How is it not lower resistance better than amp if the target is immune to physical damage? Only chance is if you carry physical sunder which isn’t required.

You should post videos on how FF is faster than a circlet otherwise you’re full of it. -%5 and 1 fire skill outweighs a breakpoint in FCR?

build what you want. having fun is all that matters.

Yes the build is using both sunders.
It effectively put phys immunes to -5% dr.

You already have 105% fire pen.

Let’s say you fight a mob with 100% dr and 50% fire res :

CE is 50/50 phys/fire.
35 to 60% of the monster hp for both types.
That’s 47.5% avg dmg.
What’s better?

1) amp
-5% dr
-55% fire
Total avg dmg : 123.5% -> 1 CE kills all

2) LR (let’s say its enough for -55%)
No phys dmg
-100% fire
Total dmg : 95% -> needs 2 CE

Using amp is at the very least 2x better than LR in all possible combinations of fire/phys res you can look at.

Btw:
"Named after Nightfish, an SPFer who pioneered the build (and literally wrote the book on it), it uses maxed skeleton warriors (Raise Skeleton), Skeleton Mastery, and Corpse Explosion, with Amplify Damage as the primary curse. The mercenary will be Act II Nightmare (Might), for the extra damage for the skeletons and merc."

If you’re using physical sunder, the extra -5% fire doesn’t make much difference. You teleport faster and cast CE faster with 125 FCR.

Edited my post

Easy to understand that 1 build kills everything with 1 cast
The other needs 2 cast

If you can actually read my original post you wouldn’t be posting this non sense. I already said physical sunder works best with amp.

But you need to show us proof that -5% outweighs 125 FCR. this is like saying I rather use HoZ over spirit for a Hammerdin. What a terrible idea.

You’re wrong half of the time anyways, multiple people have called you out time and time. But you always disappear when someone confronts you.

I don’t disappear. At some point I just ignore noobs like you lol.

Keep casting LR instead of amp XD

The total damage increase by -5% is so small compared to to 1 FCR. Weren’t you the one who claimed that +3 holy shield can spawn in D2r but when asked to show proof you stopped posting.

Casting LR or Amp was the main way to play back in D2lod. Since sunder giving 100% amp, of course there’s only 1 choice. I’m still waiting on you to prove the bolded otherwise. If not, then max FCR beats FF.

It was possible in LoD
D2R was like 1 season old when I explained the logic behind how HS could have a very small chance of rolling back then.
Yes I was wrong back then and admitted it after further researches.
Me being wrong once about a new game where the game files changed doesn’t mean shit anymore, get over it.

Nice attempt to change to a new subject after being completely wrong once more
