This guide shall inform and motivate you about late game items that you could aim for.

It includes also items and affixes from the latest Dawn of Dragons expansion. Meaning: higher level items and more affixes than shown in the wiki.

Staff

Luminaire, focusing on maximizing Spellshaper class skill damage output.

Damage

Battlemage: Add weapons power to spirit power.
Elemental Fury: 33% chance to “double skill”. The target is random but still, it is ~33% more damage output.
Flames: +45 power. Some skills use weapon power for their damage. The +45 increases the damage output of these skills.

Optional

Brave and Companions: Depend on your play style.

Offhand

Master Codex, focusing on defense and maximizing Spellshaper class skill damage output.

Damage

Scholar: using an ability reduces the CD of another by 1.
Blasting: Abilities ignore 50% of elemental resistances.

Defense

Prismatic: gain resistance on all types.
Elemental Shielding: +20% elemental resists.

Optional

Magus: More staff damage. I will replace this though at some point because I rarely use my staff.

Armor

Ceremonial Plate, focusing on maximizing defense only.

Note that internally, physical resistance is capped at 75%, even if the stats page shows a higher number. Also note that heavy armor attracts monsters a lot faster than medium and light armor.

Defense

Bubble: gain a shield at 50% HP. Saved my life many times. Also a highly graphical and sound notification telling you: Heal up. Now!
Challenges: Less damage from ALL kinds of champions.
Determination: Less damage from summoned creatures.
Heavy: +10% physical resist at the cost of -3 CT gain.
Impenetrable: -11 physical damage.

Accessories

Davalimar’s Phoenix Pendant, focusing on surviving a deadly hit and increasing basic stats. Can be bought at the Casino (but it probably also drops as loot).

Stats

Harmonious: +20 Spirit.
Concentration: +20 Discipline.
Luminous: +20 Energy.

Optional

Recharging: Regain 3% of max Energy when defeating non-trivial enemies. Note: BAD IDEA to put this rare affix on an item that disappears.
Companions: 8% Corral pet damage and defense.

Juggernaut Helm, focusing on damage mitigation, anti-CC and increasing basic stats.

Stats

Harmonious: +20 Spirit.
Luminous: +20 Energy.

Anti-CC

Warmth: You cannot be Frozen or Chilled. Extremely helpful because you will encounter many enemies that use water skills.

Optional

Companions (this stacks): 8% Corral pet damage and defense.
Loyalty (this does not stack, probably): Corral pet restores 10% of its max Health when you defeat a non-trivial monster.
