New Necro Charm

Hopefully soon I will have the cash to upgrade my charm to one of the 38k charms.

However, I am somewhat undecided which way to go. I don't really feel like I need the FT all that much, being a Necro, and am thinking of getting the Recovery 6 charm instead.

I realize there are plenty of other items I need to upgrade as well, but the charm is my main focus for now.

I rarely raid (In fact only twice in over a year of playing) , and dont get to group that often either. Mostly solo, but I want to be valuable in groups should the opportunity arise.

Thoughts? Opinions? Open to any serious suggestions.
 
2 ft is worth ~100 mana. 2 ft > recovery 6 all day every day. Charm of shojar is your best choice.

Guess I dont quite understand the math on this.

Can you elaborate a bit more please?

Each FT will cause you to regen 10 mana per minute. A common formula for comparing mana to FT is to consider how much mana you'll regen over five minutes.

2 ft = 2 mana every 6 seconds, 20 mana per minute, or 100 mana per 5 minutes.

General thoughts I've heard before point to the fact that if you are raiding, 5 minute fights are not unheard of and therefor the FT2 is worth more than the 100 mana on an item.

Recovery 6 doesn't mean a TON to me as a Necro I guess... I lifetap occasionally which does damage as well, or I have druid regen on and there are no worries... in the case that you may have a healer around, druid regen on, etc... I think FT wins.

I mean, don't get me wrong, as a solo Necro, having enough Recovery to never have to tap, get healed or have regen may be nice but if you could have that in FT instead... you'd easily regen back the cost of your taps to top you off.

ahhh.. so this is where I went astray. Wiki says ...

When worn, an item with flowing thought will grant increased mana regeneration at a rate of +1 per level of flowing thought. So, an item with Effect: Flowing Thought III will grant the wearer an extra 3 mana per tick.

20 mana per tick is a worthwhile, 2 mana per tick is questionable.

I'm ... highly convinced that the Wiki is correct. It's still 100 mana every 5 minutes which is still pretty decent. But being a Necro and being that you solo most of the time, maybe it's a closer call than normal... I dunno. I'd say FT2 unless you find running Lich to be completely unmanageable.

I think I should be fine. My Recovery is 21 right now, and with that and potions I am able to stay at 100% health most of the time.

The only reason I was thinking about the recovery 6 charm really was so that I could replace some other items like my secondary and chest piece.

Oh well,,, still got a little money to save to get there anyway.

Thanks for all your input. Very much appreciated.
