Greetings, troubadors!

I have a new troubador alt that just hit 80. I don't plan to raid much, so for gear, I was wondering if the veteran troubies could tell me if the shard jewelry was worth getting?

I read the gear thread, but the info there seems a bit dated since the shard gear has been out.

I was looking at the sirensteel, onslaught, and regenerating sets and they seemed okay but not super exciting.

For a troub that wishes to sing for group content, would they be okay or are there better items I should try to get?

Thanks in advance for any input!

Check the Dirge Gear thread as it is the most up to date resource there is for troub gear... you wont find shard gear there tho... as it is not as good as most easily attainable instance and raid gear.

Save your shards imo

I can't see any reason to get the shard jewelery, you can get crafted/quested/collection reward/instanced gear that is much better.

Thanks for your replies. I will check the dirge list...

That's a short version of some decent gear that's not needed to raid for and some of it is highly attainable, others you probably would need to run a few instances before you could get your hands on.

Also, check broker for Tormented Bracelet of Doom.
Not something you'd wear long term, but with ~10p it's relatively cheap or with "Doom", a heroic mob with 72min respawn timer in Kunzar Jungle, it's rather easily obtainable and a good start.
Sorry, I'm at work right now and don't have an item link.

Bracelet Doom would only worth wearing if you camped the mob and got it to drop. I wouldn't pay for it
