Caster Items are a type of Crafted Item that focus on Mana, Mana regeneration, mana leech, etc. Although intended for spellcasters, physical fighters with low Energy may find crafted Caster Items useful due to their boosts to maximum mana and mana steal.

All Recipes[]

Ingredients: The modifiers on the item you use in the recipe have no effect on the crafted item you create. The affixes are re-rolled completely, however there are advantages to using weapons with higher level modifiers.

Random modifiers: The maximum item level of affixes for random mods is determined by the Character level of the character executing the recipe, combined with the level of the modifiers present on the item. Be careful though, because you can create items that have level requirements above the level cap of 99.

  • All recipes will generate with the preset modifiers, and from one to five random prefixes and suffixes.
  • Jewels may be magical or rare.
  • Magical: All items must be magical. (Not rare, unique, set, crafted, etc.)
  • All recipes work with the normal, exceptional, or elite version of the item type. Use the exceptional or elite if you want higher defense or damage.

Not quite Frostburn or Magefist, but they add some decent mana, and the ingredients are easy to find.

+ Ith Rune (#6)
+ Perfect Amethyst
Caster Belt
Preset Mods:

This one changed from v1.08 where it was a heavy belt, and 15% faster cast. So fewer belt slots, and less casting speed in v1.09.
Caster Boots
Magical Leather Boots
or Demonhide Boots (Excep)
or Wyrmhide Boots (Elite)
+ Jewel (any)
+ Thul Rune (#10)
+ Perfect Amethyst

Caster Shield

+ Perfect Amethyst
Caster Amulet #1
Preset Mods:
4-10% Regenerate Mana

+ Amn Rune (#11)
+ Perfect Amethyst
Caster Ring #1
Preset Mods:
4-10% Regenerate Mana
