Hello there,
I'm a level 62 ( almost 63! ) Elvaan rdm, if you recall me ^^

I decided its time for a major upgrade, and picked up the following items to buy:

Royal Knight's Belt
Def: 5 STR: 2 DEX: 2 AGI: 2 INT: 2 MND: 2 CHR: 2

Morion Tathlum
MP: 3 INT: 1

Red Cape +1
Def: 5 INT: 3 MND: 3

Ebony Wand +1
INT: 7 MND: 7

Wood Gauntlets
Def: 11 HP: -30 MP: 55 DEX: 4 VIT: -3 INT: 4


Light Staff
STR: 1 DEX: 1 VIT: 1 AGI: 1 INT: 1 MND: 1 CHR: 1 Vs. Dark: 15
Additional Effect: Light Damage, Enhances Cure Effect: 10%

Now, the problem is, my funds are limited, and won't be enough to get everything ( at the same time, i WILL have em all eventually - but not soon enough ).

Now, here's what i have on for the slots mentioned above:

Belt: Friar's rope
Hands: Magna gauntlets
Back: Redcape
Wand: Ebony wand

To ease my decision, i grouped the items in two groups:


1) Wood gauntlets ( would add 31mp 3int 2dex to my current setup)
2) RK Belt, Ebony +1, Redcape +1, Light staff and Morion Tathlum. ( Would add -7mp +4mnd +5int )

So, the question basically ( again. I'm sorry ^^ ) is:

31mp 3int 2dex VS -7mp +4mnd +5int.

Consider that i'm an elvaan with 569 mp without food and in PT gear!

Light staff, now, i don't heal enough to justify it ( sub blm ), but i guess it will help. Opinions?

Thank you for your time ^^

I take it you are not from San d'Oria?

If you are, just use your CP to get the RK Belt.

Get a Dark Staff before getting the Light staff. +10 MP recovered while healing comes in really handy. then go for the gloves.
