Yes

damn gotta farm that bitch, but I guess I will wait until I sort of buy all my gear first. dont want to waste hours farming for that perfect one and I rekt during chaos run.

If you guys use ES..erhh Blood Oath, better use immune pokemon.
There are many physical immune pokemons in act IV and V, and there's also Pit Lord which is immune to poison, cold, fire, in Furnace of Pain.
Throw in a Stormshield for max block, less physical damage + um for resist => it's funny to see barb and javazon in PvP pub (and even Warlock) do absolutely no damage at all, lol!

I just took a break to look into this and saw your post
thanks!

The key question is which demon shuts the fuck up. The constant growling vile mothers do and Hephastos screeching droves me crazy.

Hephasto dies extremely loudly for other people when you leave the game btw lol

/edit nope nevermind testing just contradicted me
/edit2 jeez I had to test each case I got it wrong
gonna update in a sec

So an important question I was asked by and worth exploring was about how TZ affixes stack up and carry over games to create an even more powerful spearwoman
Unfortunately upon testing thoroughly I found that:

• Affixes from terror zones WILL carry over added on top of all normal monsters. So if you bind a trash mob in a cursed terror zone, it will always carry the Cursed affix, even as you join a new game.
  
• Affixes from terror zones WILL NOT carry over onto champion mobs. Unfortunately. You will still get your champion bound and it will display the extra strong/fast/spectral/aura added to it, but it does NOT carry over affixes from TZ like Cursed
  
• Affixes from terror zones WILL NOT carry over onto unique mobs. They will only retain their base list of affixes without including the terror zone ones, plus the added bound ones- so no cursed from a cursed TZ

So you cannot create a cursed berserker/fanatic spearwoman.
Oh well, was definitely worth testing

Notably this does mean you can create a cursed pain worm or vile child pretty easily if you just get a cursed terror zone with vile mothers / defilers and keep binding the spawns until you get the aura you want. Won't roll any other extra affixes like enchantments but for style points a cursed + aura pain worm is pretty legit.

Also this COULD be used to cut down the amount of grinding to find a cursed spearwoman mob which frankly takes an inordinate amount of time
I am not 100% sure on how HP/damage is being calculated and whether the unique % modifiers are only given to base unique mobs or not, same with champions anyway. I'd hope that upgrading normal mobs to uniques includes their bonuses recalculated

but you could create a pretty easy functional high level cursed spearwoman (hopefully gets the +3 so caps at 99) by simply waiting until TZ hits any a5 areas (frigid, frozen river, ancients way, worldstone keep) and then reroll games until it has the Cursed TZ
Then simply teleport through and find any spearwoman, because if it rolls spearwomen for the area you're guaranteed to have trash / minion mobs

The great difficulty of getting the cursed spearwoman unique is that even when you do roll spearwomen for a zone, there's on average ~1.2 unique mobs depending on area and then a low % chance that one would be cursed and another 1/7 chance you get the aura you wanted
But with a cursed TZ and level 20+ bind, any normal spearwoman would become cursed + aura (+strong/fast/spectral). And with many many trash mobs to attempt, you should be able to guarantee the aura you wanted
Of course I'd recommend being judicious about not letting the spearwomen you bind immediately kill all the other candidates lmao



Even if a trash mob indeed isn't getting the level/ed/life bonuses of uniques (we don't know) its still going to be 95% of the power of the optimal one, since it'll still be TZ leveled
Also lastly it seems that there might be differences in single player vs server logic to some bind mechanics. My fetish shamans didn't resurrect as hostile flayers in multiplayer games but they did on single player t_t

Have you tested if its not just a visual bug? I swear at day one I rolled a tz lister in nm tho carried over the curse from cursed tz into hell game. I'm not sure if it was displayed or not. Also does a hefasto have a skill that curses even tho he is not cursed ? My friend had one who didn't display "cursed" but kept amping monsters anyways
