 Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring [1] (490064)

Brilliant Light Accessories | Look for the following Enchants:  Destructive Evil Lv3 (310254) ,  Happiness Lv3 (310224)

Late/End Game
| Type | Gear | Where to Get | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upper | +12A  Vesper Headgear [1] (19436)
|
Equipment Crafting | Sadly, we can't use Time Dimension Rune Crown because we're magic but Vesper is the best we can do. Can go +14 based on preference |
| Middle |  Gambler's Seal [1] (410233)
|
Alice Twisted Madness | Really good flexible middle slot; Enchants to aim for: 9-10% increases all property magical damage, 9-10 S.MATK, 9-10% MATK |
| Lower |  Ace of Spades in Mouth (Magical) (420213)
|
Alice Twisted Madness | Pretty straightforward combo with Gambler's Seal, Ideal enchants are +5 Int/Vit + +7 S.MATK/+7% Increases all property magical damage |
| Armor | +12A  Soul Purification Rune Robe [1] (450280) or
+12A |
Varmundt's Biosphere Depth(Soul Purification Rune Robe)

Soul Purification Rune Robe Enchants:  Soul Purification Rune 10Lv (312374) ,  Purification Rune 5Lv (312364) ,  Soul Rune 5Lv (312359)
Nebula Robe of Spell Enchants: Why SPRR: Hands down the best damage and defensive armor with the current patch Why Nebula Robe of Spell: You're future-proofing for the upcoming HOL update because it becomes BIS by then |
| Weapon | +12A  Flush Jewel Detector Mk47 [2] (510077) or
+12A |
Einbech Weapons (Flush Jewel Detector Mk47)
Issgard Equipment (Dim Glacier) |
Flush Jewel Detector Mk47 Enchants:  Expert Magician Lv5 (311393) ,  After Attack Delay Lv5 (311394)
Dim Glacier Rogue Knife Enchants: Why Flush over Dim Glacier: Gives overall higher damage, extra Abyss Square 60% Damage is not to be sneezed at since it's our main damage source Why Dim Glacier over Flush: Well, because you're a cheapo, basically or you wanted the bonus +1SPL/CON and +3S.MAtk at +14/+15 |
| Shield | +12A  Mad Bunny-LT [1] (460020)
|
Alice Twisted Madness | Enchants:  Attack Speed Lv.3 (310856) / Magical Lv.3 (310872) / HP Lv.3 (310875)
Very well rounded shield which gives us all of the stats we want as AC. "But why these enchants" you ask? AC doesn't really use VCT as much unless you like hard casting like me, but then again, you just get it from other sources. We have no use for ACD, our main damage is a 3 second cooldown when casted. no amount of ACD is going to save us from that |
| Garment | +12A  Death Rune Manteau [1] (480233)
|
Varmundt's Biosphere |  Varmundt's Crystal(Glade) Lv5 (311876) ,  Spell of Varmundt Lv3 (310925) ,  INT+5 (4714)
Note: 2nd slot enchants of Death Rune Manteau is pure preference. I like this the most so I suggested it |
| Shoes | +12A  Moan of Corruption [1] (470204)
|
Equipment Crafting | Best Magic-based Boots in the game, hands down. If you're not using this, it's probably because you're using drop rate boots. If not, just put the fries in the bag, lil bro |

Stellar Spell Seal Enchants: Why TRR? D A M A G E Why Stellar Spell Seal? Future proofing as usual or you like the VCT like me because you like to cast Abyss Square from time to time Note: 2nd slot enchants of TRR is pure preference. I like these the most so I suggested them |
