For my Javazon I have a ethereal fortitude, ethereal andariel's visage with a 15/30. Now I need to get hands on my Infinity.

Was wondering if I should go GPA, GT or Tresher for base? I understand GPA is fastest out of all 3 but I wont hit 75ias anyway with my merc because I only have 35 total (20 from andy, 15 from jewel in andy).

Do I have to go Treachery or is there a way with Fortitude also?

GT and thresher are equally fast. both are -10 bases. gpa is a 0 base ias base.

your setup with GT/thresher gives you 3.84 aps. your setup with GPA gives you 3.57 aps

Is this taking into consideration that I’m using fortitude and not treachery?
Is a swap over to treachery necessary?

And what would you do in my situation

Thanks for the time

treachery with GT/T takes you up to 4.54 aps
treachery with GPA takes you up to 4.16 aps

i'd stick with forti. i only really use treachery on hdins. the low survivability before you proc fade is pretty rough to deal with and imo the as frames you reach without it is good enough

on hdins, onc aura more than makes up for the loss of forti ed
