i don't want to derail this thread like i was accused of doing last time, but chilling doesn't do anything fancy with dodge (it's been confirmed many, many times on this website in the strategy section, and posted in a million other reputable websites that chilling armor does NOTHING more than add defense and shoot a missile), and here it's been stated that chilling armor "absorbs" arrows, which (if true) should be the case on a sorceress who's being guided arrowed by a zon, hence the point of the test

and i know that you get dodge locked by the ice shards, but my original point was that why are you close enough to be in range of it anyways unless you're using a javelin (which shouldn't be such a huge deal in zvz)

i have been zvzing for the same amount of time (if not longer) and chilling armor

it doesn't absorb arrows, it's been confirmed by many websites and it's easy to test, i can make a video for you if you'd like since your ego is too big to realize when you're mistaken

Probably because you use fort..... lol.  I have been playing bowazons since Diablo 2 started and since fortitude became a runeword.  Trust me,  I know what it's effects are on duels.



I wont be disrespected on a ladder that I am running. 

The rules are the rules,  they are not up for debate,  because I am not going to change that rule.  Cry and wine as much as you'd like, they are going to stay the same.

i've been zvzing since late 09, long before fort was an item, i use it because it's the best (even if it had no chilling armor mod it'd still be the best armor), i also know what effect it has on duels, and "absorbing" (for lack of a shittier word) arrows is not something it does

i'm not crying or whining, i was just curious as to why it was banned, but it's just a little disheartening to see zvz ladder rules are made up by people oblivious to d2 mechanics

i have been zvzing for the same amount of time (if not longer) and chilling armor doesn't do anything special, i can make a dodgeless zon for you and test it if you think it's a zon-only thing, while engel states that it's a chilling armor bug, and while cainc5 is saying that it's only for dodge skills

facts are: it doesn't do anything except add defense and shoot an ice shard when attacked (if you want 20-50 different sources to confirm this, i can get them for you)

why are you jabbing in zvz? why is this such a factor for people, is east zvz down to the point where it just becomes a melee fight? is that why bolt is gm and sm is bm? and if fort is for "rando kids" then it should be a bad build then, right?
