Looks dope dude! May I ask how you talent tree looks like?
Keep up the nice work!

Sure dude I answered it in the previous post though ^_^.

'so far I have 1 skill in every Shapeshift skill except hunger (so I can test things) and I have maxed Heart of the Wolverine + Spirit Wolf, Dire Wolf, and Grizzly Bear.'

Sorry. I have been looking through your thread a couple of times so far. Guess I am too hung up on all the nice pictures xD May I ask what your reasoning behind choosing between spirit wolf, dire wolf and grizzly is? Doing a summoner-based build myself and I am currently at a crossroads as to how to use the wolves/bear.

Spirit buffs Attack rating on Summons - so almost every attack will hit, Dire wolf buffs life, and Grizzy buffs damage if I recall correctly, so they all buff the other two with their listed bonus. I run around with wolves generally but use bear for bosses - their damage is similar but it's useful being able to have 3 wolves to herd mobs etc.

Just got to the Ancient Tunnels, did about 15 runs (save and exit for physical immunes shortened 5 I guess) it level 85.

Did a test for how much +2skills makes on my wolves, and prebuff and swapping my topaz armour for Vipermagi is really helpful, plus boosts my resists, took a little while to roll a good map but I got a nice one with a short run to the entrance, haven't tested it for distance to tower/pit/andy though.

Time for a little progression - I'm going to skip quests, get to the ancient tunnels (still killing everything) and see if I can kill there O.K. - I'll either have to skip immune to physical, or use decrepify charges. I wish my mercenary had Reaper's Toll!





Here Goes!


These have dropped maybe 6times now ^_^, still feels like a troll, haven't seen gloves yet :).

Not a bad druid weapon here!


This dropped in the same run.. potential shako socket if I want to swap out my topaz.


Black Hades

Boneshade about 15runs in - AT isn't as fast as I would like :(.



Now that's a drop! 2down, weapon and helm to go!



Made myself a harmony, and I'm going to do a lot of countess runs :).

Nat's


Another great drop! Goblin toe +crated gloves: 32%CB if I want to go melee now.


60 countess runs in - looking for um to make crescent moon in the future.

Pul - run #82


Merc only died twice this time! Aldurs + 2 angelic rings gives me a lot of AR, even with normal attack and not transformed life is nice and high also, plus it gives +fire and light res from the armour/boots.


Eurgh.


So - should I re-stat and go melee (fireclaws) after Act 2 is done? Other options are fury with buriza, I really don't like the idea of missing shock wave though..

Do the summons add more damage than what you'd get from maxing Maul/Fire Claw?

Asking because I'm planning to start a similar character
