this thread was previously titled "help wit lv 65 faith zon" now i kno this thread is old when old was young, but i decided to renew my zon.. its gonna be lv 80-85 i decided, so help me out a lil

for gear i will need some help

the gear im definately using

45/120 visage
fortitude fleece
faith mb (lv13 fan)

now my dilemma starts wit the other gear..

Boots: shadow dancers or gores
Gloves: rends or ik glove/belt combo
Belt: dungo's or ik belt/glove combo
ammy/rings: either angel ammy+ring+frost or cats eye+frost+frost or maras/frost/soj
any combination?

as for skills, i have decided to -max GA -52% evade -60% avoid -46% dodge -56% crit strike... now should it be these numbers geared or at a base?

stat wise, how do i make up for the strength and dex for mb and hi req items?

all your input would be appreciated

dont even consider usingshadowdancerslol.

there are boots with 10+ str and dex usethose. they should have 30 frw as well

i would use a gskullconsideringyou dont have knockback

ive never seen a zon use ik soi would stick with nos belt or dungos if u have enough ias and maybe bfist/ passive-ias gloves/ dracs.

Is this zon going to be using any duped items? If you are, raven spiral + rfrost would probably be your best choice.

If your are definately using a 130/45, then using kb gloves is a must. It will help a lot against meele chars.

[Meegz ?]

yes, knockback is all that saves zons for as long as they do live vs barbs. and occasionally paladins, but charge>bowa's so not much of a chance there no matter what.

for boots, there are really only 3 options...waterwalks (15 dex, 60+life), treks (10+str, 10+vita, 20% fhr), or some duped ones (i would use viper tramples or grim spurs for a zon on east, dunno bout west)

gloves are kinda the tossup in my opinion...dracs+giantskull is how i would go, but a 120/45+passive/kb gloves would work just as well probably.

belt...verdungo, almost without a doubt. 30+vita, 10+ dr, and 10% fhr is gonna be damn handy.

and like break said, if your going with dupes, use raven spiral+raven frost (i like rune master too ) and pair it with imp brow or havoc collar. if you arent using dupes, maras+2xravens will be the way to go.

the duped rares we suggest will allow this build to be a very low stat required one...are you going all dex, all vita, or 50/50?

also, if you want to invest a few more in str...i would put a set of nice eth titans and a hel'd or 40/-15 requirement jeweld storm shield on switch, and invest a single point into jab. bow vs bow, you will own any bowazon out there if you get the wep switching down...

guided 2-3 times then switch over and jab them while they are in hit recov from the guideds. or strafe and use the same tactic. i can beat some top bowa zons with 1500+ life using my lvl 1 jab and 157% eth titans on my bowa. and its fun to say "jabba easy'd j00, time for a r/m"

max you crit strike too, btw...should hit ~ 70%

For boots, go with Imp shanks if you can afford it (duped boots)

[ubermoose]

Highlords is a very nice choice too. Especially if you need the ias.

[GT-Pwn]

I use treachery on my faith strafer, adds venom\fade\45ias\fhr, what else can you ask for . Then again, my strafer is built around a 120% ias break point to hit 2 frames on strafe. I would try treachery on your zon, its cheep to make, so you wont waist much.

[Meegz ?]

the only problem with that is the poison damage screws your crit strike from what ive been told. this is why you either see full poison zons or full damage zons. also, if you really wanna spend some $, go for an 08 highlords since it has a bug and deadly strikes most/all of the time.
