Don't use BoS. You will only gain 1 fpa and you will loose massive res. 1 point in fade will be sufficient, +skills will do the rest. Since you already have other source of dr and res, theres no need to put more then 1 point in it.

How much AR do you achieve with this build? Wouldn't angelic rings & amulet be something to consider? Possibly getting a cham'd CoA or cham'd stormshield + angelic rings + amulet.... or ravenfrost + angelic ring + angelic amulet?

13k. Wich is way enough for pvm imo. If you really wanted more AR, metalgrid is an option. I wouldnt use angelics, mainly for the loss of resistance.

If you dont want to do ubers, just drop some resistance. Exemple use a enigma or a fortitude. You can also drop the um on the ss.

iv got one of these, they do VERY well at solo trist, except i used raven/dwarf for the sorb. i know theres not that much fire flyin around in there but it still helps, and the 40 life is nice to. i also went with uped gores over dancers for the cb and ow, i also chose umed shako over gullimns because i thought that 100%cb was slight overkill and it woudl be worth it to have 8%dr 100+ life and mana and 2 skills. i also chose to um my ss instead of ber it because alot of the dmg you are taking is elemental and not physical.

also, this build sucks at everything except for boss killing. i only use it for trist because it is so slow at everything else. so to the guy who wanted to mf with it, dont.

I still think that 2x Raven ­> Raven and dwarf. Also dancers are way better then gores. You dont really need more ow, 25% is enough. Shako is an option but +skills are a bit useless for this build, thats why i prefer guillaume, and the 10% on shako serves nothing, already at max. Also note that in the guide i also recommend uming the ss, not bering it, ber would be a waste, already have max dr.

And yes this is not really suitable chara for mf but it can do general pvm pretty well. Death sentry really clears crowd.

Just wondering, what about Burst Of speed, not mentioned here, essential skill, and means you can use slightl slower weapons.


asides from that, great guide biggrin.gif

Just as response to upper post, max cb = 80% smile.gif

With BoS you will gain 1 fpa and loose massive res and some dr. 1 fpa isnt really necessary for pvm. And since this is mainly a uber character, resistance all the way.

And there is no cap for cb. Direct from Arreat summit :

-It is possible to get up to 100% chance for Crushing Blow. Anything above 100% is discarded.
