I never post here (but I read), the reason is, I only use items I like, therefore they are not necessarily BIS, which is not good advice..
That said, dear diary:
lvl 95 atm
mang song facet
griffon facet
eni
soj soj
mages
arac
silkweave
2 light 10 fcr 25 str 96 mana
2020t 2020anni 10x 20/17 sunder gheed 7x sk 44l
switch
plague kris, eth phoenix lvl 15 redemption
merc HF
infinity mancatcher
gaze 15ias 15@
guardian angel 15ias 15@
(the point here is that he only stay alive, max speed and no low roll dmg helps him, because main problem is he does not get in so many hits)
105fcr
0 fhr
2 str
rest energy
res: light -100 rest -30
2546 mana
817 life
max static, nova, lm, tk, es to 95, 1 ts, 1 frozen armor (thing here is when you tele stomp, phys hitting monsters only get in max 1 hit before they are dead (ofc also help for merc)), rest warmth
I tele stomp everything (this also helps merc to get in hits and leach before everything is dead) (also souls, or most importantly souls) (absolutely no strategy other vice), only use static on baal and clone.
the life after kill from eni will sustain your life, when life goes down just be faster to next pack, when hard hit with poison and there is no next pack close (ofc you can not tele stomp with 1 life), then hit switch, poison / manaburn is gone and life/mana pool full from cure/redemption (3rd baal wawe hydra, switch, fire absorb from phoenix will heal you).
and you do not need perfect inventory, just got my perfect inventory recently, before that I played with 400 life no problem (and 8 open slots in inventory).
yes sometimes you die if you hit the wrong combination pack, or take a max hit from souls, but this is not HC who cares if you die (this is not once each day, I now trye go lvl 99 so we see)
I have full ren in belt, but never use actually, when I first stomp a bad pack I am normally too late =)
cta? o dear, I tried it, I dont understand how ppl dont get insane from casting bo and potting..
no I have never try self wield infinity, but I had a friend in lod many years ago who did, in the time when ppl actually used escutas, so I know it is good.
I mainly solo, so I dont know how good or bad this is in p8..
sometimes merc dies, not always I notice he is gone, so dmg is ok.
and to piss off even more ppl, until recently I did not even have 105fcr, I made a test (long time ago), tp all the way across frigid highlands, difference is like 4 seconds, so then the question is do you actually play that fast to benefit from it, if you compromise killspeed, buying pots or whatever, if using frostburn or even dracula makes survive better, then it is possible this even makes you faster then 105fcr build only reaching the 63fcr bp, for sorc 105fcr is 3,125 casts / second, 63fcr is 2,778 cast / second, why dont ppl also advice using a 6400 dpi mouse? I do understand that good pvp players and bots will benefit from max fcr, in theory everyone will, depends on the price in total playtime (pvm), and do you actually play that fast? I do advice max fcr, hope you get the point..
as said this is probably not good advice, but wtf play what works for you, and you have fun with..
Love this all , thanks for your input especially because you usually refrain from giving it ;-)
All the more reasons I have to first try the self yield infinity with enigma as it is the build I feel the most attracted to.
Will most likely one day try the Mang" Song too :-D
