2 no question. Str on circ is shit
Unless you have coa setup, strenght in ammu or strenght in circ does not matter. The important thing is that you want to use dual SOP and have enought @ to keep ur res up while wsging into cta side.
It's also highly relevant if you build it for tvt/pubs or 1v1. I prefer build it for 1vX with minimal to none gear change.
Example:
Trangs (30cr)
2 x fcr rings (with 10@)
2/20/30frw/30str/20@/2soc 'chamBer'
2/19/60/20@ ammulet
Bug belt 20@
Shadow dancers or aldur's or crafted/rare.
EoDragon / Enigma
Suicide branch 20life/15@ /// Wiz 40cr/add + Sop
Cta + SOP
Shadows
Torch 20@
Annie 20@
Skillers life
1 skiller fhr
1 sc 5fhr/5@
9 scs 20life/5@
Anya quest: 30@
With this we have:
170@ without anya
200@ with anya
So lets count for anya, = 100 res after hell penatlies, and ur on 85fr/85lr on cta side with 15@ stack.
Setup 2 has 29@ less. That means instead of 100@ in hell, you have 71@. So ur resists are all on 71@. Not even maxed. Not even any help for LO or VEX.
"YES BUT FOR FPK YOU ONLY NEED LR, SO I CAN FIX THAT WITH A SINGLE RES IN 1 or 2 items" Well GL finding pure FPK theese days....
Lets look on STR requirements.
Eni Scarab need 95.
Base 15 + inventory 40 = 55.
Bug belt = 15 more = 70str.
Ur rings can offer a total of 50 if crafted. But you only need 25 which is achievable in rings. So yes the strenght in diadem is "wasted". In fact a perfect crafted ring can carry strenght needs alone if bugbelt.
And since we had 15@ stack the best combination would be: Diadem from nr2 and amulet from nr1.
But then as soon as you meet the TAL sorc ANALNOOB with his -25% or more FR ur fucked unless you add stack via aldur's / hots / infernostrides.
I tried to buy the strenght diadem earlier. But it was for usage with Giant Tresher Fireclaw bear.
