really appreciate the responses, just got a highlords and swapped out dungos for SOE

think i will stick with fort for extra damage although no teleport is really annoying

Pally Phoenix I actually never thought of, maybe if I find a good 45 res base I can make one

thanks everyone

Yeah I actually use insight on my merc so I can at least endlessly charge around maps really quickly which makes up for the lack of a slow teleport well enough for what i do with him

ignore target defense is the most useless stat ever. ITD does not apply to any of the following:

Champion
Unique
Super Unique
Boss

So you need attack rating.

You can just smite them tho, so it really doesn’t matter

Looking for some help on my pvm zealer, he's got pretty decent gear which was all self found besides the Lo runes but main question is how much AR should I be trying to hit?

wep: 34 ias 9 ed 375 dmg grief
helm: guil
armor: diamond mail fort
shield: upped hoz
boots: gores
belt: dungos
ring1: raven
ring2: 63 ar, 2ml, 6ll, 5lr
gloves: laying of hands
ammy: mahim oak curio
ptorch
anni
gc: pcomb, 9 max dmg 55 ar, 9 max dmg 50 ar 24 life, 126 ar 38 life, gheeds
sc: 10 life 10 lr, 175 psn dmg, 14 life 9 lr, 10 lr, 100 psn dmg 1-16 lite dmg, 18 life 7 pr, 1-2 cold dmg 11 lr, 3 ar 18 life

RESISTANCES: 75 FR, 42 CR, 80 LR, 49 PR

my zeal damage shows as 1140-1541 and AR shows as 7298

Obviously upgrades can be made to my charms, my amulet sucks as well but I threw it on for more AR

Besides getting a hilords is there any other like obvious upgrade that doesnt cost a fortune or is this fairly standard? Are more AR charms worth it? Should I scrap the laying of hands and go dracs or something?
I just feel like I don't hit monsters as frequently as I thought I would or kill as fast as I would have thought


Have you test out build your Zealot around Death Eth Ettin Axe ?

Try this out :)

- Guilli ” 15 Ias / Res jewel ”

- Death Eth Ettin

- Forty

- Zaka ” 15 Ias / Res jewel ”

- LoH

- Nofse

- Gores

- HL

- Raven

- Second Raven / Melee Ring / Dwarf / Wisp or what ever :D

Iirc Death Ettin needed ~80 Ias as Zealot ( you can also google Ias calculators ) and thats why Ias jewels and Nosferatus Coil is needed.

Try get that new ” Sundering Charm ” which removes Phys immunes and use Infy Merc to get -Def for higer change to hit :)

As Merc :

- Eth Andy

- Eth Infy

- Eth Forty

Also Eth Treachery works and in this case you should check Ias BP’s for Jab and use faster weapon base for Infy. Iirc Thresher was fine for this and had some BP if you soc that Andy with Ias jewel ( with Fire Res ).
