Hi,

Just wondering if its really worth using magic resist vs a necro, I have a few 9-10% magic resist shields ive been making, rest of the mods havent been too great so far. 10% is the max on a shield so is it worth using this minor resist or better off equipping a better shield for all round mods such as Rhyme or BSoD.

since blocking against necro is useless i can see why u "might as well" make a saftey shield,

but dmg is already cut to 17%, the 10% after that will give no good advantage.

882 magic dmg = 150 pvp dmg
10% res = -15 dmg (its not really much)

remeber that MDR works on MAGIC too! not just fire,cold and light. (and thats before magic res). The spirit shroud can have -11 MDR, a little helpfull too

safety recipes come with 1-2 mdr and the higher mdr mods would most likely make the item req lvl above 29

all in all u could probably get about -50 mdr if u really went all out, but your killing power would just plumet.

3 mdr , 10% MR , 2 socketed, 17% fhr saftety shield would be the best, (should be lvl 26 req)
but its
1) super duper rare
2) not even THAT much of help

you might as well just go for a 3-4 socket shield for more killing power.

Weapons block on the assasin blocks these attacks BTW.

Against my necro? Probably not. A charger might get lucky occasionally but that isn't melee.

Against other necros? Maybe. It wouldn't surprise me really to see a fast-running melee char beat an average lvl 30 necro. But hey, most meleers aren't designed to fight ranged so what's all the complaining about? Use a melee char to fight other melee, and use a ranged char to fight ranged chars.

Of course, in the cc-comp tourney, melee is fighting ranged, but I've been against that personally because it is unfair...but other people on that site have insisted on keeping it every man for himself so to speak so ranged would have to fight melee.

The next tournament that we host (hopefully) will be divided up with ranged being one category and melee being another category.

im all fine and dandy with it being split into two catagories, its the fact that you wanted to enter both. i think if its split into two catagories you should be limited to choosing only 1 to participate in.
