new melding system. more casual? no thanks!

A lightning wand +1 with +100 INT is STILL not better than the relic (at least in 1.0) due to caps.

Sure, it makes reaching the cap easier with other gear, but the other benefits to the Stardust rod blow it out of the water.



Not only that, but Stardust rod has a higher cap.

Still, +100 INT is pretty damn awesome. That's easily best melded item I've ever heard of.
(You get a SS of it?)

a 100+int lightning brand is definitely better than the stardust rod. My lightning brand +1 has 45int on it, switching from that to the stardust rod only gives me

+3 attack magic pot ( cos of also loosing aubriest allegory)
mag crit rate +35
conserve mp 50
20 enfeebling mag pot
more flare dot

nd i lose 12 lightning mag pot.

If i was losing 55 int by switching to the stardust rod. It stash that shit in the retainer and it'd never see the light of day.

edit: incase the reasons werent obvious enuf. the 55 int would give u enuf amp to replace the 3 with rod and more. the mag crit rate isnt all that but if u really wanted it just use milita ringbands nd duckbills. i dont get the what the conserve does nd the enfeebling mag pot and flare dot are pretty much useless since for flare u mostly rely on the initial impact rather than the dot.
