A Median XL guru... a true book of knowledge
Windform is meant to be a single target killer / utility skill - not something you use all the time.

Because it deals direct melee hits and gives a crapton of passive poison damage, if you level it up and pair it with a levelled snake stance + stacked poison spell damage on your gear & 150% poison pierce it will 1 shot any non-poison immune monster in the game.

- this thing seems awesome, but I never hear it mentioned.

Is it good but just not as good as Carsomyr or some of the great runewords? The damage and reanimate alone seem to make it worth a look on a dual wield babr.

this might require far too complicated an answer for the short questions thread but how do you guys efficiently make money and trade for the su's you need on your builds? I feel like once i get to the point in my characters where i cant rely on runewords and crafts that i can deterministically farm for myself i kind of dont know how to best acquire gear. even if its a common SU you have to be lucky enough to find that specific base you need. tips and tricks are mucho appreciated.

edit- i should mention im playing on realm

yeah i am playing tantrum pally/ uhc when i need to and i have all the ubers except

void/laz/zorun tzin/uldyssian/startled witch/marco

i am missing an imperius shield a friend on realm told me that imperius set is good to do most of the harder stuff with UHC. alternatively i could farm for ornate shrines for forever. im also missing a few of the SU pieces from suchbalance tantrumdin guide mainly glor an fainda su gauntlets and klaatu su amulet. not sure if these gears would actually help me over my current setup defeat these last ubers.

thanks!

edit: also missing darkspite su spetum
