Hi fellas,

I’ve got some questions regarding gear - I am currently collecting PVP stuff and want to try it but I have never done it before - in the same time I will just run with her p8 online games to farm/lvling up and do not feel like changing gear all the time. So - yes - there will be fancy geared PvM javazon around who would like to be effective.
What i thought is that I can reach some crazy ias breakpoint to toss these sticks like machine gun.
The question is if there is any room for improvement?

Javelin: Matriarchal 6/40 sticks

Should I swap these for 4/40 with some mana leech or %ed on them?

Shield: JMOD max block

This is tricky. Should i go 4x facets or 2x 15ias/15@ + 2x 15ias/3maek jewels? Or full 4x 15ias/3maek?

Head: Griffon jeweled with 15ias/15@

Should i go facet here? Or maybe some fancy fcr/frw coronet instead of griffs?

Hands: classic blue 3/20

Dont know what I should aim here - 2/20 MAEK gloves or KB gloves?

Rings: SoJ + raven

Again tricky part - i truly hate wearing raven as this is for cannot be frozen mostly. Should I swap this for some fancy dual leech / maek / all res / fcr turbo expensive yellow ring? I would love to but dont know if this js possible.

Boots: war travs
Chest: enigma
Amu: highlord
Charms: skillers with 12%fhr + 20life/11light res sc’s

I would really appreciate your help here as I am planning to reach 99 first time ever here and smash you on PVP fields one day

Cheers!!!

So are you planning to use the same build for pvm and pvp? If so you will be making compromises on both. You’re better off with 2 seperate setups and for pvp you’d usually want multiple setups for different matchups abd situations

Thank you for answer! The Point is i dont want to go titans/phoenix. Got bored. Plan is to go pvp oriented gear into pvm. Thought there is 2nd ias breakpoint (more than 95) to reach having jeweled jmod with 15ias/3maek so I can have „phoenix like” mana recharge and still hit like a truck.
I am asking for build around 6/40 javs + JMOD with some jewels - what to put on head, gloves, rings etc.

Maybe I should invest in some 4/40 javs with ED, eth rep, mana leech?

This PvP guide was written for d2lod but it should still be relevant for d2r: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=69488398

Btw jmod is useless for both pvm and PvP

6/40 or 2ama/2java/40ias/high ed/adds javs + stormshield 15ias/15@
Cta + spirit
Griffon 'cham'
2java/20ias/kb gloves
Arach
2ama/20fcr/@/adds ammu
10fcr/nice adds Ring (for pvm this need ll and ml) so you need 2.
Wisp / raven / dwarf / carrions
Shadow dancers
Enigma bp

Torch
Annie
10 x life/5@
9 x java lifers

Stash:
Metamorphis helm
Beast
(Become bear with beast, slam a monster as bear with Metamorphis on and get mark off the bear, grant you 25eias and 20% dr)

Now breakpoints are easy met. You reach max ias break and have to much dr incase you want to rock a 4 facet shield, the spirit or a pheonix or a swordback shield.

So stash those shields too.
Also stash infernostrides
Also stash nice multistack boots
And a faith mb 15/3/2 if u want some bow stuff as well.
