I know azn loves his 2x um or um/Lo fools socket setup and I must say big fan of this aswell. I was curious though good friend with a gg hybrid has been using a um/nef setup on a stashed fools. He likes this kb alot ne1 have opinions on this?

KB messes up a paladins synch and it has a nice stun effect.

But I've found in game that the ED and phys dmg really doesn't do much. Perhaps its better to just bleed the opponent by massive OW and venom (which we have both of in plenty amount)

And also, the fools is I find almost an invaluable claw. I can't seem to duel most chars without it cuz many of the chars these days go for max block or what not. Besides, without the fools mod, I find that the AR is very pitiful :/


Physical damage plays a big role on WWsins. Ignoring physical damage is an outdated and inferior way to play.

aye, still for my build, I need the 2 sin skills. helps get max block as well as gg for casting venom and fade etc. I already gave a 285%ed fools runic 30ias. The one with 2/2 is 35%ed not much but I find that the extra 1k trap dmg,more skill points for synergys, clawblock being easier to hit 60% etc. from a 2/2 is more helpful than 500-700 physical dmg, (due to the amount DR I see, it just doesn't help a lot). Ofc I'm going to try to find a high ed fools in the future with 2sin skill if possbile, and I am still going to use fury occasionally, but still my question remains:

Does fools work just as well on secondary claw as well as primary?
and if so is it worth having to sacrificing trap dmg for the fools to be primary.


If you really want trap damage more then go ahead and use it.

one other question for you guys before I go a reroll my hybrid now that I know the build better. Opinions on coa, I have one friend who swears by it but it's seems unnecessary to me my circ is def on the weaker side but it seems shako can make up for this when I need that extra dr.

Ugh I hate the CoA/Shako build.
Circlet/maras or circlet/highlords gives you so many more options.

coa is gay. the whole point of a circlet is to free up the ammy slot for either a shide or a highlords (both of which are better than coa build). try to stay away from coa if possible, its not THAT hard to find a decent circlet and to use a coa you would require a good 2sin/fcr ammy anyways.... which can be quite costly. so you might as well go with a circlet

shako is decent vs like ghost sins if you have gclaws because you can practically out hit them already. throw on the traps and its almost a guaranteed win (considering you dont play stupid) but i use circlet once in a while vs a smart ghost who knows how to play in and out well. honestly.... every char build i write up has gear swaps for pretty much every situation. so just use common sense and use what when its need
