Possible lack of items/focus effect items.

I went through the magelo DB here and where looking for some Rog Piercing Weapons for the pre lvl 70 raid area and couldn't really find any besides maybe as World Boss drops which i more or less consider as Raid targets too.
After Chaotic Serrated Bone Dirk and Chaotic Finesteel Dagger which you can get in the lvl 30-55 lvl area, in the lvl 55-70,70+ or 70+ Group area drops however no Piercer.

Another problem seems to be items that have a Mana Preservation Effect the only one i could find is in the lvl 30-55 lvl area once again Chaotic Shimmering White Shroud or Plate Boots of the Helpless from that point on i couldn't find anything which has the same effect (Preservation of Xegony) or a upgraded effect.

Suggestion regarding focus effect give the Kael Class armor bracer for wis/int casters a Mana Preservation effect that affect beneficial spells or if possible change the Glove Mana preservation effect on the Class gloves (only checked Chanter/Cleric) from a Focus effect that only benefits DD's into one that benefits all type of spells.

Another possible suggestion how about give a few of the plenty Augments that drop also a Focus effect.

Disclaimer:
I checked allot zones/mobs but i can't say that i checked 100% all possible drops zones for the above listed possible missing drops.

There's a dagger in Sebilis actually, it drops off of Gangreous Scarab. Here's the link: http://www.thehiddenforest.org/item.php?id=2888

It seems they went ahead and added a randomly dropped dagger already though.

Oops my bad, i know i looked at that mobs loot table in the past and i assume it slipped my mind that he had a dagger drop.
Well the main reason i posted it was, you where able to find for most classes including Rogs several weapons, in that lvl range and correct me if i am wrong rogs need still Daggers in there primary hand for Backstab.
The new dagger is great but since it doesn't have a proc it shouldn't be OP either i assume, but than again i only use a Rog bot so i am not sure how good it is for a actual player.

I also noticed a lack of +offense skill mod on high end items. It seems this is the only item I can find that is rather very easy to get and attunable at that (therefore everyone has access to this):

True Order Mantle
Slot: SHOULDERS
AC: 55
Skill Mod: oFFENSE +12%
Focus: True Distance
STR: +10 STA: +25 AGI: +30 DEX: +25 WIS: +15 INT: +10 CHA: +25 HP: +500 MANA: +500 Endurance: +500
SV FIRE: +20 SV DISEASE: +20 SV COLD: +20 SV MAGIC: +35 SV POISON: +35
Avoidance: +10
Damage Shield: +10
Mana Regeneration: +5
Combat Effects: +35
Required level of 70.
WT: 3.5 Size: SMALL
Class: WAR PAL RNG SHD MNK BRD ROG BST BER
Race: ALL
Slot 1: Type 8


How about putting the same skillmod to a no-trade raid drop item so that there is a clear upgrade path for the same slot (shoulders), like say from this one (avatar drop) which doesn't have anything going for it except the 100hp difference (even AC is the same):

True Metalcloth Cape
Slot: SHOULDERS BACK
AC: 55
STR: +25 STA: +25 AGI: +25 DEX: +25 WIS: +25 INT: +25 CHA: +25 HP: +600 MANA: +600 Endurance: +600
SV FIRE: +35 SV DISEASE: +35 SV COLD: +35 SV MAGIC: +35 SV POISON: +35
Avoidance: +10
Attack: +35
Damage Shield: +5
Mana Regeneration: +5
Accuracy: +20
Strikethrough: +5%
Stun Resist: +5%
Required level of 70.
WT: 1.0 Size: MEDIUM
Class: WAR PAL RNG SHD MNK BRD ROG BST BER
Race: ALL
Slot 1: Type 8


Both have very similar stats, but the metalcloth cape dropping from a MUCH harder mob doesn't have a focus, a clicky, or skill mod at all, this would be a good item to upgrade the TrueOrder mantle if it also had +offense.
