What most sorcs fail to mention is that if your going flamespray spec you have a stigma that gives you an on demand 1000 MA and so at 46 I was melting level 50 templars with aether shield on and most jewels and orbs have more MA than tomes if you count the secondary stats because in most cases orbs have MA as a secondary stat that gives you more MA than the tomes or books because most tomes and books dont have MA as a secondary stat.. ORB is way better not only does it give you more MB it also gives you more MA when you count the secondary stats.
