If you want to make a fortress barb with death gaze in cooldown, yes.

Does +%Phys/Magic Damage affect any of the Sorceress melee skills (Wraithsword, Fusillade, Bladestorm, etc)?

[chickenfeeder]

is it just me or the melee chars/build in this version are actually outshining the ranged/caster ones? I mostly enjoy farming chars and am wanting to make a new one but all came to my mind are spiral barb, unholy melee pal, nagi sin,.... I mean rangers havent been getting significant buffs, the best would be stampede barb which I have one already.

So can u guys who have experienced more builds/chars than I have this version suggest me some ranged/safe farming char? Preferably able for fauzt (but not xbow nec) with as little difficulty as possible. Pls list the gears and skills I should use.

Also how about scorpion sin? I think she is the most interesting and closest to 'farmer' but is a little too similar to stampede barb?

check the summoner necro or totem necro guides.. both seem to be really good farmer builds

i can say the summoner isnt having any problem with fautz..at all... dr strangebuff summoner necro in the guide section here..
yeah the title is a dr strangelove movie title homage LOL

actually I want a wdm ranged char, not a summoner, so that I can kill uber bosses. Also dont quite like casters as I have always been very bad at doing things to reach like 700% spell dmg even in the old MXLU days, never figure out how ppl do that so easily, now with the limited MO options I dont think I will ever play any caster char except maybe lightning sorc
summoners are good farmers I know, I in fact like to bring with me a few dozens of familars, however its almost impossible for them to do yshari, kab, astro,.... I'm consider making a bow druid, thanks for ur advice

It only affects the 1st melee hit afaik. So ur dmg in character sheet will still raise significantly while in fact u wont kill things faster.

Guys, any tips for doing Tran Athulua on Destruction ?

I keep dying to that massive arrow procs, i have 60k def, ~50% DR, 90% resists

if have 50% dr and only 60k def I assume u r playing an unholy pal? 60k def on pal is too low, try to get some more. Also arrowside proc is pretty ez to dodge, If u r melee u just hold down ur rmb thus keep moving so it wouldn't hit u, if u r ranger just kill them from afar. farming TA needs good kill speed and mobility not tankiness.

I'm using Treewarden (not including idol of scolsglen, that would be 75%). My dps are pretty shit tbh, only 3k and mostly physical (so i can leech).

Done kabraxis, duncraig, baal, toraja jungle bosses, belial, and khalimgard quite easy but barely reach the first boss in TA. Any suggestion on defense ? I haven't done the last trial for BRC and still looking for Ancient Armor base for Erawan

[ChuckNoRis]

and why would yo go to destruction Tran Athula without doing the BRC first ? you should forget destruction Tran Athula untill your BRC is finished

make the Erawan in any decent sacred armor you find untill you get an ancient armor . you may then unsocket your runeword and remake it in the ancinet armor

also , the %damage reduction cap is 50% so anything more is worthless

That's precisely why I'm asking, there is no change in character sheet when I equip +Phys/Magic rings, for any of the skills I mentioned. +%Phys/Magic Damage has always confused me, I thought it ONLY affected SPELLS, but things like Fusillade is a spell, but also carries weapon damage, so...

BRC is very important for improving defense. I'm not sure if its Tran challenge or Fauztinville that you lack but go ahead and use a lower defense armor for now. For Tran you can definitely switch to

Truce

Truce
Belts
'Jah'
Runeword Level: 80
5% Combat Speeds
Stun Attack
Slows Attacker by 5%
+(172 to 200)% Enhanced Defense
Physical Resist 10%

for some extra defense and dr%, just know that you the "slows attacker" on the belt overrides slow from morph.

Icarus

is very useful in Fauztinville with the 80% frw. If you don't have a sacred shield yet, try to find at least a large shield or better. Roll for high defense and orb some if necessary after that. Find or craft jewels with -requirements to lower the dex to something more manageable.
