Ok, let me mention something here... I've heard alot of people drone on and on about how ac is more important than stat buffs. For example the Artic Wyvern Mask has 5 wis (some other very nice buffs) and some ac... BUT! The higher the lvl the less 4 or 5 ac is going to make a difference and the more 4 or 5 extra wisdom is. Casters, who I'm assuming would get the most use out of this cause a tank would get almost no benifit from the wisdom, shouldn't be tanking nor should they be on the front lines in a group. Is 5 ac going to help more than the extra mana that lets you fear or charm or even gate? I'll let you decide ;-)
Personally I'm very happy with my veil and I wouldn't take a few ac over the extra mana. Then again I'm a shaman... and though we can buff ac, hit points, and about everything else, we can't just whip up a replacement for some extra mana :-)
(Wilil Ironbear; currently 35 shaman and growing on Burtoxx)
This is a great druid item, a good cleric item and a not so hot shaman item. Malise, slow, disempower, heals, etc. all draw good chunks of aggro. If you use 3 or 4 of these in a fight, there's a VERY good chance you're going to take some shots. Having a good AC will help you live until the tank taunts the mob off you and shaman do have a way to whip up extra mana ... it's called cannibalize and you can't canni hps that a mobs beats out of you.
As for soloing, you wouldn't believe how much longer I (+ my pets) last using my Imbued Northman Mask (and some other low wis/high ac gear) and tanking for Fido.

I would think this would be better for rangers and paladins becasue it gives wisdom and strength not intelligence. I would think that the wisdom this item gives would be wasted on a Shadow Knight. But the strength would be a big help.
