instead of ravenfrosts, couldnt you use dual dwarf stars for more fire absorb?

Salut,
Je voulais juste dire au niveau de l'absorb :
Avec rising sun et lvl 9x (je sais pas trop au lvl 80...) c'est sur que tu absorbe même avec -50 fire res (donc même avec conviction das la gueule).


Tu absorberas même mieux les sorts par frame comme inferno je pense , mais pas les sorts comme fire ball/meteor , et conviction descend aussi tes resistes froid/foudre ^^

wouldn't you be healed more effectively if you had more than 30% fire res...


No , cause absorb is calculated after resistance , then if you have too much resistance you have nothing to absorb .

Just an add, you can buy a wand with life tab charges which is pretty cheap. Wont cost more than 10 mins to find the gold and another 10 mins to find a wand smile.gif

Else nice happy.gif


yes but like i have already said , princip of this build is to use amplify damage instead of life tap ^^

I don't think , cause i had made test with dwarf star at travi hell , and strangely dwarf was blocking absorb : rising sun was healing me a lot , but rising sun + 2 dwarf star -> no healing

And dual raven is good to cancel cold damages

Super guide, je crois que je vais essayé même si j'ai déjà un bon smiter avec du stock "conventionnel" Ça l'air assez plaisant comme ça.

This was basically the build of my first smiter this ladder. No anni, and he used the first torch I found for a while (was a 19/17 sin torch). Every bit of his gear was mf'd, most of it from trav runs with my hdin. I eventually did 50+ organ runs/trist runs with him, dying rarely. He's been rebuilt now with the proceeds from all the torch sales smile.gif

Weapon: Black flail (3os flail, thul io nef, cheap, 40% cb, ias so you don't need any other ias off weapon)
Shield: Rhyme in high res Sacred Targe (cheap and the cbf and extra res is nice, also very high block)
switch: life tap wand (initially was my only source of life tap, later i got dracs)
Armor: Vipermagi (ort)
Helm: Guillaume's (ort)
Ammy: High res all
Gloves: Laying of Hands (high fire res)
Belt: Credendum
Boots: Tearhaunch
Rings: High res (you get cbf from rhyme)

An okay guide, but it can be done cheaper and faster as well

a friend of mine made this video the guide is made by me ( Zlay3r on a danish diablo forum)

notice: you dont need bo, cta, anni or torch though he uses it for pre-übers in the video.

Enter, kill, leave ^^.

Seriously, activate Holy Shield and conviction, run in the middle of Tristram bypassing the first house. When invocations start to spawn, it's won, lock Mephisto with smite ( you can switch conviction to fanatism when he's dead ), then Baal, finally Diablo.
Don't move to much in order to be hit by fireballs, walls, storms and other infernos in the head. 
Your bubble of life plays yo-yo , soon we think we're gonna die, it goes up again, then goes down again, but the God of the Rising Sun is protecting us tongue.gif .


Best quote ever

Brilliant guide tho
