Runes of Magic US / AU

Hi fellow crafter!

I've got quite a cool staff level 30 that I've dirty moded to try it out! But as I approach level 40, it becomes a little short on power so I thought for my next staff, I'd start with one I've crafted (making sure I'll have a high dura + stat I like + rune slot).

Here comes the question: What staff should I try and mod next? The way I see it there are 3 options:
1) At level 37, we have a staff that can be upgraded in 2 (or is it 3) type of staff.
2) At level 40, I could go with the Miracle (enhanced) that has 341/448
3) At level 43, I could make a enhanced birdspirit at 388/512
Note: This is not an entirely thorough investigation, there could also be other type that could be better gotten with drops (where?) for example.

I'm currently at level 32 in terms of carpentry (my classes are 39/39) so I can fairly say I can reach level 37 by next week, to get to 40 or 43 I'll need more time and involvement so this need to weight in the balance (since I will be around level 43-45 when I reach it).

Thanks for you help and suggestions!

Thx for your perspective.

I realise the 43 one is better then the other, the real question for me will be how long will it be for me to level from 33 to 43 in my crafting... I've staked 300+ holly wood in recent days only made 1.5 level with that so my guess is it will take me about 2 weeks to level (by then, I'll be around 45/45 in my classes if I'm lucky)
