Hey folks,

until now I didnt had much probs with gear upgrades but atm Im kinda stuck.

On 1 hand I could use a bit more LoH/Ls, but only for reflect ones.

But on the other hand, and I thinks this is more important, is some movement speed upgrade.

Atm Im sitting on 12% on feet.
Since there are quite a lot items out there Im trying to find something suiting to not push me below the stats I currently have.

I really think about a tyraels might with 280+ int + maybe some vit.
Could use Inna's pants, but since they are quite expensive this ain't an option yet.
Same with lacuni :(

My budget currently is 30mio gold or 20€ rmah.

Anyone can give me an advice on what to choose or maybe some total other suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

If you was on US server I would sell you my old lacuni's. Both of my lacuni's I got for less than 2m. But again that was on US server. It sounds weird but lately I've been stacking gold find so I can get more gold to get better upgrades. Maybe, do something similar?

20k life and 400-450 allres are not enough for MP2/3.

Your helm is kind of worthless - the 10% of a TR helm are basically useless if you're sitting at 20k life. You can get a rare helm with more int, plus allres, vit, and maybe even crit. Or you get yourself an Andariel's or Mempo.

I'd second the idea of getting Lacuni's. For chest, look out for a decent Tal Rasha - but later, when you have more money. Since you have a purely physical damage weapon, maybe you can even upgrade your offhand with a Triumvirate for some money; you could get rid of the APoC and switch to a signature spell for Archon downtime or keep the Oculus and switch OH on cooldown.

Sell your belt to a barbarian, you don't need that much strength ;-) You can either get a rare belt with lots of EHP or get a cheap witching hour for huge dps boost. However, even the cheapest are still ~20m and I think you should bump up your ehp first.

Shock Pulse - Living Lightning is an awesome signature spell for Archon downtime in combination with some crit chance and CM.

A good Triumvirate with 6% to at least 2 damage types, some good average damage and max crit should be easy to get for 1-2m, if you're lucky you might even be able to get some int on it. It gives an absolutely insane damage boost if you don't need APoC.

Why should I change over to Shock Pulse? Does it  works better with CM to get off the cd on Archon faster?

Not Shock Pulse in general, but the Living Lightning rune. It just procs like crazy, from all the signature spells it's by far the most useful for getting CM procs (maybe closely followed by Spectral Blades, though I haven't tried them out recently; just don't like the spell mechanics).

The best idea for me when I was in the same situation was to go for Inna's Temperance. You get the sockets for Vit ir Int, whatever you need most of but you also get the movement speed, crit chance and the attack speed. Huge gains in DPS and you can find them in your price range.

Hey guys. Thanks a lot for your input.
I've tried Shock Pulse last night and it's freaking awesome. The proccs do much better work with CM. Pew pew and archon is ready again :)

I've upgraded my gear for roughly 30k dps and ~10k more hp and 80 all res (not much but Im at ~700 all now and close to 950 with archon). Inna's temp is the next upgrade on my list.

Btw anyone know how to update the battle net profile? I've killed diablo some weeks ago on inferno and it's still not up to date and the gear upgrades don't show up either-
