Looking for an upgrade to my Ornate arms and ss bracer

My guild is on the verge of SolRo, so elemental is not an option yet. I am looking for HP/Mana and resists as my main focus. Anyone have any suggestions, quests or mobs drops?

Since Magelo is broken, I am 5k mana, ft15 (17 actually) but i see those 2 slots as my weakest.

thanks for any hints/suggestions

Wait for elemental access if you are in a dkp guild. Hell, if your guild is serious about going to Time, the wait for Time upgrades. You're mana nd FT is fine all the way up to Time.

some decent bracers in VT and ssra. Arms, too, but if you don't have ih4 elsewhere, keep the ornate arms.

alternately, firehide and stonehide tailored goods might suit you well, depending on your needs.

Cracked Bone Ornament (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=22670) from Maestro in PoH is one of my current bracers. Another nice one drops in Guk, on hard missions: Fungus Smeared Bracer (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=25114).

Gravedigger Arm Straps (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=23434) drop in MMC hard missions.

Muscus-Drenched Manacle (from Deepest Guk - 1492)
AC:15, Str:5, Sta:4, Agi:5, HP:70, Mana:70, FR:3, DR:3, CR:3, PR:5, type1,type2,type3

Much better than a non-LDoN bracer because you can stick a +40 hp aug in it, as well as a type 3 (e.g., flowing thought) and a stat aug. It's a damn good bracer considering how easy it is to get.

I have to agree with Tudamorf, theres no gear in the bazaar I'd pay money for at this time.

1) Resists don't really matter in elemental planes or PoTime.
Bardsong is the key, check the resist in question with buffs and bardsong, if it reaches 500, your done. You'll be suprised how low your resists can be to do this. Sadly, even with a 500 resist, a lot of the AE's still aren't going to be resisted 100 percent of the time. Look for the cures, RC, RGC, PB and Annul Magic.

2) LDoN purchased items are pretty good for the points. You can stack up some serious augments on them.
(See that 1492 point bracer)
