skills are alright, your flaws come from wrong itemization

A Median XL guru... a true book of knowledge
You are running on your screenshot. Running = 0 def. Switch to walking, this might be the biggest issue.

Skills & stats are weird also. Helm, gloves, boots, belt & shield are bad item choices.

Switching to Rolls' setup (although not my favourite) will be better item wise, than what you have on right now.

For skills: 1pt in hoplites and keep them around, they are borderline OP in tankyness without any other support. No more than 5pts rapture. Consider at least 10pts in Slayer for more mind flay aoe. Check if you have reached 50% DR cap with the number of points you have in blessed life.

Currently it says:
Physical Damage Reduction: 38 percent ( so its 38% ?)
Damage Reduced by 252

I didn't read everythin but hoping you're also crafting jewels with 5% lightning spell damage and 3% others. Also 2% to vitality or energy too.

And for the love of God(or Science 8-) ) don't run! :P

Rarely it can reach even 6% spell damage. With tons of jewels socketed this can make difference.

is running really an issue when you use superbeast which cannot really run ?

@suchbalance whats your favorite itemization ofr an uhc ? and why.

Im going with max defensive stats just becdause i can still kill all heroics without any problems but can also easily do ureh/vizjun/witch etc. without respeccing and this is something i really like alot

Tried unholy melee with new found set.

Immediately died because I thought the survivability is good enough.
Turn out that I need the retaliate knockback to lazily survive the game at destruction.

So Im switching back to holy until I found couple uber charms more. Stuck at act 4 atm.
Getting destroyed for no reason...

around 80% all resists, 7.8k hp, about 100k def if im not mistaken

but atm only have 20% dr, might need to find more.

I know I can eventually beat it, but atm i really really lazy to craft stuff.
I rather kill stuff.


Might need some checklist for mid-end gear.
Reading suchbalance's tantrum guide atm, got some good insight on gear despite im not using bow
