yea my resis are: low like 20s but no negatives and I have 95% es with 1.5k life 3.9k mana ...


well if you look at the high end of light sorc damage, it can be higher than 40k. with the pvp caster penalty, thats ~6666~ Damage. 95% of that damage will be taken by your mana, the rest hitting your life. The amount your ES+mana can't absorb hits your life directly, low resists don't reduce it very much. Even with 20 resists, this will still be a fair bit of damage.

Use treachery to prebuff fade to get better resists, or simply use the set-up i listed to maintain high resitances always.

I might if I decide to update, but it's essentially the same for any character. Any melee character, you tele on top and attack, you should be able to take em down in 1-2 hits. Against casters, do your best to avoid their attack, once you see an opportunity, tele on them and attack.

Does Zeal hit when you are in range and press shift without actually having to click on them or do you have to reposition the cursor like smite? I'm pretty sure you can just hold shift but I'd just like to confirm.

you can, but it will be a normal attack until it hits something, at which point it activates the 5 hit zeal. and you can use shift for smite. you just have to rely on enemies running into you tongue.gif
