Enchanter BiS List for Classic Everquest
This page is my BiS (Best in Slot) list for Enchanter in Classic Everquest. I created this guide in 2024 after the Tower was released, this is a new zone which is available on Progression servers and it gives you an entire set of very powerful non-vis gear in early eras. For this reason I will have a (Pre-Tower) note for some items which let you know it was BiS before Tower. This makes the BiS list still useful for private servers.
Enchanters will want Charisma primarily during this era with Intelligence being 2nd most important. You'll also want AC & Stamina/Health if you plan on charming and doing anything solo.

(Tower BiS) Non-Vis Slots
This section includes the best in slot items that come from Tower (aka Tides of Time), a dungeon added in 2024 which is available on the TLP servers. You can purchase a full set of non-vis armor from Tower which gets upgrades every 10 levels. During this era of EQ the best tower gear has the prefix "Excellent"; in order to make this gear BiS though you'll need to purchase the augs that go with it too. Each piece of gear from Tower has a slot 25, you'll need to put an aug in this slot to make the Tower gear exceptional.
If you're a melee class you'll want to use the aug with Vigorous on it. Casters will want to choose the aug with Brilliant on it.

Gear Alternatives
This section includes some other gear ideas which may or may not be BiS during this era. During this early phase of EQ you can't cap all of your stats and what's BiS varies a bit depending on your situation. That's why I wanted to give you a couple more options for gear instead of only using what's best in slot.
