For werewolf harb druid i'm rolling life/mana steal jewels.

I've noted a few stats i could go with:
Jewels that have..

+15ias with life, res, or def,
+2 res
+3 res
+2 res and life or def
indestructible with res, life or ias
-req with res, life, ias

Really what i'm asking is, what stats precisely should I be looking for?

I'm only keeping jewels with exactly 2/2 mana/life leach, and i want to maximize my character's potential with the jewels i use. e.g. shark with + 1x indestructible jewel and 4x IAS jewels in broad sword for ias cap. I don't use 2/2 +15 ias jewels if they dont have more good stats, like life or res. In my shield, I use 4x -req jewels because tower/gothic shield. in my head piece i definitely use -req jewels because it requires 1,200str to equip.

thanks for your time

Wolf only benefits from attack speed on his weapon. So if you are using a weapon runeword (and you probably should since 'Lo' fixes all your mana problems forever), go for 15%ias, 2% str & flat life.

For other sockets go for 2%str & flat life but honestly you might as well use lum runes apart from the chest which needs Jahs. Wolf doesn't need life leech because your phys dmg is not that high initially and also you get a ton of life on kill from your passive. Same reason why mana leech sucks - best is to stick to Lo rw sword and throw in a +2 or +3 skill teganze amulet if you need more mana sustain.

Was going with TalXis -- unfortunately I can't cap the ias on the Lo version of xis. Hence why I was thinking of stacking around 40% of mana/life.

Though, I could go flat str like you suggest. haven't tried that.

The wolf does not have a capped attack speed - the more ias you get on your weapon & from skills the faster he will attack (faster than the fastest breakpoints listed on speedcalc).

If you are using tal-xis in ubers where you are killing non-stop, like fauzt & unformed etc Teganze amulet is enough to keep your mana filled. Otherwise there's always Wyand's Fervor SU armour with mana on striking.

Basically what I'm trying to get at is that spending lots of time to craft perfect leech jewels is not worth it for this character.

Is there a secret secret cow level?

[Quirinus]

not yet. but there will be one Soon™

[Pseudorandom]

Is PBR the best place to try and get Uni MOs, if I can't kill him where next?

[suchbalance]

Normal Fauztinville is the best.

Terror fauzt is second best if you need sigs / playing on realm & want emp glory.
