The Wanderlust shoes have been the undisputed classic for speed since the first part. With 20 percent increased movement speed and the effect that your speed is not affected by slows, they will get you through the campaign at lightning speed.

- Can be worn from level 11.
- 20 percent more movement speed can actually only be found on items from level 30 onwards.
- Incredibly cheap for the effect as there are thousands of these shoes on the market.
Midnight Braid – Never run out of mana again
This belt may seem inconspicuous, but its effect is a real lifesaver when you're running low on mana at critical moments. With the ability to recover 50 percent of the damage you take as mana, you can continue to attack even under fire and always remain ready to fight.
