Normal uniq? What about Mang Song?


I’m pretty sure he meant mang song haha
Nice catch tho, I literally read mang song instead of the normal unique name that was used XD

I was actually just kidding because someone actually did seriously include a jmod and tried to defend it fr.

Mang Song on the other hand is a fun option for fire and lightning sorc - but nova not so much.

Oh XD

And yeah, the forum trolls who still laugh after posting “coh eschuta jmod” for over 9000 times have won. Some noobs looking for real answers see that joke and fall for it.

I still enjoy posting on jsp.
But sadly the community is now reduced to approx:
80% trolls who can’t refrain themselves from getting +1s with the same few jokes
19% mad dogs looking for drama
1% great users (soon instinct I’m afraid)

The only reason I’m still here is cuz it’s still possible to have a pleasant and constructive discussion with some ~30 users. The spam make it hard tho…

so to sum up

your big brained mf build has:
167 mf
22.3k dmg vs 0 res mobs
9.8k dmg vs immunes
1.3k l 2.8k m
a jmod

the build everyone uses has:
28.3k dmg vs 0 res mobs
15.1k dmg vs immunes
1.2k life/3.3k mana
can reach 167 mf by switching boots, using gheed and some mf scs
no jmod

hm

Oh yeah just switch boots and gheeds and scs lol. I changed the jmod for a -req shield so you stop crying about that too. QoL is way better overall - life rep, more hp, more mana, more mana regen, better base resists, FHR, MDR. Youre looking at sheet dps but depending on the zone all that extra damage is gonna be wasted as overkill with the same # of casts.

I think youre just close minded bro, typical sign of a noob.





It seems you’re yet again completely unable to understand that this is a study that compares builds on the same turf.
I ain’t gonna compare a real build to a mf build, that would completely loose its purpose.
But let’s be honest, this build suggestion tells a lot about your IQ.

That said, you really need to learn the game basics about mf…



Your "theory" about mf only semi-works because so few people run 0 mf. Plus it's not even true across all scenarios (boss kills, super uniques, etc). You always want to throw the baby out with the bathwater and say "oh man magic find ruins every potential good drop" but you never account for when mf turned a potentially shit drop into a great item.



wow this is gg :thumbsup:


Thanks brotha I knew some of the real talent on the forum would recognize a good build much appreciated for the kind words

I said I wasnt gonna do it but here's the final version with all the sc's/stats. I'm 1 point short of lvl 40 ES but if youre gonna hold that against me they can just swap the ring for soj for prebuff or ammy for +3lite.


First time in my life seeing a 4 piece tal set complete build
Interesting ty for sharing

This isnt pking bro you want magic find to find good items it's not rocket science. To get the same mf with your cookie cutter build it costs a ton of quality of life even if you get more dps and youre gonna have a ton of overkill dps which is wasted. I know these are kinda abstract concepts but please try to keep up.
