Having been out of game for close to 2 years, I have noticed that much has changed. In going through my accounts, I also noticed that none of my toons ( according toi what I am told) are Uber (or whatever thje correct term is). They were in fact fairly uber when i left the game sometime just before Omens came out.
What I need to know what it is that makes gear..the uberest or best. People say that the DoDH gear is great, That time gear is greta and so on. Why is this so?
As an example..when a friend and myself went back into game for the free 3 weeks or so, my friend was using a Wurmy that I had on my SK for eons. Everyone told him that it sucked, though we felt the dmg was good. And us, being "old school", him more so than myself, we couldnt quite understand why people were saying it was a crappy weapon... We had always comr to believe that it was all about the dmg...we were told stats mattered so much more...
Incidently, my wizard is 58, and at 58 he has an int of 250 unbuffed. I was also told that nowadays that didnt matter so much now. I was even more coinfused then, seeing as how a wizzies int is his power and thats all he has..so the more int the more mana... Is that true still or did the rules change on it.
Any insight on this would be most appreciated. I am returning soon and from the sounds of it, the toons will be in need of upgrades....
