So you're drooling over items that won't spawn ever?

Stick to shift clicking and LLD, scrub.

You're missing the whole point.

Melee is about COUNTERS! If you were to create the "best" build you can think of, I could easily make a build that will counter it over 50% of the time.

You sir are 100% correct ;), this is why i have succeded in 18 melee and have done well for myself however,
speaking theoretically, im trying to get the highest ballanced stats so it would have the highest odds of winning vs anything

Now what i would have in stash vs a certain opponent would be different story in itself ;)

First things first though

Sorry bud but you obviously have no idea what your talking about, and are lacking very harshly the knowledge to understand the subject you seem to be arguing over.
Actually i take that back, your not even arguing over the subject at hand, your ranting pointlessly about your own aggravations lol.

Nuff said there though.

Thanks for all the imput guys, and a special thanks to since1987 for showing me his zealer and adding a couple tips in.

I Have created a setup which achieves the following stats:


3696-12k dmg
22430 ar
29035 defense
4100 life

From what im hearing damage is coming out on top once you hit about 3.5-4k life

All i got to say experience, test as many builds you can and find out what fits you best. Every build can be countered.

That legendary mallet is just too good to not use.

Do you need a source of CNBF?
And would eth rep beat the 20 AR on the gloves? Not very experienced with zeal, but still want to throw some things out there :D

omfg

Viper Visage Corona :o

wtf! So godly lol

TBH That Zealer looks just about perfect. I agree with above post about OW Life crafted belt - it could be the difference between living and dying.

Also - why not craft some CB gloves with ias dex str resi life?

looked to me as though you missed cbf out.

I'd try
fools legendary mallet axe w/ 2* Lo - really big increase in avg damage with mallet over zerk and mallet has more consistent damage too.
prudence sacred armour eth.
stormshield ( w/ jewel you had )
pala circ 2/ 40 ed 15 ias + other rare jewel
gloves with ias
highlords
raven
crafted ring
gores
dungo's.

Swap: 3holy 6/6/4 cta + spirit shield
Invo: 3/20/20 x 37 and perf torch/anni

Mathematically, angelics may add more average damage than highlords on a zerk build but you should do a few simulations to see which is better in real terms I guess.( as average damages dont tell you everything in ZvZ, its more average number of hits needed )

Also chose prudence over forti, because the huge bonus in base def adds a lot in nt where you don't have an exile ( your screen shows only 20k def atm )
