Subject description: for my 39 bowie
 

+1 zon/89 life

or

+2 passive/15dex/12str/17 all res


NB: this will be a glass cannon, so what the second amulet offers is 27 more points in dex, and thus more dmg. Life or dmg?

The +1skill would add 5%ed to guided arrow. The +"27 dex" would add 27%ed to guided arrow, with the possibility of more critical strike.

ok so hero editor results:

should have about 720 life without the lifer ammy. Im thinking thats good enough, and ill likely invest some into vit to hit 850 or so. Im going to use the passive ammy unless someone can convince me otherwise.

So my zon, with a decidedly average inventory and rings, will look something like this:

850 life
almost 2.2k GA
61% crit
40/50/40 (d/a/e)
850ish jab damage, 3.1k jab ar
1.4k multi dmg, 2.8k multi ar

or i could go pure dex, and have 150 or so more dmg and 130 less life. So i guess this is the question now, anyone care to chime in?

NB: this zon's gear will see many improvements as time passes, and likely a rebuild or two. As my charms improve, i should be able to hit over 850 life without any points in dex, at which point i may decide to go that route on a rebuild.

Why would u even have to consider that? PvP reduction would rape that dmg...you're way better off with the life.

Use the 2nd ammy, and use hero editor to see how many points it would take to bring you up to 850 life and decide from there. I believe it would be quite a few, but it would be up to you to decide if the life you gain would be worth the damage you lose.

Why wouldnt I, 2 hits im dead either way, its not as cut and dry as you might think. 150ish, now its looking closer to 200ish dmg is by no means insignificant. In any event, i said i will likely invest points in vit to hit 850 life. Im just opening the door for other peoples opinions.

yar, that 850 life with no points in vit will be a goal for the eventual rebuild. But as i replace GCs and LCs with SCs it shouldnt be too big an issue.
