Just tested this... I'd like more info about your stats because there is no way you are tanking with 700 res/ 7k armor. Even with 1.5k LoH and 850 res/ 8500 armor I am struggling with tanking A3 mobs.

ZRave, wtf do i need to beat Ghom!? I can do everything up to him insanely easily. I have around 700@res 50k hp and 15k dps and I die nearly instantly fighting him, only being able to get him down 1/16 of his hp. I figured I'd ask you cuz your the man.

Ghom is broken.
It'll take a lot more than most people have to kill him atm.

So I guess I'm stuck farming A1 for now?

Maghda is decent to farm in Act II.

what he said is all common sense, already know this long time

I've been tinkering with my build further.

Currently I'm using Overpower with the Crushing Advance rune. It is good for two hidden reasons: First, the damage that is reflected is actually a damage reduction. Instead of 100 to you, it's 70 to you and 30 to them. Second, each tick of reflected damage also triggers life on hit. The coefficient is small, but standing in molten (super fast ticks) I was able to regen 4k hp per second!

I dropped War Cry for it, but I think most of you are probably better off changing something else. Especially if you play in groups!

Also, I removed Brawler for Superstition. Brawler is weak against ranged packs and that's mostly what gives me trouble. Meanwhile, I was a little bit too squishy without War Cry, so adding Superstition was the perfect fit. I feel pretty good now during the farm, and I die about 5-10 times over 90 minutes on a full clear of Act 3. (Buffed stats: 450 all resist, 6.2k armor, 60k hp, 60k dps without wrath)

2x 1Handers w/ 100% crit dmg + os = 200% Crit Hit Dmg per weapon.
400% Crit Dmg from just weapons Ofc, that's best case scenario, 150% crit per weapon for 300% is still good.

stack extra loh on your second wep (buy a cheap darkblade with 800+ loh if you have to)

keep everything else as tank spec and put ignorance is bliss on your bar (you shouldn't need it but it's useful to have just in case)

as long as you don't move he won't spit those little bacteria fucks onto you and you can just heal up with loh

Should I just tank out his vomit attack too? How much loh and attacks per second do I need? And what should I aim for for resists?
