Been trying to theorycraft these tradeoffs lately, and I'm wondering if anyone's tried both? Trying to maximize those damages for faster clears

Yes.

Yes of course

2x -5 sling on hammerdin

opal 5% + soj on mage

That's what I was leaning towards. - EMR just seems so damn GG, especially against magic immunes...of which there are plenty in the tombs (for fast leveling)

its nice yea

but tbh mage is far superior to hammerdin atm, at higher levels and with end game gear

almost feels like theres no point going over 15k damage anyway on hammerdin, and the mage does like 24k hammer (since everyone counting the stupid 50% dmg buff these days for some reason) and 8k foh aswell

What about sling + opal? Ive been running that but will try 2 slings instead.

-res is always more damage if your running a sunder, if you are not gonna run the sunder, than there is no point to run sling rings, you would just use sojs or bks.

-enemy res is mandatory to max out as much as possible with a sunder, not even a debate.
