Choi's SVS Arch Mage Guide: Difference between revisions

The [[Shadow_Gear#Master_Shadow_Gear|Master Shadow Gear]] is a slightly weaker but cheaper option than the blue shadow gear. The Master Shadow gear provides both 100% DEF/MDEF penetration and 20% RES/MRES penetration. As such, it is a flexible shadow set that can be used on both physical and magical classes. However, the [[Shadow_Enchanting#Master_Shadow_Gear_Enchanting|enchants on the Master Shadow gear]] give bonuses for specific skills e.g. {{#item:312241}}, so with the enchants it is the most specific shadow gear. Additionally, the enchants on the Shadow Gear, while pricey, are specific and won't require RNG. Master Shadow Gear is a great option even though it is a little bit weaker as it is cheaper and easier to enchant.  

Mixed Blue Shadow Gear is the strongest option and provides a lot of flexibility for magic classes. Blue Shadow Gear refers to the various kinds of Blue Colored Shadow Gear that are available. These Shadow Gears can provide additional bonuses like permanent {{#skill:8}} status with the Lord Bearer's Combo {{#item:24764}}. Unlike Master Shadow Gear, you can mix and match different Blue Shadow Gear but do note that they still have their own combos. Blue Shadow Gear is more expensive and their [[Shadow_Enchanting#New_Sets|enchants require RNG]]. However, due to their enchants not being skill-specific, they can be used for all your magic damage classes.
