A3 Start stats & gear are in a special album all by themselves so you can see stats on every item w/o having to wade through countess drops and other boring screens.

I'm now ISO a 3os helm for some MF. I seriously lack MF. Of course a good helm would be nice too, as would some new boots & gloves. I'm still using Tearhaunch & some gloves from normal

One last find to share.. I was going back for the missed WP after duirel and found this:



... A new Lawbringer base for Torch, if Torch can cube 3os into it

you need 10 more fcr for the breakpoint.

I don't think so.. From here: http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=2450747

oh damn, i was thinking of the paladin breakpoint. my bad lol.

get 2x 10fcr ring + at least 9fcr from amy. Then do a smoke armor ( nef + lum ) it gives 50 all res and you will still be hitting 63 fcr
spirit 34 + 9 amy + 10 ring + 10 ring = 63 exactly.

sorry , forgot you had hoto ^^ Actualy you just need 3 fcr from amy so .. any + 1 sorc and fcr would do .

I already have 65 fcr as can be seen in the stats screen. To get 105 I'll need another ring and a 30+ spirit, or a vMagi and a ring. I think you forgot my belt craft.

I'm really liking sanctuary for now though, and I've got 2 skills on the enlightenment armor. Spirit will be better, but I will lose resists. Smoke is a good suggestion to make that up.. I'll be on the lookout for a nef now, and a base... I like to keep options open, but this limited stash space is killing me :). I'll probably ditch the wintons shield, as I probably won't go for max block. I lose too many other nice mods. A 2os armor may displace that 3 os ap.

To get an idea of fcr and current resists, take a look here:





Hell resist penalty is -100, so 175 is baseline goal.

there is no need to synergy orb. all it needs is 20 hard points into it and the slvl17 cold mastery with items (so you reach the 100 res). after that its all about fire.

good luck

Thanks Mikk0 I may spend some hard points into cold mastery then, as I do not see me getting too many more +skill items unless I hit another wall and start re-runs again. I have a restat or two left anyway. I'll probably not spend any points until it becomes really needed.

Some final updates from yesterday follow..


I went back to explore my new tower & Mausoleum map. Overall the tower is better, but so far (and I just went once, and there were monsters there making it unstable) the rack is dropping normal crap.




It is a bit of a hike over to the tower, but there are four shrines on the way! Hello pgems!

I found some elite magic wyrmhide boots in the tower, and with the amulet situation settled for now (life & mana one), and no chance at +2 skills yet, it is time to craft boots!




NN the little extra resists from tearhaunch, so the mana & gold find is welcome. FHR is good, but it doesn't help hit the next BP.
