i forgot to get a screenie of it and i'm working from memory but i believe that this is accurate:

2offensive
20fcr
30frw
53mana
and one other minor mod maybe like 1 str or dex nothing memorable

this would be for my hammerdin it would allow me to use frosties over mages. when i swap pcrown for this and mages out for frosties i lose 60 life but gain 200 mana. i also lost ~60 damage on my hammers. anyway one question i have is if this had been 2pcomb what would have my damage been like? the only way i really see this as being hugely different is if i were using vigor at the time of my hammer spamming. the hammers then would be much weaker over the pcrown vigor-spammed hammers, but i dont find myself doing that very often.

my plan was to use pcrown/mages during most (pub) duels then switch to circlet/frosties vs good llders. what do you guys think. this was the last thing i needed really to make another hammerdin that was lld101 legit (no more partizan insight charging on switch) with whom i was going to try to get more life/mana/damage. i'll be sure to post a screenie of the helm when i get home, but for now what's everyone's opinion on this? in any event many thanks to junkiemia for the gift of this circlet.

Its alright, nothing godly imo though. I dont see why a hammerdin need frw on their circlets since charge speed is only affected by skill frw such as vigor. Life and mana is not the best but dmg looks like most standard hdins. 250+ more life and mana and you?re a force to be recon with Wink

If you really want vigor but dont want to stat it to loose some points for more dmg you can always use eth terrahauch ( or how is it spelled? ) wich requires 60str and has +vigor on them.

nah, i'm okay with vigor after this thread

i remade my guy with it and i'm convinced now that it's the right way to go. frw is always good imo. when i'm not charging it gets me around faster...der, i dont really know any better way to put it, lol... this just in; frw makes you run faster...AND WALK TOO. my main sticking point is the fcr and the two offensive; how much difference would it have been if it'd been two combat and how much of a deal it is to lose 60 life and some replen for 200 mana.

Edit: btw the stats pictured in my sig have changed i'll fix that tonight but after getting vigor i lost alittle damage...like 200, but my charge damage is higher now since i pumped vigor over BA.

Edit#2: i'd have probably ~250 more life if i wasnt using insight partizan on switch... wich is the reason for making a new h-din.

i would use mages for fcr so u can spam ya hammers and make a field, wouldnt worry about that stuff, mages regen your mana anyway

Well I see now, you only lose 60 damage, but get a huge bonus in mana, and congrats on doing that math, I failed algebra 1, so they put me in geometry LAWL.

well i always knew i wanted frosties if at all possible b/c i had the suspicion that the more mana would make up for the lack of regen, but until you questioned me i hadnt done the math...speaking of which i took calc in highschool (advanced math) then proceded to drop out of college so my math skills have seriously gone down hill.... in other words if someone wants to check me do so.
