Wait, I might not be reading this right, but you played a bow paladin in pvp?


Currently have a level 30 fire ranger active, but in the past I have used (HLD):
Fire Ranger (exploding arrows)
Brand Ranger (normal arrows)
Frost Ranger (guided arrows)

One build I forgot was the Suicide Druid

if that palidan is using a lower resist wand then they cant use hoj


An astute observation. Unfortunately, Hand of Justice does not exist back in classic, which preceded the introduction of a Second Weapon Slot

I was thinking about making one. Just wasn't sure if it would be best to do HoJ, to stack with Holy Fire, or Kuko for exploding.
If you have a build it would be greatly appreciated if you could pm it to me.

I have not used an HLD is an extremely long time, its far more effective in LLD (30), which is what I've currently got it on.
However, I can assure you that Exploding Arrows (Demon Machine) is far, far, far superior to normal arrows + hoj + dragon, for like 20 different reasons. Its not even close
(more base damage, you're never in range for conviction anyway, you land about 30x as many hits with exploding arrows, you shoot faster, etc etc)

But in the end you're basically a fireball sorc with slower teleport and lower damage, except that your fireballs are invisible.

i got a question... aura necro?

i was playing on hero editor today and i found out that the necro curse, lower resists, takes away immunities at a high lvl..
if u used this and some auradin gear like dragon armor, dream shield, dream helm, hoj phase blade, etc. wouldnt this build have the same effect as an auradin if u stacked it? and it would have a wider radius than the pallys coviction aura


I think that you would need some Resist Fire sk + Salvation + Resist light to increase the aura dmg :P

ok yeah fc/rabies used to be very popular, but that was indeed back when they got boulder from stone & poison creeper from carrion wind
which meant they could actually have great damage on both and dump points into lycan/oak, which made them beastly. Even if they still sucked vs teleport

But they simply don't exist any more, since you can't get more than 2 synergies to FC, and thats with 1 pt lycan/oak They're largely replaced by Fury/Rabies hybrids.
I suppose it could still be possible, but I think it falls under the category of "Hybrid builds that are possible, but don't work well enough to mention"
Heck, back then, you could pull down 35k+ rabies and 9k+ fireclaws and still get +450% or more life

Like you could make a Valkazon / Bearazon hybrid, but it wouldn't really be any more notable than either of those.
But a Hammer/Foh pally is notable enough to call a Mage.


and a drop barb is a very berry bad thing


Verashi and myself wrote a guide on diabloii for fc/rabies in 1.11. Results: I had 30k rabies, 12k fireclaws and over 7k life. Still viable.
