Hello all,
First "real post", I was wondering if some of you could give me some advise on upgrades in equipment. What I am looking for are things I can quest for, or that drop off of mobs. I have about 1900pp and I am saving up to get the components for an Earring of the Solstice. I can make about 480pp per day (2 hour sessions) to save for new equipment. Anyway, suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
My magelo should be in my signature and is up to date.

I also posted this in the Druid forum, but noone has posted in that forum for a week or more sooo...

Unfortunately I am almost a pure soloer, I enjoy hunting at my own pace for now. Also, I do not have DoDH yet, I only have the expansions up to GoD. Not sure what expansion is required for MMs.

DoN cultural armor might be a good route for you to follow, if you're any good at tailoring. You're about the right level to start on the Expert's gear, required level 35, recommended level 40.

If not, in a few levels, you might be able to take the Elysians in Maiden's Eye. Those drop some nice DRU-only gear.

Same advise I would give, but check in the Bazaar first. I've seen alot of people using expert's armor for skill-ups lately and selling it in the bazaar for really low prices. It can save you alot of time doing the quests needed to make it yourself. If you're a halfling, the armor is called "Longstrider", I believe. Not sure on the names of the racial armor for the other druid races.

You'll also have to either make or buy in the bazaar the type 11 augments to put in it to make it. As a Karana worshipper, you'll want to look for the type 11 augments called "of the Storm", as in expert's helm symbol of the Storm or expert's glove symbol of the Storm.

You can fill the other two augment slots on each piece if armor with either LDoN augment or go to Natimibi and hunt the souls that drop hp and mana augs. Once you get to 40ish level, DoN augs can be purchased with crystals and I don't think you need to have the DoN expansion to buy that gear but you would have to purchase the crystals from other players (I could be wrong about that last part).

2 items you might want to quest:

Fine Cut, Diamond Inlaid Mask

Fine Antique Ring

You might also want to pick up a Jaded Palladium Bracelet, Gold Shimmering Earring, and Velium Shimmering Pendant. The rings Trablin recommended are Palladium Fire Opal Ringwhich are great for raw hps.

I've never seen any one of these items over 500pp on the high end and they are some of the best player made jewelry there is which also gives the bonus of no recommended or required level. Just those few items will give you a good boost in hps and mana. Since you solo so often, I also would recommend the DoN Cultural armor since you don't have to own the expansion to get the missions. The NPC can be found in your home town, look for the armor quest person under the find option.

Edit: Forgot focus effects! Shoot me now, look also at the following items, two of which can also be quested out of PoK, as well as the ones Dothammer listed and covers all your major focus effects such as extended enhancement, burning affliction, and extended range to go with the spell haste and mana pres items:

Batfang Headband or Drakescale Belt
Fine Antique Velvet Rose
Fine Antique Pelisse

Thought that was in the Umbral Plains?

Being that the OP is level 34, I don't think he will be hunting there "in a few levels".

It is in Umbral Plains, but they are good for druids
