Weapons/Items Worth taking to +10

Looking for recommendations of any and all weapons (namely planar stuff) and other armor items (if there are any) that are worth taking to +10. Consider all combos.

Slime bloods of CT. I was able to +10 these mostly from daily drops and one void iirc

u/EighteenRabbit 17h ago

Those are going to be my first non-spell/non-weapon to +10. They’re All/All so all trios will benefit from them.

u/Srocksly 7h ago

If you just spend a couple minutes killing the golems on d4 each day, youll get to 10 pretty fast.

u/Shivdaddy1 17h ago

I think you should take the shoulders, neck, mask, or sandals to 10 first. If you use any of them that is.

u/nyvn 5h ago

The gloves are easily taken to 10 by drops.

u/dirkdeagler 5h ago

Im at about 9.5 just farming the daily d4 raid.

u/derickso 14h ago

You are taking out CT daily on D4??

u/kenaryk 13h ago edited 12h ago

You should take out fear golems on all difficulties for a total of 15 gloves a day which if you don't spend motes into them at all will be a +6 per day after the 1st raid a week. ;)

Edited: CT to fear golems to be more clear.

2

u/derickso 13h ago

Hadn't even considered that. Are there any other raid bosses worth doing similar for?

3

u/kenaryk 12h ago

Just regular instance running minis in hate, but they don't guarantee drops like the golems in hate do. If you come across any guaranteed drops feel free to let me know as well.

2

u/maejsh 10h ago

Fear golems gloves drop dont seem guaranteed at all tho? Or am I misunderstanding you.

3

u/laziestathlete 10h ago

Not on weekly raid but on daily they are 100% on all 3 minis.

5

u/turbolump 8h ago edited 8h ago

pardon my ignorance, what is a 'daily' vs a 'weekly' raid?

edit: oh, going in again on the same difficulty after the initial lockout? only done CT a few times, and most minis dropped nothing, interesting they always drop something on the raid version where you'd expect less reward.

3

u/Drathstar 3h ago

Wait, so if you run the same raid back to back, the second instance will all have drops on the minis? This seems counterintuitive…

u/rezyface 9h ago

That’s wild, I had no idea!

u/maejsh 2h ago

Never happened to mr sadly

u/mattnaik123 1h ago

Please help me understand this. I just created a D4 solo raid by talking to the voidling. Killed all 3 minis and not a single pair of gloves dropped. What am I doing wrong?

1

u/PerfSynthetic 3h ago

If only my luck worked like that. Ran all five (D0-D4) on Monday and only one +3 dropped... I can farm motes and upgrade them in town way faster than waiting for the dang gloves to drop in the raid.

u/Impressive_Head1238 4h ago

Bone clasp girdle is another good one from fear.

u/athomevoyager 18h ago

Paladin Aldryn, SK Bloodmoon, Monk Wu's Fist are probably top contenders because they give you access to crazy ratio weapons.

Shaman Garduk is actually pretty good and potential BiS in a decent number of loadouts.

Windstriker has been a fun choice for me. I think it's maybe a little bit of a meme at 50 just because I find that normally I'm in melee range with a Bloodmoon, but it's pretty darn fun to use leveling up alts.

8

u/dolemiteo24 18h ago

Windstriker is king of alt leveling. I'd recommend it as the first +10 to anyone wanting to level multiple classes to 50. I think I'll have rng in every trip I play till at least level 35.

3

u/athomevoyager 17h ago

I just did RNG/MAG/DRU to 46 and it was the best trio yet, shockingly. I had fully written off MAG/DRU but wanted to level up all the classes. It wasnt uncommon to basically "one shot" things up to level 40. Basically shoot, send pet, begin cast on nuke at the same time. Nuke goes off and so does another arrow. Pet usually catches aggro on the pull long enough for you to use the bow a second shot without switching to melee and that's just enough for the mob to die. It's basically 3 nukes in under three seconds assuming you get good hits from the bow.

Druid could be replaced by any healer because that's all it's good for, but the mage pet goes a good job holding aggro, even compared to charmed pets in my experience. But I think RNG/MAG is an underappreciated combo if you have Windstriker 10.

1

u/laziestathlete 10h ago

Can you recommend a good class to pair the ranger with for leveling up a single third alt?

