask is pretty rare and also requires at least one 60+ player for digging the map, I would argue that no it is not easier

But this is moot now because it has been shown that really, who cares!!!

Perhaps I was lucky, but I have got one for all my alts and my friends with out much trouble. So not sure about how rare it is.

I also feel that finding someone who can solo/duo an E map is far more easy, and much less time consuming, then waiting 3 days for a mob to spawn, getting 11 other people to help you kill said mob, having the item you want drop out of a 8 item loot table, then winning a roll against others who also want the item since it is All/All.

I guess other people have a different look on what is easy then I do, to each their own.

Ringers soloing/duoing Emaps: another conversation for another day!!

pretty sure thread is Case Closed
 
I'm locking this thread not because it was bad but because it was good, and I want to have one good thread that even has a "uh no" overall answer to the OP.

Yay.
