In the same way you can assess the costs for using fusion armours like Packmann suggests.

If we assume Packmanns info is correct we can say that upgrading with Wavecharmers Mantle will get you 50 EP for 1 fusionstone + 2x300 for basic armours + 25,000 for the fusion + 1 slot = 1 stone + 25,600 + 1 slot.

Reaching 50 EP with snakeskin requires 50/24 x (3000 + 1 slot) = 6,250 gold + 2 1/12 slot.

The difference = 25,600 - 6250 - 13/12 slot = 19,350 gold - 13/12 slot. So if the price of 1 enhancement slot exceeds 19,350 x 12/13 = 17,861 gold, using Wavecharmer is cheaper. That will be exactly starting level 60 (enhancement slot cost 18,000).

Provided you have plenty of fusion stones. I personally have 140 and I keep getting them farming snakeskin.