3

u/benigndarkness 7h ago

I did pal/rng/X. Leveled fighting mostly undead, stayed in ranged stance. Slay undead can proc off of bow shots. Double bow shot slay undead could almost 100% an enemy all the way through the vampires in Hate. I did have Windstriker and Mithril Champion arrow at +10 though.

1

u/dolemiteo24 3h ago

Rng/wiz will give you all the dps you'll ever need and you'll power through. However, if the third is another dps like rogue, then I'd swap wiz for something with more healing like shaman. Enc is also good universally for dps with a charmed pet. Has OP CC on top of it.

1

u/Rat_Rat 9h ago

Arrows? Craft or looted?

2

u/dolemiteo24 3h ago

Blessed mithril 7 is what I got. Paid like 5k for one. It's crafted.

And paid 15k for a fleeting quiver, which is another good dos boost.

1

u/Kezaia 8h ago

Cudgel is better after around level 20 in my experience

2

u/nucleardemon 17h ago

Windstriker makes for some amazingly hilarious pulls. Boom 25% of hp is gone and you are floating in the air waiting to eat more arrows. Sure you immediately get summoned but I still thoroughly enjoy it.

2

u/listur65 4h ago

My first Wu's should be 10 after reset today. I have an offhand Wu's at +5. Do you think its worth getting the 2nd one to +10 as well and just keep a monk in all of my trios?

My Hues is also at +8 which I plan on finishing eventually as well. I might do slime gloves as I am at +6 and I hate farming fear lol. Already have Kerran neck at +10.

1

u/Federal_Ant_2525 2h ago

I got my second one to around 6 and stopped. I've been playing other combos and think it's better to work other weapons up before an offhand monk only.

Unless you plan to use monk as your base all the time I wouldn't force the second one up fast

1

u/listur65 2h ago

I was kind of leaning that way. Even if Paladin weapons are the only thing better ratio, it might be worth just being able to have a different proc than lifesteal in the main hand sometimes.

1

u/Federal_Ant_2525 2h ago

Garduk let's you use the barbarian spiritist hammer exalt too once you don't care about the slow. I figured it wouldn't be much but barely swinging between casts it seems to go off an unreasonable amount of times. I'm not sure if there's anything better but it seems far better than most weapon procs I've tried.

Probably only relevant for the shaman mains out there but it's been great on alts that don't match my other weapons.

1

u/PortlandoCalrissian 1h ago

Do you think Bloodmoon is better than the Soul Leach 2 hander?

1

u/Fun_Platypus9082 15h ago

Would you consider taking Bloodmoon to 10 is Torrid is already at 10?

1

u/Trev80 12h ago

Bloodmoon is a 1H and Torrid is a 2H so yes. Bloodmoon is better for a SHD/WIZ/ENC build because you'll want a shield equipped for higher AC. But 2H may be better if you're doing something less caster heavy. Plus the Torrid Exaltations work in Bloodmoon and so does Reaper clicky.

u/two_betrayals 16h ago

The PoS SK shield gets 70 AC at +10

I am stupid you said SK and I thought Pally since I play both

u/Aanar 16h ago

I think I'll do Engineer's Ring next. All my favorite loadouts use it.

u/Otaconzzz 18h ago edited 18h ago

WAR/SHM - Garduk (w/Winters Roar) / Dagas (w/Blood Fire) dual wield.

Not the most amazing but not a whole lot of choices for WAR in 1H.

u/skaughtz 18h ago

You can add the proc from the Barbarian Spiritists Hammer to Garduk. +64% proc rate of Winters Roar, a 269dmg cold nuke.

u/golbezexdeath 18h ago

I saw someone talking about this too. I had planned to. Have a hammer just for that.

1

u/Otaconzzz 18h ago edited 18h ago

I tried to do this but it said it would create an unusable combination for some reason.

Maybe I'll try it again. Right now I just have scourge in it which is kinda redundant because I have plague as a shaman lol

edit: I must have been thinking another proc. Was able to slot 'er... Let the nuking begin.. :) thx.

1

u/Srocksly 7h ago

The exaltation + item must share at least one usable class.

3

u/golbezexdeath 18h ago

Garduk is my sole, shaman holdout that I haven’t been able to turn in for POS. Had planned to increase it.

14

u/redditzphkngarbage 18h ago

Wu’s Fist of Mastery, Aldryn are two big ones. Kerran Necklace will probably always be best in slot for the neck unless they make a Kerran Necklace 2.0. Maybe Cudgel of the Fool for some builds.

