I noted 6699 had mentioned trying to build around the eth runemaster earlier in the thread and I have wondered the same..
I'm trying to check the feasibility of my current build:


As an ethereal runemaster (ERM) has Cannot be Frozen, is there a build with it and two GG stat rings that would be competitive? That bonus to deadly strike, and customization abilities due to the sockets open doors that don't usually open for Fury druids.


The build I am trying has 2 heavy stat/ar/life rings, and a pair of nice heavy stat CB gloves. Highlords,fort, etc. otherwise regular gm melee gearz.

using an eth monarch spirit (146Str), a sexy jeweled-15req SS (133str), makes the remaining str points need to equip my gear laughable....Stat dex to 75%MB, and rest to vita.
This puts me around 480+ points into vitality at lvl 94.


Factors to consider:

I have attempted to mitigate the obvious inability to swap needed gear around, ensuring cerebus,gface,jalals & rare pelt all have enough str and dex (thru ed/stat/x jewels) to ensure max block and enough str to wear my gear.

I understand that I cannot take off the melee rings, or the gloves, due to the build. I'm trying to build around not having to.

This is only GM pvp focused, so not focused on sorb options, smiters, PVM options.


I've made up two P ERM's:

one is ZodLoLo40/15ias 40/15ias
other is ZodLo40/15max x3

I have a few different melee rings to choose from. My thinking was to prioritize stats (25str and 15dex) then life, then ar amount. I'm not sure what order is more beneficial, but my thinking is:
"stat points saved = points into vitality = life"

some ring options

120 Ar/23 Str/15 Dex19 Life
80 Ar/24 Str/15 Dex/47 life
51 Ar/25str/15dex 42 Life


I haven't done extensive testing yet, but curious to see how it stacks up.

Can anyone point out any issues or flaws they see with the build?

Cheers!

The issue is that your hardest opponent arguably is a zealot and u need angelics so good if u wanna use a token or make a wolf for only fury v fury but id still like a 3frame botd setup that i wouldnt qant to use a token everytime i wanna use ravens or rends
