Wands Uber on Test Server

Do you have any idea what the caster end game problem is like?  I get a new dagger in UBRS as my Rogue ... I get at least a 20% increase in my DPS.  Any caster gets a new *blank* in the same place ... "ooh, 50 more mana!".  It's not even close to comparable.  Do +heal/damage items help?  Yes, but the "best" gear doesn't have that, so you're stuck with greens that don't add to stats at all.

Being "ganked" isn't fair when you're both 60 and have the "best" gear for your respective classes.

He raised a few semi-valid itemization issues and then swiftly disintegrated into "paladins have it easy."

I'm passing on that particular discussion, now, when even the mod is remarkably biased. I'm never going to change anyone's mind about it, and I'm not going to waste my time with further attempts. All I can say is- play a paladin. Try it out. If nothing else, you'll learn how to beat 'em, easier.


As to the items- while endgame itemization does raise some eyebrows, how about we clarify what exactly we mean by "endgame." You say that, I see MC and other raid events- what you seem to mean is the common level 60 instances.
