wtf dude no






This brings up a point I made earlier about how many ias combos you can use to obtain 52 ias?

The mavina hat actually gives +1 all skills and +30% ias! Who ever thinks to themself, "i bet i can farm mavs hat from nm meph!"

Sadly the gloves are 4-set only and kinda useless in both base stats AND bonuses.

This is a bowa set. :(






And this is probably the final meph run. (for now)

Again, how I wish I could hold on to this.

I have NO mpk and it SUCKS. Only rare rings can roll it, not blood rings.

Long boring text ahead:

I thought I should talk about a few of the decisions I've made.

Aside from the stuff I've already covered, you may be surprised to find out that I am actually not going to farm titan's.

Let's talk about that first.

Titan's Revenge:

Quote
+150-200% Enhanced Damage (useless)
Adds 25-50 Damage (useless)
5-9% Life Stolen Per Hit (useless)


Don't need any of this stuff even for dual immunes because I have no jab AR / cb / ds / etc.

Quote
+2 To Amazon Skill Levels
+2 To Javelin and Spear Skills


+4 is a pretty insane amount of damage increase, but I'm a hybrid and really focused on piercing LF. So it's not -as- impactful as if I was a cs zon with infy.

Quote
+30% Faster Run/Walk
+20 To Strength
+20 To Dexterity


Useful, but not game changing.

Quote
Rep
+60 stack
NO IAS


It would force me to use treachery, mf a mavina hat, or some other unreasonable combination of ias gear.

And I already have increased stack from my rares.




The real problem is being forced to use treachery.

Boooooooooring!

The lvl 15 valk and +2 skills from Peace is also very, very important.

And I want to eventually use an a5 tank merc. He'll be an amazing maintank with innate life steal, fade, and Lawbringer's decrepify to slow everything. That's already two Lem runes. I don't want to have to grind 3 of them!!




This brings me to my last shower thought.

Should I socket my peasant with a psapphire? Lol.

I have less mana than a GREATER MANA POTION.. even with 50 base energy! It's horribly inefficient and I may need the +20 resist from an Um rune later on anyway.

My problem is that, looking ahead, I could get so many amazing hats. Andy's is +2 and 20 ias, Valk is +1-2, frw, and mpk!!, there's mavina's hat, uh... delirium?... shako... even cot gives life/mana/dex.

Is it worth the risk to burn a socket q on getting a pretty fucking improbable end game drop without mfing?

Will prob be some more progress today.

I want to unlock pindle farming and get a couple more levels. I was holding on to points to see how many more I'd need to get pierce to an active level and I'm gonna run 75% for now.

So getting level 20 plague jav before ancients or hell a1 will be super important.



Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who's been reading and putting up with my slow ass updates!

Here's a cat in a pot that I sat through a 30 second ad to bless you with.

Nice run, Im really looking for this hybrid build how will work later, keep going :)
Dont you want to buy a 30/40ias +skill javelin from Anya? Its not that hard to get a plain 40ias javelin from her with no +skill.

well honestly by the time i get to hell anya ill wanna just beat the game lol

im not gonna lie

i kinda forgot you have to beat hell to unlock hell cows and that was the entire point of this character at first

now i have to challenge myself to make her look cool while still function lol

also that +1 is still really important for D/A/E and pierce. +skills are gonna be hard to come by on a zon.

You don't need to be in Hell to buy a jav with 40ias. I bought one from Malah in NM and I saw couple of them at Anya too.

Some 20/17s would be lit.

This will rotate in and out of my inventory for a while.






A very rare and welcome sight!






I would have been so depressed had I found this on Airi, lmao.

49 ed. :(
