Should I wait for Queen's light or just get Temptress?

Just get Temptress. Wonderland completely outclasses Queen's Glory (as far as I know), so you're best off using the Temptress until you can either grind another Lv. 61 set (Broken Feather / Vehemence / Ingkara) or get lucky and get enough pants for the full Wonderland set.

Is it nearly impossible to buy the level 61 sets? and can I craft them?

Well, a quick breakdown of the Lv. 61 sets.

Vehemence - Probably the easiest to craft. You can farm all the mats pretty easily, and I don't think a full set would cost over 5m to obtain.

Broken Feather - The top/bottom/earring are drops from Titan, at varying rarities (earring seems most costly). The gloves/shoes are crafted using Titan drops and a few drops from the later Boat 6 missions. This will cost quite a bit more to get. It is also worth noting that this is the ONLY 61 set for Evie that uses an earring slot instead of the hat slot, which helps explain the earring prices.

Ingkara - Second easiest to buy, although Ingkara can be a pain to farm unless you find a good party who can DPS him to death before he does much. It only costs about 7m for a full set of this.

Ingkells - Not much use for an Evie as far as I'm concerned, so avoid this.

Wonderland - It's probably worth noting that a full Wonderland set gives the most Int out of any of Evie's sets. The hat/shoes/gloves are very easy and cheap to craft (they use Glas drops which are plentiful and cheap), it'd cost you less then 1m to get those 3 parts. Then come the top/bottom. These use a rare drop from Glas, his Torn Pants. They go for 20m-25m, so you're going to need a LOT of money to buy this one. It may be worth crafting the hat/gloves/shoes and mixing it with one of the other sets for a while. (About 40m to craft if you're lucky with sellers)

Raider's - Useless for Evies, but crafting it is about the same as a Wonderland.

Fallen Angel - If you like Stam, sure. But you're better off going with Wonderland for your endgame set. Costs more then Wonderland to craft right now (my estimates are around 60m if you want to buy everything).

- - -
To sum it up, Wonderland is the best set an Evie can get as it gives more then 100 more Int then any other set. However, it is VERY costly to get a full set and also very luck reliant if you want to "grind" it (grinding is sort of dead with daily raids). I'd get the Temptress now, try to get a cheaper 61 set like the Vehemence, then use that until you luck out and get 2 Glas Pants for full Wonderland (feel free to run Wonderland Hat/Glove/Shoes + Other set Top/Bottom though).

I don't mind the cost actually. If a set is good, I will work for it. So... WONDERLAND IT IS! Besides parts of this set is cheap. So I can prob get some headways with this.

Thanks again Invertex :D

Well, the main problem with grinding for Wonderland is that you're hoping for a rare drop.
Glas is a daily raid, meaning you run him once a day. The pants are a really rare drop. The reason I don't like going straight to Wonderland is because you might have to wait months (I've run Glas nearly every single day since his release, only gotten 2 pairs of pants thus far) to get the drops you need. If you're lucky, it'll take 2 days. If you're unlucky, you might still not have it after 3 months.

The 56 sets do hold up well enough against the 61 sets though. As long as you're not trying Colru or something...

I saved those blessing and Luck stones I got from Nexon compensation. Should come in handy during grinding.

Now watch everyone but you get pants. :lol:
No, I hope that doesn't happen. I'd feel so bad.

It happens a lot. I've seen others get 4 Lionotus Hearts (including one person getting 2), 3 Pants, 1 Shiny Stone, and 1 Quemielle Helm from runs that I put blessings in for.

What I got from all these blessings? 1 pants, 2 hearts.

Queen's Light Glory is a ton cheaper than Temptress. I don't see anything wrong with buying Tempress, nabbing the set title, reselling temptress, and buying Queen's to tide you over until you get your 61 set.

Light Ingkells actually has a nice amount of INT. The whole set gives 623 INT. (More than Ingkara's 592.)
It's cheap as dirt too.
The problem with it is its weight. It's very heavy at 290 stones.

And luck varies between player to player... My friend for example has gotten 5 or 6 pairs of pants since day one. I have yet to get a single pair and I run glas nearly every day and these are mostly runs with blessings. The only pair I've gotten is from my best friend... I don't really understand my luck with this one but...yeah if you get lucky enough to get all of the pants you need quickly then awesome and congrats! But if not, join the club. :(
