Prepping for Hell

Time to swap in the new one


Time to test Hell


Need this

Terribad


And then ...


Had been in hell for only about 30 minutes. RIP lvl 76. With the exception of lightning immunes things were going smoothly. In a painfully stupid decision to grab Wirt’s leg (omfg ) a might Fallen one-shot me. Really just had no idea what I was getting myself into here. Just need to try again and get more life, DR, and play way more carefully. If I had encountered might/fana archers it would have been an even more sudden death.

I had fun so onto another Javazon walk to avenge Brienne

Sorry to see deeds. And good luck avenging her!

Quick couple of questions for you:

What was your skill layout? And did you use Peace? If not, why not?

Rip bro.

Remake!

oh boy, that was a quick one...

hope you have something catchy in mind to restart =)

One point in Valk, 3 or 4 points in pierce, all the rest in ts and tf with synergies.

I was using Viper for the res and will definitely consider Peace in the next walk

Any tips appreciated 😀

Rip bro

As requested, the knowledge base I have gathered along my travels that has Sophia, my clvl 88 Lightning Javazon sitting pretty in A3 Hell.

I hope this helps you and anyone else!

Lightning Javazon:

STR:
77 (Dusk Shroud)
107 (Titan's Revenge Matriarchal Javelin)
127 (Demon's Arch Balrog Spear)
156 (Stormshield / Spirit Monarch)

DEX:
109 (Titan's Revenge Ceremonial Javelin)
151 (Titan's Revenge Matriarchal Javelin)

VIT:
Everything else

ENE:
Base

Normal Completed: LVL 47

Nightmare Completed: LVL 74

Hell Completed:

+ to Javelin & Spear Skills is preferable over Life on gear.

Shop for a pair of Lancer's Gloves of Alacrity (+3 to Javelin & Spear Skills, +20% Increased Attack Speed) from LVL 68. Affix Level Equation and useful links, https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=75118334&f=161

Spearmaiden's Gloves (+2 to Javelin & Spear Skills) can be purchased as early as LVL 50 from Charsi in NM

Make a Smoke (NefLum) to boost Resistances if need be.

Make a Peace (ShaelThulAmn) (+2 to Amazon Skills) ASAP

Make a Treachery (ShaelThulLem) (Fade = 60 All Resists, 15% Damage Reduction, -79% Curse Length for 288sec) ASAP. Stand in fire to prompt the proc to go off.

Make Rhyme (ShaelEth) in a Kite Shield ASAP

Make Lore (OrtSol) in a Circlet ASAP

Use Rhyme until Raven Frost Ring obtained as Can not be Frozen is imperative

Make an Obedience (HelKoThulEthFal) in an Ethereal Elite base, preferably Thresher base ASAP

Make an Infinity (BerMalBerIst) in an Ethereal Elite base, preferably Thresher. This is the End-Game weapon for the Act II NM Mercenary.

The -(45-55)% To Enemy Lightning Resistance on Infinity doesn't apply to your attacks, so this roll isn't important.

A Demon's Arch Balrog Spear and a Tiamat's Rebuke Dragon Shield are very effective switches for Lightning Immune enemies due to their very high amounts of added elemental damage on both pieces of equipment.

Madawc can have his Lightning Immunity broken by a Lower Resist Wand

Continue to buy higher LVL Lower Resist Wands as Lower Resist spell increases Resistance amount per LVL of spell

Optimal Gear:

Helm: Griffon's Eye
Amulet: Mara's Kaleidoscope / Highlord's Wrath
Armor: Enigma Runeword Dusk Shroud / Treachery Runeword Dusk Shroud
Weapon 1: Titan's Revenge Ceremonial Javelin
Shield 1: Stormshield / Spirit Runeword Monarch
Weapon 2: Call to Arms Runeword Flail
Shield 2: Spirit Runeword Monarch
Gloves: Lancer's Gloves of Alacrity
Boots: Aldur's Advance / War Traveler / Waterwalk
Ring 1: Raven Frost
Ring 2: Bul Kathos' Wedding Band / Stone of Jordan
Belt: Razortail

Javelin & Spear Skills:

1 Jab
Max Power Strike (Max once Lightning Fury, Charged Strike and Valkyrie are maxed)
1 Poison Javelin
Max Lightning Bolt (Max once Lightning Fury, Charged Strike and Valkyrie are maxed)
Max Charged Strike (Max Second)
1 Plague Javelin
Max Lightning Strike (Max once Lightning Fury, Charged Strike and Valkyrie are maxed)
Max Lightning Fury (Max First at same time as Valkyrie)

Passive & Magic Skills:

1 point in everything
3 - 5 points in Pierce
Max Valkyrie (Max First at same time as Lighting Fury) (Until gear is good enough to not require her)

Decoy. X 20. 1pt Valkyrie. Then 20 valk is an option later, but not remotely essential.

Honestly, decoy is the key for a furyzon as well as a frost maiden build

I love a java, and budget builds are simples. 20 fury + 20 decoy. Peace then gives you a 15 Valkyrie at level 30 (you have to drop 1 hard point in it to make her stay).

Pierce is the other key. 100% is not optional, it's you main target for these builds.

Bosses - standard merc set up for me
