Hope I’m in the right part of the forum, otherwise I guess mod will move it.

I’ve been playing D2/LoD on and off since it came out. Mostly been playing Jvazon the last years/ladders with some standard builds to kill time now and then.

I’ve come to the point now where I figured I just spend all my FG and good gear in order to deck out my old time Javazon before she meets her maker, aka the 90 day login window, or I sell/gift everything and retire for some years.

To my question, what is the absolute best option for a PvM javazon in terms of equipment? Current setup is as follows

20/15 griffon with 15 ias/@15 jewel
80 life ~400 def dusk -20/20 light jewels
Bugged belt
Eth uped titans 200/7
JMoD 60/30/80 (60 ias/@30/80%ed) to hit max BP.
3/20 gloves
Bitter Spurs
2+ ama/ str/dex/res amu
Random rings with leech/res/str/dex
19/20 torch
Random higher Anni with some room for improvement
Bunch of skillers with varying life 30-40 (not paying 4.5K for ~50 life)
Mix of SCs with res/fhr/life/mana/stats/frw.

Apart from absolute bonkers 75K rare javelins like Eth 2/2/20 45O+ ed rep/inc stack etc, what could I change?

I’ve noticed that I can keep my res capped in Hell easily with Bitterspurs only and with my current JMoD I do have other options regarding my boots/shield.

I could for instance switch to Phoenix, but I hate the animation lag. Other option I’ve tried before was a -20/20 JMoD but then I lacked res (was running lower tri-res boots/Eth sands)

Am I missing any useful/odd options or am I simply 99% there?

Use eni instead of 20/20 armor. Your damage is useless if you have zero mobility.
Use -20/20 JMoC instead of JMoD. You don't need max bp and with bugged belt + 15/15jewel in griff + gloves you reach 52ias bp. The 80ed do almost nothing as 99% of your damage is lightning and you get resists with your bitter spurs, jewelry and inventory.

Griffon - gloves - BB = 45 ias so i need an additional 10% ias to hit 52. Not looking to swap out my amulet for HL so that leaves me with a 15% ias jewel in the shield in order to use Enigma, otherwise the armor could hold one. That also means I need to swap my rings for FCR ones to get any reasonable teleport speed. Loosing 20% of my max dmg and -20 LR is a huge hit to my overall kill-speed.

As I see it, if I want to keep my kill speed up I’m looking at a pair of 4/30s ( got a descent pair or Black ones with 1/10 rep and 165%ed for some leech) or 4/40s if I want to keep my 85% BP (95% BP seems unnecessary since she kills Dia in 2-3 hits anyway)

But I do get the point of mobility. Just being able to teleport to Chaos/Baal/whatever is a big quality of life improvement. I guess ill have to test it out.

tstroke
enigma
spirit
griffons
2 jav/20 ias/kb gloves
bugbelt if it's on your realm
10 fcr ring with any combination of str/dex/life/res
raven
2 zon/str/dex/life/res ammy
rare boots with frw/fhr/res - prepatch can be best
21 fhr from charms or just stick with the lower bp

Make friends with 200 fcr baba/sorc, they tele and make tps for u.

Enter with slow fat whale armor with facets zon and kill things. For baal u can use a 2zon, stats + telecharges amu just to tele on top of him fast and kill him in 2 CS pokes in a p8 game.

imo eni is a must, since the mercenary have habits to visit the maps slowly (javazon kills so fast, and run to next mobs even faster)

tele = mercenary close to you = conviction activated
