Spirit on amazon is new for me, do you guys reach the 75% block with spirit?

You don’t need max block on PvM.. bro. Java 1 hit everything, why you need block?

This is an valuable opinion from a SC player.

First of all he didn’t even mention HC. Anyway even on HC with decent gear you don’t need max block, it’s not melee.

Indeed i didn't mention HC and yes it's for HC :)

I think Javazon it's range and melee but in hc most of players are using spirit which is new compared to d2load builds

I personally never worry about block percent. Most of ranged attacks can be predicted and manually evaded, only thing to really worry about is thorn fiends, the bolts they shoot is hard to spot, and then it is best to spawn a valkyrie in that direction and see how fast it dies, and so to discern whether it is best to move closer and attack or to just ignore them altogether.

Other than that, focusing on high resists, high damage and good flow of gameplay is the best way to play javazon in hardcore as i have found. As an amazon, you will never be able to tank a lot of damage anyway, so knowing how to play will always be what saves you in the end.

Lower resist wand on switch is a good option too. And enchant from demon limb in stash on merc, and on self of you choose to jab yourself.

User I quoted wore Kira on java and argued that it's best helm in game for Amazon.
I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt tbh

Good luck

You have no idea what would happen in HC ;)

Please stop. If you can’t press ESC max block wouldn’t help you either.

Mind if I ask you why you only play SC?
