Red Nemesis Worth getting?

Genocide · February 27, 2007, 03:42 PM

I've been wondering. I bet some of you know fo the peices of armor that are the same as Nemesis in looks, but are Red. They're Superior quality, and aren't actually a set with bonuses and such. Here are the peices:

http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27781#00Rz (Head)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27994 (Shoulders)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27799 (Robe)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27795 (Belt)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28338 (Legs)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27821#z0z (Feet)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27462#z0z (Wrists)
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27493#z0z (Gloves)

All are Heroic Drops btw.

But i'm asking this. Is it good for an Aff lock at level 70? I'll be raiding as an Aff lock for awhile. Then i'm going Destro though, and this set will be little to no good then with no Crit on it. But is the spell damage good and such for level 70 Superiors, or am i just better making my own set of items from instances and stuff????

Yes, it's worth!
The robes, legs,shoulders and belt drop in normal mode instances.
I've 'farmed' the Steamvault about 10 times to get the robes+belt, the shoulders dropped on our first CoT2 run

This is a massive +STA +Spelldamage set, perfect for any affliction lock, and the look is soooo sweet

But as I had the luck to drop the complete Oblivion set, the red Nemesis got replaced by it. Filled up with the right jewels, Oblivion is superior to the off-set items.
With all the available enchants (mystic spellthread,Sha'tar head enchant, spellpower for gloves,Zandalaar shoulder, etc) I just cracked the +1000 spelldamage barrier

I think the items are great, but if you are looking for +damage you better complete a few questlines and you get little less stats, but superior +damage %hit and %crit

Not all of the tems are heroic. I got the robe on "normal" steamvault, and I'm pretty sure the belt and shoulders are not heroic either.

Well then. Thanks for the input

I thought they were all heroic, guess i was Wrong. Would they also drop from Heroic by chance? And would the chance be upped or not??
