Another question: I don't have a Furnace, but I have a decent Maximus. I typically run a 1h SK setup for GRs, but, I was wondering if the top end on maximus might be better on trash for single casts of blizzard while running away. Thoughts?
edit: just tried it myself and it isn't worth it... trash at times was faster but all elites substantially slower. Meh.
I was just going to say... for GRs Maximus is viable, but against elites (where most of your time is spent ..especially the RG, the SK will show its worth there).
For T6, either is fine, elites do not have enough HP to be noticeable.
Have you tried Wreath of Lightning at all? Guess I'm not sure which gem would be worth dropping for it, though!
Wreath of lightning does almost no damage ... Its a minor speed boost when active, you might as well take the Boon of the hoarder gem at least you will get gold and the same similar speed boost.
Thanks! I've been giving Pain Enhancer a whirl. Pretty nifty... If not for the damage boost on Toxin I might use it in GRs too...
