Heyho! Just want to ask a question... i am at work now so i can't look at d3planner.
Isn't frostburn more increase of dps instead of wh?
Love ur streams
A good WH should give slightly more DPS, but frostburns will provide additional crowd control, which isn't entirely necessary for solo.
Good day. If we compare these two items, it almost same damage. Frostburn gives you ~1% more than The Witching Hour but it also makes hard to pull mobs because of 50% chance to freeze (for example closer to conduit pylon etc). That's why I personally prefer The Witching Hour.
Hello, I don't understand, you don't exploit the 6th talent of the armor?
because I see on all your stuffs, the maximum number of items from the same set is 5, so you make an impale set without all the items?
How is it possible? I don't understand
The build is for season 16, in which the season bonus is that everyone automatically gets the ring of royal grandeur effect (sets require 1 less item for the bonus). So you can use 5 set items instead of 6 this season.
Thx for your Builds and for the fast Reply on the other one
I checked some other Impale DHs on the Leaderboard and I've seen a lot between AS & AR and between Bane of the Powerful and Pain Enhancer. Some guys have a lot of AD while playing with Pain Enhancer, others have AS and Pain Enhancer, others just have 2x/3x AS and Bane of the Powerful. I guess it depends a lot on what good Gear pieces you get, but I would like to know which Stats I should aim for in the best case scenario. Could you give some Insights how to decide between AD & AS and why Pain Enhancer over Bane of the Powerful?
For cold rune (Overpenetration) you need Pain Enhancer and Area Damage on your gear. You can also push with Lightning rune (Ricochet)... then we need Bane of the Powerful instead PE and attack speed on our gear.
have you tried dropping all CHC and rocking a Broken Promises?
5 seconds of 100%crit might be worth it
edit: turns out its only 3 seconds and not worth it
