more questions

i'm dropping the lacerators, i dont care about bm and thats a lot of stash space
but, cant i also drop the hots?  noku only takes up 1 stash spot, and is there a sorc you've ever NEEDED the 90 res against?
also, what match up's use tgod? im thinking about replacing it with ow/life/res belt for cold/lite stack


For normal sorcs hots really isn't needed but some mb bmana high dr builds can be really hard even with hots (and it takes 1000 years to pk them with ow), though this all depends on the skill of the players as well.

Also Habakkuk, I remember you using the leech setup vs me (me on druid) it did heal a good amount, but didn't stop me from using summons >< I think some kind of drac setup works better if you want to exploit life gain.

Not to mention it also has LAK, so even if you have bad RNG with Life Tap procing, you'll still heal a ridiculous amount on summon kills.

This is true but the standard build is hard pressed to drop 20%ias off gloves
That little bit of time between 8fpa and 7fpa is important for moving when you need to as a druid is stomping

There is a noticable and huge difference in ability to *move out of the way* between 8fpa and 7fpa
You could probably pull it off using Jeweler's of Whale though
Just keep 7fpa, 8fpa won't cut it vs very good druids

optimum setup vs druid on East would imo be :

string of ears
diamond faith of ice ( if this exists oO )
cats eye
giant skull with 2 * 40ed 15 ias jewels
forti
leech ring
raven frost
dracs

40 ias eth matri's and storm on switch

requires bugged itemy to get the job done, but it would be good imo ^^

You can use a setup like this:

gskull (2 40-15)
drac
string
160-60
gmb
highlord
mana/leech ring
trav
raven

Hits 7 fpa, you lose some damage compared to the gm/fort setup normally used, but it would be pretty hard to die LOL.

EDIT:O master osama listed a better setup ^^

Yeah true, you could also use some more 5 frws I guess ^^ sacrifice some life and retain slightly more dps, though tbh difference in setups won't really be noticeable, druid will rage at you 100% huehe

yea good point, with more damage I guess you'd heal more anyway ^^

And well on East I dunno if DuDU will rage man, moreso relish the prospect of trying to run u outtta arrows/mana in marathon duels.

Maybe so, haven't really kept track of all the bugged items, so I dunno which bases they have. I'll never be rich enough to afford them anyway, and the dont appear in priv realms so I dont really plan so many builds with them ^^
