Even with the IAS being a non factor for shapeshifter, Treachery is STILL a better armor.

Slvl 15 Fade is fucking ridiculous for a HC P8 character.

I've just been hit so hard with 40 dr faded on Ellie that I started believing only in high HP lol.

But I guess when you have 1,8k life, no matter what you get hit by it will hurt.




I feel like I fell into a skittles bag of dark archers sometimes.






Making more stash room. I usually wait until 80+ to craft, or try to, but I need to replace these rings.

Hopefully this ring of good luck will be good luck.






Actually a solid upgrade. Probably end game ring? Would like more +AR, but dual leech and pretty big +life is hard to argue with.

I can craft a blood belt now. I'll keep the str on the ring just to help my base stats once I find a shield and reset stats/skills.

Decided also to give up fury. I hate the idea of being a shitty zealer with fire damage. Down to 1.9k fire claws already, losing viper and athena. Need the points in fire synergy badly.

If you're using a 6x Shael PB end game then leech isn't going to be very effective.
I'd just use something with resists, your's were terribly low IIRC? I'd imagine the Treachery helped a lot but capping can't hurt.

You quoted me saying that it "could have been" non-superior. WOW, GOT EM.

If you think I'm afraid of calling you a drooling fucking retard baal botter in my own thread, you're mistaken.

Report me like all of your little cheating hammerdin buddies do and never click on my thread again.

I'm going with worst case scenario and assuming my end game weapon will be a crescent moon cryptic sword / zerker axe.

Also is it my imagination, or does fade cause druid werewolf form to last 75% shorter time? Is it considered a curse?

Your imagination.
E: AFAIK nothing will lower the duration of werewolf other than being hit for damage that would otherwise kill you but instead unshifts you @ 1 HP.
E2: using WPs to change acts will unshift you as well ofc, but nothing actually lowers the duration.

I've unshifted a couple times halfway into my run. I guess it's my mouse being stupid lol.

That might be possible actually, I know fade makes duration of shrines go way down

Shrines are considered a curse, though. I am not sure. I'll have to test this out with an egg timer or something. Still farming a damned Ko atm.

It happened again..

You already answered your own question. Shrines get reduced for the sole reason that they are curses. Shapeshift is not a curse, Fade does not reduce its duration. If Shapeshift were a curse wells would unshift you on use because they cleanse curses upon use. If Shapeshift were a curse, every time you were cursed you would unshift. You can't have two curses active on you simultaneously, they override each other..
