Which Upgrade First: Get Armor to +12 or Put +20 Con Stones?

[Adeno]

Hi there! I'm having trouble deciding what to spend my cash on. For one part of armor, is it better to get it to +12 first, or should I put a +20 con stone in the sockets first (it has 2 sockets) before getting it to +12?

Thanks in advance for advice

i'd prefer put stones first, then + it step by step

As I remember +12 refine will give you ~465 HP(?).
Bonus in HP from CON is different for different professions:
WB - 17
WR - 15
EA - 13
WF - 12
EP,MG - 10
Also con improve hp regen.

So, if you put 2 con stones you will get realy better bonuses just if you are WB or WR.
For others get +12 item first coz it's cheaper a little =]

BTW refine and put stones into 2-socket item isn't a good idia, as for me.

refining 1 part of an armor to +12 gives 1000-2000 hp (depends on kind of armor), so its better to refine first.
