Now, I want to ask, has anyone tried Winter Avatar(because I have 2 kriss' and the helm for my barb)?

i've played 3 different builds around it , and they were decent . just decent . the cooldown makes it not reliable as a main attack , because you cannot spam it and benefit much from procs . it is mandatory to be used in pair with something else that either deals passive damage , or some damage over time , or also has a small timer.

examples :
1. sorceress hybrid with minions (ice elementals+blade spirits) . alternate left click to use Winter avatar -> right click to cast 1-pointer Miasma (left click , right click, left click , right click ...) . that way the timer is not affecting you much , as while you wait for using the avatar again , you can place another Miasma under your opponent's feet
2. unholy melee - pair Winter avatar with divine apparition and smaxed grim presence (damage for DA) . same as above , left click -right click alternation . in early game before accessing DA you can make use of grim presence + VoJ and scourges , or VoJ + Sod and skip grim presence (because it disables SoD)
3. summon barb - pair with Spirit Walk

you can do fine with it from the start and up to 120-ish , used from

. After that you must switch to the Kriss + shiverhood helm . Dual frostneedle for the barbarian is debatable , you may also consider using just one , with an

for stats boost and more defence

i haven't tried a holy build , but i believe it can also work well , pair with colosseum , summons and plague

Isn't the cooldown supposed to be removed after a certain oskill level?

unfortunately, no

I can't seem to enter Harem Level 1 after I made the staff.. Jerhyn has walked out, I've talked to everyone, created the staff, talked to everyone again, and it still is saying "I can't." What am I missing here?

What does the quest logs say? Did you try remaking the game?

Talk to Drognan..

Quests say to take staff to Tal's Tomb, find Horazons Journal, kill Summoner, find Tal's Tomb.

I've done both, multiple times.

EDIT: Went back to Lost City to try and said I didn't break the altar although I had the whole staff.. worked after that.

Is there a way to reroll an item as as a rare?

No, unless you count shrinecrafting as rerolling. The only "reroll" you can do, is through Charsi.

guys help plz. "-10 enhanced wpn dmg per 1%..." it reduce my dmg if i have some% crushing blow?

[ChuckNoRis]

yes , that's exacly what it says there . CB is useless anyway . it does not work (anymore) vs bosses and many of your opponents

[smartasss]

Problem is that u end up with like 50% cb with just the charms and maxing Trap rat form. Undead crown is the only fix. Plunderbird would be to op without that drawback.

[ChuckNoRis]

and why would it be OP ? you can craft one with similar damage + a proc, the only benefit you won't have is the extra %DR

[smartasss]

U can get similar dmg but 30%ms 25@ 10pr 10%life.. think not.

[ChuckNoRis]

no , but instead you can get a heavy % dexterity boost by going for an abbandoned craft = more damage = more block / easier to get max block . 50% DR is not that hard to get either , even with early-mid game gear (
