LoLo seems kinda silly
if you go with a crafted amulet, you can put on tgods and still hit the 99 breakpoint

god knows that tgods reduces trap damage by about 75% on its own

it's all about options and preferences by the time you get to this point, I think.

yea but keeping elemental hate on your normal setup is a bit excessive. I think sorb items stay in the stash for me :~)

Why? when you can have both function and sorb in the same item :O

But for all-the-time 'sorb', I prefer psn reduce. :]

:X but against every other character, 2x facets would be better >.<
remember, 2x facets can add between 10% and 54% more damage against 75% resist characters :O

btw my barb has deaths hands, irathas collar, and a jade tan do in his stash :D

That's why I'm tweaking my zon build, people caught on ^^ less life-more phys/50%+ open wounds..

one or both lol, with no way to test effectiveness until I've made the character.


My tele zon circ also came with 50% reduce, I have no interest in half-assed copies ;p, and also wwsins can blow my zon-dick now too.

yeah the point of LoLo pelt isn't for 99bp setups, its for 163.
the setup I used was specific to d2pk and the types of opponents I fought most there so its not something you can easily relate to trying a shaman on east. tgods/circ would work fine, and if you go with 99fcr setup that opens up a whole lot of options with tgods as well.

fire facets are also fine helm socketing.

yes, if I wasn't a cheap bastard who needed to Um my pelts because I can't afford resist scs, I'd definitely double facet a godly rare pelt.

Best setup imo.
