My name is Jonathan DawnHunter and I'm a level 126 Death wizard.
Currently I have 105 damage (may go down to 102 if I change athames, haven't decided yet), 45 resist overall and about 20% crit block. A bit more than 6k health as well.
I have the darkmoore gear (and a pet with 10 resist and some damage, I don't remember how much), which took a very long time to get, especially when Death is a supporting class and my "Jade" gear isn't very good.
I've seen a few options for newer gear, Cabal, Dragoon, etc. I've looked at their stats, and found out that their resist isn't as good as my darkmoore gear, and also, I don't want to invest all my wizard101 time in farming and going up crafting levels.
My question is, do you guys think I can survive the rest of empyria with my current gear?
I survived the game from level 56 until 100 with wintertusk hat and robe with random boots I found along the way. I suppose Empyria is harder than other worlds before, still, as I said, investing all this time here just for crafting and farming is not very fun in my opinion, but I also don't want to die every battle due to bad gear choices.
What do you guys think? Should I farm/craft for new gear (grandmaster crafter), or is my current gear fine for now? Would love to hear your input!
If you can, try and raise your block and resist. I soloed most of Empyrea, but I have an ice. And I died a lot. Maybe check the hatchmaking kiosk, and see if you can train a 3x damage, 2x resist pet with a may-cast heal? Empyrea is tough to solo. I've not completed it, I've just given up. But if you need help, I would be happy to quest with you.

But every time I look at new gear, it lacks resist which in my opinion is very important. Is giving up resist for more crit worth it?

If you have pips (power and shadow) and crit, you can sometimes kill before getting hit. But that's not a great way to plan things, TBH. I have a low-level death with some really good pets. Let me know if you'd like to see them and possibly hatch. Other than that, if your Darkmoor gear is working for you, stick with it. 45 global resist is pretty good, it's the critical block that might cause you problems.
