I can’t afford a coh or enigma so what’s the next best thing? Vipermage, enlightenment with the plus 2, fortitude? I mainly do mf and help run friends threw.

viper/tal armor

The tal armor doesn’t do any res tho right?

ormus is best

Depends on your budget I suppose, a nice Vmagi is always good. If you're MFing you'd probably want to squeeze in Tal's 3P for a nice kit.

Vmagi
Tals
Skullders
Smoke

Avoid enlightenment
