@ Cheeya ... I had a spiel to spout, but like Ryanrules stated... price is in the eye of the beholder, yet we have differences... to me... Ryan overprices his items... YET again, he is pricing to the old days... just like you posting in my PC thread on the +38 Intelligence level 55 PADDED robe ... you want more Int at lower level robes that yield LESS defense just for DPS (this is correct)... however... I think as a Hardcore solo'er, and survival is paramount... so if I had (actually have 40 intelligence robe) at level 35 & 40... I would rather use the +38 Int Padded Robe because I can sustain more damage and cast more often in comparison to the other robes where I have to spend more time in town to regen even with regen gear. ... Perspective (perception) and interpretation.

@ legirotto ... yup, I sell low, others sell high... but as we ALL can state... Hardcore prices are NOW lower than Softcore pricing range compared to the old days.

Idk if the extra defense is really that big of a deal? I’ve been using a lvl 30 Intel robe to 81 for the last year on HC and have had no issues. Almost all solo climbs too.

This made me irl

Well, when you take +2 int difference to the defense of the robe, there is a difference, especially normal level 35/40 robe with 40 int vs a level 55 padded with 38 int.

I notice the difference using a level 40 Scale with +47 str vs a level 45 Plate with +38 int with my melee/healer build... and I need to shrine a shit load more using the level 40 scale (for damage) up to 73 & 75.

But again, I chose more int for healing vs the +47 str and 2x% HM of a level 40 scale. So +2 Int in my opinion is kind of pointless... but then again... if the 40 int was on a level 50 padded robe, I would consider it more useful depending on the side mods.

Here is a weird off caster chain as an example:

Angelic diamond chain mail
Level Req: 40
Physical Defense: 33 to 82
Magical Defense: 0 to 25
+11 Intelligence
+1% Critical Flux
+2% Power Shot
+21% Ice Mastery

Now... it is only +11 Intelligence, but for an Ice Caster, it has an extra 21%, not only that, it also has 21% Ice Resistance. And yes, if this armor had MORE intelligence it would be even better right.

Is the 21% Ice Mastery better than +21 Intelligence for damage output? ... now the added +11 Intelligence gives more damage... but... (a lot of buts aye) the +21% Ice Mastery gives you defense vs Ice casting monsters.

Choices... the armor I posted is roughly 32% Ice casting damage and 21% Ice Resistant. Again... speculation... the Crit Flux is helpful for both defense.

Again... perception and interpretation... I have a +38 int chain with +16 Vita being level 45... and 0 EE, but is better than the armor I posted.
