I am not as well versed as many others here in regards to equip toons, looking over your Magelo certain things come into my mind though, once you get TSS.

- Take a look at the lvl 45 quest armor from TSS, offered by Scout Mardu in the Mesa. bp, sleeves + legs have FT + Regen as well as foci for the latter two. Foci are at lvl 3 each.

- Replace the adventurers stone with the Wanderlust Guild Stone from Crescent Reach. You can use the mage porters even if your stone is in the bank. It is easily done, and will give better stat adds as the AS. If you are into alchemy consider doing the TS charm, it has 2 aug slots, and would take the Slip-gear aug, as well as the Wanderlust one.

- A centaur Legat in the centaur village in the Mesa drops comonly chain bracers (non-lore), which will be an upgrade. Unfortunatly I am not sure about the req. lvl. It is the one to the northeast, beside the box. he has a long respawn though. (1 eq day ?)

- In the 50s there is a nice BA 4 shield dropping off a healthy puma in the roost, entrance area.

- Once you get mage armor and maybe weapons (fists of Ixiblat) for dogdog, use a shroud before logging, so pet keeps all its toys.

I agree, the quest armor from Goru'kar Mesa (when you get TSS) you can wear at lvl 45 is actually very good. The arms, bracers, gloves and legs would all be an upgrade (some more than others). The xp in the TSS zones is also actually very good (at least I noticed it was in Mesa). Almost hotzone good. Now you'll have to do all the other parts (including BP and boots which you don't need) before he will give you the arms quest. That's ok because the mobs you kill can drtop some good selling vendor trash, not to mention quality bear and wolf pelts and spider/spiderling silks you can sell in bazaar or use for your own. I've made as much as 1k just on vendor trash alone in one evening of doing the quests for my Beastlord and Pally.

Definately work on switching out any items that don't have HP on them. I've found that (especially with the economy on our server - I'm on Maelin too) it gets easier and cheaper to buy gear the closer you get to 60. Twink gear is so rediculously expensive so once you get to the point where the reduced stats of rec 60 gear is still a good amount (like your Bazu BP), it becomes easier. Earring of Holy Fervor is a fairly nice ear slot item that seems to be fairly cheap and often there are a lot of them for sale.

Also might as well get the new hotzone aug from Seb and Grieg's while you are at it. The Seb one is 8ac 30hp at full level and while the Grieg's one has no HP, 40mana/End isn't bad thing to fill a slot with until you get something better. Might have to level a bit more before you go to griegs depending on who you are with.

The GM DoN smithing with augs IS very nice, but very expensive and I've noticed on Maelin server Barb shaman GM armor is hard to come by. Usually at most 2-4 pieces of GM armor for sale... and often half of them are bracers.

/agree Boleslav. Ended up having to commission Kilg's bp, could never find a troll bp in the 'zar and I'm not a TSer.
