Where are you at in the game? How much res have you been able to stack up etc?

Personally I go for both res and damage. But there are alot of people going for pure damage glass cannon as WD has some really nice surviving skills.

Seems you lacking in most areas to keep up in a3 inferno. Your armor is okay but overall for the rest you need to beef up to handle a3 well. I'd suggest farming to gear up a little in a1 or a2 if you manage without dying to often.

Personally I got 39k dps, 41k life and 700 physical resistance and 550 in all the rest and still 5 slots of my armor to fill with all resistance/physical resistance items. So it's totally possible. My goal is 1000 physical and 700-800 in the rest.

But first hand damage is important to you to be able to farm fast enough to get gear and progress. Beefing up Is something I started after having about 28k dps.

This thread is awesome! I only have 1 char and it's a Wd Lv 54. I struggle with mana big time .. I shoot like a machine gun with my darts but can't figure out a way to keep mana... Help? I have 6.8k dps and I've been trying to find the right combo to survive hell.

Darts with splinters
Spirit walk mana Regen
Grasp of dead cool down reduction
Horrify/mass confusion
Zombie charger dogs atm no bears yet lol
Zombie wall slow..

Any tips would be much appreciated. I'm at work so can't post exact stats but in between 6-8k health and resistance around 115 :(

Thanks

Not sure if a set-up like this has ever been postewd. Theres so many pages to look through. I found this thread on a differ jsp WD build. The guy talks about it being for Hardcore mode. Ive been playing with it for awhile and it works out great. IMO best ive

found so far. Worth taking a look at.
