A Median XL guru... a true book of knowledge
1) No, only when slain
2) Correct it includes the base level bonus for the points you invest
3) It hits a large number of times per attack
4) No, only a crafted one
5) There shouldn't be any such synergies
6) Because player damage and monster life were reduced in version 1.0 to forever fix all damage cap issues, changelog for more info
7) You can level above 120, those levels require exponentially more experience. Kabraxis Stones require level 121
8) You can use d2stats I believe, or plugy. Everything found on terror after a4 sanctuary is max ilvl
9) If it has that modifier in the affix pool. For example rare jewels can roll 3 to 10mf, crafting them with the Tir rune recipe means it can roll 6-20.

Doom does not get triggered by all physical damage, only weapon damage (Edit: Unless it's "When enemy is Slain" proc). Shuriken Flurry is a spell, therefore the physical damage is spell based since the skill doesn't add weapon damage. On kill and on striking always requires weapon damage or poison to proc.

Essentially:

On kill - Weapon damage and projectiles or Poison
On striking - Weapon damage including projectiles such as arrows
When Enemy is Slain - Any time you kill an enemy in any fashion, including spells.

The only thing that will proc doom by using shuriken flurry to kill them is Mind Rake, the sssu Blade Talon afaik.

Those were removed previously. Shenk in act 5 drops the mark of infusion, which can be used to make honorifics now.

So I've played Median since 08 version (member oldskool Judge Sin? member oldskool thunder slam-snake stance barb?... member Death Metal proc?)
You get the idea.

My question is about how this differs from Laz MXL, I downloaded the mod but haven't yet switched from 2012 MXL (last Laz edition).
As a single player offline type (I use no exploits or hacks, no plugY, no multires, every character is self found), what do I gain from changing mod?

Hi!
As for Paladin:
- Does Attack Speed affect Vessel of Justice/Retribution?
- Does Faster Cast Rate affect Vessel of Justice/Retribution?

Judge Sin is viable.
In regard to Barb, I recommend you play Deathgaze/Iron spiral-Wolf stance Barb instead.

You got everything just as online players. All realm uniques, runewords, sets and cornerstones of the world are now available on Single Player. Max level is 125.
