because most zons already run -40+res and have infinity so its not even worth it especially with all these sheeps price tags on them. Also -res doesnt work for pvp and most cs zon will pvp and why wouldn't you want a dual purpose sunder? On non ladder %dmg will be much more sought after in the end by far.

Why everyone thinks they need a overpriced -res charm to beat the same damn bosses we been owning for 20 years is beyond me.



Once the enemies resist is below 0 which -40+ res and conviction will do to almost all enemies besides a handful then % damage does more overall then -res will. -res damage lowers its % drastically once enemy is below 0


because i won't use sunder for pvp... its just pvm stuff so i like getting pvm focused gear for pvm.

ok ty ill check it out

was gonna go 4 light facets in jmod monarch but i might just try 15 ias light dmg jewels to hit max bp lolz

griffons i have a 25 29 temp for now ima use instead of selling
pretty gg temp lol


yeah jmod facets was relevant before rotw ancient jewel and renewed sunder.

Now most javazon can get enough -res without facet jmod, so you go for 99fcr for p8 tz farming. 99fcr is much smoother than 68/48fcr because zon fcr bp is garbage.

I see that nobody answered as to WHY -res is actually better than +damage in PvM

due to the way damage calculates in diablo 2

example

i am fighting a monster with 50% lightning resists

i do 100 lightning damage with +50% lightning damage

100 x 1.5 = 150 damage reduced by enemy lightning resist of 50%, 150/2 (-50%), i now deal 75 damage

same case with -50% lightning resist

i do 100 lightning damage, enemies lightning resist is -50% (now 0%), damage reduced by 0%.. i deal 100 damage.

resist is calculated last.

agreed but I run Jmod for -res/dmg boost with 15ias 15res jewel for ias bp of 95 and I always run spirit on swap for bo so if I have long distance I switch to spirit swap for the fast 100 and around chaos or w.e I will jus jav tele on the lower breakpoint and its solid for sure.

I jus sold a 10fcr 6ml 6ll 78mana 24lightres 20fire res for 23 jahs. I know these resists are cold/fire instead but still solid rings. I like the @res mod but mana is so good

I have zero issue with others running other set up. Just letting op know what I liked the best from running different set up. I hate switching for fcr on javazon usually, that's why I prefer 99fcr on main side, that's all.
