Haven't seen you post in a long time, how you been?
The 136 dex for PB is handy when using Conc instead of Berserk, read the strategies.

Again I have to elaborate:
#1 Max Block is very good vs Pack, not needed since 90% of the time it is 1vs1
#2 Berserk has Zero Defense, why interrupt your Single attack by blocking, then get Blocklocked which means you can not do anything.
#3 35% DR is good again vs Pack, but, 90% of the time you only attack a Single Monster.
#5 If you get hit by 1 or 2 monsters, and have a corpse on the ground, the Redemption restores more life than the dmg (not amped)
#6 the 350-400% enhanced damage makes you kill easier, basically only 1-2 hits single game, 2-4 hits full game, so with SS it is 2-3 hits single game, 4-6 hits full game

Also, I did not want to make the same build as Bigsipo, his build uses the SS.

nice guide, but just wanted to warn you and ppl from chilling to much in cs , even babas can die easily, even if they seem to be safest cs'ers of all time :
iron maiden+mana burn->no mana for berserk->normal hit->insta dead
happenend to me 3times at 96>_< just sucked, even if 96 isnt really high, its still something thats looking for a cool solution, i think the stuncry is a good one (stun all of the minions as soon as u realize that the boss (for example infector) got manaburn to reduce the chance of beeing manaburned)

Thank you for the info, and you are correct about the Mana Burn, and I think it is implemented in the Strategy section already.
You will notice that the Caster does not physically attack, they run, so the minions are the ones to Stun/Howl, pot mana str8 away or full juv.

Another way is when they mana burn and you have been cursed, just tele into a caster, they will automatically do 2 things, 1, will cast "Decrepify" on you and then run, or vice versa. So Howl instead of stun so that the caster can "Decrepify" you, if you manage to Stun caster, you will still be "Iron Maidened"

I do not use the Warcry skill, so I am unsure if it will stun the Caster or not, but I do know that Howl does NOT affect the Caster.
