i get fucked up

word filter is down. beware of the language :p


i reckon my werebear could stand in the middle of the last 3 waves. but i need mah stormlash. hopefully someone will get sick of my whining and throw one at me :D

anyway i did have something constructive to say but i cant remember it.

ah anyway what did you spend the rest of your javazons points on reborn? charged strike? valk? something or other?

lightning trapsins are supposed to be fairly strong. try one of those :cool:
 
I first maxxed valk and then put the rest into synergies. I had no clue what else to do, as it was already too late for a backup attack...

Well, but it's too hard doing baalruns with her because of the immunes, eh. And I don't like hammerdins. They may kill everything and have high damage, but aiming is difficult and they need to get close to the monsters. I break the 124% fc breakpoint with 8k damage, but my javazon still kills much faster. However, if I rebuild her, I have to put less points into synergies for the backup attack. I suppose it wouldn't mean much to LF, BUT to CS... I could try a trapsin and that would probably be fun, because I have no clue about assasins yet. But I doubt they could kill well. Ok I have no clue, but I can get up to +12 to traps or something and my LS damage would be 1-6k then. 10 shots, 5 traps. 1-300k total damage. Dunno. She would also have such a great tank with the SM.

your maths on the traps is wrong. the min dmg would go up too. but ah well.
dunno just pick something and try it out. if you like the zon go with her or make a new one with say strafe as a backup. i dont know
 
Yeh. I don't know, either. I would like a trapsin, but I have no clue if that would be enough. A new javazon would be the second posssibility...

lol, it was a damn nice idea, but it fails due to some reasons: I thought about taking my lvl 91 javazon. She's a pindle runner, but I gave her my best equip like the facetted griffon's + facetted vipermagi. She really rules down the minions in no time at p8, but the problem is that she's focused on lightning. Actually noone of baal's minions is LI (I had only 1 time bartuc LI), but the souls are the problem. If they are in the wsk lvl 2 or 3, I run past them anyway, but if they're in the throne of destruction, I have to abort the run, because of no good method against them. Jabbing doesn't really work.... Damn, that was a nice idea, eh? ^^ I could redo one with poisonjavelin backup or something. Dunno.

I would suggest to use a wand of Lower resists on switch. Thier immunity is 100 only, thus breakable, then your facets and Griffon do they work and they will go down quickly. I have magic find equip on my 90 lvl CS/LF javazon and it's the fastest way to kill them even if I have no other -resistance sources like you. (They have 90% physical resistance - that's why the jab doesn't really work. And they have 115% poison resistance, so PJ is for nothing.)

Yea, i noticed that to. i can even say poop!
And a trapsin would be nice, i have a matted one, but there not the fastest SP baal runners. But hakai got a 99 on bnet with a trapsin, so its 1 of the few builds that have been proven to have the power to get to lvl 99.
 
I still have no clue and I am very undecided! ^^ :o)

Currently patting my bonemage, then matting my multizon and then doing all quests (like nihlatak) and receiving all wp's with my chars (all pat/mat then). :rolleyes:
 
Reborn

Why not a DTail/Trapper? The devastating power of the trapasin, among with some melee fun. I've gathered you don't like trading much, but consider trading for some plain skillers for the build you chose. For most builds they help a lot. And Reaper's Toll mercenaries are really evil against willowisps.

And take your time and try out interesting builds, personally I've tried 11 to find my baalrunner and I limited myself to melee builds. And I still get tempted of new ideas.

Until I will have tested enough builds and found a baalrunner, you will all be lvl 99! :eek:
Try a punching necro with weaken as your main curse. i here there very overpowered and take baal down within 30 seconds on P8 hell!
 
i have a javazon ive been working on. shes pretty fun. stupid NM cows have no hope. might use her until i find a stormlash
 
You do realise if your looking for a specific item (can be any, from cracked sash to tyraels might) you will never find it. Its only when you sell your soul to the devil in exchange for 1, that within the next week, 4 drop.
 
