as a caster, not charisma dependant, only needing intel and mana ... i would not bid, nor encourage any of my other wizards to bid on this item. By the time your guild is capable of NToV, your intel should be maxxed at 255 ... you want mana on the fingers ... or mage focus items =) ... 35 mana is nice, but i get more benifit from Shadel bandit and Band of eternal flame ... it just doesnt have enough of the stat that most casters need on it ... by this point in the game, you can get far better mana on a ring for much much much less effort ... this should go to tank types, hybrids before chanters, chanters before warriors, warriors before monks/rogues ... priests next ... casters last ... yes its got some great resists on it, but Vel Diamond has better ... and with Enlightentment/KEI you can sac some intel and still be maxxed. the other stats just dont really matter much. but this is just my opinion ... you do what your guild feels is best for them ... as for me ... i will do what i think is best for my wizards
