probs been said before me but too many pages ....

dont wear coa too much str req, wear 30-120-45

aaaaaaaaand dont waste ar/multi skills maxingthe passives with diminishing returns aka crit and dodges,

just add enoughtill it stops heling then put themin pene and multi for pwnage multishot kills

nuf sed


Tell me, as a vita zon, where do u get ur res and dr from? 12045 definately wont provide it, and with 20 ias gloves, cats eye and coa, i hit 7 fpa with my bow...

and multi is a waste, the mana would be too much, and i hit my target with the 10-12 arrows i have instead of 24. You are probably in the large % of people who think a zon should have titan and ss at all times, so i know u haev shit mana then, meaning u might get 2-4 multi if its maxed with that high of a mana cost. With my low level multi and higher mana cuz of bo, i can easily fire 8-10 multis, probably more, so in the end, im firing more arrows than u. Its also not a main attack... so... its never used except for tvt or killing summons.

What about enigma?

2 skills
saved stats
50% FRW
Teleport (bone prisoners)
8% DR boost


you'll lose a bit of dmg and some res, but for more life and other stats with it, it could work tongue.gif

thoughts?

also mat bow for 7 frame bow speed anyone? but then again dmg might be another issue sleep.gif

Nigma, no... who cares about an extra boost in life if ur damage will go down 1k+ and u lose res. Ur overall life wont go up a lot.

Also, if ur looking for 7 fpa, use diamond faith or shadow faith, thats what i use and it works great. Never use mat faith

never made vitazons before but I guess dmg isn't worth sacrificing for more life I suppose ;p

If zons didnt get about 1000+ dmg (about 20% of a vitazons dmg) from their armor i would say its a great idea. However, the loss in dmg is just not worth a small boost in your life.

Good guide. One of the better I've seen around here. I'm surprised to see that a vitazon can reach over 5k dmg.

I noticed a few flaws but I'm sure this has been covered in the 65 pages of posts (I haven't read).
  • + 1 dex will give you +1% off weapon ED, not +3 max listed damage. This equals to about +0.6dmg min and +3.2 damage max with a high end faith bow (not counting any charms or +damage items like WTs. The total result is truncated, not every single point of dex, so the +0.6 is not +0 in reality.
  • I have a hard time believing necros are a walk in the park. Ok, it's easy for me to be cocky now since I don't play on your realm (I play euro/ladder) but I am confident I would win with my pub necro. (75% block, 43% DR, 9fpc). Even if you scored a max hit (5170 like your screenshot states) + critical strike this would do 711 damage to me. Not even breaking the bone armor. Not being 100% aggressive and not stomping would let me recast my bone armor after every hit.

I used this guide to rebuild my ZvZ ladder ama... but pubs are more fun.

Too funny to have dumb fc cs zons s/e because they can't hit you.

gg guide btw ^^

I stack poison on max block necro's and they are a joke.