So... what do you expect me to do now? I'm not allowed to give up (corax ^^), but obviously I haven't tried enough builds and I'm too choosy. And I'm nub. ^^
 
hey reborn give us a run down of what charactars youve enjoyed playing. like your entire d2 career worth. do it
 
Just say any builds youve played with that you enjoyed, or any that you really want to play. dont worry about how good it is at brutally killing baal yet.
 
You are strange. However. I will try to list most of my characters I ever played. Yes: (somehow chronological lolololol)

1.09

-Tasmana, Orb/FW/TS sorc (SP): Was my first char ever, no clue, figured that FW was great, a friend said FO would rule, so I skilled that, too, and so on; never made it through act 1 hell
-Baltur, a barb (SP): Another planless struggle, made it at least to act 2 NM, used primarily WW and conc with a full sigons set, I was very proud of
-Xhar, summoner/bone hybrid (SP): made it only to act 5 norm, but back in the day it was possible with a pointless skill plan and crappy equipment
-Tasmana, meteorb (SP): another sorc, because I liked them, build more carefully. She is at lvl 91 atm, running cows with D2Addict sometimes. Maybe want to work on her further... (99? ^^)
-Sigmar, fanatic zealot (SP): Was quite funny, but I hadn't that good equipment, made it to act 4 nm, then 1.10 came out

-Charactername, fanatic zealot (BNET, don't remember name ^^): dunno about this one, may have been created even before I played SP, I was just rushed through the game and then cowed up, had no clue about anything and got a schaeffers and such items from a friend, but had no clue, *g*

1.10

-ComManse, meteorb sorc (BNET): typical bnet rushed char, and after it didn't turn out well in hell full baalruns, I started the next char -->
-ComManse_Ice, Blizzard sorc (BNET): Was pretty pwning, but after some baalruns I started the next char -->
-ComPanne, Fire elemental druid (BNET): didn't turn out too well, because they are a little underpowered and I had not that good gear

after this I found the SPF and moved entirely to SP!

-Thor, frenzy barb (SP): completely untwinked, but lots of fun, my first real melee build, but I didn't have good weapons, even after lots of mfing. he finished the game and still sits on his 2 razor's edges
-Viktor, hammerdin (SP): I liked the idea of a hammerdin and found it really cool, but after I finished the game it became boring really fast and I degraded him to my main mfer. He mostly ran mephisto and a few times the pit/tunnels and baal.
-Kanthor, bonemage (SP): Not patted yet, currently working on this one. act 5 hell already and pat soon, but I will retire him afterwards. I am quite disappointed about how low the bone spear damage is without the synergy bug, even with pretty good equipment (lvl 32 bonespear) and almost any point thrown into synergies. I enabled revives, to increase the fun, which they did and they are good blockers. I calculated that those few points thrown into summons wouldn't affect my BS damage much...
-Peisistra, LF zon (SP): I wanted to be cool and pwn and so on, but the fun with this one decreased fast, like with my hammerdin and it was bad that I hadn't thought about a way to kill immunes! nevertheless, she's my pindle runner since lvl 83 (lvl 92 currently, highest ever) and has brought me some neat results!
-Kodin, convincing zealot (SP): My first convention build. I liked conviction and because I didn't want to be a normal avenger and like zeal, too, I tried this idea of a german guide. I had the equipment recommended, but the guide said, it wouldn't be a killer machine in high player hell games, like baalruns. I thought with 50% crushing blow it would all be ok. Stupid me!
-Ghea, MS zon (SP): I liked the idea of multishot, already in 1.09. now I made one, but in nightmare act 3 the fun is almost gone......
-Tasmana, Orb/CL sorc (SP): After playing so many sorcs, I found out that these two were my favourite sorc skills. She was pretty fun. That guide of the strategy compendium says, it probably wouldn't be a killer build on p8 baalruns, but I thought with static field it would all be ok. Stupid me!

I don't want to play a sorc! I have enough of them, but they were fun.


^^

Actually, I just got my firewall sorcy to the end of act 3 hell to be a meph runner, and the first run (after doing the quest) he drops her the nice harlequin crest that she so wanted. :D Of course I'll probably have to sell my soul for Tal's armor.
