"Gloves of the Fallen Hero" VS Handwraps of Flowing Thought.

so i got 3 drops from kahrazan today, [Brooch of Unquenchable Fury] as a neck piece and two hand items:Handwraps of Flowing Thought and Gloves of the Fallen Hero. question is, which of the both i should use? the hands item i can buy with Gloves of the Fallen Hero are better or what?

I'm currently affliction spaced, planning to space destruction when i have the chance. if you check my armory, you can see I"m half gems missing and way over 202 hit rating. I'm aware of it, just gathering the money for the +9 spell damage gems.

EDIT
armory is filled with my PVP gear :-/. hope it gets updated soon.

Handwraps of Flowing Thought, no question at all. Very good gloves and far more versatile than the T4.

Hope you didn't roll against someone who really needed the t4 gloves.... or did no one need em. Kind of sucks when someone just wants every piece of loot they can equip.

Only possible way the T4 would compare would be if it was for the set bonus...I only ever used them for my trash gear.

Personally, I used the Hand Wraps till I was hit capped then used the T4 gloves for the set bonus.

the T4 bonus is worth breaking the spellstrike set & FSW set bonus? since i got them both.

Re: "Gloves of the Fallen Hero" VS Handwraps of Flowing Thought.

Don't DE or vendor the T4 gloves, they'll be useful when you get another piece for the set bonus but until then go with the Handwraps.

Just as a sidenote, I ran Kara for months when I turned 70 and the only drop I ever got, the only one I could even roll on was the Brooch from Moroes. I went in a PUG the other day and sodding everything dropped, the Handwraps, the Trial-Fire, T4 gloves, OH from Nightbane, and the Mindblade. It makes you bitter when you had to gear up the hard way :D

EDIT: FSW bonus is absolute garbage, break it as soon as you have better gear.

Lol I used to think that the Mindblade was awesome too :-)

/Thinks er..... this isn't on topic


Yer Handwraps>T4 until you get 2pt t4 (recommend the shoulders from Gruul as the other bit)
