Hmm you state 100 ias when it is 95 ias for CS and 89 for LS - so surely 95 ias is optimal break point
Another major point is your CS skill level will always be below 45 - this is important as below 45 you only get 11 CS spikes, at 45 you get 12, which can make a big difference.
Also your res is dependent on 20 torch 20 anni, Griff 15@ 10x scs 5@ = 90 = +5 @ in hell ( accounting for Anya bug ) or +35@ if you never die in game..
Even with 35@ and 'never dying' you are asking 40@ from belt/boots/gloves which giving they also need fhr + str + stats also makes them top 10 realm items or 1.08/09 dupes.
If you duel another java - you will get no benefit from tgods unless your stack is 60 light (90 with bug) and this must come from just your gloves + boots now - duel a java without tg's is your choice, but standard practice.
Yes storm adds to resists but in java v java duel you will still have very low stack - and lower damage if you use storm.
Main point here is resists + flexibilty - why not use 60ias 60@ jmod as primary shield? This releases amulet, all 2 java kb gloves can be used - if you keep the 40/4 javs then 20/25 griff etc etc
Normal java set up would be:
Eth upg titans
Enigma
Stat ama amulet - 2sk fcr 20str 20 dex res or mara 30 depends on opponent
2 java 20ias kb gloves
60/60 jmod
griff with 15/15 jwl
Dungos/BB or tgods depending on opponent
Rings raven + free choice
Boots - Demon tracks, or shadows - yes they are very useful to enigma java imo
Handy stash item for pubby duels vs melee is coa
If your char is euscnl I will eat my words if you 5-0 my java - who also gets 86fhr 95ias 9.8k (lvl 45) cs and 4.3K life with much more res@ 1k more life & more choice on set ups?
The problem with 60/60 jmod is that you require more gear switch options to maintain your DR and you would also lose your fcr when using coa.
As for the 100% total ias, that is just the total ias that the gear adds up to not the required breakpoint of 95% total ias.
I am not sure how you get 1k more life from that gear. I have base str and max block. When I jav vs jav I have 86%fhr/95%ias breakpoint/12.5k cs with about 100% stacked light res with 3.3k life. I could switch out my frw/res sc's for life/res sc's but I have not met a jav vs all that that can beat this build.
