starting hell mode!
this will be my go to build.
i actually decided to use Valk, because early skill points into the dodging passives actually buff the chance% up alot. that and it's partially for style. the frw makes it more fun, too.
Lavagout for that AR boost. even with it and 10points into penetrate, im still only around 85-90% chance to hit. gotta get that 95.
the rare ammy from meph for manaleech and bit of resists.
mav's belt for manaleech/frw
harmony bow. the edge didnt seem overly powerful when testing it. this bow's speed and elemental damage seem to keep up.. that and vigor spoils me.
new bow for new harmony? if i find a KO. would be a nice buff until i can find the runes to upgrade bramble dart. (using KO means RIP wealth dreams...also i decided against Lawbringer for merc, as it would conflict with my amp damage from bramble dart! so if i keep using Unique tusk sword on merc, i can stack amp damage. ATMAS AMMY WHERE YOU AT?)
however with a bit of lag...this ended up being short lived. hell mode is really tough on players 8! we died several times. mostly due to lag, but that is something ive been able to survive through until now. thx for my glass cannon build i die two hits. so i need to get some improvements.
#1 issue is crowd control. i need Knockback again! i forfeited it for lavagout. i will NEF the brambledart when i can..but it could be a while until that bow is ready to use.
i thought about respecing to partial freezing arrow, but seems redundant when i play with a cold sorc. so i might as well keep packing damage as is.
#2 i need more damage. still also hopefully solvable with up'd bramble dart, or new harmony. so im off to kill stuff. havnt made it to countess yet. but chances ares itll be too tough for me to farm efficiently, anyways. archers monsters are OP!
so i will do some Mausoleum / crypt runs! being the earliest lvl 85 area level, its the first best place to find end game gear(next being the pit, after that i beleive ancient tunnels in a2). not only that..there are no archers here! so it'll be very manageable.
