Xr caster gear

[manuka]

We have lvl 40 randon caster staffs, how about lvl 70 xr caster staffs and bard harp.

Could have 100% more spell slots than tia gear and have 5% phys imm, all randomizable

More spellslots in that quantity are not likely, though there will almost certainly be an iteration beyond Tia.

Hey 200+ level 9 spell slots on a sorc are totally not op

On serious note:

Some ideas/suggestions not necessarily just for 70+

Bard:
- This time pls add level 7 slots for bard caster gear right from the start. The tia stuff lacks this big time and could use an overhaul on that part as well.
- Some DC boost to certain spells like stoneshatter and amplify
- Stronger AOE effect of confusion DC+SP (maybe ignoring mind immunity to a degree, or making the mobs attack each other guaranteed)
- More different items with boost to the bard damage spells would be nice, esp. the Ice Storm. The tia harp is basically a bound item, making anything else obsolete as of now.
- A cloak or amulett lowering the aggression drawing effect on the bard epic auras significantly for caster bards and it´s counterpart raising the effect for battle bards.
- Immunities physical, elemental and exotics are NOT optional for bard caster gear but a must have, because caster bard or not, you will be right in the middle of the action and mobs do so ignore anything and hunt you.

Wiz:
- Items similar to the "Wrap of Fistandantilus" stacking SP and DC boost in general to raise it ABOVE! that of the usual sorc. Specifically for wizards adding +3 SP at least and/or make this caster school specific (maybe randomly similar like to the abyss weapons = "happy grinding"). Could be staffs, amulets, boots, armor, bracers, belts and shields.
- more slots 1-9 plain and simple, because without enough slots you will have no option for varying your spells (u need to spam a specific spell too often in many cases to do the job, killing the strong point of a wizard completely).

I 100% agree that Bards need more spell slots. I do not understand why a level 6 bard spell is equal to a level 9 spell for number of spell slots, when a level 6 bard spell is equal in power to any other spell caster's level 6 spell.
