great for a cleric shaman and druid but then again druids are so deprived i mean able to solo from 14-55 isnt enough they must claim andything that adds more than 4wisdom as theres and make it so other wisdom casters cant lotto on items

Fact is druids don't get anything that compares to this. It has 10wis and 40 mana (I think that's the highest on head gear we get) and 20 ac (you'll never see another piece of druid headgear with that much) 40hp which we desperately need (lets face it, 1280hp at level 60 isn't a whole lot seeing as how a lvl 35 warrior has more), and it has 15 sv cold, which, lets face it, is essential for dungeoning in Velious. THIS IS DRUID FIRST in my opinion because any other class that could POSSIBLY make use of it (i.e. Shaman, Cleric, Paladin, Ranger [well maybe not rangers]) get MUCH better range of gear for the head slot.

I know i sound like a ranting dr00d d00d, but if you think about it...it makes sense.

Actually druids can solo from 1-60 without too much hassle... that's part of the class.

The point is that druids are very limited in what wisdom items they can use, leather only (or specific magic items and ALL/ALL stuff).

Shaman get Leather/Chain/some other metal armor.
Clerics get Leather/Chain/Plate and basically anything they like.

Try to look at it from a druids point of view... any time they see an item with more than 10 wisdom, it's usually not druid usable... reaching 200 wisdom is a pain, they have to sacrifice resist/ac gear everywhere, and fight off every other class that wants the item since most of the good wisdom stuff druids can use is either ALL/ALL, or usable by Shaman/Cleric also.

Here is the thing guys yes druids suffer for gear but as a druid and a cleric both let me tell you that it is much more dificult to dress a cleric then a druid. Druids need Wis and svALL. While Clerics need both of those plus AC STR AGI DEX.

When I solo, druid gets hit, druid dies so AC, AGI are not a concern, druid hits and that means druid is being hit = druid dies, so DEX, STR are not a concern.

When I solo, cleric gets in it's face and beats the tar out of it while she blasts it. So she gets hit, AC, AGI a must. She hits so STR, DEX a must.

Heh...it is MUCH harder for a shaman to get 200 wisdom than for a druid to. If you think otherwise, you dont know anything about shaman equiptment. It is NOT hard to get a druid to 200 wisdom, for one reason, you start with a considerable amount of wisdom more than shamans do. This is a GREAT item for shamans,druids,or clerics. Any one of the 3 could benefit equally.

Sure, if you go for one of the cookie cutter dime a friggin dozen wood elf/halfling druids. Try playing a human druid sometime and then see how easy it is to get to 200 WIS. Barbarians start with about the same base wisdom (-5 points) but they get a lot more strength to balance that, plus they can wear the chain/plate stuff. Trust me, having a lvl 46 human druid I'm still right arounf 175ish or so.

Are you aware that it was a level 59 human druid that won the druid best of the best on the Torvonnilous server? Beating a 60 wood elf in the first round even. So think before you post.

wis doesn't mean much in a druid botb. it's all about gear and resists. also, i can get my wis to around 300 if i want, so no 59 druid should not have max wis, even if they didn't put any points into it.

with full resist gear on, i still have around 220-230 wis, so it shouldn't be an issue.

what rocks about this headpiece is amazing ac, resist and mana (i get beat on all the time as the designated snarer and debuffer. i don't know about you, but i don't like getting hit for max damage because i have low ac.

soon i'll hit around 1k AC, and already i notice a big difference of how fast my HPs drop compared to other druids in the 700-800 AC range.

i'm certainly not saying this is a druid helm only by any means. it would be extremely nice for quite a few classes. just saying that it would be useful to a druid. =)

HUMAN DRUIDS ROCK!!!! Actually I just hit 194 wis in my 39th druid. I picked human cause I wanted a challange, and boy is it ever. My other stats suck due to the heavy wis items, which is a trade off I can handle.

There are 2 ways to look at the stat issue...

Are you a power gamer(slacker) or casual(real life)...

Will U be able to goto the planes and get planer armor(have 8 hours to kill at one setting- *** hurts)....

If U are a power-gamer and can goto the planes dont worry about your starting stats cause they will change when U really start playing this game post 50:) My friend who has a DE mage put all his stats into int, now that he is 55 and has 240 int with all his planer gear he wishes that he would have done things differently when he started. Another thing is that my main is a HUMAN necro, who to this day has only 184 int at lvl 52 and has never been to the planes, has managed to survive with out hitting 200 int. Bottom line U dont need 200 anything ...its just to brag to your friends.

Heck anyone can get to lvl 46 in no time, IF U have have the time.

The game used to be about getting to 50 ...now its about getting to 50 so U can goto the cool places and get the sweet loot... Great game :)

"that he is 55 and has 240 int with all his planer gear he wishes that he would have done things differently when he started."

because those 25 points would make a huge difference at level 55?

Agreed, this is about as good as it gets for a Druid, though I really don't think that other wis-based classes should be excluded from lottoing on it just because of that fact, unless they don't plan on using it because they already have or can readily get better.

Oh, and a Human's wisdom is a whole 5 points lower than a wood elf's (and halfling's.) The difference is marginal at best (as opposed to a Half-elf, who for some reason have a wis 20 points under a Wood elf and 15 below a human's.) The reason to play a wood elf druid are the little extras: foraging at level 1, hide, better dex, and much better agility. The trade off is lower strength and stamina, which is generally speaking well worth it. But as far as the "core" druid abilities go, humans, wood elves, and halflings are pretty close.

But really, the only excuse for your "challenging" wisdom is your equipment. ;) Its not *that* easy to get to a 200, my level 40 (yes, Wood Elf) has a 190, and that's with at least 2 points of wisdom on every piece but the belt. If my character was a human, I'd have a 185. :)

Ummm... you play a human druid? If you are whining about not being able to get 200 wis with your HUMAN druid you should have sacraficed the balanced stats of a human char. for the higher wis of a half-elf or a wood-elf. When I created my DE magi I took the lower int than High elves and eurdites for the agi. So if you are so concerned about not having 200+ wis you should have done a better job creating your char. :)

Umm, Dark Elves actually have higher int than High Elves.
