M’avina’s Battle Hymn:
Definately needs a lot of help to reach the level of the other Class Sets. DarkHelmet’s Class Set Ideas for M’avina’s seem pretty good, so I think I’ll defer to his expertise.
Naj’s Ancient Wisdom:
Naj’s is almost there, but not quite. At Level 78 it is an end game set, and ought to be used by either a Fire Sorceress or a Fire Druid. It can’t even come close to competing in plus skills for a Fire Druid, so I guess it needs to compete in Faster Cast? Though still inferior to the alternatives, it should be possible to compete in that way.
1: Upgrade Naj’s Circlet to Naj’s Diadem, or at least Tiara. It’s so very out of sync with the rest of the set level requirements. Or at least increase the level requirement to match the bonuses, because it needs to have level 70 worthy bonuses to fit with the set.
2: Add +1 to All Skill to Naj’s Circlet.
3: Add 25% Faster Cast to Naj’s Circlet . (Yes, this could make it best in slot for some non-lightning casters that need to hit the highest break point. Good, give the Griffen Eye hunters some relief.)
4: Replace the 12% Chance to Cast Level 5 Chain Lighting on Naj’s Circlet with 12% Chance to Cast Level 10 Thunder Storm When Struck.
5: Replace the Adds 25-35 Fire Damage on Naj’s Circlet with +15 Dexterity
6: Add a two piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Circlet of Adds 25-35 Fire Damage.
7: Add a three piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Circlet of -20% Enemy Fire Resistance
8: Replace the Adds 4-65 Lightning Damage on Naj’s Puzzler (the staff) with +20 Strength
9: Add a two piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Puzzler of Adds 4-65 Lightning Damage.
10: Add a three piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Puzzler of All Resistances +30%
11: Add a two piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Light Plate of +30 Faster Cast.
12: Add a three piece partial set bonus to Naj’s Light Plate of +30% Faster Hit Recovery.
13: Remove the +20 Strength from the full set bonus.
14: Replace the +15 Dexterity on the full set bonus with +35% Faster Cast.
Still not as good Faster Cast as you can get with HotO and Spirit, and leaves the Sorceress just barely able to reach the final breakpoint, but allows the Druid to get there relatively easily. This is probably the right place for this set, as while not the best for a Fire Caster, it’s probably 3rd or 4th best.
Orphan’s Call:
This set is interesting in that the various pieces aren’t that bad, but they just don’t work together as a set at all. Probably the main weakness is the shield, because it lacks Resistances. It’s very good at blocking and so can suit some Sorceresses, but it’s not really good enough for the melee character this set is designed for. The belt is also rather lackluster other than being dual leech, and even the gloves are weak considering the lack of resistances. Looking at the set as a whole, while parts of it are good for various melee characters, probably only a Javazon, and maybe a defense focused Fury Druid will work well for the entire set. Lack of resistances being the major issue. A minor issue is the +Strength being on the highest strength items instead of the lowest.
1: Add +15 Strength to Magnus’ Skin (the gloves).
2: Add 3 to Mana After Each Kill to Magnus’ Skin.
3: Replace Fire Resist +15% on Magnus’ Skin with Fire Resist +30%
4: Add two piece partial set bonus to Magnus’ Skin of Cold Resist +30%.
5: Add three piece partial set bonus to Magnus’ Skin of +15 Dexterity.
6: Add four piece partial set bonus to Magnus’ Skin of +2 to Javelin and Spear Skills.
(Note that all of these bonuses can roll on a decent rare set of gloves).
7: Add +15 Strength to Whitstan’s Guard (the shield).
8: Add All Resistances +20% to Whitstan’s Guard.
9: Replace Half Freeze Duration on Whitstan’s Guard with Cannot Be Frozen.

13: Add +15 Strength to Wilhelm’s Pride (the belt).
14: Add 24% Faster Hit Recovery to Wilhelm’s Pride.
15: Replace Cold Resist +10% on Wilhelm’s Pride with Lightning Resist +30%

17: Add three piece partial set bonus to Wilhelm’s Pride of +60 Life.
18: Add four piece partial set bonus to Wilhelm’s Pride of All Resistances +20%.

22: Remove +20 Strength from full set bonus
23: Remove +10 Dexterity from full set bonus
24: Replace All Resistances +15% on full set bonus with All Resistances +45%
Belt is a lot better with that, and the shield is a lot better. But most of all the set bonuses are now at a point that this a very good set for a Javazon.
