Does weapon durability not wear out with echoing strike?

It doesn't at the moment. But that seems to be a bug apparantly. So after it's fixed you need to put a Zod into it.

Blizz will supposedly patch the 2h thing that you cannot have a shield a 2hander. A book + 2h or 1h + shield. In that case, we'll end up with 450ed 2os eth LoLo ettin axe + phoenix monarch setups. Capping DS is super easy on Wario, mastery + highlord.


i guess tomes are shield class? Can we make something like rhyme in it? And what is max socket for tomes? I guess 2?

It's really cool indeed but insight gives much needed 35% Faster Cast Rate.
And is really easy to find.

with whta combination? phoenix instead of spirty?


the point is the confort and speed that insight bring to the runs, you dont really need more damage and if you use insight on merc you lose pride witch result is a bigger damage loss

What if you dont need insight because everything you hit dies in one hit, and you generate all your mana/life back?

with pride insight probably everything still die...

the problem is you face mana leech, souls.. and other situation when you might miss it..

but in the end is personal preference
