Hey guys , i've reinstalled my windows (8.1) and i am not able to put the hotkeys from F1 to F12 as hotkeys from my spells ingame , they still do what they normally do (up or lower volume , mute volume and other crap ) . i now use just letters such as A S D F ... any idea how i can get the "F" keys working ?

I'm sure your KB have "function" (Fn) key. Try to disable it (sometimes pushing it once is enough)

PS: As for totemancer. It's very strong and mobile character since u can teleport around with Bend of shadows skill and totems are really strong. About four totems i prefer 1 cold, 2 fire, 1 lightning totems for usual farming/running around, and 4 cold totems for bosses since it really have no ND like other burning fire on floor. And reanimates are useful. they have a chance to cast "shield" that grants them invul so with any damage byff totem they can cut a percentage of hp with CB or deal rainbow damage. Or both if u go little more focusing on buff totems.

Try to stack a lot of fire resist and just use your skills and try to avoid the MIRV as best as you can.

Try trap rat- he's pretty safe there with multihitting main attack, max block and lols of defence. Or try lazyzon guide by RollsRoyce.

It seems that MIRV 1shot me all the time no matter how much resist. Have no problems with robots but how can I see MIRV coming ? (i don't even know what it is lol)

Computer voice will say 'prepairing MIRV launch'.

MIRV is 3 glowing yellow dots on the ground that have a 4-5 sec (not sure about the time) delay. Then a blast comes up from the sky dealing lethal fire and poison damage in a huge radius around these dots. Neither MIRV, nor machinegun sentries nor mines won't hurt you if you move forward. Basically all those traps works similarly to Dunc barrels. If you stand still or fight in the same combat area for too long, you'll likely be 1-shot in Vizjun. That's why it makes sense in farming Vizjun in a way that you move all around the map all the time, picking jewels on the next lap because monsters respawn all the time in this uberlevel.

Actually I believe MIRV is different from Beacon (even tho they look the same) - it's 50k physical and fire damage per hit so you really need to keep moving when you hear the warning and see the target area and not get hit.

Block is entirely based on dex, correct? So a char could have max block but 0 defense (ecstatic frenzy and such), am I right?
