gear-
ebotd war pike
shako p topaz
highlord
pheonix
enigma
gore rider
2x 10% fcr ring or 2x soj
arach belt
trang gloves

The issue im having with this build is very low FCR. ive experimented with swapping some gear around, i also have a decent eth CV inisght i put on with spirit shield and get better fcr but i like the ebotd for the life regen.

My question is where can i start better optimizng my gear to still get decent MF% but also ok FCR. I considered selling the pheonix to fund a bunch of elrich GC's.

Would love any feedback or advice.

My end goal is to be able to farm TZ's faster. not sure what the perfect mix of survivability, MF and FCR is.

Thank you in advance!

Just use eth insight. Then you can keep phoenix and shako and have fcr. Can even swap those fcr rings for mf rings or SOJ etc... sell Ebotd and get a pride for your might merc.

Don't knock insight until you try it. It's basically best in slot, especially considering affordability and it's not close.

Make sure to pump blood oath so you take less damage. Use Hex siphon and your health/mana problems are gone.

I have no torch no skill GCs on my single player warlock. Have never even come close to loosing more than half of my health. Can farm P8 tier 5 heralds all day very safe. Merc dies sometimes but that's it.

Insight isn't even top 5 weapons. no skills, dmg and crit not so important.

Arioc's is best.

then i would use mephisto's book, 2 skills 5 fc amulet. 85% DS with gores and 75 fcr.

hex siphon is useless too.

can farm p8 very safe stricly means nothing since the build is too strong atm.

That's the point^^

Can farm P8 easily with most anything. Just get 75fcr minimum with some way of mana/life sustain and go. Get your warlock to 99 now because it probably won't be this easy next season.

would Ebotd and meph work well then? also thanks for all the replies.

I don't see any advantage with botd over the others options, other than having dual leech.

if you have the same dmg with a weapon that also offers + skills, it's a net gain for your sigil/demons skills etc.



Yeah thats why some use forti weapon with 2/20fc circlet for 125fc

Ondals is nice for pvm, obsession is nice too.
20fcr helm
Highlord
Gores
10fcr ring and soj is what i use
Arach
Magefists
Enigma
I use spirit shield atm, whatever i had on mules, but ur phoenix is nice.

Obsession = 65fcr?
Arach 85
Diadem 105
2 x fcr rings 125
Phoenix
Eni
Gores
Hl

Should be a good setup.

Problem with Obsession is it's chance to cast weaken which overrides amp

On struck, 24% chance.
Use thorns aura cursed demon and amp happens every 0,5 seconds. Even each teleport.
Bramble on merc is also nice if you want that fana aura on dempon.

on struck with low def almost no block = always proc
bramble = lose 2 might lvl
thorns aura cursed demon = not easy to get

seriously, obsession is inferior
