the funny thing about this build is that its helm and shield what actually hits :)

you can walk literally with empty hand and hit monsters for like 20-7k listed dmg + -150res from conva :bonk:

I would switch amulet to 2/20 and soe to arach for a 75 fcr tele on swap. Why do you not tele on spirit side? You should also learn map patterns. I would also use a different ring since you already have 85 light res and a conviction that override souls or at least use the charges of wisp. I don't know if you used highlord for ias or deadly strike, but that could become your weapon socket if you change it. A Perfect skull could be cheap to try since you seemed to run out of mana a lot and redemption is slow

2/20 is very rare and expensive, soe is needed for dr, +1 cast frame is not so crucial on such character

i actually do :unsure: sometimes its just annoying to use swap key

i have scuffed wsk2 a bit, yes

but hey, teach me about wsk3 pattern

again, ring slot is not crucial... what can i get? 100ar? few str/dex points? just meh

wisp is an extra protection against souls + some mf

whatever summoned from wisp is dying from everything, just another waste of time/money

what i do not know about my own character? :unsure: i only run out of mana when im teleing and for that case i have mana pots... :wacko:

"redemption is slow" what kind of argument is that? im totally fine with redemption

and if its "slow" why do you suggest it for standard hammerdin with reapers then?



thanks for your criticism though :hug:

With my proposed changes you would get 2 more frames and 3-4 more frames when you're too lazy to swap key.
There's no wsk3 pattern but you probably already know
You could get fcr for laziness of swap key, dual leech for your laziness of drinking pots (as portrayed in your video), life with dwarf. Anything that's more useful than what you have now. But I do agree that it's not crucial.
I'm only giving you advice that woul dhelp the playstyle I've seen from your video and I believe I have never suggested redemption for a reaper hammerdin. I only suggest phoenix on swap to javazons that don't want to get rid of it.

I would go for a vex rune for mana leech. I can't stand your mana being SO low so many times. If you are happy with your mana, sock a ber rune to be 1 second faster killing baal. You got enough ar with self conviction so i think gul is overkill. I like the weapon choice, i will try it in my conviction pala for sure :thumbsup:

Very cool build, I've played a few Dream/Conviction zealots but somehow didn't think to go Enigma + A1 merc. Looks hella fun!

Gul is an interesting choice for weapon socket, considering how much defense Conviction removes from everything!

I'll throw in my vote for Vex, too. I guess Facet could work but I'm guessing Conviction is at lvl25 so the damage increase would be negligible?

Another idea is Ohm, and then swap out your Wisp for a nice dual-leecher.

Oh and regarding the weapon choice, yeah I like it, Sanctuary looks like it comes in handy for CS.

thanks for your positive feedbacks

i actually have been thinking about lack of mana leech
and decided that i definitely need to give a shot to fcr/leech(mana maybe) ring or vex indeed

about fcr items: if i will lay my hands on decent amu, i will test it as well
but im afraid that gameplay will be less smooth without strings

conva is at lvl27 for -94def
