Hey, I have a lukless blaze and have been using an ele wand 1 since level 70. I was wondering if it would be worth it to get +luk gear to use a staff 1? * Need 105 luk for staff, 113 for shoes and gloves, 104 for overall * Base 4 luk with: Layout: Zhelm with +20 luk = 24 luk Horntail with +22 luk = 46 luk Titanium Rec. with +10 luk = 56 luk Palette with +14 luk = 70 luk Lilith ring with +3 luk = 73 luk Black belt with +8 luk = 81 luk Cape with +12 luk = 93 luk Bathrobe with +20 luk = 113 luk Blue Elemental gloves with Adv luk crystal ( +10 luk ) * Possibly more with the adv black in it * = 123 luk Blue Elemental shoes with Adv luk crystal ( +8 luk ) * Possibly more with the adv black in it * = 131 luk Blue Czar with Adv luk crystal ( +9 luk ) * Possibly more with the adv black in it * ^ Swap out bathrobe = 142 luk Now with 142 luk I'll remove the cape for a normal int/m.att ( = 130 luk ) Then I'll take off titanium reciever for an int/m.att earring ( = 120 luk ) Now I should have enough +luk to wear all this easy enough and be comfortable. I would still scroll my new blue elemental set with int and shoot for getting at least 130m.att on the staff. Would this be worth it? ( Account is used for selling leech )

i hope you realize that your meteo is nerfed. f/p would have been a better choice now that you're contemplating selling leech with possibly maxed meteo. full strength of meteo compensates for the lost int points and then the AM only gets better as you level. Also, 25% is 25% no matter what. You're losing a potential 80-90 int for a weapon that gives less than what you lost.

[/quote] Elemental wand and staff both give +25%, the difference is about 30m.att ( from clean to clean ) Also I'll have 10int or more from the gloves ( clean ), 9 int and 1 matt from the shoes ( clean ), and 12 int from the overall ( clean ) to work with. Thats roughly +31 int and 31m.att total I suppose. Considering I would be using the same horntail, earrings, cape, and zhelm I'm not losing much out on the gear factor. ( So where am I losing the 80-90 int from, since I stated I will remain lukless.. ) As far as meteor is concerned, I would have the same base stats as a lukless level 134 AM. My meteor is nerfed, but I do get it at a lot lower level. Meaning I'd be selling it cheaper

the moment you take off those earrings/cape, the 22 luk missing will immediately unequip your gloves. With no glove, the shoes and then the overall all become unequipped.

I would stay with the elemental wand 1. You're better off adding INT gear instead of LUK.

I made a 52 WA because I knew I would get nowhere near 120. I quit it at 52. Yawn.

Go with wand. If you spend all that money on LUK gear, you can spend the same amount and get INT. With a Wand, it'd be better.
