...of an "Arena Fighter" build.

My thought was to use a barbarian or a fighter and try to get equipment with the following:

Life/attack
Life/kill
Life steal

What are the maximum values for these? What else would you look for (Probably EE, STR, DEX...) what about mana skin? Any other thoughts?

Thanks guys!

Life steal, life per attack and life per kill all very useful mods for any melee character fighting in the arena (these mods do not work in the catacombs however)

They are most effective when the ee on your weapon is high

additional bonus mods on armor include str/dex and ee on heavy armors

additional bonus mods on charm include str/dex

if you have any more questions feel free to drop me a pm

on the lower level's you might wanna stick with mostly hp on attack and hp per kill

when you get higher level start using life steal

str/dex/ee useful for your armor / weapon

with the charm just str/dex since you wont be attacking with the charm

personally i would try and avoid "Glancing Blow" though