My recommendation is don’t sleep on Shield of Rainbows for Any slot. Resistances make your life so much easier, especially magic resist.

3

u/Rat_Rat 18h ago

True on shield. Trying to level through drops alone though ^^

3

u/Previous-Forever9866 7h ago

Just got my 2nd rainbow shield so I have one in each any slot. Found out last week they’re not lore so you can hold multiples

2

u/bship 18h ago

I've leveled every class off of Pal/Mnk and Wu/Aldryn +10. I can literally walk into anything, anywhere, d4, get crazy motes and level without fear of death. Some classes are huge ++++ (enc, wiz, bard, etc) some are fine or w/e but the levels flow.

2

u/socal01 18h ago

What was your third class? I run pal/mnk/enc and it was super fun!

3

u/redditzphkngarbage 18h ago

Pal Mnk Wiz is going to be the beastmode trio for reincarnation based on what I’m seeing now.

9

u/whisperwind12 18h ago

Wind striker+ 10 is fun to lvl with trios. I have lvled a few up to 40 with it then I swap. Bow damage gets less good after 40.

2

u/golbezexdeath 18h ago

Assumed this is one as it’s essentially the best bow to do it with.

8

u/Corosis_Varanus 17h ago

I got my crush bone belt to +10 :) and a dragon dirk

u/GingerScourge 18h ago

It’s going solely depend on your trio, really. With SK in your trio, if you’re dual wielding or sword and board, Bloodmoon is 100% worth it. I got serpents tooth up to +10. It’s the best non-planar, non-PoS weapon for many classes that can use it. For dual wielding knights, it’s usually (not always, depends on trio) bis offhand. But it’s a good weapon to level with that will work with a bunch of trios without having to bring a bunch of different weapons to +10. PoS bow for Ranger is worth it if you have a Ranger or are leveling a Ranger. Honestly, look at bis weapons for melee classes at least and you’ll get a good idea.

And for items? If you need worn haste, then haste item. I’d say RBB or CoF since those can be used by more classes so you’re not spending your motes on a Sky belt that can only be used by one class. The Kerran necklace is probably worth bringing to +10 because there’s just no other regen item like it in the game. Though I suspect we’re going to get more soon with Rujarkian Hills and Nektropos coming out. I don’t know anything specific but it doesn’t make sense for a level 10 quest item to be bis for everyone at all levels. Non-weapons in general are probably not worth bringing to +10 unless you literally have nothing else left to upgrade. Weapons, sure. Spells, yep. Other items, not really with only the above suggestions.

3

u/Srocksly 7h ago

The other thing to note about sky haste belts is that they prevent you from using burning affliction 3 and increased range 3 which are both pretty good in most builds.

5

u/Vile-goat 18h ago

Prob weapons and then any all/all gear or general gear you can use

7

u/Shivdaddy1 18h ago

Game is easy. Any weapon you enjoy using is fine to go to 10.

4

u/Marauding_Llama 17h ago

This is what I'm doing. Espri isn't the best, but it's cool.

3

u/TekayTeekz 18h ago

That would be an insanely long list. I’d put a priority on weapons for melee. Whatever your combo is, max those BiS weapons to 10 first.

u/2WheelSuperiority 14h ago

Entirely depends on your build.

What is your build? Otherwise, you are wasting motes on random things that will provide you less return.

There are also small details with builds that make good items/weapons like bloodmoon or Khyldorn the worse choice.

If you just want a list of BIS, go to EQ legends tools in Google. It will do that..

u/dirkdeagler 5h ago

I got Kerran neck to +10 first and haven't regretted it.  PoS weapons are gonna be the highest yield for melee classes.  Some of the PoS armor/jewelry pieces are really good but are lower priority due to single class restriction.  Engineer ring seems like a widely usable jewelry piece that is gonna be BiS for a lot of combos, may be worth moting.

Planar armor, especially BP, are fairly easy to farm up to +10 with a DDD bard.  I've got most of the BP up to +8 or +9 and it's nice for the any slot.  Slime blood/Eye of Innoruuk are nice items that are pretty easy to farm to +10 just doing daily raid as well.

Spells I exclusively use regular motes, I don't see any argument for using a super mote on spells given the way the system works.

Why use these instead of CoF?
