can you restore restitution uniques that have been corrupted?

1% hp per point vs. 0.5% hp per point

I blatantly misread the stats on that.

Why can't I put point in Pinnacle (Assassin)? It's red

Bone Cimes bases its bonus on your offense bonus against Undead and Deamons right? The same charm on a character with full gear and on mule gives 18% cold and poison damage. So how does it work?

It doesn't give you 18% spell damage, it gives you 18% of your total damage to undead and demons as spell damage. The charm does not tell you how much it's currently adding.

You cannot corrupt a runeword made in a tier 1-4 base, only a sacred base.

Cascade does not benefit from spell damage. Tooltip and page 1 of the character sheet lie and include spell damage on any elemental damage you do, but it doesn't actually work.

Do you have 1 point in everything else in the tree?

Yes.

Speedcalc is accurate for attack, cast, and hit recovery.
For block speed, look at dagger or javelin.

Question about witch fight here. Why the fawk is it so hard ?

I can do Uldyssian, Void, Invasion 3, Teganze's spirit boss and run Scosglen at a decent pace. I have around 150% fire pierce on my fire sorceress.

I deal so little damage to her. That thing is a lvl 125 boss, shouldn't give me that many issues. I feel like I'm missing something here. It just keeps on healing, didn't actually figure exactly how. I know that hp is vital and magic resistance is pointless. My hp is kinda low, but real issue is damage, I don't die if I don't play stupidly.

Perhaps slowing her will help increase taken damage between her teleports ? Even there, I have a fire caster sorceress. I have a wyrd ring. I could try adding slow with wyrd with a switch weapon maybe. Any pointers for this fight ?

1) Thanks for the explanation. now I understand.
2) My both rune words are sacred. Helgrotha and Venefica

I did a few pieces of RW because I changed the whole setup and none of it could be corrupted. Maybe Oil forgot the nave that gives 10% spell damage, or if an item is upg, some blockage occurs. When thrown into the cube together with the shard, the items only change places.

Are these SP or nonladder runewords? When were they created? If they were imported from 2.1 or 2.0, they won't work - but you might be able to unsocket & remake them because of the specific way that was implemented.

Also, just to double check, you're using an entire crystal (5 shards), not just a single shard?

SP. Made a long time ago. The rest of the corrupt items work properly. I found them long time ago.

I thought that it will not be possible to unfold RW and some parts.
