I dont understand why War Scepter, and not Caddie. Both have same dura, same speed, just caddie needs some dex and it deals more dmg ^^


btw, GOZU GUIDE going to add it to favorites to keep it for evar!

Because weapon damage does not dictate kick damage. Boot 'Kick' damage does.

This is the best,most fun 'sin build ever! I've done dozens of 'sins of all kinds,since 1.07,and hands down this is the best all around killer of any..I'm on my 4th build now,having made one each of last 3 seasons,and I'll be doing another next season as well.Thanks for the guide,I'll keep recommending it to anyone I can..btw I've tried improving on it with several different items,but the items suggested in the guide work the best so far..Try it,love it,kill everything!!! ;)

OK I just farmed jsp for the gear for this build and got it to 76 (min level to wear all recommended gear). I still need to do skill/stat quests and anya resist quests.

After looking over the gear and reading over the guide I have some questions and concerns to clear up my confusion.

For starts I just want to say that I made this with full intentions to farm uber trist.

1. You say that this is a great uber farmer. You specify in the guide to use LW/Sanct in UT. Confused as why you get a rift scepter, nightwings, and cold faceted shield if you're not even using the cold damage in UT?
2. This question goes along with #1. Since in UT you do not use your rift scepter would it be smart to switch helms to something along the lines of Shako/Guillame's Face/COA when doing UT?
3. Not really clear as to what this build is made for. I see that it was done by a lot of people on HC. Is it just a solid HC leveler that can uber? Or is it an uber farmer first and foremost?
4. After adding in resists from Anya quests which I need to do I see that using BoS and HHG my resists will not be capped. I assume this means I should just aim for 5res scs? Is that accurate to what you did?
5. If I wanted to tweak this build to be melee only..how would you recommend my skill placement? I was thinking 20 DTalon, 20 Venom. Would you reccommend getting Phoenix Strike to coincide with the cold damage setup? Or Blades of Ice? Is Tiger Strike the better choice for a charge-up?

Thanks for any and all help. This build seems to be a fun and interesting idea and I'd like to tweak it as best as possible to fit my needs. :)

On second thought I kinda liked my oldschool kicksin for ubers a little better and since I'm mostly using this character for just that it seems silly to focus on the ice orb stuff.

I am selling some of my rift gear here if anyone still looking for theirs ESCL: http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=51166244&f=169&o=0#p341752527

make a smiter if you just wanna enter ubers, kill ubers, take organs. does the job much faster and safer with less gear.
if you want a char that can solo through the whole game anywhere, pvm anywhere, farm anywhere, get organs and do other stuff, and with a bit of gear switching take down ubers, then you have this character here. riftsins are meant as efficient overall pvm characters, not just to uber.
