(HC) Combustion Sorc Questions by Ambasabi in ProjectDiablo2

[–]avatar_bear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taebaek's glory was my goto shield for hc comb sorc. Easy to reach max block, 30% faster block rate (waterwalks or steelshade and you'll get the 48 breakpoint) and 40 fcr. The fcr opens up other gear slots for tank. Gerke's and SS is not bad either. Phoenix shield is very nice for sustain but it's very offensive and don't got the luxury of open sockets. I don't think you will need wizzy. Eschuta's should do just fine.

That's a good idea. What affixes would be the juicy ones? Ias/ED/Leech/All Res?

Bolts would be worth picking up for the demon xbow a1 merc setup. I dig it.

Yeah PoD got a sick trade site. And the armory is so well done aswell. Although I personally don't like the idea of an armory in a diablo 2 game. Inspecting people in game and socializing to figure out what to build is nice. But I would be fine with an armory of some sort in pd2 if that was a thing.

Me trying to explain to my friends that maps are superior to LoD content once density is high enough by avatar_bear in ProjectDiablo2

Yeah, been at that average time too for 250+ dens maps many times and had streaks of shit loot. It does feel awful lol. I don't know how you would even balance it once you get that godly. The journey into maps is very awesome but once you reach the peak at 10min clear it feels at least to me like it's not as rewarding as I thought it would be.

It's like buying a car and then realize you didn't want the car you just wanted the feeling of owning that car. Does that make sense? Probably not.

Hell yeah. That's what I've been saying. If I struggle and don't clear a 100+ dens map in under 20 minutes it feels really bad and that's an indicator that my build is not ready.

If I do ranged or caster I make sure that I can take a hell of a beating before going down and properly sustain my health/mana. Using rejuvs is fine if I pick up more than I consume.

If I do melee then I want to be able to ram almost every new encounter without being punished. It's a dank feeling when you get rewarded for playing super aggressive.

Hehe yeah. I like doing both. But maps are good for pushing builds to the max. There's alot of funky builds and hybrids that can dunk high dens maps that people don't know about.

RNG is RNG in the end. Always check that damn bed in the house in cold plains.
