windy boots ?

I've started to level a windy for the first time.

He's just a pvm project so i guess any old crap will do but im still a bit curious what ppl would recommend.

Gear setup at lv 70ish

Jalals

Hoto

Sprit

Enigma

thundergods

Frostburns

Rare elemental resist life mana ammulet

Ravenfrost

Bartuks

And

inferno strides

Most of the things i've put on him was stuff i collected when he was leveld enough to get it and i had the runes for a nigma lying around.

i guess resists will be better when i put a torch on him

now they are 50ish with poison maxed

so to my main question should i try to craft some decent caster boots or just go for some tri resist rares to clear up inventory space from resist charms.

what do you ppl use ?|||I'd recommend doffing the Frosties in favor of either Magefists or Trang gloves, and picking up a FCR ring. That alone will get you the 99% FCR breakpoint, and be plenty for PvM. Your resists shouldn't be too bad between Jalal's, HotO, and Spirit, other than perhaps fire. Also, make sure you have 99% FHR, as that's the standard. You can get by with the 63% one that you have now, but the next one up is only 14% away (30% Jalal's, 55% Spirit). I'd either snag a GC and an SC, or just Shael the Jalal's.

If you can afford to spare an Um, throw that in the Jalal's, and snag an Ele/FHR and random 5% FHR sc. Ele/FHR are a LOT cheaper usually than Ele/Vita's, and more damage is always good. Once you're happy with your resists (which really, poison is my only concern on mine, as Cyclone will negate anything PvM can throw at you regardless of maxed or not resists), focus on either more life or more MF.

Another option, tying back to the boot question, would be Sandstorm Treks, and since you're most likely already statted, any old pair will do. Heck, get crap stats with maxed poison resist That frees up Jalal's for an Um, hits the BP for FHR without using charms, and also adds a little non-BO-able life from the +Vit.|||I haven't been checking his breakpoints etc yet i thought i'd be doing that when he was more or less done in maybe 15 levels or so.

And at that point id make up my mind on max block vs vita and respec him statwise with the gear i intend to use.

I'll probably tweak the jewellery to get 11fps castings at that point.

at that point i probably change out the belt for an arcanids mesh as well.

Its still the boots part that leaves me clueless, I should probably start crafting some caster boots to see if anything intresting pops up.|||I'd like to recommend Aldur's Advance as boots.|||Quote:

seconded. best part of the set.|||yeah it has a lot of nice mods.

Is the life BO�able btw ?

then again i dont know if i will be able to take advantedge of the high fire resist unless i end up fighting under conviction aura.|||Quote:

the life is BO-able.

i find it offsets the lack of fire res from spirit.|||Indeed, also add that 30-40 res from HotO and jalal's, you already have, what, 100+ res?|||resists are atm 50-60ish and max poison and thats without torch or anni.

its with some invent space used by resist charms tho|||Windy druid mainly use sandstorm treks for the str/life/fhr bonus. Mainly the fhr and str bonus is the reason why windy's use treks in the first place.
