Vs bowers, unless you have an insane amount of FRW (which I do emphasize insane) you should just ww lock and that will desynch you.

Don't forget to max BO for your level too.
Peace for sure, although you may want to get rare rings/rare ammy so you can pack more mana.

Wrong section btw Razz

i made one of these at lvl 38 with a ton of success, if you're considering going lvl 38 i can fill you in

i guess so, although i would be pretty up there even compared to the lvl 37's cause of shaft i believe?

but yeah fill me in, maybe i'll change my mind !

guillaume with a 30% ed, -req jewel
3 shael eth hone sundan
shaft with a 5 str, 30% ed jewel (5, not 6 str. i'll explain later)
ik gloves/belt/boots
angelic ammy/rings

stash gear: death gloves/belt, sanders, smoke mage plate

smoke gives 50 all res, great for stacking. deaths combo also gives cbf when needed and 15 res if you use both pieces. but then you wont have enough str to use your boots if you take off ik gloves/belt, so you can put on sanders instead. and the 5 str on sanders will also make up for the 5 str in your shaft if you want to put on smoke instead

skills:
max spear mastery
max bo
1 in bc
1 in nat res
1 in increased speed
rest in ww (only 2 left i believe)

make sure you put at least 1 point in ww first though, incase you missed a few skill quests or something

everyone always seems to overlook this but getting the most damage possible is not the most important part of the build. this build can take on any other build besides shielded WW barbs. Instead of maxing spear mastery/ww, i would put more points into increased speed and on top of that wear plus to skills gear (viper, soj, etc). Moving insanely fast is what makes this build successful. dueling bowzons isnt that bad. just wear a winstans/spirit on switch and run/walk towards them depending on whether there are arrows coming at you. when you get close, just switch and ww them. if they are running, just chase them down. you should be faster than every other build.

basically, you can beat any close combat dueler by out ranging them with WW and any ranged dueler by just chasing them down.

you only need angelic ammy and one angelic ring most of the time so you should find yourself a mana/ar/res and whatever else mod ring for extra wws and better stack... and whatever else you need

so viet, are you saying i should get enough dex for max block with whistans?

I i think u are right, so i should focus on getting more frw. good point.

can ppl vouch that 1x mana/stat ring > 2x angelics?

RJD2 · Posted: Sat Mar 08, 2008 10:08 pm Post subject:

also ive had mixed ideas for the skills.

i agree with dmg not being most important, so should i at least max bo?i think that is important

dude waramp, i hace super low mana, using 1x soj, of cours ei have done sill quests for bo, so it's only lvl 8. but still. mana is a bitch huh!

yes, mana was always an issue. but since all i used mine for was embarrassing high levels, i didnt have a problem with having a belt full of mana pots Twisted Evil

max BO for sure, then put maybe ~5 pts into increased speed. then id only do 1 point WW to keep the mana cost down. 1 point into the other passives/BC, and rest into spear mastery. i havnt played in a while but thats about the skill point distribution i did.

use charms to get a ton of life so you can tank/chase people. kind of like a high lvl fury druid.

when i first made the build i used 2 100ish mana rings and a stat/mana amulet. i had tons of mana and could ww as much as i wanted. i eventually changed the jewelery to increase my other stats. i think a skill/stat/resists/etc ammy, soj, stat/ar/mana ring is very good setup. Angelics is good if you find you need the extra AR but 1 should be enough and the other should be a mana ring. If you dont have good jewelery, you can use a ~50mana gc or 2 as temp and it should give you a significant boost in mana. i think 300-400 is a good amount to aim for.

You dont have to get max block with whinstans. i just threw a 9 dex jewel in it. i think i ended up with ~60 some block which was sufficient for me.

upped silks are good to stash if youre looking for a high def armor. just -15 req jewel it and itll req 145 str to use. stash stealth for necs/bowzons. when bvbing or hld pking prechant with a staff. to get hammerdins that spam/camp to play more offensively, carry at least one 2wc throwing item. want more advice?
