In addition to this gear set, you have numerous additional gear options that can be improvements, but might be very difficult to obtain.

• Mask of New Snow — Go for this if you do not have Engineering.
• Cord of the Raven Queen — This is a cheaper alternative to Belt of the Depths.
• Leggings of Charity — This is a free alternative to Breeches of Mended Nightmares.
• Darkmoon Card: Tsunami — Fairly decent mana regeneration trinket, but will be rather expensive.
• Archaeology — Can be used to farm a few additional upgrades, but these might take awhile to complete: Staff of Sorcerer-Thane Thaurissan, Ring of the Boy Emperor
