Not sure I really want to do this, but I need coins. This is the ONLY one completed, it was completed during the opener and I traded stuff for for it about a year ago. Head, 1.2 ac plus wis, SW 2x40 Forged.

Min bid is 20 mil, I would consider a restring plus coins. I reserve thr ight to sell online at any time or not to sell, or to close at any time. Post here.

Only head ac with 1.2ac and wiz. Plus no-one runs CoP, so the chances of this being forged unless someone decides to make a concerted effort are low. Of course that may mean no-one wants it!

I co-own these vaults with a more established player, he set the price as a minimum, maybe he wants to make sure it's not sold :)

I gather he paid about that for it, which is probably why he set the price there.

I'm pretty sure there are some .4 +1wiz bracelets you can pop from a solo mob.

Actually you are wrong, the only .4 plus 4 bracelet is the stone shackled forge, which is also pretty hard, although there are quite a few complete.

That, however, is beside the point as this is a helmet. The next best head EQ with wis, including quest and drachma EQ, is the Luminescent Helm which is also a forge and is only 0.8 ac.

This is the only 1.2 ac wis head item in game, and only one has ever been forged that I am aware of, this one.

And BTW, consider this list to get perspective. Remove all quest, personal quest, weekly, triple 40 and temp EQ, and here is a list of EQ that has armor plus wis. This basically leaves you with a light, choosing the girdle as a triple 40 item, and the helm and stone-shackled forges if you want extra wiz from AC and no penalty. There is very little EQ with any ac and wis. Consider then the number of classos that have wis as their 5th or 4th stat.

Head - Luminescent Helm Forge 0.8 +1wis + 15 mana
Head - Helm of the Benevolent Father Forge 1.2 +1 wis
Neck – Six Demon Bag, Beads of Force 0.4 plus 1 wis
Sleeves – no ac + wis
Wrist Stone Encased Shackle Forge, .4 plus 1 wis
Hands – Shattered Bone Gauntlets 0.2 plus 1 wis
Finger – Incandescent Ring, 0.1 plus 1 wis
Body - Crafted Durs-Hide Shirt, 1.2 – con + wis
About Body – no ac with wis
Shield – 0.7 ac plus 1 wis
Waist – Snakeskin Belt, 0.2 plus 1 wis
Legs – Multilayered Skirt 0.2 plus 1 wis
Feet – no ac with wis
Low – no ac with wis

It isn't the only one forged, though my guess is there's less than 5.

anyone who needs wis bad due to it being low in their stat-order generally doesnt need AC at the same time they need wis...
And anyone who would want AC and wis at the same time probably already has a high natural wis.

But that is, of course, just my personal feeling....

And I must say I have never had a need to use it. But hey, if it stays in the vault there are other ways to get coins. I just hate running coin mobs.
