With the succes of my recent titan wt and the lovely support of the nice people around here, I
fell motivated to do another WT, this one wont be a titan however ^^, I have done enough of that, but this build however
might just be equally as hard in the long terms, normel should not be hard, but it does have alot of weak spots.

First Things first, yes I have a fetish for melee chars, I just love to be in direct combat, this build will however have the Means to be a bit
defensive, now I dont have that much exp on zon, I done a Little research and I know that fend is a rather good pvm skill, dealing alot of dps and with a two handed weapon, its
dmg can reach pretty high + the high critical % chance is autowin, combined with plague javalin on switch, I will be able of dealing with immuns and crowds, but my exp is very low, so any advice is welcome!

I have heard that d/a/e can fuck your attacks up( being stuck in animation), which I am a bit worried about, I really want a valk and the 3 skills are so good to have,
it is likely that given the lowish gear, that the skills wont activate very often, so maybe it wont be a problem, I would love to hear of peoples exp on this part, othervice I am find out myself.

Rules:
p8 at all times( yes countess too)
plugy alowed
Death=death

Goals:

Have fun
Try to get to hell and beat baal.

Killed some in the moor and got myself a spear, time to jab!



Den cleared, really not much to say :P


I kinda like this s/s, so many details one tends to miss from the game :)

Fairly enjoying it so far, the high attack speed is refreshing :)


Gotter pump that critical strike, but I am leave at this lvl and start focus on my poicen jav.



Poicen jav Works great, lowering the Groups life, making it so easy to kill with jab.

I noticed something new, or kinda new to me, this quest here you can talk with the townfolks 3 times for new info, I Wonder if there are other quests like this,
I am keep a look out!


Got the old man :)


My jab dmg is feeling a bit low, but its doable, I am run countess to make a steel spear, will be fun to do on p8 ^^

Okay so I did like 10 runs, it really did not want to drop a el rune, but I gained alot of exp and made stealth armor, given that I wanted to Progress, I decided to gamble
a weapon, third try gave me this one, it will do for now.


Bring it on!!!


Act2 merce is going to love this!

Going very smooth, jab does decent dps and poicen jav is so good vs crowds, merce keeps dying however ><


I remember some times ago a guy said that runes only drop from countess in act1, WELL WHAT IS THIS THEN


Andy was pretty easy, did not need to town once, the way to her was really long and she is not worth mfing.


I wish I hat more time to play today, really digging this build so far!

I've had moderate success using a jab/plague jav combo with upped titans, might be worth looking into. Fend really isn't that great against single target, and the same can be said about plague jav so using both of them may not be the best combo. Jab, however, excels at killing single targets with crushing blow(champions, bosses)

I think/hope that jab is a 1 point Wonder as far as dealing with single targets, plague jav can get insane amounts of dmg, but I dont Count on it to be the killer, but
since mobs are generally my biggest fear, fend will do very well, I hope ^^
