Along this same discussion, I have a 20s Viso: 165 total Defense, 10% FHR, VISO mod, 95% ED, 11 life (Cham/Ber) - its not GG but its a 20s Viso with decent defense. Would you roll that out over the Shako Setup? (I mostly run EDC/Shaftstop). I have a pretty good Knights Mod Exile for Tap and an Eth Alma for non-tap.

Secondly, I have a nice Fort SA / EBotdz setup for fighting non-zealers, what would be the most ideal socket for my SS?

Last question, given my gear, is there a need for me to find a good non-eth Almas?

Thanks in advance!

I’d probably use Shako. But there aren’t any stats on that vis so try both and swap if the one setup isn’t working. Keeping a cham Shako in that giant stash isn’t a bad idea. There aren’t many great options available atm on d2r for jewels so probably an ed/str jewel if you don’t need the cham in it. For what you’re using you wouldn’t need a non eth alma.

Question, if my GM zealer build needs 20 IAS from gloves, what would be idea glove stats?

This is for D2R.

Definitely use Steelrend.
281 Defense on gloves slot >>
60% Enhanced Damage on gloves slot >>
20 Strength on gloves slot >>
and 10% Cb bonus

If you need 20ias make different other items/jewels.
Because you can easyly see Steelrend in gloves slot for Zeal Paladin is bigest thing ever..and is Top.

Crafted gloves even 150 enhanced defense lower alot,
and missing that huge 60% Edmg ;)

If you can use 15ias 40ed jewels + Steelrend,
will be allways better than Rare jewels + craft gloves.

…You can definitely get by with a 1 soc vis in non tap by using either a non eth alma when using shaft or when using an ss for fort sa.

When using a setup like shaft, edc and exile you need ias gloves so you wouldn’t use steelrends. You wouldn’t use highlords for ias with edc and you don’t have 2 extra sockets for 40/15s so ias gloves are the best option.
