enchant
telekinesis
fire mastery

1 hard point in energy shield.
I have pluss 11 skills and can have 9 extra from inventory.

what should I do different?

roll a warlock

troll nest is not the best use a hyperion if you have the str otherwise use a tower shield they have way more block chances (you don't care about block chance just use the shield that look the coolest to you)

In your dreams

its simple you go for the good ol' throw melee firewall guided arrow multishot sorc:

60k melee, 60k throw, 37k guided arrow / multi shot, 20k firewall

PvP or PvM?

You'll get low block chance no matter which shield, and no FBR means slow block frames, so choosing a base to get maybe 1-2% more block chance is not needed and can even be bad.
The shield's weight is also to consider for mouvement speed penalties.
But the main factor remains str needed.
If you have to invest more str just to wear your shield, it's bad.

If you use troll nest, you might as well use BV
same str req, visually fit together, higher def overall

for aoe u might even use a warshrike

isnt something like warshrike better for pierce?

u could also go beast for some bearfun.

I think I both threw up in my mouth and reached climax at the same time reading this post. Gotta check out this build.

please tell me there is a video of this thing in action.

honestly it needs some attack rating , pierce only really does anything vs summons

the fools help a lot and javelins have +2 range adder melee attack which is awesome too.



not atm but thats the stuff im using so i could make one sometime

it's fun
