If you could pick any pieces of equipment for your character, without there being any limitations or conflicts between race/class and the requirements of the item, what would be your dream combination of items?
Mine is:
Head - Helm of Balduran
Armour - Robe of Vecna
Sword - The Equalizer
Shield - Reflection Shield
Bracers - Bracers of Defense AC3
Neck - Amulet of Power
Belt - Girdle of Inertial Barrier
Ring 1 - Ring of the Ram
Ring 2 - Ring of Gaxx
Boots - Boots of Speed
Cloak - Cloak of Displacement

Bracers- Gloves of Weapon Expertise
Neck- Harper Pin
Belt- Belt of Inertial Barrier

Do you have ToB? Is it really impossible?

The Cloak of Cheese is the Cloak of Mirroring, found on a Sahuagin Princess in their city. It is called the CoC because it originally reflected all targeted, offensive, magic to it's target, including (iirc) beholder rays, and all the other nifty magic enemies possess. With either ToB or the patch, it doesn't reflect, but nullifies...it's still a very effective item, and possibly the best cloak in the game [img]smile.gif[/img] CLUA code: CLCK26.

I'm no good with names and I don't know a lot of items so just bare with me [img]smile.gif[/img]

Head - Helm of Balduran
Armour - Errr... The green one?
Weapon slot 1 - Daystar
Weapon slot 2 - fortress shield
Ring 1 - Ring of protection (is it +1 or +2?)
Ring 2 - Ring of Gaxx

Hmmmm... I'm unfamiliar with items in the rest of the slots, but there ya go.
Hey, does anyone know what that sword is called that makes a glowing blue ring around the character and makes u feel special [img]smile.gif[/img] ?

The ultimate setup, hey? Well, I'll assume you mean non-pure mage or thieves, and no ToB items. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Head: Helm of Balduran: no doubt the most effective helm in the game. Lower saving throws, AC, and more HPs. Alternative: Helm of Defense.
Armour: Armour of Balduran: looks cooler than the Red Dragon Scale, which is better for powergaming. Alternative: Red Dragon Scale.
Sword: Celestial Fury +3: accept no imitations. Alternative: Flail of the Ages, Holy Avenger.
Secondary Weapon: Defender of Easthaven. Better than a shield [img]smile.gif[/img] Alternative: Reflection Shield, Fortress Shield.
Ranged Weapon: Gesen's Bow. What's not to like? Alternative: Mana Bow, Tansheron's Bow.
Bracers/Gauntlets: Gauntlets of Weapon Expertise. Not great, but decent. Also, Bracers of Archery, same deal.
Amulet: Harper Pin. Very nice and effective, good effects. Alternative: Sensate Amulet, Amulet of Power.
Belt: Girdle of Stone/Frost Giant strength. Strength is never bad. If you already have those, Belt of Inertial Barrier
{ [img]graemlins/offtopic.gif[/img] Is it just me, or do belts really bite if you have 2 or more characters with very high strength?}
Ring1: Ring of Gaxx. If anyone doesn't have this on their list, they haven't experienced true power. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Ring2: De'Arnisse signet ring. Very nice bonuses on a ring, one of the best! Alternative: Ring of Fire Control, Ring of Earth Control, Ring of the Ram.
Boots: Boots of Speed. Again, if anyone doesn't have this on their list, they haven't seen power yet. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Alternative: Boots of Stealth, Boots of Grounding.
Cloak: Cloak of Cheese. Arguably MVP in some solo games. Alternatives: Cloak of Reflection, Cloak of Displacement.

No, but... A PC will never be able to wear Firecam Full Plate Armor or the D'Arnisse Signet Ring, and same with Nalia and Keldorn.
