@drmalawi honestly I prefer to run insight merc and clay golem and just forego infinity. Haven’t done it in a while but iirc runtimes were pretty much the same for me, and I HATE remaking insight iron golems :ROFLMAO:. Sick circlets!!
 
This is not an especially rare find but it was still very lucky to roll on the first try and as early as nightmare Act II.

Halfway towards the making of the Blade Of Greater Abjuration!

...and that is even before the jewelry markets of Lower Kurast have come into play...

Now, this allowed Phaet to switch to a new shield and raise his PDR to a respectable total of 42. His health bar rarely moves in this stage of the game.
 
Phaet's Phat gear ATM and planned? I love this kind of stuff!

Planned? Oh yes, he's basically following the template... In everyone's defense New year's Eve was recently so still following the same procedure as last year...

Iron Wolf PDR Build


Paladin

PDR 77 + amulet
3 socket Helm 21
4 socket Armour 28
4 socket Paladin Shield 28

Others

PDR 77 + amulet
3 socket Helm 21
4 socket Armour 28
3 socket Shield 21

Cardinals

PDR 74-96
Socketed circlet of life everlasting 24-39
Armour 28
Socketed chromatic shield of amicae 22-29
6-socket sword with 2 lightning, 2 fire, 1 cold, 1 poison resist jewel

25 resist all at level 75 upon enetering hell. Needs 50-60 resist all from items. Exceptionally good sword can handle it in itself but purple shield is a help. Artisans shield or amicae with 3 sockets and a perfect blade will be better except for the cold and poison resistance.
 
Wouldn't Silence RW be quite a lot better? I mean, with what you can do with a 6 socket merc sword regarding resists?

Yeah, I assume so. The very best would probably be six rare jewels with resistances and hit recovery and life in each...though assembling that sort of loot is probably as likely as stumbling on a Vex rune any time soon...

In either case you would need something else to use for a long time before and through the earlier half of hell or so.


*All spoken from a thoroughly untwinked perspective.
 
Back to D2R and questing with a Fury/Armageddon Werewolf. Having a bit more luck than usual:

That sounds like a fun character! Vex and Jah get you partway to making a 'Phoenix' shield for him 😎

I'm curious to know: How have you divvied up skill points between Shape Shifting and Elemental? Roughly even between Fury/Werewolf/Lycanthropy and Armageddon/synergies, or more of an emphasis on one tree over the other?
 
Check out Liquid Evil's Earth Shifter Druid build or @PhineasB guide. I've actually done two the First Jack followed Liquid Evil's build and the second Lock went with an upped Ribcracker and lowered the synergies for Armageddon.
