Hey there, I recently finished (and can farm quite easily) Act 2 of Inferno. However, when I entered Act 3 I was essentially facerolled by regular mobs, so I updated a few gear pieces and would like some opinions of where to go from here.
Stats: With Blazing Wrath, Mantra of Evasion (Passive, not active), No Lightning Flash Dodge Bonus.
Build:
Yes, it is a Dual Wield build but I do have a 20% Block (4706 top end amount), 96 Dex, 77 Res All Shield available.
Any feedback is appreciated, thanks!
I would definitely change to a shield, I have over 11k Armour most of the time.
Only thing I have to watch out for are Molten or Arcane Enchanted. I have way less life on hit.
What items give LoH? I'm a barb doing the same thing right now and all I need is LoH (as of right now I have 0) but I don't have billions of gold to spend. I know that rings and ammys do, anything else that I should keep aware of? Anything that would be relatively cheap..
Also, what's your average LoH per item? Is 100 LoH good or should it be higher?
So far, it looks like I need to swap to a shield which is okay because my 1h is 912 LOH which should be enough. It may drop my Attack speed to 1.82 but from the suggestions that seems okay. I will also swap to DR with Keen Eye, that seems like a no brainer for survivability (or the Thunderclap/Foresight combo). There are a few pieces that have high resistance but no vitality, I should probably move some stats around to boost my HP above 40-42k.
Thanks for all the great suggestions/comments!
@Danagosh: My only LOH pieces are my weapons, a 6xx and a 9xx.
@Suiram25: Do you think Thunderclap/Foresight is stronger than Keen Eye/Fire Ally?
@RoccoDOit: Thanks for the backlash/resolve info, I've used MoC with Submission for that passive but I will try that.
@KalikooJack: Finding a Higher DPS weapon with 9xx LOH is pretty difficult! :|
I swapped to Thunderclap/Foresight with Backlash and Resolve build wise, threw on my shield and boosted to 37.4k HP (No Ally) and was able to do my first pack of Act 3 Elites (Plagued/Nightmarish/Fast/Teleporter) with relative ease, and would've one shot them had I not been lagging horribly.
@Suiram25: I'm surprised you don't run with Breath of Heaven!
@Martini: I'm experimenting with Resolve and MoE Backlash right now, but Firestorm may be better for ranged targets.
