This is p1 just to show gearing. P8 you can use razortail because you do not need 99fcr. 68fcr with 100% pierce is much stronger in p8 chaos. Have done this like 6969 times.

Javazon melts p8 anywehere

If you want to use titan, you can. Eth Titan is huge physical dmg for leech so mana leech works well.


I was excited, I thought the vid was p8. Can you do a P8 vid?

Im playing solo self found single player on the switch 2 right now and have been since rotw came out. doing a grail

I have 3 sur, 3 Lo, 2 ohm, 2 vex, 1 cham. 1 of every torch.

found soj -> 14/16/10 anni
farmed all the torches

no enigma or infinity of any kind yet
no new jewels yet
no sunders yet

got a 96 lock in horazons + insight

Trying to decide what to do post nerf

Was maybe gonna do Nova sorc (played it before) or javazon (never really played it outside of bnet p1 cows)

would love to see a p8 vid
sucks on single player i have to make some pretty serious decisions

self weild infinity nova sorc which i know melts (but sucks on bosses)
javazon (do i cube 2 bers to make enigma first, or use hustle with infinity in eth mancatcher and hope to find a jah? or do i just use nova sorc scythe infinity when i want to play java??)
seems kinda cooked, with the changes i might have to play a p1 orb/hydra sorc until i get my first sunder. or just use my horazon lock until i find a lightning one

Javazon is better than nova sorc for ssf I would say. Its ranged and single target dmg is insane. Javazon is caster like sorc. It doesnt need much stuff to own the content.

For ssf you can do hybrid too. Bow and javazon.

Bow for light immunes

No need for bow, you can kill immunes even without infinity. Sunder + griffon + thunderstroke do the job up to P5.

Who's not getting the Nerf of the Warlock treatment?? JAVAZON :rofl:

Finished my rotw telebowa set up so moved onto Javazon. Anyone has been running javazon with new stuff? It's pretty good upgrade from pre-rotw era.

99FCR set up on Javazon.

Dual Opal rings are insane for javazon. 10% light dmg from both rings and these actually have mana and life after kill which are actually VERY good for javazons.

One of the older set ups had Jmod + 15ias 3maek making the shield give you 60ias and 12maek. 2 Opal rings with 3maek = 6maek. This enables you to get similar effect of the jmod set up.

And you can put more energy stat to make the mana pool like 800-900 and you are golden.

I got a 2zon 18fcr 8ml amulet to compliment this but tstroke isn't high physical dmg so it doesn't do that much for mana leech. But still it helps.

The build has a few more stuff to test out for best P8 dmg so will update.

This can use either Razortail for more pierce on fury or Highlord to hit 55ias bp. Either will let you hit 68fcr so it's very smooth.

More typical set up tweak on this would be running Highlord + Pheonix. Nothing wrong with that cookie cutter set up.

u have learn nothing buddy

100% pierce and 55 IAS breakpoint are more important than going from 68 to 99 FCR breakpoint.


this is urs first lesson wich u have to learn
urs second lesson is to aim for as much as possible -light res (minimum -40lr)

give us urs opinion after that ;)

u dont have mana problems when u got enough killing speed
no chance to reach enough killing speed with phoenix
if u still think that u got mana problems just try to tele btw 2-3 group of monster and just 1fury them
+skills on javazon are way better cus they give u charges instead of +5 light res ;)
u got mana problems on teleport only when u dont have enough skills on +teleport a tip for ya is to swap to cta/spirit spot (gives u fcr/mana and +3 skills to teleport)
