Imo you should be selling your GEBs until the price falls below 2 krono. I'm not even wearing a pair myself because I've sold every one I've gotten. They usually can sell for 3 krono if you are patient, and close to it if you're not.
If you want the focus, just pick up a Platinum Tiara. Same focus and a decent helm (35 hp / 50 mana). I've been selling those at 1k each, so they aren't that expensive. You can probably even get it cheaper. You could also camp it yourself, King is NEVER camped. I did 48-50 in 6 hours at the King camp, I was farming 4 picks over and over the entire time, no one ever gave me any trouble. Although it can be kind of rare, so just a fair warning.
Spell haste really sucks to get until Velious. INT casters pretty much need a djarns, so ya that is rough. If you have a few accounts you can just spawn a few solb instances every 2.5 days if you don't want to fight over the camp. You can spawn the instance with 1 toon & 5 offline toons, so you only get the lockout on 1 account at a time.
If you are a priest you can just go with the Mithril Runed Tunic, Moonstone Ring (Ext range) & Clawed-knuckle ring route (ext buffs).
