Best enchant for bootsFollow

#1 Dec 08 2007 at 3:34 PM Rating: Decent
Hi there, I was wondering what you guys think the best enchant for feet would be for a mage who is looking to start 25 mans/ZA soon. 12 stam or boar's speed? I would have thought 12 stam but a friend of mine said that the speed boost was worth losing 3 stam as it will help in encounters that require movement. Or is there a better chant that I'm not aware of? Anyways, I just picked up the pattern for the boots of blasting and wanted to put the best enchant on as possible. On another note, are those boots really as sweet as I think they are? I've never been any farther then Kara, but from what I've looked up I can't seem to find much better up until SSC or The Eye(which is where I believe the pattern drops, correct me if I'm wrong there). Just seems like abit of a steal for the 800g I spent on AH and I was thinking that maybe I missed something. Anyway, any tips here would be great.

If you ever PvP at all, (read: even fighting off another player out in the world) then get the speed.

Most high end raids require a solid amount of HP these days, as well as increased movement. Makes it easier to have the speed and a stam enchant on them. More room to make mistakes is always a plus.

The boots are great. The only issue is that you won't be able to make them until you are raiding SSC/The Eye because if they are anything like the Belt of Blasting it requirs two Nether Vortex's (drops off of trash in the Tier5 Instances).

I would recommend either getting Vitality (mana/hp regen, albiet small) or Boar's speed. I had vitality and it didn't give me enough of a boost imo so I would probably go Boar's speed for the fights that requite a bit of movement.

Thanks for the help, I think I'm gonig to go with boar's speed.

As far as the boots go, I had thought awhile ago that they required a primal vortex to create but nope, 2 primal nethers, 4 spellcloth and 4 shadoweave. The belt does need the vortex though(in addition to that pattern being BOP). Perhaps this was a recent change, I'm not sure.

For raids, I'm pretty partial to Vitality, myself. For PvP and solo PvE, I like me some Boar's Speed. But otherwise, vitality.

Vitality is also good for boots while leveling because the mats are so cheap. Save the boar's speed enchant for an engame enchant.
