eth needle zoded better

Used Fortitude eth thunder maul to level 3x 99 warlocks on HC to get maximum resistances and chilling armor.
Was from my testings pre ladder reset.

Don't think I will ever play echoing strike again after 4x 99s of them, and having more fun doing fire instead. But if I had to with the new changes Death eth decapitator would probably be my choice.

why would anyone use maxroll?

Nah, I have learned not to trust the cookie-cutter guides on maxroll over the years. I felt like Eth TM Fort was pretty sus from the start. Tried a non-eth +4 Ariocs for a while and then quickly switched to Insight/Obsession for the rest of the season.

So if no one used tm forti... why there were so many on sale...

how much will perf roll cost ?

on 15/3 base ofc.

I used a non eth insight cv as I never found an eth one but a wirts leg would have been ok too

cv insight ----> eth cv insight --- eth archon staff obession

thats the order i went after reaching lvl 60+

ok so I get the Eth TM Fort hate because prices were bonkers, but that said...

When I was finishing my 99 push, I was doing solo P8 TZ and had BIS gear outside of charms. You're not one shotting everything in P8 96 TZ (mob type, affix type, etc. matter), but yes things die quickly. The TM Fort said was doing noticeably more damage than the Insight setup and helped my finish my leveling faster. It also pairs better with a high roll Ars'Dul Mephistos (benefits from the damage more on TM than on a Insight base). Since I was burning out on leveling, it was worth it to me to pick up the more expensive items and finish it asap.

Is it worth the cost compared to what you get versus Insight? Not at all. But if you're cost-agnostic it's better.
