Personally if you are playing a caster just get a mixture. A bronze chest is
nice protection and no real +wis there early on, then get a few of the lower
+ wis items and have bronze whereever you can fill in but beware it is very
very heavy. At the end of the day as a caster you are trying to stay out of
combat I presume and med heal and then finish off. As long as you back off
enough you wont get hit too often and if the group you are with is any good
when they do get thrpough on you they get pulled off or else it might be
time for divine get the heck out after a quick heal or 2. I would mix both
if that is the case you will be wastin weight and possible mana + just to
have the full bronze. Besides which the other items will give you balance in
other areas. Just a thought and i am sure there are many others that will
differ.
