Druid is an expansion class, whats your point here?

dgtm might indeed help for a melee class, but ml is usually stronger in that case as well

The point is what OP wrote And I forgot when Druid was introduced, lol

And this is also what OP wrote

i see. though dgtm does not what OP thinks it does. dgtm does NOT work similar to sorc's energy shield (although Blizzard did their best to find the worst possible wording for this effect)! dgtm replenishes mana based on your damage taken to life, but you still take full damage. so dgtm is an alternative to ml, no more no less. since leach is heavily reduced in pvp, dgtm shines in some scenarios (usually LLD and BvB), but in pvm ml>dgtm

I think mana burn is the OP's issue. For me, Insight on merc is the solution, say, vs Uber Baal.

I usually will have a raven frost and a mana leech ring. But i was exploring the options of having a wisp for the light sorb.
Id rather have mana leech ring instead of wisp. I got already many pts in feral rage, so i dont think i need more on a ring.
thanks for bringing it up though.

It is. And it would be a major issue vs uber baal. But, anyway, im thinking more and more to just have 2 different set ups.
1 for ubers, 1 for normal play.

A long time ago, when i saw the uber ribcracker build, i wasnt considering having another gear set for normal play.
For the light sorb, i guess a nice options is , mana leech ring, wisp, trang belt for cbf.
The other one is just t-god.
2nd edit lol: 3rd option ..light saber on switch

Sorry if these items are not available in your version, but here are gears for my Uber-Killer-Fury:

Fleshripper(Eth rune), Treachery, Dracs, Gore Rider, Dwarf/Raven, Jalal(IAS/LR Jewel), Tiamat's Rebuke(IAS Jewel), Highlord's, SOE
VS Uber Meph: Metalgrid, Tiamat's Rebuke(P Topaz), TGod

the version is pretty simple . Its d2lod 1.11d . Its still expansion (Lod IS expansion, not classic).

I cant speak for d2r.. They made some changes to the ias of WW.

Yeah, I was playing LoD even after D2R was introduced, simply because Blizzard couldn't offer D2R for Mac, due to Apple's decision.

But Apple offers something to run Windows apps on Mac now. That's why I can enjoy D2R

TBH, I enjoy both LoD and D2R. The thing is, there were almost no ppl left in US West(LoD), then moved to US East, still almost no players there. So I've come to D2R, simply because here are more ppl. I'd play LoD if there were more ppl than in D2R...
