Why towers?

I do alkaizers in reverse (cause I like killing azmodan) but add rakkis takes about 30 minutes with 0 movement speed
Depths 2-3
Rakkis to bridge counterclockwise
Arreat 1
Tower of the damned 1
Arreat 2
Core & Azmodan

About 2 to 2.25 bars per run at 40


i run with a cheap lacunis (4m) without crit, that still gives me more dps than my old bracers. i still use my old ones from time to time, but i've grown less and less reliant on the EHP it provides. so, i have 24ms.

anyway,

the reason why alky does core&damned1 first is to get a quick 4-5 stack. then, you can gain the most out of the 75% from killing the dense zones (ac2,kd2,FoS)

i still haven't tested the regular alky route, but i add FoS --> bridge. seems like a dense enough area.

the armor's nice on the hour!

more like, "wow, those boots" -- was your most expensive piece, right Ouallada?


Hmm, actually it isn't. That honour goes to what I'd probably consider my favourite piece, the amulet. Especially as I got it ages ago, accounting for inflation and all that. I know that Tals can out-dps it, but at 16xk dps and shocking aspect, I pretty much one shot everything and would like to maintain some survivability. I can't find a Tals Ammy that beats what I have as an all-round piece. The boots and witching hour cost about the same. The Lacunis were a steal.

Cheap Lacunis should still out DPS that. My old bracers were 150 int, 5 crit, 60 AR and my lacunis only have 70 int, 70 AR and I didn't lose any DPS, though IIRC I didn't gain much either.

Just use a calculator like the one at d3up.com if you want to make absolutely sure you're not losing any DPS or something.

lost only 2.5k dps and 7 base res for 12% movement speed nb

tower also gives no exp whatsoever.

its alot easier past 120k dps just right click once that one second channel takes down mobs to half hp then move a bit and right click once again. people only take long cause they stay still when they kill

meant 35 ^ in above

with the 12% movementspeed from lacunis its down to 25-30 minutes
