You can synch with as little as like... 50 frw lol.  A good thing to shoot for is 100ish.  150 is outrageous.


then 99% of all old school zvz'er were indeed outrageous.

you don't sync with 50. around 110 is the minimum.

You can synch with 50, ive done it with 60 on my zon, its just not done nearly as much as 150. As i said, wsg helps u synch.

But other than a glass zon, i agree that 150+ frw is killing it. On my glass zons 150+ is necessary because u mostly rely on evasion than tanking. This vita zon however would lose its purpose with that much frw. That much frw = less life. 110 is what i use on this zon, and i manage to hit 3.9k life with stack res and max dr with decent damage and even 7 fpa.

You know what your talking about obv but what I am trying to say is that 150 is def not necessary.

You can synch with alot less frw than that.

non ladder 150 is 100% viable whereas ladder we only have 3frws...i still get 120frw with my charms and 150 with my titans on though.

anyways, i was just going to ask about why faith gmb?

is there anyone out there who can explain the values of the different bows that people use, for example wouldnt it be better for this build to use diamond so we could hit 7 fpa and the less variation in min vs max dmg? might a hydra or great bow be good for any different situations? i was wondering cause some of the best zons have different faiths in their stash for different situations. if someone could explain more in detail that'd be appreciated.

Yes using diamond should almost certainly be better since you reach 7fpa.

No need for great bow or hydra bow because matri or gmb give more dmg with the same break points.

You shouldn't have any issues with GM es fb sorc. The BM ones will stack bmanas and will fill their belt with 16x super mana pots or even full juvs and just tele away and let their mana recover anytime they take dmg.If this is the case then theres not much you can really do. Maybe keep a few extra poison charms around for these morons.

Imo w/o coa better. ^_^
With this build you have similar life than common vita zon. This better in base damred, and fhr (thx for coa&boots). Cons: havnt max block (vs barb/smite/bow?), lower damred with swich, no gore (-dam), you cant use wisp ring (5 max + wisp legit in eu, dno the east rules), havnt +frw with switch... :(


Check this char. Yes, bug belt, but with dungo+better glove w/o ias, and better charms she have similar life.

http://forums.d2jsp.org/index.php?showtopic=20196425&f=103&st=0

and its far from best ama in eu/sc/nl, simple items.

Aaah forgot:
-lol at belt. antidote, thowing? :DDDDDD vs nec and hybsin antidote? :o :D then why dont use tg+wisp vs trap, rising+hotti vs fire sorc, etc.
-nec is the harder enemy vs bowzon. Max block, bone arm, minion stack, if golem hit -frw... No need bm here, mass char adv in nec side. With good equipped max block trapsin can be RLY hard too.
-vs ES sorc use 100%ow sword in switch. ;) cta in inv.

Well thats a different setup, you have a bug belt...thats easy to get lost of ias, res, dr etc. Also you use cta in stash and use titans with a ss, thats great but a complete pain in the butt not to mention prebuffing and switching to titans and ss pisses people off. And your res is only maxed in nightmare. Great for private duels but useless if you want to duel pub games.
