I have an a3 mercenary (lightning attack).

Does his attacks benefit from + to all skill?
Does his attack benefit from + %elemental damage and/or +% lightning damage?
Does his attack benefit from the paper damage on the weapon (higher dmg the better) or should I find some item with either skills or % lightning damage?
Lastly, any ideas for a good weapon for a light based merc?

Regards


yes
yes
no
ornate crafted crystal sword (+3 skills, -ELR%, +LSD%), mo with FCR & LSD% and socket Ix runes (to reach superbeast breakpoints)
rest gear also ornate crafts : +skills where possible, -ELR% (up to -135%), +LSD%, socket some (6-7) p.topaz for %energy for EF bonus


Dang it that's nice to know, thanks a bunch.

I've got another question as well.
I was wondering if anybody has experience with the D2Stats 'drop notifier' script and know how to edit it so that it displays a message when ethereal sacred items drops?

I'll be quite tanky as an unholy paladin, so it's just about getting the wave of damage started, I'm going to be far less squishy than your average bow character.


if you're going to do that, switch to
Lavasurge
, but it won't be good. Bloodstar is super weak.

cake's GS will be down probably for a few more weeks and there's only about 2% players from AU+NZ so there probably won't be another GS (unless one of the players provides it)

Is it possible to go back to Bnet Diablo 2 with Median XL Installed Installed? I would like to be able to go back and forth between the two, but when I launch my LoD Launcher, it loads up Median XL

Thanks!

Is there some kind of working tactic to get the Judgement Day upgrade? I'm playing an Iron Spiral Barb with maxblock. I've tried seperating Uldyssian from his mates without success countless times, best I could do get him and one of his mates in a corner. Then I spammed Edyrems on him, I also deactivated Bearstance, so he can kill them faster in order to spawn Malthael/Imperius.

How do I properly seperate Uldyssian? I know there are 2 or 3 Non-Uldy-guys at the start of the tp, it is np trapping THEM. But after that Uldy comes with 1000 mates. I also think there are some guys at the very top of the map, it should be possible to avoid them (somehow).

Even IF I would get Uldy alone, how can I avoid that the other guys jump in again? Permaspam Edyrems on him? Also do I kill Malthael/Imperius instantly if one of them spawns or spare their life until the other one spawns?

I really wish the chance of them spawning would be a little bit higher and instead their life/damage would be much higher. I don't care dying 1000000x times for a cham or have to do some annoying tasks in order to get a charm but this is just pure luck (1%). And yes I'm really salty atm :wall:
