A couple of questions from an old noob

Otherwise, a shroud of the battle saint is nice if you have a good bless.

But the eth cloack has one big downside, it removes the already existing armor of the unit.

Look at this: http://dom3.servegame.com/wiki/Gearing_Thugs_and_SC%27s for more info.

Regarding misc slots:
+mr is always good. (Stops a lot more mind hunts). And luck also works, but you also want more resistances etc. So, once again, it depends. Vs the AI, I would not know, +mr isn't needed much then anymore.
