Z-Helm.. Just for the fact that you can benefit from the extra intel and luck.. You can get a Ele-wand later on as your progress further on your character.. My opinion though.

Definitely an ewand. But make sure it's the ewand that corresponds to your element. So probably ewand 1. It'll boost your damage by 25%, which is much greater than the 11-13 int you'll be getting from a Zhelm. But then again, an ewand is about 3-4 times more expensive than a Zhelm. So yea, if you have the money, get an ewand. If you don't, Zhelm ftw. xD Hope this helped.

Ele Wand 3 is Ice Lvl 70, and I don't have either, but most high lvl arch mages will probably say Ele Wand (If you can afford one).

Ele Wand if you want the damage and Zhelm if you want the defense and the INT for MP.

There is some truth in what he says, MP boost is never a bad thing. But if you are all about damage then go for ewand

I would like to point out that, aren't Z-Helms more expensive now that there are Karma scissors, so the difference in price is not as much? Or am I totally wrong :P?

If you can afford it, get the e-wand since it will improve your damage a lot more than a z-helm. E-wands are VERY expensive though.

Seeing as your a F/P im gonna assume your going with the bandwagon as a full out posion mister. Ele wand isnt gonna help you much with your mist but if you think you can gather the mesos for one by 120 and still buy a Zhelm now then do that.

Go for Ele Wand, I read your post as you being a cleric. Carry on.

F/P = ele wand 1 or 2 .... if you're rich then buy an ele1 .. if you're not then buy an ele2 ... 10% fire is still better than a zhelm ..and ele2 is kinda around 50mish .... (same as buying a vip zrun .... not trading by S.o.K) but at youre level, misting is your main skill to level .. so ele wand doesnt help alot. you dont really need an ele atm but later at 4th job ... from here till there still a long way and ele wands are dropping in price so i think better get a zhelm 1st ....which is good for your Mp and luk additional.
