You think IRON PELT and/or GLAD BANE is better tank armor than SOL'd VMAGI?

Yes, unless she really needs the All Resistances bonus to sustain her life pool after DR and MDR modifications.
This page might be of use to you (especially subsection 2): https://www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/index.php?title=Damage (In the row '5. % Resistance' AR is short for All Resistances.)

I'll pass on the YARI. It was not ETH but it was 3OS (do they always spawn 3OS?).

Every Hone Sundan has the Socketed (3) modifier.

Nice upgrade for merc!

Neat, it's only missing 6 points on the Defense roll.

AHH! Got excited for a second but I see it is only a LUM rune. But hmm, this would allow me to make SPLENDOR. Vs RHYME, SPLENDOR gives me +1@skills and 10 FCR, but I lose my resists and CBF. I don't think I need CBF (does your block slow down when you are frozen?), but I could use the FCR and 1@ as long as I make up the @res with one of the 20+ dual res rings I have. I will think about it.

Being chilled reduces attack rate and movement speed (run/walk speed) - block rate and cast rate are unaffected.

Item modifier Cannot Be Frozen prevents cold length and freeze length from being applied to the equipping player or mercenary or an Iron Golem created from an item with said modifier.
This does not counter slow from enemy Holy Freeze since the aura does not slow with cold length.

Tried some Andy runs, it's ok. Bloodfists and HEL rune. Need LEM.

Nice j00l!

Andariel (N) cannot drop higher than Ko Rune, so you'll have to search elsewhere for that Lem Rune.
Act III Lower Kurast superchests are probably your best bet.

Yes, that Jewel is definitely a keeper.

Farming BAAL for XP on minions and chance to drop something nice. Here is trang shield.

Is this a good roll?

That's it for tonight. Farming NM this week until I'm ready for HELL.

Defense: 175-189
Fire Resist +
(38-45)%

I think you can answer that :santa:

That is a good site, I like all the numbers and useful tables! I was looking at the DR/MDR page last night and at work also :P

It wasn't Tal's...



KO rune!! Only FAL left before I have OBEDIENCE runes. I think that may be necessary in HELL for merc. What do you guys think? OBEDIENCE in hell should work well for merc damage.



Check this out guys, what should I do with it? Don't say Charsi!

What's this?



Not bad! But I would have preferred DWARF STAR for the massive MDR for my build.



Hmmm, this had potential...

OK guys, I decided to start crafting some SAFETY RINGS. The safety ring can get up to 4 MDR and 6 PDR, if I am very lucky, plus a number of other useful stats. This would be a good substitute for NATURE PEACE, which only has PDR that is useful for me. So, here are some fail crafts:



This one is actually OK, I may use it.



So close yet so far



Time to play some more now! And I'll keep trying the safety rings.

I don't think I've ever crafted a safety ring before, lol. I was very confused by the +vitality for a moment.

love the concept behind this!! Gerkes is one of my favorite in the game and 100% underappreciated by almost everyone! Hope you find it cause I was never able to in any of my walkthroughs, even though I specifically selected builds that could use it...

Obedience is an excellent choice provided TankSork can maintain her mana pool without Meditation.

They can be quite good sir. They can get 10% FCR and a lot of other cool stats.

I need STRING OF EARS at a minimum, and a GERKE'S if I can find it. Would also love a DWARF STAR, better VMAGI, and MOSER's.

Thank you sir, I hope I find it too. If I do, what should I socket it with? As I said in a previous post though, it might better better to go with DUAL SPIRITs (MONARCH). That way I can get all the FCR/FHR break points I need as well as VIT, MANA, and RESISTS, and that frees up every other slots for MDR/PDR gear.

FROSTBURNS! Finally. This will be a huge mana boost when I move on to HELL. I plan to put nothing into ENERGY when I respec.



yay :santa:



Ah come on, give SORC skills!
